faith_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n you_o can_v easy_o go_v from_o he_o or_o part_n with_o he_o for_o you_o remember_v the_o time_n when_o you_o want_v he_o &_o the_o day_n and_o night_n of_o mourning_n because_o you_o can_v not_o find_v he_o and_o now_o that_o he_o have_v manifest_v himself_o unto_o you_o in_o his_o light_n and_o that_o you_o have_v find_v he_o and_o receive_v he_o can_v you_o leave_v he_o and_o forsake_v he_o to_o embrace_n the_o world_n again_o or_o can_v you_o run_v after_o any_o airy_a spirit_n into_o a_o airy_a kingdom_n oh_o no_o the_o true_a birth_n cry_v my_o

believe_v and_o by_o who_o you_o be_v preserve_v and_o in_o he_o all_o live_v even_o in_o christ_n jesus_n who_o be_v the_o life_n and_o substance_n and_o so_o in_o he_o you_o will_v be_v solid_a and_o weighty_a and_o savory_n and_o sound_n in_o spirit_n and_o mind_n and_o there_o you_o will_v honour_v the_o truth_n in_o a_o clear_a and_o live_a testimony_n to_o god_n glory_n therefore_o keep_v your_o eye_n to_o the_o watch_n that_o as_o you_o have_v receive_v christ_n jesus_n the_o lord_n you_o may_v walk_v in_o he_o and_o abide_v with_o he_o for_o where_o any_o suffer_v loss_n they_o neglect_v the_o watch_n but_o as_o you_o watch_v in_o the_o light_n you_o will_v not_o only_o see_v your_o enemy_n but_o receive_v power_n to_o resist_v he_o and_o in_o due_a time_n to_o overcome_v he_o and_o see_v the_o enemy_n take_v all_o advantage_n to_o work_v his_o work_n how_o then_o shall_v every_o one_o seek_v after_o their_o safety_n &_o security_n &_o stand_v in_o readiness_n to_o resist_v their_o enemy_n and_o how_o be_v all_o concern_v to_o have_v the_o s●me_n care_v one_o over_o another_o in_o love_n and_o tenderness_n of_o spirit_n for_o it_o be_v a_o work_n well_o please_v unto_o god_n and_o they_o be_v of_o good_a report_n who_o be_v find_v in_o it_o and_o their_o memory_n be_v bless_v for_o ever_o and_o how_o this_o care_n ha●h_o be_v manifest_v in_o time_n of_o danger_n it_o be_v witness_v by_o such_o as_o be_v preserve_v for_o how_o have_v the_o enemy_n endeavour_v not_o only_o to_o ensnare_v with_o the_o world_n but_o to_o reign_v above_o the_o seed_n in_o his_o airy_a kingdom_n and_o how_o have_v some_o be_v affect_v with_o his_o work_n as_o have_v a_o fair_a likeness_n in_o a_o show_n of_o high_a discovery_n and_o how_o have_v the_o care_n of_o brethren_n be_v manifest_v in_o this_o hour_n of_o temptation_n for_o in_o the_o first_o appearance_n or_o break_v forth_o it_o dazzle_v the_o eye_n of_o many_o and_o they_o do_v not_o well_o know_v whether_o it_o be_v day_n or_o night_n or_o what_o the_o lord_n will_v do_v in_o such_o a_o sudden_a change_n or_o alteration_n and_o then_o be_v the_o travail_n of_o brother_n very_o great_a as_o have_v much_o care_n of_o the_o body_n and_o their_o testimony_n they_o faithful_o publish_v and_o the_o lord_n have_v wrought_v mighty_o unto_o preservation_n and_o restore_n though_o sum_n in_o their_o own_o wisdom_n may_v still_o plea_n themselves_o in_o that_o kingdom_n and_o notwithstanding_o the_o lord_n have_v so_o preserve_v and_o restore_v and_o give_v dominion_n over_o the_o hour_n of_o this_o temptation_n and_o that_o the_o work_n which_o by_o the_o same_o be_v intend_v be_v by_o the_o power_n of_o god_n prevent_v and_o the_o true_a ministry_n stand_v and_o the_o true_a worship_n stand_v and_o true_a unity_n stand_v and_o the_o holy_a seed_n reign_v yet_o it_o be_v needful_a for_o all_o to_o be_v watchful_a lest_o the_o same_o spirit_n rise_v again_o in_o another_o likeness_n or_o form_n for_o where_o he_o have_v be_v bruise_v and_o foil_v he_o will_v not_o so_o ready_o put_v up_o his_o head_n in_o that_o likeness_n again_o but_o rather_o form_v some_o other_o &_o if_o the_o watch_n be_v not_o keep_v the_o same_o affection_n may_v be_v take_v again_o as_o before_o for_o the_o wrong_n that_o any_o suffer_v in_o thing_n of_o this_o nature_n be_v by_o the_o strength_n of_o natural_a affection_n in_o which_o the_o enemy_n can_v excercise_n his_o subtlety_n to_o deceive_v and_o where_o the_o affection_n be_v let_v at_o liberty_n they_o will_v be_v catch_v at_o every_o new_a presentation_n not_o regard_v the_o ground_n from_o whence_o they_o come_v and_o see_v that_o the_o power_n of_o the_o lord_n god_n have_v bruise_v he_o in_o this_o appearance_n even_o so_o to_o watch_v in_o the_o power_n and_o keep_v he_o down_o with_o all_o his_o form_a likeness_n and_o there_o you_o will_v witness_v the_o conquer_a power_n and_o overcome_a power_n of_o god_n and_o the_o preservation_n and_o deliverance_n by_o it_o oh_o the_o power_n of_o the_o lord_n which_o conquer_v &_o overcome_v the_o enemy_n it_o be_v a_o thing_n which_o be_v beyond_o expression_n and_o yet_o may_v have_v a_o service_n through_o what_o be_v express_v for_o thereby_o weak_a hand_n may_v be_v strengthen_v and_o feeble_a knee_n confirm_v and_o the_o poor_a and_o needy_a encourage_v to_o follow_v the_o lord_n and_o keep_v the_o faith_n without_o waver_v and_o so_o in_o the_o power_n there_o be_v a_o go_v forward_o and_o a_o growth_n in_o grace_n and_o godliness_n and_o there_o love_n and_o peace_n and_o unity_n abound_v in_o he_o true_a seed_n and_o the_o seed_n go_v over_o the_o serpent_n head_n and_o break_v it_o and_o overthrow_v his_o power_n and_o strength_n and_o authority_n and_o so_o the_o true_a seed_n come_v above_o he_o and_o the_o birth_n of_o god_n rejoice_v over_o he_o and_o so_o all_o friend_n mind_v your_o growth_n in_o the_o power_n and_o virtue_n of_o god_n and_o keep_v your_o testimony_n in_o his_o life_n and_o wisdom_n and_o your_o judgement_n in_o a_o clear_a discern_a and_o let_v your_o love_n and_o respect_n be_v unto_o such_o as_o faithful_o labour_v in_o the_o word_n and_o doctrine_n &_o give_v no_o heed_n to_o that_o spirit_n which_o will_v persuade_v you_o to_o disrespect_n brethren_n for_o though_o the_o faith_n of_o out_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n be_v not_o hold_v in_o respect_n of_o person_n as_o to_o say_v to_o the_o rich_a sit_v thou_o hear_v above_o and_o to_o the_o poor_a sit_v thou_o there_o at_o my_o footstool_n yet_o who_o be_v in_o the_o faith_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n they_o be_v teach_v to_o respect_v every_o person_n who_o be_v in_o the_o same_o faith_n for_o how_o can_v any_o love_v one_o another_o according_a to_o christ_n command_n if_o they_o disrespect_n their_o person_n for_o love_n and_o respect_n be_v mutual_o join_v but_o some_o make_v a_o noise_n about_o man_n and_o person_n and_o will_v have_v people_n cease_v from_o man_n and_o not_o respect_v person_n and_o so_o will_v cunning_o overthrow_v love_n and_o respect_n among_o friend_n and_o where_o the_o enemy_n set_v up_o this_o doctrine_n he_o bring_v in_o envy_n in_o stead_n of_o love_n and_o hatred_n in_o stead_n of_o respect_n &_o they_o that_o receive_v this_o doctrine_n into_o their_o beleif_n they_o soon_o go_v out_o from_o the_o saint_n fellowship_n for_o god_n have_v clothe_v some_o with_o his_o wisdom_n and_o with_o power_n from_o on_o high_a have_v endue_v they_o and_o in_o body_n soul_n and_o spirit_n have_v sanctify_v they_o and_o so_o as_o sanctify_a man_n he_o call_v they_o to_o labour_v in_o his_o work_n and_o commit_v the_o word_n of_o reconciliation_n to_o they_o and_o entrust_v the_o gospel_n of_o peace_n with_o they_o and_o they_o that_o cease_v from_o such_o man_n and_o disrespect_n such_o man_n they_o cease_v from_o the_o power_n of_o god_n and_o
