transgresses his commands and must be condemned into perdition for all cursed Fruits doth spring forth from that Seed to the vexing and grieving of the Lord God injustice oppression deceit hypocrisie falsheartedness lying murder whoredom theft envy bitterness perversness devouring one another covetousness idolatry and all manner of evil which gives an ill savor a corrupted taste and a loathsom sight in the presence of the Lord God who made all things Oh how abominable are all the wayes of man become-unto his Maker who hath nodelight in any of his ways nor pleasure in any of his Works Oh how is the Lord grieved and his soul from day to day oppressed and his long-suffering provoked by the ways and works of his creatures which he made for himself but they are become the Devils and subject to the power of the enmity all mans works are brought forth in that nature which is evil and out of that ground which is cursed his good works are not accepted and his evil deeds are condemned all which springs forth of one root of bitterness and enmity which is in the displeasure of the Creator Oh earth be awakened and all ye sons and daughters of Adam call to mind your state and condition and repent and return before destruction when no time of repentance can be found Hearken to instruction and let your ears be open to hear here you may all hear and understand the way to restoration to be restored and recovered out of this condition and out of this Enmity and from under this curse of misery and destruction for a way hath God prepared unto all mankind and is making it manifest unto the whole earth that the Sons and Daughters of Adam may again know their Maker and have fellowship with him and this way is but one which is ordained for all people upon the face of the earth of what Tribe or Nation soever and all that comes to the knowledge of the Creator must walk in this way which is called Christ Jesus who is the Son of the Creator the second Adam the Lord from Heaven the Power and VVisdom of the Creator and by him all things was made and without him was not any thing formed that was brought forth he is the Restostorer the Redeemer and the Deliverer for he connot be overcome of the evil but overcometh and treadeth down all the Powers of Darkness and death and the Devil which riseth against him in all the world and the Creator hath so loved mankind though he hath transgressed against him and grieved him yet he hath given his Son into the world into all Nations without respect of persons or people to be the Saviour of all that believe in him and receive him that they may come out of death and darkness from under the Devils power and may be translated and changed and renewed out of sin and death and ignorance and rebellion and out of the Kingdom of the Devil into truth and righteousness and into the kingdom of God And this Restorer and Saviour the Power and VVisdom of the Creator hath lightned all mankind every one that cometh into the world is lightned by him that every one may follow him and be guided by his power and wisdom and every one that doth receive him sin and iniquity and transgression is condemned and the seed of the Enmity is cast out by his power which is revealed against all unrighteousness and he subdues it and works it forth of the hearts of all men and so reconciles man again to his Maker to have fellowship with him and this Restorer the second Adam comes to be revealed within every man who executes true Judgement upon the Transgressor and bindeth under the rebellious Nature and death and condemnation passes upon the seed of Enmity and all its fruits upon the Devil and all his works upon him who is born of the flesh and all his wayes his joy is turned into mourning his pleasures into sorrow his glory and rejoycing into sadness of heart and the life which he has lived comes to be crucified the ways which he hath walked in comes to be hedged up and no more followed and his strength is turned into weakness and all his ways and pleasures fadeth and perisheth and the birth which is immortal comes to be brought forth which is not of this world but Heir of the Creators Inheritance who hath no glorying under the Sun nor no pleasure in the glory of this world which passeth away but lives unto God in all things and brings forth fruit unto the Father and is replanted into the living Vine and is leavened into a new lump and placed in the Garden of God all the old garments are put off old things are passed away the devil is cast out the blinde eye is opened the vail is taken away which hath been spread over all the deaf ear is unstopped man is again returned unto his Maker hears sees understands the things which are eternal which belongs to his peace the fear of God is set up in his heart and Gods secrets are revealed unto him he is become the glory of his Maker to praise him to glorifie him to magnifie him for evermore being restored again unto Gods Image guided with his power wisdom have received dominion and authority from his Maker to reign rule over all creatures to be exercised in all things to his glory by whom they were made he is not in bondage to any creature but in liberty over it the creatures are become his servants he servant to his Maker the earth yeilds its encrease unto man the curse is removed the blessing restored in the Covenant of Peace and righteousness where all creatures comes to be injoyned the covenant of Death and Hell being broken and disannulled where the curse stood standeth in all the world where the Restorer of the second Adam is not received who moveth by the measure of his power against the evil in the hearts of all men he knocketh at the door of the heart that he may be received and come in and dwell with the children of men whose delight is with the sons of men every one that openeth unto him hearkeneth to his cry who calleth by the Light moveth by his Power by him they receive life and peace and sulness from the Father and are raised from death to life redeemed from under the power of Satan to the power of the Creator all evil in the ground and in the fruits judgement goes upon it all and condemnation thus mankind comes to be restored again to God his Maker to be the children of God and heirs of his Inheritance and is no more of this world but redeemed by Jesus Christ out of kindreds tongues and people out of respect of time place creatures or things and sees through all creatures to be before the world was beyond all the glory of this world to the glory of the Lord and here is the praising the singing rejoycing the living walking in that life which cannot change in the world of which there is no end and here a greater glory is known then the first mans glory a greater state then that which was overcome of the Devil a greater dominion then that which was lost this dominion never can have an end death is swallowed up of life all sorrow and anguish is swallowed up of rejoicing all tears are wiped here and there is no more sorrow the quickning spirit is felt and witnessed which hath quickned again to God and God Tabernacle is with men and his dwelling place with the children of men and that is felt and seen and tasted which was before the world was before any creature was made and the whole world is comprehended and mans state in his first creation is here known what it was and mans state in transgression is also known whiat it was and mans state restored again is also witnessed and the difference sperceived betwixt the first Adam which was overcome of the Devil though he was innocent and without sin and bore the likeness of his Maker and of the second Adam who cannot be overcome of the devil whom Satan hath nothing in who is the express image of the creator it self He that hath an ear to hear let him hear eye hath not seen ear hath not heard it hath not entered into the heart of man that which the Father hath revealed by his spirit things not lawfull to be uttered of which there is no declaring that which is infinite endless eternal and in this I shall end London the 6. of 3. mon. 1656.
