spreading forth his everlasting truth and stretching forth his eternal arm over the Nations and opening the treasures of Heaven and bringing rain out of his Treasury to water the earth that hath been parched and dry and to make his plants to grow And so all wait that you may see the power and presence of the Lord in all your assemblies and see that there be no strife nor contention nor exaltation amongst you but all in meekness and quietness and long-suffering and forbearance even as the Lord hath spared and forborn you one submitting unto another even as you have heard and received when the word of the Lord came first unto you and he that will be the greatest shall be the least but all in meekness and lowliness of minde serve one another in love even as you have received and the everlasting God of life and power be with you all and make you grow in the living power and virtue of God to order all things in his wisdom as good Stewards of the manifold mercies of the Lord which you are made partakers of that he alone may be glorified throughout all the Churches of Christ Jesus every where And to you my dear brethren and fellow-labourers unto whom the word of Reconciliation is committed and are in the work and Ministry of our Lord Iesus Christ and are made partakers of the everlasting Gospel of peace which unto you is given to declare Lift up your voyces blow the Trumpet sound an alarum out of the holy mountain proclaim the acceptable yeer and the day of vengeance of our God Gird on your sword upon your loins put on the tryed Armour and follow him for ever who rides upon the white Horse and is clothed with the same who makes war in righteousness Ride on ride on my beloved brethren and fellow-souldiers make all plain before you thresh on with the new threshing instrument which hath teeth beat the mountains to dust and let the breath of the Lord scatter it make the heathen tremble and the uncircumcised fall by the sword the Lord of hosts is with us and goes before us Spare none neither Ox nor Asse neither old nor young kil cut off destroy bath your sword in the blood of Amaleck and all the Egyptians and Philistines and all the uncircumcised and hew Agag to pieces break the Rocks cut down the Cedars and strong Oaks make the Devills subject cast out the unclean spirits raise the dead shut up in prison bring out of prison cast in your nets lanch into the deep divide the fish gather the good into vessels cast the bad away binde the Tares in bundles cast them into the fire the Angel with his sharp sickle is come the Angel of the everlasting Covenant is come thrust in your sickles reap the earth the word of God is come that divides let all flesh keep silence divide the Word rightly feed the Lambs and Babes fill the hungry stop the Lyons mouthes feed the fat and the strong with plagues and judgements declare his name publish his eternal truth which shall stand for ever Eternal life is come glory to him for ever Silence all disputers and diviners for ever trample upon all the chaff and dung and mire for ever which all the wisdom of the World feeds upon Greater is he that is in us then he that is in the World Oh my beloved ones although I am the lowest and weakest among many of my brethren yet the eternal power of God is my shield for ever the Lord of hosts is with us There is a Crown which none can take away to all who have denyed all yea it is on your heads the dread of God is with us and truly dear brethren we cannot say that we fished and catched nothing for many vessels are sull nor we have not travelled and laboured and brought forth winde as the false Prophets do for we have the seals of our Ministry which shall be witnesses for the Lord in generations to come Not unto us O Lord but to thy name be glory for ever who hath done and doth all for us and in us who is our strength our glory our Crown of rejoycing all the day long for his hidden treasure is brought forth and made manifest in earthen vessels unto him be eternal living praises for ever And so all dear brethren members of the same body of Christ Jesus by which we are set free from sin in the liberty life and power in which you are made free stand as witnesses for the Lamb and for the holy Nation for the royal Seed of the true Israel of God that it may be brought out of captivity to serve the Lord in the land of the living and the eternal God of power and life of endless rich love and mercy be with you all and prosper his own work in your hands that he alone may be glorified unto whom be eternal insinite praises who is our life our King God blessed for ever and ever And to you all my dear brethren and sisters who suffers in bonds and prisons and dens and holes and suffers the Enemy to plow long furrows upon your backs in patience and suffers stocking whipping buffetting beating and cruel mocking and stripes and chains and fetters whom the world is not worthy of even as they did unto our Master of whom we bear witness of and hath the witness in our selves even so do they unto us But the servant is not greater then his Lord and therefore we that are baptized for the dead and stand in jeopardy of our lives often we have a cloud of witnesses which endured the same and therefore the same baptism and the same cup must be drunk by all that follow him Well my dear brethren your sufferings I know and I know he of whom you bear
