amongst us to make us all New Soul and Body as I was bound to keep any of the Commands of God And again this was confirmed to us when the Lord's Servant came with these Words Behold the man whose name is the BRANCH The Father's Day is come which was hid from Men and Angels I found these things so strong and weighty that I could not dally with them for if I would have said I did not believe he had brought his first begotten again into the World because I did not see him with my bodily Eyes my own Conscience would have condemned me for the Oath of God was writ in my Heart which he had sworn to Philadelphia Time shall be no longer and behold the man whose name is the BRANCH I knew in my Soul that this was the Word of God that the Old Adam's State was finished which could be done only by the coming of the New I must own it in the presence of God that he hedged me up to these things and put me to that blessed streight that I must cry out in the Name of all Philadelphia Be ye lifted up ye everlasting doers and the King of glory shall come in And I Witnessed to them That the Christ of God was not only given to us out of the Father 's own hand in his own season but clossed with and received as he was offered in the Word in sure and certain hopes that as we have born the image of the earthly so now for ever bear we the image of the heavenly Adam I Witness that God writ it with an Iron Pen and the point of a Diamond on my Heart That I was finally eternally and everlastingly acquitted and absolved from all the guilt of Sin and Sorrow which came by the first Adam having received and closed with the Righteous BRANCH as he was given out of the Father 's own hand for which infinite Grace and Mercy I prostrate my self in Dust and Ashes at his Feet acknowledging his Love and Mercy to be absolute grounded wholly and eternally on the Merits of his Dear Son and that there is nothing in any Creature I further Witness That he enabled me to rely on the Infallibility of his Word Oath and Testimony which from that time stood in full force for the utter destruction of my Sins and Corruptions I Witness That I came a miserable distressed tormented Wretch out of the Old Adam's State so that I had longed many years for a Grave not for any outward Miseries but constant wearyings and tirings out with a Body of Sin and Death And the man whose name is the BRANCH that was given out of the Father 's own hand became almost glorious triumphant Conquerour over the Old Adam and for these things I bow my Knees to the Almighty and shall sing Praise unto my Zion's KING now and ever Amen I Witness That I heard a great voice from the temple of heaven from the throne saying It is done And then he came and writ on me his new name King of kings and Lord of lords and upon this called me to take of the water of Life freely And he shewed me a pure river of water of life clear as christal proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb Rev. 22. 1. I Witness I had not only an outward Call in the Word to take these waters of life but inward Illumination of his Spirit according to these words Rev. 22. 17. The spirit says Come All Glory to my Zion's JESUS now and ever And I took of the water of life and shall never thirst more it is in my Belly a well-spring to Eternal Life All Glory to the Lord alone now and ever I Witness That at the same time he said unto me Behold the man whose name is the BRANCH See the tree of life placed in the midst put forth thy hand fear not take eat and live for ever and he gave me of the Tree with these words John 6. 58. Not as your fathers eat manna and are dead he that eateth of this bread shall live for ever And for all these things Blessing and Honour and Wisdom and Strength and Power be to our God now and ever Amen And there is no more curse but the throne of God and the. Lamb shall be in it his servants shall serve him And see his face and his name shall be in their foreheads And there shall be no night there they need no candle nor light of the sun for the Lord God giveth them light and they shall reign for ever Rev. 22. 3 4 5. All Glory to the Lord alone now and for ever After these things the Lord's servant comes and tells you God hath performed his Oath There is time no longer And the mighty angel comes down cloathed with a cloud and a rainbow on his head his face shin'd as the sun and his feet as pillars of fire And he had in his hand a little book open and he set his right foot on the sea and his left foot on the earth And cried as when a lyon roareth And he lift up his hand to heaven and sware by him that liveth for ever and ever who created heaven and the things that therein are the earth and the things that therein are and the sea and the things that therein are that there should be time no longer Rev. 10. 1 2 3 6. I Witness That on this same day I had a strict Commission from God to tell you with other things That a sign of deliverance to the Church of Philadelphia signified God's Oath to them The Lord tells you He hath performed his Oath and there is time no longer the Old Adam's state is finished And I do affirm in the Name of the Eternal God That this is the Witness of Him that is Faithful and True and that he doth hath and shall for ever sway his Kingly Scepter in my Soul and he hath conquered the Old Adam And once more in the Name of the Lord I do affirm for the Honour of his Word and Oath That he did come down on this same day with a rainbow on his head as a most glorious triumphant Conquerour over the Old Adam and that he did remove the iniquity of the land in one day Zech. 3. 9. And the mountains shall depart and the hills be removed but the covenant of his peace shall never be removed Isa 54. 10. I bear witness That poor Zion which had lain so many 100 Years under the Guilt of that Blood which they shed and they have this day a fountain opened for sin and uncleanness Zech. 13. 1. he hath opened the peoples graves and the dead bodies live again Ezek. 37. 12. I Witness That the Redeemer is come to Zion and hath turned away ungodliness from Jacob Isa 5 9. 20. Oh! with what Adorations of Soul should we worship that God that hath remembred his Covenant to a Thousand Generations his Oath to Abraham and his Seed for

thou and thy fellows ye are men wondred at but behold I bring forth my servant the BRANCH Zech. 3. 8. Established for ever is his Word in Heaven signified sealed and ratified upon Earth but we knew not what these things meant until the Lord's Servant came with these Words from God Behold the Man whose name is the BRANCH See the Christ of God given to you out of the Father 's own hand here 's the visible sensible unvailed Christ performed to you And the seventh angel poured out his vial into the air and a great voice came out of the temple of heaven from the throne saying It is done Rev. 16. 17. Enter Philadelphia in the Name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy-Ghost the Lord he declares the Revelation which is a Prophecy of a Prophecy is fulfilled The voices have been heard and the visions seen and the words of the prophecy of the book have been kept from that word Rev. 1. 3. Blessed is he that reads and they that hear until that Sentence was pronounced upon them They shall reign for evermore Rev. 22. And then the mighty angel came down with a rainbow on his head and the little book open in his hand and lift up his hand to heaven and sware by him who lives for ever and ever who created the heaven and the things that therein are and the earth and the things that therein are and the Sea and the things that therein are that there should be time no longer O joyful happy day And the Lord himself descended from Heaven with a Shout and with the Voice of the Arch-Angel and the Ark of his Testament was seen in his Temple and they were called to return thanks to God and to sing with gladness for Jacob and the Lord appeared to his Servant as a Zion's God and then received him to himself on whom he had writ the Name of the City of his God for the new Jerusalem comes down out of heaven from God Rev. 21. 2 10 11. I witness That this Oath continued with that strength and power upon me that like Fire it broke through all that was cast upon me to damp it till the same Words were put into his Servants Mouth according to that Scripture Isa 59. 21. and then the Everlasting Covenant being pronounced with the Oath of the Eternal God it was declared in the Name of God That the Lyon of the Tribe of Judah had prevailed and they that had kept the Words of the Prophecy of this Book are all Conquerours in Him and as we had derived all Guilt and Misery Death and Sorrow in the first Adam so now we are come to inherit all Grace Glory and Comfort which came by the New we are come to the Blood of sprinkling to the Spirits of just Men made perfect Heb. 12. And that God that had set the bounds to the old Adam hath took an Oath of the time and he is cursed and gone for ever The Seed of the woman hath broke the serpent's head I heard a loud voice saying in heaven Now is come salvation and strength and the kingdom of our God and the power of his Christ Rev. 12. 10. After these things the Lord shewed us as there had been a dark and obscure Sign in the Church of Philadelphia a Rainbow and a pouring down of the Spirit for a Covenant for Zion Isa 59. 21. so now there should be a bright and glorious Sign Isa 66. 18 19. And he will bring all Nations and they shall see his Glory for he will set up a Sign amongst them and in this Mountain will the Lord take away the Vail that is spread over all Nations for he will swallow up Death in Victory Isa 25. 7 8. After these things God ordered it to be declared That the days of the voice of the seventh Angel was ended he had finished his course and kept the Faith and received the Crown of Righteousness which the Lord the Righteous Judge had given him and that the Church of Philadelphia is that Stone spoke of Zech. 3. 9. And that Stone shall bear witness for it hath heard all the words of the Prophecy of that Book And in the Name of God it was declared That the Law of God was writ upon that Stone according to these Words Jer. 31. 33. The day is come saith the Lord that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah and I will put my law in their inward parts and write it in their hearts Object I. This means Zion Answer This is Zion's Representative this is that elect Seed that was to inherit God's Holy Mountain as you may see Isa 65. 9. Rev. 3. 12. I will write upon them the name of the City of my God Object II. Where is this New Covenant Answer I saw a mighty angel come down from heaven with a rainbow upon his head and the angel which I saw stand upon the sea and upon the earth lift up his hand to heaven and sware by him that liveth for ever and ever that time should be no longer I bear witness in the presence of God this Oath hath been sworn and performed to the Church of Philadelphia as Zion 's representative Isa 59. 21. As for me this is my covenant saith the Lord My spirit that is upon thee and the words that I have put into thy mouth shall not depart out of thy mouth nor out of the mouth of thy seeds seed saith the Lord from henceforth and for ever Arise shine for thy light is come and the glory of the Lord is risen upon thee Isa 50. 1. I bear witness That the Angel of the Church of Philadelphia hath the highest badge of Honour writ on him that ever was engraven on the Sons of Men For he hath writ on him the name of God and the name of the city of his God which is new Jerusalem which comes out of heaven from God Rev. 3. 12. and 21. 2 10 11. He writ on him his new name King of kings and Lord of lords for as he represented our Lord Jesus in all his Offices of the Kingdom during the time they were done in Spirit and Mistery so he shall do again when they are done visibly and sensibly in the Eyes of all the World and as we have heard that mighty Voice saying Babylon the great is fallen is fallen so we shall see that other angel come down from heaven having great power and the earth shall be lightned with his glory Rev. 18. He was that olive-tree that stood on the right-side of the bowl that was on the top of the golden candlestick He was that anointed one that stood before the God of the whole earth Zech. 4. 14. He is that prophet that had power to smite the earth with all manner of plagues as oft as he would Rev. 11. 6. For the land is utterly emptied and spoiled the Lord hath spoken this word
