L. Gloria in Excelsis Am not I He that filleth all things London Printed for the Author 1688. TO THE READER Courteous Reader THat God made the Ear the sacred Scripture asserts and shall not he hear in our hearing Yea he made all things and in through and by all our Sences he informs such as are Vessels fit for the Masters use it is meer Atheism to think God when he had made this World went out of it and left it to his Creatures to dwell in it without him Oh no in him we live move and have our being He is the Fountain of all Life and is All-hearing All-seeing All-smelling All tasting and All-feeling and we are and have all from him who is and filleth all things but so far is Man gone outward and become Dust that he is insensible of the life of God and knoweth not that God liveth in his Life and therefore when the Scriptures say God purchased his Church with his Blood we understand it only imputatively when the Scriptures say it repented God that he made Man to dwell on the Earth we are apt to think him to be altogether such a one as our selves and when we read God is not as man that he should repent then we think that all the Evil we meet with was by him decreed should come upon us from all Eternity and all this and almost every Text else we abuse for want of knowing Mans going out of Gods will into his own is the real cause he ever knew Evil and by a continual progress of going out from God into himself from Adam even to this day the Proverb is verified He that lives longest must fetch his Wood farthest Happy days all men would have but few was ever perswaded to go into that Countrey where true happiness is only to be found If then it be yet possible to perswade any to return to God he is told demonstratively that he is not far from every one of us we cannot pronounce or spell one word good or bad without him which shews the Word which is God is in our mouths as well as good thoughts proves him in our hearts return then to God and make him no longer serve your sins by harbouring hard thoughts of God and thy Brother nor speaking ill of any thing but study to manifest thy love to God by doing good to thy Brother and thou shalt receive good from him that is all good Farewell A God in invisibility or Tri-Une being b c d The 3 principles in the Divine Nature the Divine Sol Sul and Mercury E The Word or Seed and Form of God super-essential Jesus whose outgoing hath been from Eternity the word by which he made all that was made f g h The 3 principles of the outward nature Sol Sul and Mercury I The unchangeable will to the begetting of his Son the brightness of his Glory k l m n The 4 Forms that constitutes the Soul of the World.

An Explanation of the Table A   E   I   O   U     bcd   fgh   klmn   pqrst   wxyz Note aeiou being taken from between the Consonants the Consonants are found in five Divisions The first two Divisions consist of three Letters as appears bcd and fgh The third Division of four Letters klmn The fourth of five as pqrst And the fifth of four as wxyz take then the Centeral Letters out of each division and they are cglmrxy where we find just the number seven and no more then what remains are bdf hkn pqs twz which are twelve in number and no more the five Vowels being the Letters that spells the Great Name of God Jeova are thus placed the Centeral Letter is I and the first is A put that which in the Alphabet is first last and the Centeral Letter first and then they stand in this order Jeova Also this World having but the Number nine in its Arithmetick we understand the first division aptly shadows out the Divine Sol Sul and Mercury The next division being three signifies the natural Sol Sul and Mercury The third division of four shadows out the four forms to fire that constitutes the great Soul of the World from whence each Creature in the three Kingdoms of Minerals Vegitables and Animals have their immediate Life and Power of Motion either Augmentation or Dimunition The fourth division being five shadows out the five Sences which every Creature hath the Exercise of according to its nature and property and degree he stands in The last division being four rightly shadows out the four Elements so that God the Divine Nature and this whole World is truly discerned in the Alphabet that this World is made living and is maintained in life by the Word of God may not be denied Christ in and through whom the Word was made Flesh saith I am the Life of the World Now to suppose that God spake this word naked in Nature is to leave no place for a Mediator for the word is God who is the true Golden Apple and the Divine Nature is the Silver Picture in which the word was spoken into this World as it's Case or Vaile and so long as God in Christ is in this World this World is an Adequate shadow of the Original World or else how should the Kingdom of Heaven be likened unto any thing here or we be able to understand the things that are Invisible by the things that are seen and by the things that are made his Eternal Power and God-head that is the maker thereof by the 12 Signs we understand the 12 Gates of the New Jerusalem by the 7 Planets the 7 Spirits of God who are the Pillars upon which Wisdom hath built her House and stand in an Eternal Unity of Will by the Sun Moon and Stars we understand God to be the head of Christ and Christ the head of Angels and every Man who as Stars shall shine forth in our true Native Countrey as the Angels do now if we attain the Election through proving our selves to be the Called of God by obeying his Calls so as to work out our Salvation with fear and trembling and so make our Calling and Election sure But if God in Christ were not in this World to be understood then our highest Number is but nine and the ninth Plague of Egypt was darkness so that as it is true Christ is the life of the World he is also the light of the World and is that light that is true and enlightens every man that cometh into the World and is our power of discerning by him Kings Raign and Princes Decree Justice God according to his Manifestation in the Divine Nature is called Christ Christ according to his appearance in this World's Flesh is called Man. Thus God was manifest in the Flesh Also our Letters being twice 12 rightly points to the Original World where the Number 12 is found and makes this Worlds Glory a shadow And that we have the Cross placed before the Alphabet rightly signifies That the Father offered up his Son that he might reconcile by in and through him this World from the very Foundation or ever God could be manifest therein before the being of any Creature who are shadowed out by our Letters as may be known for where the use of Letters have not been they imaged their mind by Hierogliphicks using Creatures instead of Letters Also that we must Crucify our minds to Sensuality before we can attain the Spirit of Understanding or understand the Spirit vailed by the Letter Also that we have a little a in our Alphabet rightly shadows out God received up into Glory in the Person of our Lord Jesus through his Ascention to the right hand of the Majesty on high to appear for his Brethren that live by the same Faith called the Faith of the Son of God Also all Dipthongs rightly shadows out God in Christ in us when used in the Spelling of any word which should teach us it is in the power of the word which is God we form our words These things the Antients no doubt did well understand who first devised the use of Letters for it is unreasonable to believe that they were placed in this most Exellent and Significant Order by meer chance though it hath perchance by us been little understood is it to our praise that we so little value our Ancestors as to throw away what we understand not under the Notion of Popery but ought to try all things and hold fast that which is good And if the Learned will look into this work they may and I quection not but more will be found to the glory of God. Also It is seen there is but two Numeral Letters in the five Vowels that spells the for ever Blessed Name Jeova and they are J and V which make the Number six and no more pointing out that Gods Rest is not in this World but that hitherto as Christ says The Father worketh in Nature and therefore Christ worketh and till we are gathered up into the Spirit we are strangers to Gods Rest and toyl and labour eating our Bread in the sweat of our Brows and have need of Litteral Verbal teaching Also it is hereby evidently understood that all that this World gives or can give is but Beastial and therefore the number of a Man that is a Child of this World only is 666 for he hath all the three Principles and is a continual worker for life so that he cannot attain the Seventh day but is shut up under the Covenant of works notwithstanding he is a worshipper it is but in the Worldly Sanctuary he worships and only knows God Manifest in the outward Nature and Creature at the best and cannot see within the Vaile and the most only worships the Beast or his Image all which is promised to be Lively Explained in our next if this be bid welcome Also C being the Centeral Letter of the first division which shadows out the Divine Sol Sul and Mercury and signifies the first Planet Saturn which is the Coagulating Power that makes all things Visible and Tangeable And R the Centeral Letter of the fourth division that shadows out the Planet Mercy which signifies Speech It is yet far more Evident that God is both the Maker of all things and is the power of Speech his word being the Articulator else no sense could be spoken by us more then by the Beast that perisheth but through Gods word we are enabled to say Fear God and Honour the King.
