that their sound might be heard when Aaron went in came forth of the tabernacle and upon the Ephod was put a breast-plate of curious work wherein was the names and the Judgements of the people Israel and these things were made for Aaron that he might do the priests office in the holy place and upon the Mitre was put a plate of gold on Aarons forehead wherein was graved Holiness to the Lord And Aaron his sons had consecrated clothes and holy garments as Coates and Breetches other curious ornaments of fine linen and in these they did the service of the Tabernacle before the Lord in offering sacrifices as God had commanded Aaron who was a Levite and the Levites and no man was to take unto himself that honour but he that was called of God as Aaron was Exod. 39.2 31.10 35.10 28.29.12.33.36.42 verses Heb. 5.4 Now in the second Priesthood which Christ is the Minister and lise and beauty of the adorning is within where the covering is of the spirit and the Armour is of the light of the Lord and their Breast-plate is of righteousness and this the children of light are witnesses of who are come to know Christ their high Priest in whom is witnessed Holiness to the Lord in the life and righteousness of God alone which is more then the words of it without Ingraven in gold or silver and their names are written in the book of the life of the Lamb his seal of righteousness being on their fore heads and this shall never be taken from them whose delight is in Holiness and righteousness without which no man shall see the Lord. And the Saints adorning wherein they serve the Lord is not of divers colors as the adorning of the Priests without was for they are clothed in innocency with the robe and Ephod of righteousness and their garments are washed white by the blood of the Lambe of God who have passed through many tribulations who are clothed in white linen which is the righteousness of the Saints And our high Priest is not heard by a company of carnal Bells neither are the Saints brought to their worship by the sound of carnal Bells as the world and its proprosessors are but by the spirit of truth in the inward parts thereby they are brought to hear the voice of God and to worship him in the spirit and in the truth for it is such that he seeks to worship him but wo is unto them who are covered but not with the spirit of the Lord for they are covered with iniquity Eph. 6.

Of the outward washing of of the Priests ANd moreover Aaron and his sons washed their hands and their feet with water at the door of the Tabernacle before they offered offerings to the Lord which was his command to them least that they had died Exod. 30.18 19. But now in the second Covenant and royal Priesthood of God the Saints are washed with living water by the living word of life their feet is shod with the preparation of the Gospel which is the power of God and so made beautiful and their hands are washed in innocency that by the power of God many are come and coming to offer the sacrifice of praise and thanksgiving to the Lord in righteousness that holiness may be known to the Lord in all their wayes within them and without but they whose feet are in the steps and wayes of the ungodly and whose hearts are polluted with unrighteousness and fingers defiled with iniquity cannot offer nor present any sacrifice acceptable to the Lord God but are abominable in all their own righteousness and sin in the best of their performances John 13 3 1 Corinth 6 11. Ephes 5 26. Titus 3.5 Heb. 10.22 Eph. 6 15 Rom. 1 16. Ps 50.23 Isai 1.15 59 3. 14. of meats and drinks and days in the first Priesthood ANd in the first Covenant there was Ordinances made touching meats and drinks as there was also for the keeping of certain dayes holy there were several creatures that were esteemed common and unclean which they might not eat of as the flesh of swine and ravenous birds with several others neither were they to eat the blood of any thing but to keep from blood Levit. 19 26 Deut. 12 22 23. and chap 14. Heb. 9 10. Now in the second Covenant is the holy place and habitation known where there is no curse and purity witnessed in the life and to the pure all things are pure for it was the swinish ravenous cursed nature which the law took hold upon and which the creatures are not clean unto and there were some after Christ was manifest that made their abstaining from some meats a matter of conscience and scrupled the eating of blood as some do at this day and the Apostles for a time suffered some to abstain from blood and things strangled but that is the weak conscience and the defiled minde that scruples meats for Christ bad his eat such things that was set before them And when Peter the Apostle saw the vision of all manner of four footed beasts of the earth and wilde beasts and creeping things and fouls of the Air. And there came a voyce from heaven unto him saying rise Peter kill and eat but Peter said not so Lord for I have never eaten any thing that is common or unclean and the voice spake unto him again the second time what God hath cleansed that call not thou common And the Apostle Paul said whatsoever is sold in the shambles that eat asking no question for conscience sake and he called them seducing spirits that would forbid to marry and command to abstain from meats which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving of them that believe and know the truth so with the light we see an end put to the first Tabernacle and the gifts and sacrifices that were offered in it which could not make perfect as pertaining to the conscience which stood onely in meats and drinks divers washings and carnall Ordinances imposed on them until the time of Reformation but now Christ being come and revealed in whom is the fulness and sum of all he worketh the Reformation in all them that believe in his light and maketh manifest his Kingdom in his people which stands not in meats nor drinks but in joy and peace in the holy Ghost and so let no man Judge you in meats or in drinks or in respect of an holy day or of the new Moon or of the Sabbath dayes which are as shadowes of things to come but the body is of Christ Rev 22 3.

is come wherein he is come to visit thee who will build thee up and restore unto thee thy fermer dignity and renown thee with beauty and Authority that thou maist even be the glory of the Nations and thy King may rule over the whole earth for he is King of Kings and Lord of Lords arise come forth and shew forth thy self thou that hast been as a vine troden under foot and as a desolate widow who long hast been barren since the spoilers and the destroyers had power over thee come forth and see him that visiteth thee and know thy Rock the everlasting Councelor that no longer thou may be desolate nor remain Barren but awake and come forth for thy light is come and a time of love is coming upon thee shake thy self from the dust and let thy oppressors come into the dust and sit in the darkness for now is he come who will spoil the spoiler and deliver the oppressed and will take away and remove the bands of wickedness that the oppressed may enjoy glorious liberty and Redemption out of all snares and incumbrances whatsoever that she that hath mourned in dust and ashes may rejoyce and have beauty for ashes and the garment of praise in stead of heaviness and that she that was desolate may be married unto an husband who is the everlasting Comforter and will be an husband unto the widow that receiveth him who hath waited for him and then the Barren shall bâ—ing forth children rejoyce in her precious fruit which shall increase abundantly and multitudes shall come up to the mountain of the Lords house and walk in the light of the God of Jacob in which light he that waiteth shall see these things brought in the day of the mighty God whose power is gone forth to manifest his saving health in the Nations whosoever will let them come freely and taste of the everlasting light and power of the Almighty who breaths and thirsts after righteousness and salvation whether they be Jewes or Gentiles that they may receive and feel his anointed brought forth who sets open the Treasures of life and mercies to all that do receive him who believe in his light according to his promises O ye Jews ye people who are scattered among the Nations There is a remnant the Lord hath among you even as it were the Corne which is left in the time of harvest for gleaners and as the gleaning grapes which is left for the stranger to gather For though you be many in number and you may professe the Law of Moses and the prophets yet the iniquity is great you are in and you worship an unknown God while you are worshiping in the outward observations and traditions held forth by your predecessors and forefathers and you have not seen felt nor known him whom you worship Jacob is small and how shall he arise among you And the remnant is little that will receive the witnesse and Testimony of the everlasting Covenant Say not you are Abrahams children except ye were in Abrahams faith and the righteousnesse which he was in he heard the voice of God and through faith obeyed him and was accepted yea whose worship stands in outward observations ye have not heard Gods voice nor do ye obey him while your hearts are enranged from the light and the power of the living God many of your forefathers transgressed and break the Covenant that God made with them wherein was the outward Tabernacle Altar Sacrifices and outward ordinances which had a shadow of an everlasting Covenant which God hath in store for the seed of Abraham who come into the faith and Righteousnesse of Abraham And the Israelites forsook the true and living God and followed after the Gods of the heathen and prophaned his name and polluted his Sanctuary through their Idolatry and their abominations So that Gods anger turned against them he turned his countenance from them he gave them over for a pray to the heathen so that they were dispersed and scattered among strangers and their seed came to be mixt with the heathen and so the curse came upon them and their enemies got the preheminence over them for they hated his counsel and break his Covenant and persecuted and slew his prophets and messengers and yet the Lord God did not leave himselfe without a witnesse among them after that they had transgressed For he gave his good spirit to instruct them and yet they temped the Lord wrought grievous provocations against the Lord Nehemiah 9. and the Lord God overthrew and cut many off in his wrath and in their iniquities who tempted him would not hearken unto his words which he spake unto them by his holy prophets nor unto his good spirit which he gave to instruct them But they made their hearts as an Adamant least they should hear the Law the words which the Lord of Hosts hath sent in his spirit by his former prophets Zechariah 7.12 Yea and they set up covetous Priests who were greedy after gain as ravening wolves and they prophane the holy things that were consecrated under the Law For the service of the outward Temple which God comands and even abused the outward things that stood in the shadow by their cursed inventions and in serving strange Gods There was a time when Gods presence and of his vertues was found in the Temple that Solomon builded and in the outward things that he comanded which shadowed forth the heavenly things But when Israel fell into Idolatry and offered incense and sacrifices and built up high places to worship strange Gods in then the Lord forsook them and forsook the Temple and outward things which he had commanded according as he promised Read 2 Kings 18. 2 Cron 7. So when they had gon a whoring after their own inventions and had forsaken the covenant the Testimonies of the Lord God he was wearied with their prayers did not esteem of their sacrifices nor accept of their burnt-offerings nor of their vain oblations but cryed away with them and said the true prophet at that day shall a man looke to his maker and his eyes shall have respect to the holy One of Israel and he shall not looke to the Altars the work of his hands neither shall he respect that which his fingers have made Isai 17. And said the prophet David unto the Lord Thou desirest not sacrâ—ficeâ— else would I give it Thou delightest not in burnt offerings the secrifices of God are a broken spirit a brâ—ken and contrite heart O God thou wilt not dispise Psa 51 Therefore hear O ye Jews and consider these things ye people scattered among the heathen for now I come to witnesse forth the everlasting Covenant of Life and peace unto you which the first covenant that stood in the outward observations and ordinances had the shaâ—ow of And this is the second Covenant which in these latter daies the Lord God of power is bringing to light among

to keep it in remember Judas his end how he hanged himself how he thus fell into disparation and remember that the Angel of the Lord smote them that watched to keep Jesus in the grave or tomb that these watchmen were made to shake for fear and became as dead men and these watchmen who thus watch against the light of Christ which enlighteneth every man that cometh into the world the Lord God will smite them that they will be made to shake and quake for all their filthy crimes one day though now they despise Quaking and despises him that God regardeth who trembleth at his word And remember that Christ he called them graves that appeared not and painted Sepulchres who had gotten the true Prophets words but were out of the Prophets life in the pride and hypocrifie and may we not call these teachers graves now who profefesse the Scriptures to be their rule but are in the pride coverousness and hypocrisie And let people that follow them and seek for help among them note that they are but seeking the living among the dead and are but seeking life among the graves and whited Sepulchres who have gotten the words of the Scripture but the life lies buryed in them and know that that man that kept among the dead mens tombes or graves was not led by the spirit of truth but was possessed with an unclean spirit and is it not an unclean spirit of error that makes so many people keep among these filthy graves and tombes whose out-side is whited with an empty profeshion but their inside is full of rottennesse and ravening Consider these things vee people and Priests It is written in the book of Iohn that many other signs truly did Jesus in the presence of his disciples which are not written in this book but these are written that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ the Son of God that believing ye might have life through his Name Iohn 20.30 31. Also it is written that there are also many other things which Jesus did the which if they should be written every one I suppose that even the world it self could not containe the books that should be written Amen Iohn 21.25 Indeed the whole world lieth in wickednesse and are reproved by the spirit of truth because they believe not in Christ whom the Scripture doth testifie of So that If all things that Christ did and spoke were written the world it self could not contain them for they truly do not contain these things that are already written of Christ for as much as they are ignorant of Christ and his light and many hypocrites had the Prophets words that prophesied of Christ but knew not Christ but persecuted him when he came many there are now who are both ignorant of the power of God and of the Scriptures Neverthelesse the example of Christ is known in his light and by his power which he hath left to be walked after and his steps to be followed who did not sin neither was there guile found in his mouth 1 Pet. 2.21 22. which example comes to be followed and fulfiled in the power of God by such as receive Christ and walk in him who is the wisdome of God and the power of God to him be glory for ever and ever Amen The difference between the first and the second Covenants and between the first and the second Priesthoods plainly described And the end of the things abolished discovered according to the scriptures of truth for their sakes who desire to have the vail taken from off their hearts and to see to the end of the figures and shadowes that were under the first Covenant and Priesthood into the life of the everlasting Priesthood And here they may see who deny Christ come in the flesh and who are strangers to the Covenant of life both among the Jewes and the professors of of the world as followeth c. AS the Law was added because of transgression which all men by nature are guilty of who are aliens and strangers to the righteousnesse of the Law being in the degeneration falen in the first man Adam who is of the earth earthly and no man in that state can fulfill the righteous Law of God nor come into the Bighteousness of the Law without the drawings and assistance of God by his Son Christ who lighteth every man that cometh into the world which light doth answer the Righteous Law of God in every man So Christ Jesus is come to fulfill the Law and he is the end of the Law for Righteousnesse and not that men should say or conceit that they are no more under the law when daâ—ly they do transgress the law but for righteousness is Christ come that the righteousness of the law may be fulfilled in as many as walk not after the flesh but after the spirit And so none knowes any sure freedome from under the Law but who witness in themselves a sure freedom from under the transgression which the law takes hold of and hath power over the transgressors and many did and may seek to attain unto the righteousnesse of the Law but cannot so long as they believe not in Christ who is come a light into the World that whosoever believeth in him might not perish but have everlasting life and to this righteousnesse of the Law in Christ many have desirâ—d to come but never could so long as they stumbled at Christ the true light and believed not in his Light and in this stâ—te was Israel after the flesh when they had the vail over their hearts and stumbled at the stumbling stone which was Christ so that they câ—uld not see into Christ the everlasting salvation of God and the end of things abolished which none sees while the vail is over their hearts and the shadow or earthly part is standing in them which many shadowes without had a resemblance of and the types and figures without which were in the shadow did signifie a greater thing to come and to be manifest which was Christ the end of the figure Types and shadowes that were upheld in the first Covenant and Priesthood for in him dwelleth the fulness of the Godhead the fulnesse of all things And indeed though the Law had a shadow of heavenly things which are known in Christ yet it had not the very image of the heavenly things much lesse could the heavenly things or the fulnesse of Christ be contained or comprehended in the shadowes for they did but shadow or figure forth the life of the heavenly things which are a misterie for ever sealed and hid from that part which is cloudie and elementarie and earthly by which the Types in the first Covenant were upheld But now is the true light manifest and his Righteousness declared that all men through the light may believe and see Christ the everlasting righteousnesse and the salvation of God by whom all the ends of the earth that do look unto God may
