fi●st was naturall and the second spirituall and here thou speaks contrary to the Scriptures which saith he is the expresse image of the Father and here in all who do witness the Scriptures to be true must witness against thee who speaks contrary to the Scriptures and now to blind peoples eyes thou tells them thou understands it thus Adam was made after the Image of God God the Father Son and the holy Spirit come let us make man after our not my image To this I answer here thou hast added to the Scripture for God did not say not my image as thou doth charge him to say for the Scripture saith God created man in his own image in the image of God created he him as Gen. 1. 27. thou calls that image in which Adam was created the essentiall image and the image of Christ thou calls a personall image and here by them who dwell in the light thou art seen out of the substance in the images making to thy self images and likenesses from thy imaginations but in them thou canst not know God and Christ nor the image of God in which Adam was created in innocency and there is no such word in Scripture as essentiall image and here thou goes about to make three images and so amongst the image-makers thou art who art out of Gods commands and there thou may read thy self But now the Lord God is gathering his own seed by his eternall light out of all images and likenesses to be conformed to the image of his Son and to bear his image who is invisible which all the imaginers cannot enter into who stumble at the light but all such are seen by the children of the light and denied for now do they witness from the Lord the day of redemption yea plentious redemption is now witnessed by them who dwells in the light which comprehends the world and out of the world and out of the worlds teachings and out of the worlds ways and out of the worlds worships into the pure teachings of God into the Covenant where they know God are taught of him and no more can they be led by the blind guids for their eyes are opened which were blind now in the light of Christ the way is seen which leads unto God the Father of light in it all false prophets false teachers they do see by them cannot be deceived who come in sheeps cloathing and are beautifull outwardly decked with the Saints words but inwardly ravening Wolves and now their covering comes to be taken off which was none of there own and now the Wolf appears ravening against the Lambs of God for the day hath made them manifest and of them the Lambs of God are aware and in Innocency is preserved and in the pure wisdome which is not of this world in it they see and comprehend the serpents wisdome and subtility and craftiness and snares which for the righteous seed is laid but in the eternall lightmade manifest to the seed a way is seen out of then all and by the eternall power of the pure living God of life deliverance out of them all is witnessed eternall pure living prayses to him for evermore Given forth from the Love of God to the souls of those who desire to know the truth to take away all stumblings and cut of all occasions from all minds that in the light of Christ the truth they may see to be clear from all slanders and false accusations which from the unclean spirits proceed which goeth out of the mouth of the Dragon to devoure the innocent but from the dragon and all his floods the innocent is preserved Given forth from him who a witness stands for the truth of God against all deceipt Richard Hubberthorne Written from Mendlesham in Suffolk the 29. day of the 3. Month 1655. FINIS
bring this scripture in thy paper yet it thou canst not own that the grace of God which bringeth salvation to all men hath appeared who denies Christ to have enlightned every one that comes into the world This word for the manner of delivery unto us is called Priest scripture and we are commanded to search it Joh. 4. 39. and laid under the promise of blessing in that way Psal 1. 2. Here thou hast numbered thy self amongst those whom Answ Christ commanded to search the scriptures and amongst them shalt thou be numbered and in that scripture thou may read thy condition and the rest of the priests with thee as John 37. 38. 39. 40. ye have neither heard his voice at any time nor seen his shape and ye have not his word abiding in you for whom he hath sent ye him believe not search the scriptures for in them ye think to have eternall life and they are they which testifie of me and ye will not come to me that ye might have life now al you who are in the same condition the same command is unto you But there is no promise of blessing promised unto you in that way no more then was to them which was so commanded but never prove your selves ministers of Christ for they were no ministers of Christ that this was spoken unto nor no Saints but such as received honour one of another as you do who are in that generation And they were such as did not believe that which they did professe Moses the Prophets but Christ tells them plainly they did not believe Moses nor his writings and all you now that professe Christ you cannot believe Christs words who saith he is the true light which doth enlighten every one that cometh into the world Therefore out of the doctrine of Christ you are shut and out of the scriptures which you do professe for the Sons life which witnesseth the scriptures you deny and are strangers unto he that hath an care to heare let him heare Satan hath from the beginning envied a people this Priest priviledge and saith at Christs first coming the commandements of God was made of none effect through tradition Mat. 15. 6. and saith at Christs second coming the commandements of God will be of none effect through revelation Here thou hast uttered forth words without knowledge Answ but it is that thy Ignorance and folly may be layed open unto all for it was they that made the commandements of God of none effect through tradition which precryed standing in the Sinagogues had the chiefest places in the assemblies and was called of men master and in these steps art thou and the rest of the priests in England who art the same things for at Christs first coming he cried wo against such and the same Christ crys wo against the same things now and whereas thou saiest that at Christs second coming the commandements of God will be of none effect through revelation here I charge thee to be a blasphemer and dost speake that thou hast no scripture for and contrary to the scriptures and contrary to the Apostles doctrine for Paul did witnesse Christ second coming which was in the spirit as in Gallatians 2. and 2. and saith I went up by revelation and communicated unto them that Gospell which I preached amongst the gentiles and he did witnesse the Son of God revealed in him and all the Apostles who did witnesse him to be come again to them the second time to reveal the will of the Father unto them this did not make the commandements of God of none effect the same Christ we do witnesse to be come and hath revealed the Fathers will unto us for no man knows the Father but the Son and he to whom the Son reveales him this we do witnesse eternall living prayses to him for ever more and by his revealing his Son in us his commandements are fulfilled and so all such we do deny that say by the revelation at the second coming of Christ they shall be made of none effect Certainly many old Testament Saints saw into the Priest glory and liberty of New Testament times yet durst not cease from that worship which was burdensome worldly and carnall till the Lord did come in person and call them out Here I do charge thee to prove where ever any of the Answ Saints before Christ was made manifest in the flesh did continue in that worship which they saw to be burdensome worldly and carnall but did declare against all false worship sacrifices and services which was worldly and carnal and against all who drew near to God with their mouths whose harts was from God and against all Idolitrous worships which were carnall did cast of every burden as is witnessed in the prophets which were before Christ came in the flesh and here all the prophets and holy men of God shall witnesse against thee as Isaiah Jerem. David Ezek Mica and the rest who worshipped God and their worship was not carnall nor worldly neither did Christ come in person to call them out of their worship for they had finished their testimony before Christ came in the flesh who did fulfill their testimony and did bear witnesse unto it that it was of God and did declare all that were out of that worship which the Saints were in who worshipped God before Christ came in the flesh who was the end of the Law and the end of the Prophets let him that hath understanding read these things now here doth Christ the Saints the Scriptures all bear witness against thee and thy doctrine which would make people believe that the Prophets and holy men of God who were before Christ came in the flesh did live and continue in that worship which was burdensome worldly and carnall which here is proved against thee by Christ the Saints the Scriptures that shame may cover thy face and that thy mouth may be stopped and that the simple may know the truth for whose sakes this is given forth So New Testament Saints may se into that liberty and Priest glory which is to be revealed but let them not go forth before the time but abide in New Testament worship till the Lord come in person and call them out and then they shall go out all together Matt. 24. 27. it is indeed a worthy life which we live in the spirit but it is an unworthy deceipt that except we live out of the Gospell we cannot live in the spirit O be ashamed for ever to professe thy self a minister Answ of Christ and of the Gospell why dost thou preach at all or what art thou a minister of if that Christ be vet to be revealed or uncome in person which thou houlds forth to the people and how many souls hast thou led into that pit of darkness and blindness as to believe that Christ is yet to come in person he that confesseth not
