And therefore I am throughly convinced in Conscience of the falsenesse of the malignant Church of England And of the evill of all other States which are contrary to Christs Institutions knowing that our great high Priest who is holy harmeless undefiled and separated from sinners (a****) Heb. 7. 26. would have his people avoid all manner and measure of spirituall Communion (b****) 2 Cor. 6. 14-17 with such he having called us (c****) Rev. 18. 4. from the fellowship of Devills (d****) 1 Cor. 10. 20 21. and wicked men (e****) 2 Cor. 6. 17. that we may not in a way of spirituall worship sit with mortall men of false vanity nor goe in with dissemblers but hate the Church of evill doers and not fit with the wicked (f****) Psal 26. 4 5. Therefore according to Christs Institutions and Commandements being with my Seed (g****) Exo. 10. 9. and substance (h****) V. 25 26. fully separated not onely from them but also from those who communicate with them either in their Publick Congregations or private societies I doe resolve through the grace of the ever-living-God who hath brought me out of Babell never to returne to their vaine inventions their humane devises abominable Idolatries nor superstitious high places which were built and dedicated to Idolatry but to abstaine from all appearance of evill (i****) 1 Thes 5. 22. and to worship God onely in spirit and truth (k****) Joh. 4. 24. according to that manner which he hath prescribed in his word without adding or diminishing (l****) Deut. 4. 2. Prov. 30. 6. Rev. 22. 18 19. And through the light of the holy Scriptures I clearly see not onely the necessity of this holy way of Separation in obedience to the heavenly Call but also the great need of continuing in Christian Fellowship Communion and Society of Saints And that to be of the Visible Particular Church of Christ is most needfull for the Sain●s edification in this life For to that heavenly company is committed the Oracles of God (m****) Rom. 3. 2. By them the Kingly Priestly Propheticall and Apostolicall Offices of Jesus Christ is to be set forth For the King and Lord of all administrations (n****) 1 Cor. 12. 5. who is that great Prophet (o****) Acts 3. 22 23.
