Concerning such as have forbidden Preaching or Teaching in the Name of JESUS and such as are ashamed to confess Him before Men and call not on the Name of the LORD c. HERE you may see who and what they were that forbad the Apostles to Preach or Teach or Speak in the Name of Jesus and what Christ saith of such that are ashamed to Confess Him before Men And what Judgments come upon those Families Kingdoms or Nations that do not call upon the Name of the Lord And they that do not call upon the Name of the Lord and know Him not are such as devoureth Jacob the Elect and Beloved of God And yet the Lord poureth out of his Spirit upon all Flesh that with the Spirit they may know God and call upon his Name Joel 2. Acts 2. The Jews and their Priests said unto the Apostles and threatned them That ye Speak henceforth to no Man in this Name Jesus Acts 4.17 And they said again in Verse 18. to the Apostles That they should not Teach in the Name of Jesus And in Acts 5.28 they again said That they should not Teach in the Name of Jesus mark not to Teach in the Name of Jesus And in Verse 40. they said again to the Apostles That they should not Speak in the Name of Jesus mark not so much as to Speak in the Name of Jesus And yet the Apostle said With the Heart Man Believeth and with the Mouth Confession is made unto Salvation And if thou Confess with thy Mouth the Lord Jesus Christ and that God hath raised him up from the Dead thou shalt be saved Rom. 10.9 10. And the Jews which were the greatest outward Professors agreed That if any Man did Confess that he was the Christ they should be put out of their Synagogue John 9.22 And many of the Chief Rulers Believed on him but because of the Pharisees they did not Confess him namely Christ lest they should be put out of their Synagogue John 12.42 So here were them that did Believe both Rulers and others in Christ but they were afraid to Confess Christ lest they should be Excommunicated or put out of their Synagogues And Christ saith unto his Disciples Whosoever shall Confess Me before Men him will I Confess also before My Father which is in Heaven But whosoever shall Deny Me before Men him will I also Deny before My Father which is in Heaven Mat. 10.32 33. and Luke 12.8 So here you may see they that do Confess Christ before Men are Confessed by Him before His Father and they that Deny Him before Men Christ will Deny before His Father And John saith Every Spirit that Confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the Flesh is of God and every Spirit that Confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the Flesh is not of God So here you may see that it is the good Spirit of God that doth Confess his Son to be come in the Flesh 1 John 4.2 3. Here you may see the two Spirits that which is of God and that which is not of God the good Spirit and the bad Spirit And Who Confess not that Jesus Christ is come in the Flesh is a Deceiver and an Antichrist and so not in the Spirit of God nor Christ 2 John 1.7 And the Apostle saith Prove your own selves know ye not your own selves how that Jesus Christ is in you except you be Reprobates 2 Cor. 13.5 And so if they have not the Spirit of Christ and if He be not in them then they are Reprobates and so none of Christ's And the Apostle saith to the Colossians Christ in you the Hope of Glory And they Warned every Man and Taught every Man in all Wisdom that they might present every Man perfect in Christ Jesus So then Christ must be in His People and they must be in Him Col. 1.27 28. And Christ before Pontius Pilate witnesseth a good Confession 1 Tim. 6.13 This was before His Persecutor so must all the Followers of the Lamb Confess Him before Men to the Glory of God the Father and not be ashamed of Christ their Life Light and Salvation Redeemer Mediator Prophet Bishop Shepherd Leader Counsellor Way and Door to God and the Author and Finisher of their Faith and Heavenly Rock and Foundation and the Captain of their Salvation and not to be ashamed to meet in His Name who hath all Power in Heaven and in Earth given to Him lest He be ashamed of you before His Holy Angels and His Father which is in Heaven And therefore in His Light Spirit Grace Truth and Faith see and hold Christ your Head who Bruiseth the Serpents Head and Reconcileth you to God in whom you and all Nations are Blessed and have Rest and Peace AMEN Pour out Thy Fury upon the Heathen that know Thee not and upon the Families that call not upon Thy Name for they have Eaten up Jacob and Devoured him and Consumed him and bave made his Habitation desolate Jer. 10.25 These were the Persecutors of the Faithful And David saith Pour out Thy Wrath upon the Heathen that have not known Thee and upon the Kingdoms that have not called upon Thy Name for they have Devoured Jacob and laid waste his Dwelling Place Psal 79.6 7. These were the Persecutors of God's Elect. Yet God setteth the Poor on High from Affliction and maketh him Families like a Flock Psal 107.41 And God setteth the Solitary in Families and bringeth out those which are bound with Chains But the Rebellious Dwell in a Dry Land Psalm 68.6 The 26 th of the 10 th Month 1684.
