no other but her own reason wisdome knowledge as her God had given her even I the creator so this reason wisdome knowledge which was a good Angel the Angels of God in Adam Eve by knowing more then they should have done and so by presuming to go higher even to be as God like me their creator this reason knowledge and wisdome which was good and the good Angels of God even I the creator of all things did for presumption turn it from what it was even from a good angel or spirit in man into a Serpent a wicked angel an opposer of I their creator and so I did cast this wicked angel even this wicked reason knowledge and wisdome which became wicked for presuming to go higher then it should have done and so for this end and purpose did I the creator cast out this reason wisdome and knowledge for opposing me in Eve and in Adam to be kept in chaines and in bonds of darkness until the day of judgement which chaines and bonds of darkness is no other but giving it up to its own course and so to let it run its own race in runing from me and then giving it ever now and then a touch of my power and glory which I do cause them to behold in whom this Serpent doth remain and so doth cause it to receive torment from me for not making out my self unto them And so these Angels good and had are both in man the good Angels are the spirits of just men that give themselves up to God and so their reason knowledge and wisdome which is the spirit of man are the good Angels of God that are called ministring spirits these angels are always Gods companions and so do keep God even I the All of all things company and are alwayes with me and in me I being their rest and place of ease for when any of my Saints return from the earth so that the body becomes to be dust again then do I draw up the soul and its spirit to their centers whose centers is I the Lord of host who am the life of all men and their life is their soul which must return to me again I being its fountain and as for the spirit that returns to me when it leaves the body of a Saint for I am unto them reason wisdome and knowledge and so their spirit in them answers to mine which because it becomes subject to me it is an Angel of light and also are Angels and ministring spirits whom I the Lord of host sends out to minister comfort to my people and sometimes in formes and in shapes as I please and sometimes by making their spirits answerable to mine and so make them rest in me whence as the body now lies in the grave for saith the Apostle are not Angels ministring spirits set out to minister to them who shall be heirs of salvation sent out to them whom I wil please to send them to so then the good Angels are the spirits of just men made perfect and so saith the Apostle we are come to an innumerable company of Angels even to the spirits of just men made perfect here you may see by your Scriptures that Angels are but the spirits of just men for just men made perfect are Angels ceasing from labour and sorrow for to rest in me the All of all things who am the life of all things and so the angels in scripture made mention of are but the spirits of just men whom I can make to appear in the form of a man and what in power or otherwise in what shape or form I please and so good Angels are but the spirits of just men even of my Saints which are deceased or now contiuing and abiding in me the Lord of host The bad angels that fel and are reserved in chaines of darkness unto the judgement day of the Lord of host is the Serpent that is in man and is the wisdome and reason and knowledge that is in man which is the spirit of man and this reason wisdome and knowledge which was made good for all things were good and so there were no evil this for becoming to exalt it self as to know more then I was willing to let it know did cast it self under my wrath so became a curse under which curse it stil lies and so wil remain unto the judgement day for this reason and wisdome that is in man exalting it self against God and not becoming subject to God is the Serpent that beguiled Eve and so it did Adam and so doth and wil do until it be taken away and for beguiling Eve it became a serpent and a wicked angel thrown out of heaven that is out of the love and favour of I the Lord of host into darkness that is into my sore displeasure and not only a wicked angel but a divel and so al wicked spirits are divels for there were nothing created evil but all was made good and this reason in man was good if it had but kept his bounds wherein I had set it but by taking liberty to do what I would not have it do it became at enmity with me and so became a divel and a destroyer and so a murderer a destroyer and murderer in that it forsook me the fountain of life where it might have had rest and so have bin at quiet and so hath destroyed it self and hath made it self the very curse and so is become the most odious and greatest enemy to mankind puffing it self up and wil not willingly be subject to I the Lord of host though it is true I could make it become subject to me if so be I would shew my infinite power for to bring it from the curse even then would reason wisdome and knowledge which is the spirit of man and so consequently the divel if it opposes God become the greatest joy and comfort to man for the divel is evil in it self not made a divel but he became a divel by disobedience it being the good pleasure of I the Lord that it should be so and so then the spirits of wicked men and women are witches and divels for as you read of men that were possessed with devils and as you read that Christ did cast out devils these devils are nothing but the spirits of wicked men deceased which as soon as they go out of the body they are not at rest neither can they rest or be at quiet but they are alwaies seeking about in whom they may enter yea though it be my pleasure for to keep them out of all yet I do not but do let them get into some and there he becomes a worse divel then he were before and so doth remain for the time of the bodies being and after that ceases it goeth into another and these are witches even the spirits of wicked men are witches and I make use of them as my instruments to punish and plague
aforesaid thus as the tree was digged up by the roots even so as this tree represents all powers so will I root up all powers even I the Lord of host the root and foundation of all powers for the present are set up by the power and strength of men in all Nations It being the good pleasure of I the Lord of host that it should be so and so by the strength and might of men the mankind that are made all of one mold and clay destroy one another which arises from a fleshly domineering and Esau's power that would raign over their fellow creatures which power assoon as one is subdued another takes place and will do so still but the time comes and the set time of I the All of all things is to be at an end and when the fulness of these dayes shall be expired and accomplished then one power shall not destroy another to set himself in power to rule over his fellow creatures no but that power shall destroy all powers besides my selfe as honour and riches shall be destroyed and so the root destroyed that I the Lord of host may be all and in all And the word of the Lord came again saying behold and lo I saw men and women runnnig together and every one said save my god save my god as if men and women had each of them a god which god must now be destroyed and I looked to see what their gods were that there was such running up and down to save them and loe I saw one company and their gods were gold and silver but this god was destroyed and another company made houses and another made their lands but these gods I saw destroyed another made their pride and honour but these gods were destroyed also and so one after another they were all destroyed even all those things which men and women have run a whoring after must be destroyed and brought to nothing and I said Lord what meaneth the people to call these their gods and my excellent majestie at whose bright appearing all things besides himself must be destroyed who will now suddenly appear to make men weep and houl for the miseries that are now a coming upon them said on this manner as followeth they call these their gods because they have set their hearts more upon these things then upon me and have with all eagernesse run after these things but I at my appearing destroys them all and so will take from earthly creatures those things wherein they have put most trust and confidence in and will destroy them in their sight even their gods of silver and gold and will make them throw away their pictures And again the word of the Lord said behold and loe I saw a company of men with their hands upon their loynes weeping and wayling crying out for help and I said Lord what meaneth these to be so feeble and to stand as they do crying for help and my eternal God said these men represent all my enemies and all my Saints enemies as they stand with their hands on their loines crying for help it showes that I the Lord of host have stricken them with fear and terror even I have taken their strength from them and they shall become as weak as water even so weak that one shall slay a 100. and a 100. slay 10000. for all their strength was taken from them so that I am confident 1. wil make nothing to slay 1000 if it doth please God to bring his enemies in such a condition which prophesie I look to see fulfilled in the year of redemtion of the creation from bondage which wil be a year of Jubilee and this Jubilee is at hand for I the Lord of host comes and wil not tarry but will arise like a man of war tearing and devouring in sunder al my enemies and wil consum them by the breath of my nostrils they shal not be able to stand for I will tread trample on them in the fierceness of my wrath wil make them come bowing down to the soals of the feet of my saints wil give the strength glory honor to my Saints and they shal rejoice and sing for ever ever And the word of the Lord came again saying behold what dost thou now see and lo I beheld a woman gloriously arrayed with a Scepter in her hand and she had a maid to wait upon her and I said Lord what meaneth this and my God the most high Jehovah answered me and said this woman represents the sons and daughters of Sion and as you saw her with a Scepter in her hand it denotes unto you that she hath power and strength over all her enemies and so is a conqueror over them all and so hath them in subjection be her enemies great or small more or less so then the time is now a comming that Sion shal rejoyce and be glad and shall sing for joy of heart when her enemies shall stand a far off and weep for bitternesse of spirit and as you saw her gloriously arrayed it shewes that the sons and daughters of Sion shall have of the best they shall eat and drink of the best and wear of the best not that they shall have the others which are those whom God in love doth not make out himself unto in bondage slavery and so deprive them of the outward creatures no but they shal have the use of the creation as to have their fil with food and al necessaries belonging to the body so they shal in this sense be their servants as is shewed by the maid waiting on the woman And presently after I saw one in glory with an army following him and he cut down his enemies a pace and left none to oppose him and of a sudden I saw all his enemies destroyed for this form of glory is the mighty God that is now risen to take vengeance on his enemies and to make them his foot-stool and his armies are his ministring spirits by which he will confound all the glory honour and strength of men yea even bring to nothing all the glory and powers of all fleshly powers how high soever they be lifted up for alas poor flesh what art thou now in my hands I am now risen to judge thee to burn thee up and so to bring thy flesh to nothing yea I will not leave thee root or branch for there shall not be son or nephew but I even I the mighty Jehovah will make a short worke for I will work and who art thou that shall hinder me from doing my purpose Therefore rejoyce and sing for joy of heart for behold I come even I thy king ô Sion shout shout and spare not lift up thy voice like a trumpet and say my God raignes even thy holy King of Sion therefore sing aloud and let the high praises of God be in thy mouth and a sharp two-edged sword in thy hand and so execute
at the transfiguration of my son that made his disciples say it was good for them to be there even so shal my appearing in you and glathreing of you together shining in you and among you in so glorious a manner rocking you a sleep in my glory shal make you say it is good for us to be here even in this place where it is thy pleasure we shal be for here shal we be in the same condition as the two dissciples were in for at the transfiguring of thy self made them to say it was good for to be here by reason of the more transcendent glory they saw far more then they did before notwithstanding they had a long time bin in Jesus his companie so that notwithstanding those glorious discoveries which you have had of me and those glorious breakings forth of light which hath bin among you wil appear to be nothing in comparison of that light and glory you shal have when you are taken apart from the people as the two Apostles were had in the mount even then shalt thou see a more glorious discovery of me when thou art taken wholy out of Babylon and wholy from all thy enemies and brought up into the mount even into Jerusalem the place which I wil adorne with all manner of precious things as jewels of gold and pearles and precious stones of all sorts and I wil change these glimpes of light and glory which thou now hast and these little sparkes of light into a full and perfect view wherein thou maist see clearly my light and glory and so these sparkes become coales of fire that shall appear in a more fuller manner to thee then ever they did before which wil be in such an extraordinary manner that al things else shal become nothing in comparison of this glory which I wil now make you to see And whereas Jesus was transfigured before his two disciples and they saw him in glory and he was not alone in this condition but they did see Moses and Elias talking with him this is a mistery which shewes that I the Lord of host appearing in my bright and glorious dispensations which wil now be I shal appear alone but as Moses and Elias was with Christ when he was transfigured even so shal Moses and Elias now be with me in my bright appearing to you and not only Moses and Elias but all that have bin my faithful servants even the whole house of Israel shal appear in glory and you shal see and know them that they are Moses and Elias and the rest of my Saints whom I have now raised up to come and be with you and have given them a body as I have seen good and Enoch of old prophesied the Lord cometh with ten thousand of his Saints so now wil I come not only with ten thousand but with all my Saints to gard and keep me company and so wil make my name a glorious name and a memorial for ever and I thus appearing in glory and majesty wil make all my enemies to tremble and to quake when they shal hear that I the Lord doth raign in mount Sion and that I have brought Moses and Elias and all the rest of the prophets thither there for to make thee rejoyce in me the Lord of host clothing them with my self and making them for to appear in glory giving them a revvard that they shal come and be in my love and favour and that they shal now rule over all their enemies and all their enemies shal be but their footstool and they shal now tread and trample that wicked spirit which hath often persecuted them to nothing and so now shal appear to be Kings and conquerours through me that love them here is but a glimps of that glory which you shal enjoy when you come to Sion when you see me and all my Saints with me rejoycing in me and I in them but how ever know this that Sion shall be made the praise of the whole earth and all glory shal be there even all manner of precious things and all the nations shal ly down in their dust and be brought to shame and confusion and the Lord alone shal be exalted and wil magnifie himself and wil get him glory and honour over all his enmies and so wil bring to nothing all those that have opposed him and wil make Sion a scourge and a torment that shal torment all nations when they hear of the love and favour that I wil do to them and when they hear of that glory and beauty that I wil make to shine amongst them and when they hear of that priviledge that I wil give you O you Sion that you shal alwaies rejoyce and sing and shal dwel in peace and he of one heart and of one minde glorying in me and rejoycing in me and blessing your selves in my name and shal see nothing but joy for former things be passed away and all things now become new nothing but righteousnesse dwelling among you and the glory of me the Lord of host overshadowing you and keeping of you from sorrow and weeping having redeemed you out of the hands of them that were stronger then you and have made you now stronger then all your enemies and all shall lick the dust of the soles of thy feet and cal thee the Sion of the Lord the holy one of Israel and whereas thou hast been forsaken that no man went through thee I wil make thee the glory and excellency of many Generations even the joy and delight of the whole world a place wherein there shal be nothing but singing and rejoycing in God even in me the Lord of host who am the All of all things And the Lord said within me behold I looked there appeared three Suns and they were one above another the lowest was not so glorious as the midlemost neither was the midlemost so glorious as the highest for the highest of them did outstrip the other in glory and did shine so gloriously that it did darken and put out the light of both the rest for I did see that the midlemost had put out the light of the first even so that it did scarse shine but the highest did so gloriously shine in such a bright manner that the lesser lights were but darkness to that And I said Lord what meaneth these Suns and one to be so bright over the other and so to darken the rest and my God said that these three Suns hold forth three dispensations one of them more glorious then the rest and as they do appear unto you in glory so did they shine for the time of their being and the first Sun doth hold forth the first dispensation even that which was given by me the Lord of host to Moses even that law that was written in Tables of stone and the children of Israel had amongst them therefore as I did appear to my servant Moses in such away as to give him
other wicked men in whom the same spirit remaines and I do also allow unto these witches power for to torment as to bewitch the cattle of men for they in bewitching of them they dy for it is my pleasure to suffer this for a while and these witches are the divel and serpent mentioned and the divel that Christ cast forth which run into the heard of swine was no other spirit or divel but the spirit and divel of a wicked man deceased its going into the heard of swine by asking Christ leave shewes that it cannot go into any it self or what it doth it doth it by having permission from me to do it and so nothing is done but I must give way for it to be done as I gave way for the Divel that was cast out to go into the herd of swine which swine sets forth wicked men for nothing is more like to a wicked man then a swine for as a wicked man wil drink and be drunk so wil a swine swil til he bursts himself if he might be put to some ale or strong beer so that the Divel being cast out of a wicked man and the man become a convert there is no place for him to be any longer but the Divel begging to go into the herd of swine shewes his earnest desire to be in his element for the swine sets forth wicked men and so the divel that was cast forth went into the wicked men even into its center from whence it came For the very rise of this Divel and also of wicked spirits which are Divels was not made by God even by I the Lord of host to be so but they departing from good and made the good which I gave them evil and so they became Divels declining from doing that which I commanded them to do and so the very rise and fountain from whence the Divel came was from man his imaginations being continually evil though man could never do so much as to do any thing contrary to me but must of necessity do my pleasure for I only am active and the creature only and alone passive so that Divel that doth most torment men is God who doth give power unto wicked spirits for to punish them and wicked spirits do nothing but what is the pleasure of I their King who suffers them to do as they do while the time runs round and comes to the same being and form as it was at the first For the seed of the woman shall break the serpents head this woman is the Church and so the seed is Christ in this Church so then the Christ which is the new man shal in time rise and break in peices the old man old Adam shal be destroyed and consumed to nothing the Serpent whose head must be broke is that reason knowledge and wisdome even that Serpent and Divel that came in by disobedience and must be destroyed and so cast into the lake of fire for the day of judgement unto which this Divel is reserved and kept in chaines of darkness is the day of my power by which power I wil destroy and bring to nothing this Divel for the day of iudgement when I wil judge this Divel it wil be my bright appearing to confound the adversary and so to bring to nothing all the serpentine wisdome of the flesh and also all the cuning and craftiness of the proud flesh for the chains in which this Serpent is reserved is nothing else but that I do out give unto all that power and strength to come into its first station where in it was set which in time I wil destroy al besides these things that shal appear gloriously and shine by holding forth my glory and wil make Christ the new man appear in power spreading of it self in all for to redeem all from this power of darkness and wil make man to be as he was at the first taking away the Divel wicked spirits from man yea out of man and that which was made good and become a Divel shal once again become good and so become an Angel of light for my self spreading in my sons and daughters in my chosen and peculiar ones at Jerusalem first whither I wil gather my Sion together and that power that spreads in them shal in time spread it self and never leave spreading until it hath redeemed the earth from the curse so hath redeemed man from being any more subject to the serpent and so wil never leave spreading its self until it brings all into its self from whence all came and so shal all once again return even into the same condition as Adam was in for all to be as one and all speak one language for as at the building of Babel all were confounded in their languages even so at the destruction of Babel shal all be brought to speak one language which wil be in revolution of all things when the time even that time shal be at an end then wil there be a redemption from all bondage not some only but all yea the whole creation shal then be wholly set free into the glorious liberties of the sons of God all creatures shal then have benefit by Christ yea the very poor beasts for all things shal become as they were in Adams daies before he fel even in the year vvhen I the Lord even I the mighty God of Iacob wil judge and destroy al that enmity that hath bin betwixt the creature and so all that enmity that hath been betvvixt one Creature and another and all shal be set free even into liberty once again so that I vvil make all men to be changed and vvil take avvay that malicious spirit that novv is and remaines amongst men and I even I vvil bring all things round and so vvil make my son Christ to be a great redeemer and he shal redeem all that did fal in Adam from death and misery into the same condition as Adam vvas in at the first even to set all in purity and so to make all live in God and so shal all Israel be saved and all ungodliness shal be turned avvay for it is my pleasure for to take pitty on the vvorks of my hand not to continue in vvrath against my poor creatures vvho are not able to do any thing vvithout me and so the time of the restitution of all things to the same as they vvere in Adam before he fel shal clearly be manifested after 7000 years be accomplished and brought to an end but vvhile then the creature man shal not be vvholy set free from the curse that is from serpentine vvisdome and from being troubled and perplexed because I the Lord of host doth not shine upon them For darkness shal cover the earth and gross darkness the people this darkness that shal cover the earth vvil be by reason it is my pleasure to forgo all forms and dispensations and all outvvard vvorships vvhatsoever and so vvholy to give
thee they shal even the Gentiles make enquire after you because you are my chosen people and you are they to whom I wil make out my self in glory to therefore shal they come even those that shal believe that I wil make you the praise of the earth they come even the Gentiles come to thee because I have withdrawn my self from them and wil not be in their worships neither wil I cause them for to receive any joy or comfort in any place or kingdome for to finde rest for their spirits but at this place where I have appointed to bring thee O Sion out of the hands of all thy enemies and from the power of all they that hate thee for thy sons shal come from far and thy daughters shal be nursed at thy sides even thy sons and daughters O Sion shal come from East West North South even from all places to be partakers of that infinite joy pleasure and glory which you shal injoy sons they shal be because they come after you to that ful and perfect enjoyment of I the Lord of host and nursed at thy sides because they shal receive of that fulness which you did receive of before therefore they shal come even as a child doth when he is hungry doth receive food with gladness even so shal al these that come up to thee even thy sons and daughters to be nursed at thy sides come to thee as to their mother for Ierusalem abore is the mother of us all even come to thee ö Jerusalem for comfort hearing that I the Lord of host is pleased for to make out my self to thee in a more especial manner then formerly I have done and so to receive comfort from thee even to suck and be satisfied with the fulness of that consolation you do receive from the Father even to suck and receive comfort from the same fountain of life even from I the Lord of host this shal be the state and condition of you you shal have your fil and be ful when others shal be in want and not be satisfied and they that come up to you shal drinke abundance of my fulness when they that tarry behind shal be deprived of my love light and glory so that they shal find no rest for their spirits for I wil make you to be like Noahs ark that was a place of refuge for Noah and those that were in it when others were destroyed in my wrath even so I have appointed peace and rest to be with you and nothing but trouble of conscience to the rest and to those that tarry behind and come not up to you but some there shal be that shal be like Noahs Raven that he sent forth which wandred up and down and could find no rest for her feet until it came into Noahs ark again even so shal some be troubled and shal have no rest until they come up to Jerusalem the place of my love and favour and the place where I have delighted to dwel and wil dwel forever and whosoever comes up to that place even to Jerusalem the City wherein I have appointed them to dwel shal find rest and be in peace freed from sorrow and trouble even as the Raven found peace in Noahs ark and rested there Then thou shalt see and flow together and thine heart shal fear and be inlarged because the abundance of the Sea shal be converted the forces of the Gentiles shal come unto thee their multitudes of Camels shal cover thee the dromidaries of Midian and Epha all they from Sheba shal come they shal bring gold and incense and shal shew forth the praises of the Lord all the flocks of Kedar shal be gathered together unto thee the Rams of Nebaioth shal minister unto thee they shal come up with acceptance on my altar and I wil glorifie the house of my glory Now shal ye gather your selves together and rejoyce and be glad because of those that are converted for to come up to thee O Sion who hath bin made a laughing stock in all Nations but now shal be made the praise of all Nations and that all shal come up to thee that wil have any rest or be satisfied with my fulness even those that have bin your great enemies shal now be glad to come to thee O Sion which shal be gathered to Ierusalem with their gold and incense to praise and magnifie thee and even I the Lord of host in thee who have chosen thee to be the glory of all Nations look and see who are those that fly as a cloud and as Doves to the windows even these be my sons and daughters who are Gentiles and want rest and seek for rest but can find none therefore hearing of my glory wherewith I make out my self to thee O Sion in whom I am in the midst of thee they fly as clouds they hasten from their Countries even to come to thee that so they may have rest and peace with thee O Sion in whom I the holy one of Israel is in the midst of and wil be king for ever Surely the Isles shal wait for me and the ships of Tarshish for to bring thy sons from far their silver and their gold with them unto the name of the Lord thy God and to the holy one of Israel because he hath glorified thee even these Ilands as England for one that shal be the first that strive to go to my people who have a long time bin cast off but now through my mighty power will graft them into the true vine again and they shal become glorious and shal say blessed be they that come in the name of the Lord Hosanna in the highest though formerly through unbeliefe and hardness of heart they crucified my son Iesus and so would not have him to be their King because he did not come in pomp and glory but came of a Carpenters wife and descended from so low a linage shal we say they believe this man is the son of God seeing that he is so poor and so mean and seeing he came for to destroy our Laws and formes of worships and governments and the old customes of offering up sacrifice which was that law and Testament that God gave unto Moses for us to observe and keep for ever therefore before they would part from their formes of worships and so would have a new one they would crucifie my son Iesus and would not then have him to be their King for which cause I did cast them off and so did cause them to be dispersed in all Nations But now I have in my mercy and pitty towards them remembred the covenant which I made to their father Abraham that in him all nations shal be blessed and so wil now restore them by my power from their enemies in what country or nation they be dispersed and wil make them to be gathered together into their own Countrey and now I wil give them hearts to believe
