A78561 A tender salutation: or, loving epistle to such, who have a breathing in the innocent life of my friends with whom I walked in the outward observances. Also, for my relations (after the flesh) with all others professing God, and that have any breathings after the truth in the inward parts. Wherein something is declared in the power and light of God, concerning the sure foundation, and the house of God, with the inward glory, government, cloathing, feeding, non-superiority, and safety, that is in Gods habitation. With a word to the weak to establish them, that they faint not at the appearances of outward trouble for their consciences. - Whereunto is annexed a further discovery of God to my soul, concerning the spiritual temple, tabernacle and ark of Gods testimony, being the truth, life, and substance of the temple, tabernacle and ark of the testimony under the legal day. - To be read in the light, which discovers the things that be of God. - Chandler, Jacob. 1664 (1664) Wing C1927A; ESTC R227552 24,960 33

letter search the letter improve in the notions of the letter c. If you are for all this strangers to that Spirit that gave forth the letter at first and unto which the letter points and directs to that your life may not stand in a seeming outward conformity to the letter without but that your life may stand and abide in the Spirit within This is that Law of life that is in the habitation of God that is pure and perfect converting the soul inlightning the understanding whereby we may come to know him that is true even Christ Jesus the true God and eternal life Friends this Law that every particular soul that is become Gods house is guided by is not that Law from Mount Sinai but from Mount Sion Not from Mount Horeb on which Moses received the Law of the Ten Commandments and writ it on Tables of stone but the Law of the Spirit of the living God written upon the Tables of our hearts neither is it that Law written by pen and ink without but that written by the Spirit of the living God within and that must needs be a living Law that a living Spirit writes FRiends look in for this living Law of the Spirit of life for every one of ye have a measure thereof in your selves now see that you be guided by it and take not up in the outward thing but presse through and come to the Spirit and life that your standing in this day may be sure and unshaken by all the powers of the evil One that your joy may so abound springing from the true foundation as that persecution tribulation imprisonment banishment nor death it self may be able to take that Crown from you nor in the least may amaze amuse or distract you from pure joy of the Lord and from the obeying of the pure movings of the life in your souls My soul knows something of the inward feeling of this joy but its unspeakable yet glorious and as my soul comes to obey the inward teachings of the pure eternal God so I come to experience to feel the flowing in and shedding abroad of this blessed peace of God in my heart that Prisons Banishment Tribulation and Disiresse is even a light thing through the abundance of love that my soul has to God which is freely given unto me because then I can believe that my defence is the munition of Rocks and that my bread shall be given me and that my waters shall be sure Oh Friends do ye all with my soul stand in the counsel of the everlasting God and resign up freely to the Lord body soul spirit mind and all things else for he is faithful and able yea will keep that which is committed and resigned up freely unto himself who is El-shaddai the strong and mighty God and none shall be able to pull that out of his hands that is freely given and resigned to him according to his requiring You have been often a speaking after this manner but come to the life to the truth and stand in the power of it the which you will never be able to do unlesse every one in particular abide in the counsel of the Lord and hearken to his voyce and hear his living Word which is nigh viz. in the heart of every particular which teaches every one to deny himself viz. his self-will self-wisdom self-righteousnesse and understanding and all that is self to be debased laid low thrown to the dust and become nothing and what God would have him of a rich man rich in notions in gifts parts and outward services out of the life as Paul before be was converted to become poor in spirit of a strong man to be made weak of a proud man to become humble than a little child may lead him of a notional one to be made ignorant c. That now every particular may be made new again a living Temple and habitation of God to dwell in and to reach them out of his Law as they are able to receive it from him and as you come to be taught of the Lord and to obey his teachings which are pure so you shall come to be the blessed of the Lord and the Word of the Lord shall dwell richly in you and you shall become strong in the power and Spirit of the Lord the brother of low degree shall be exalted as he abides in the anointings and the ignorant that has let go his knowledge in the knowing comprehension shall be inlightned and as he waits upon the Lord and hearkens to his teachings within by the Law of the Spirit of life writ by the Spirit of the living God in his heart he I say shall come to a good understanding in the misteries of the Kingdom of God and shall know the doctrine that is of God for who teaches to profit like him Though others that feeds upon the Tree of knowledge and comprehends much in the knowing part shall slight it and call it strange doctrine delusion heresie c. But why is it because they feed not on the Tree of life but on the Tree of knowledge which apart and separate from the Tree of life is death destruction and poyson to the soul No Lordly and Majestical Superiority in Gods house AGain There is no Superiority in the Family of God the children of God are all equal there is none allowed by the Father to be one above the other to rule it and Lord it over his Brothers Conscience as we see in the world by men that would fain be reputed something as to the matters of holiness and fear of the Lord when it s not the fear of the Lord that puts them on to assume and arrogate to themselves a power over their Brothers Conscience but it s the flesh the Devil and carnal wisdom that puts them upon it Too much of this spirit was in the Disciples of old but Christ rebuked them for it The true children in the Family of God they serve one another not usurp over one another its true God may and does discover his secrets and mysteries of the Kingdom more to some than to others of his children not that they should lift up themselves above their Fellow-brethren but that they should submit to the Brother of low degree and strengthen the weak hands and feeble knees and consolate the discomforted with the overflowings of that Cup of blessing that God hath filled to him But ah how does proud man that has got into the form of godlinesse Lord it over them that he dreams are under him and so demonstrate they have an Antichristian spirit Oh Friends there is a quiet peaceable loving carriage in the children of God one towards the other according to the anointing received there 's love not only in word but in deed there 's a sweet condescending according to the requirings of God one to the other a holy bearing and forbearing in this Family there 's not a shoving with the shoulder
A Tender Salutation OR LOVING EPISTLE To such who have a breathing in the innocent life of my Friends with whom I walked in the outward observances ALSO For my Relations after the flesh with all others professing God and that have any breathings after the Truth in the inward parts WHEREIN Something is declared in the power and light of God concerning the sure Foundation and the House of God with the inward Glory Government Cloathing Feeding Non-superiority and Safety that is in Gods habitation WITH A word to the Weak to establish them that they faint not at the appearances of outward Trouble for their Consciences Whereunto is Annexed A Further discovery of God to my Soul concerning the spiritual Temple Tabernacle and Ark of Gods Testimony being the Truth Life and Substance of the Temple Tabernacle and Ark of the Testimony under the Legal day To be read in the light which discovers the things that be of God By Jacob Chandler That which we have seen and heard and felt declare we unto you that you might have fellowship with us and truly our fellowship is with the Father and with the Son Jesus Christ 1 Joh. 1.3 If our earthly house of this Tabernacle were dissolved we have a house not made with hands eternal in the heavens 2 Cor. 5.1 Printed in the Year M.DC.LXIV To all those that love the Lord Jesus in Power and Spirit of my Friends with whom I walked in the outward form As well my professing Relations after the flesh with all else unto whom these presents shall come that have any breathings after the precious Truth and life of God Grace Mercy and Peace be multiplied the everlasting love life and truth of God dwell richly in you c. DEar Friends it has been oft upon me to write unto you of the things appertaining to the Kingdom of God in Spirit and Truth But my flesh with the reasoning part withstood upon some considerations that now I 'le forbear But now after much striving of the Lord God of Power by his Spirit in my Soul I am overcome with the overcomings of the love of God to write unto you And this I find springing up in me to exhort you in tender bowels of love to look at the power light life and truth of God within in every one of ye in particular for Friends it s not the outward profession that will stand you in stead in the day of Tryal and in the day when all Secrets shall be made manifest nor approve you to God without the power and truth of God within And therefore Friends in the bowels of tender compassions let the evil minded think never so otherwise I am moved as before said to exhort you to look to your standing that you turn inward and see what foundation you are built on for Friends that which is not built on a good foundation will come to nothing if the foundation be rotten and corrupt you know whatsoever is built thereon suffers losse Therefore let every soul take heed how he build thereon for every mans works must be try'd Now if you build on the truth and power of God you build on a sure foundation but if you build on some other foundation viz. some outward observation of external performances outward gifts parts humane wisdom or the sayings of men though they may be good men c. Be it known unto you that its a false foundation its deceivable and the whole building will fall great and lamentable will be the fall thereof There is but one foundation for every poor soul that would be saved to build on and another foundation can no man lay than that which is already laid and that is Jesus Christ the power of God the wisdom and truth of God This is that ground and pillar of truth that saves to the utmost all that come unto it and build on it Therefore Friends mind whether you have built on this foundation whether the truth power and Spirit of God be the thing that you mind the foundation that you build on How to come to the foundation and build thereon and how to know in the light of God when the soul has built on the sure foundation THere must be a digging deep to build on this foundation it s not so easie as many Professors think of thou must dig down into thy innermost parts into the secrets of thy soul deep yea very deep into humility must thou sink and resign up freely and must be content to be nothing in thy will wisdom understanding c. Oh soul before thou canst find the foundation the Rock to build on and in the deep thou maist find it for 't is hid from the carnal wise man by all his wisdom he cannot search it out and all his notional knowledge though he may speak much of the foundation is too short to fathom it And now Friends if you are built on this foundation this Rock then you are immovable and cannot be shaken away from the confidence that you have springing up from hence and you are sure and stedfast and you walk in the pure fear of the Lord and you are of tender bowels and full of compassion to all the Lords little ones and you are of a meek spirit and lowly in heart and you are of tender compassion to all the Creation of God you are weak with the weak and bear a dear sympathy with the afflicted precious sons and daughters of Sion let them be under what name and notion soever if thou seest they are built on the power life and truth of God by which they breath after the everlasting well-springs of life the fountain of eternal love thou hast a principle in thee if thou art upon the sure foundation that is stirred up with an endearednesse to such a breathing soul after the pure life of God for my Friends if we have built on a good foundation then 't is certain we have a good building if we have a good Root we have a good Tree and if a good Tree there must be good fruit Now Friends by this you may come to know whether you are built upon the power life and truth of God or what foundation you are built on Let me lay it farther before you NOW if we have a good foundation we have a good building a good house and there is good order and government in this house and good dyet good meat and drink and choice cloathing and blessed safety and no Lordly or Majestick superiority over one another in this house or family that is built on the power and life of God with other good things Now that soul that hath built upon Christ the truth and power of God hath a good building a good house and it s none other but the house of God the Temple of God and God hath said I 'le dwell with you and walk in you and be your God c. And this every Saint is in particular the habitation
that the Lord God everlasting destroy cut up and consume carnal wisdom fleshly reason and fleshly will by thy Almighty power that they might never more hinder and deface thy pure holy glorious Image and breakings forth of thy innocent breath and of the pure and holy openings of thy indeared and tender love unto it And Friends in this life you shall be cloathed with this pure fine white linnen John declared of which is clean and white the which the Bride the Lambs wife is to bedeck her self with for the Marriage with the Lamb and therefore if any soul-pretends a Marriage with the Lamb and have not this fine white linnen which is the righteousnesse of the Saints he or them shall be dealt severely with he shall be taken by the Lord and bound cast out and his portion appointed with the Hypocrite where shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth for ever Such shall be for ever banished from the presence of the Lord and from the glory of his power to be punished with everlasting destruction because they obeyed not the Lord who commanded them to put on this garment this righteousnesse which is the Lord Jesus in Spirit and truth and because they obeyed not therefore sudden destruction shall overtake them Therefore Friends all be exhorted in the pure fear and dread of the Almighty God to turn in and make inquiry into this pure spotlesse matchlesse fine white-linnen which is the righteousnesse of the Lord Jesus Christ and of the Saints and you may come to know it by its effects for as it hath been already declared that it 's soft Rayment so 't is it 's soft gentle and quiet where it is and it fills the soul with peace passing the carnal understanding the work of righteousnesse shall be peace and the effect of righteousnesse quietnesse and assurance for ever And this habitation of God where this soft cloathing is to be felt is a peaceable habitation there is sure dwellings and quiet resting places And Friends this ornament beautifies the soul in the sight of God because its the comelinesse of God the beauty of God that is upon it this soul worships God in the beauties of holinesse in the Spirit of power upon the Mountain of righteousnesse And Friends this garment does not make the soul proud but humbles though its glorious apparrel yet it does not puffe up but layes the soul low it sinks the soul deep into humility and brings the soul into a free resignation to God This soul thinks not scorn to hear the voyce of the Lord out of the mouth of a Babe and Suckling but is content yea joyes in the Spirit of the Lord to see the life move in a despised instrument by the world and carnal wisdom But those that have covered but not of the Spirit of the Lord not of this righteousnesse of this pure garment they are proud despisers of them that are good fierce and cruel to the Saints betrayers of the Saints and of one another as their self-interest lies yet build upon a form of godlinesse but denying the power thereof and will own little in reality but what is in their form and way Friends be still and consider these things and examine your hearts Know you not that this is set And further Friends I find from this inward adorning and beautifying my soul to God and to the Lamb a garment of praise spring up in me which leads me forth in the pure fear of the Lord to praise magnifie and adore the pure living God and here I come to experience and to feel what it is to sing a Hymne or spiritual Song unto the Lord God of life and unto the Lamb that sits upon the Throne singing praise and hallelujah to the Lord God Omnipotent because he has taken to himself his great Rule and Raign singing with grace in my heart which heretofore I had heard the sound of and many other things the which now my soul feels the living vertue power and spirit of Oh Friends labour to feel the living power of this and of these things in your own souls and then we shall rejoyce together and sing the Song of the Lamb which none can sing but those that are redeemed from the earth i. e. from the earthly will wisdom and practice for the carnal part has nothing to do herein but the Spirit only The precious Laws of Government in Gods House and the choice Anointings and Teachings by the Spirit AND further Friends the house the habitation of God through the Spirit that I declare of has precious Laws of Government and Rule in it which before was hinted at I am made willing in the power of God to speak a little further of it The Laws of Gods house are spiritual as the house is in the Spirit so are the Laws it s called the Law of the Spirit of life and this same Law ruled and governed in Christ Jesus Rom. 8.2 and so in a measure in all the sons and daughters of God This is the Law of the new Covenant that Law that comes from God out of Sion this Law is not in the letter but in the Spirit the letter is 〈…〉 the Law is within As God said I 'le put my Laws in your mind and write them in your hearts and they shall not teach every man his neighbour saying Know the Lord for all in whose heart this Law shall be made manifest shall know me from the least to the greatest Every one in particular as they come to have the seed of God the Lamb of God the life of God to rise in them they come to experience and feel this Law in the Spirit and life teaching directing counselling and guiding into all truth and as every particular comes to obey they come to have peace with God they shall be all taught of the Lord and great shall be their peace This peace passes all understanding and its such peace that none can speak but the eternal God nor can give but himself who is the God of peace God blessed for ever And therefore Friends every one of you turn in and look for the Law in your hearts in your minds to be guided by it and as you come to see it and to be taught by it obey it and give up your minds to be guided by it which will guide from sin Iniquity and transgression from the world the pride of it the fashions of it the lust of it and it will guide you into righteousness into life and peace with the eternal God Friends think not this manner of speech strange and contemptible I know in the spiritual knowing part whereof I do affirm and have had an inward feeling abundantly whereof I declare Spend not all your precious time in the Law of the letter written on paper with pen and ink without the Law in the Spirit written in your hearts by the Spirit of the living God Oh Friends what if you should never so much study the
of God through the Spirit this house is erected by the finger and power of Jehovah Tzebaot the Lord of Hoast The inward pure Government and shining glory and requirings in the house or habitation of God in the Spirit AND farther Friends this house of God has good government for its the Lord Jesus that rules and governs in this house and no other has right to govern but himself for it s his own and hath bought it and purchased it not with corruptible things as silver and gold but with incorruptible even with his own precious blood Friends when Christ is born in the soul of any whether Jew or Gentile bond or free the government is put upon his shoulder and to that end is this Son given and the Child born viz. that the government may be upon his shoulder that he might rule and govern and raign in the soul in his own house and he will raign in righreousnesse and governs with pure Laws of light and freedom not with Laws of darknesse and bondage The pure and everlasting God layes not hard service upon his children and servants he imposes no heavy task upon his family but what is in the pure freedom of the Spirit his requirings are according to the growth of his children and servants were it not there would be disorder instead of order but no no my Friends there is nothing but pure order in the house of God The ever-blessed God rules governs and orders all in pure love pure light pure fear taught by himself and not by the precepts of men pure righteousnesse pure truth and all inward Now to see a Saint walk and acting without from these pure Laws of God within oh what a great shine and glory does it cast upon all it does oh then if so great a shine without how great is that glory within it being all glorious it being that more excellent glory it being the brightnesse of the Fathers glory Oh Friends my soul admires this glory Friends sink down from all your selfnesse and somethingnesse and come into this most excellent glory and lie with my soul still from self-acting before this glorious God that this glory may passe besore us i. e. that it might more and more manifest its self unto us that we may come to be transformed from glory to glory by the pure Spirit of the living God Now Friends to see an house in such an order under such a government is to see it in a comely order to see it all fait and to have no spot in it Of the heavenly bread and waters of life that is provided eat and drank of in the family and house of God in the Spirit of the living God THere is not only Rule in this house but there is plentiful spiritual provision made for the whole family of God and duly administred by the hand of living power and vertue whereby it gives living spiritual nourishment for growth to encrease with the encrease of God the eternal pure God gives it the bread of life and the waters of life to eat of and to drink of and the soul being in a living state eats and drinks thereof and is refreshed and cryes out evermore Father give me of this bread of life and these waters of life Oh my soul though the e●ternal grace of God have an internal or inward caste hereof and it cryes and breaths in the pure fear and Spirit of God after more and I find it s not that I might eat and drink hereof alone but that all might come in the fear of the living God to eat and drink hereof also with my soul that we might rejoyce together in the Spirit and that we might sing a Hymn and spiritual Song singing and making melody in out hearts to the living and pure fountain of life giving pure and spiritual thanks alwayes to God in the name i. e. power and Spirit of the Lord Jesus Christ Oh Friends every soul that is surely fixed on this foundation of God which alwayes stands sure have a measure of this heavenly food viz. of this bread of life and waters of life dealt forth unto him according to his growth and appetite that his soul hath Now we ought and it s our duty to be thankful with or for such a measure that we have and to eat and drink to the glory of God Friends if it hold true in the outward much more for the inward But Friends inlarge your appetite open your mouth wide and the Lord will fill it Labour for a greater hunger and thirst after this true bread and water of life and you shall be filled satisfied and refreshed Oh Friends thirst not hunger not so much after the outward observance which is a spending your money for that which is not bread and your labour for that which satisfies not and your strength and time for that which perishes But labour to feed more of this true bread that cometh down from God out of heaven the which whosoever eats of is blessed and to drink of those waters that runs by the Throne of God whose streams make glad the heart of the City the habitation the house of God here Friends does my soul come to experience what is meant by eating of the fruit of the Tree of life that John declared of Rev. 11.7 And here I come to understand know feel and to eat of the hidden Manna that is spoke of in Rev. 11.17 its Manna that is hid from the wise and prudent of this world but revealed to them that fear and love the pure God in Spirit and truth and such eats thereof to their souls nourishing and refreshing Here my soul comes truly to eat of the flesh and to drink of the blood of the Lord Jesus and so comes to have life in it for this is meat or nourishment indeed and this is drink or refreshment indeed I may eat long enough of the elementary things before my soul is nourished and refreshed in the eternal life but if my soul eats and drinks of this spiritual food then my soul comes to have life and refreshment as my soul knows right well through the Spirit Now in eating and drinking of the true bread and water of life we come to have communion with the body and with the blood of Christ for this communion is in the Spirit and not in the letter whose praise is of God and not of men for men are carnal and this is spiritual But this I know will seem strange to a formal person but let it its true and faithful yea and our communion as Saints is in the Spirit in eating this spiritual bread and wine of the Kingdom of God and not in the outward visible elementary things in the pure Spirit is our pure communion and our living communion in and by the living Spirit Here I come to know what it is to eat of the Supper of the Lord amd to drink of the new Wine in the Fathers Kingdom
vail that is upon you that you might come forth from darknesse and walk more in the light of life A word to the Weak to establish and direct them that they faint nat at the sight of the outward Adversary in their Meetings AND Friends There is a desire risen in me that every one of you in particular may come so to be established on that sure foundation the everlasting Rock of Ages that you may not be so soon shaken away many of you from the confidence that you seem to have for God and Truth as you are perswaded I speak not this to reproach you but in the power of God to establish you Friends your 〈◊〉 going forth out of the power of God into the flesh is it that makes you faint in the day of adversity and in the face of your enemy Therefore Friends if you would be valiant for the truth mind the life of God in your souls reside and dwell in it and give up all unto it fix your mind steddy upon it and stay thereon and as thou comes to this O soul thou shalt be kept in peace and quiet off from the trouble and disquiet that the flesh raises up for God will keep him in perfect peace whose mind is staid upon him Friends it ill becomes those that fears the Lord to be of such a fearful frightful spirit as I have observed there is sometimes in your Meetings though it be but of suspition of an invasion by the enemy without Friends the desire in my soul is that you would mind the life the spirit in you and be still and quiet in the patience of the life and Lamb of God according to the measure in you and as you mind this and dwell in this your fears and terrors of the flesh will abate and your courage advance for the life of the pure God crucifies the flesh which leads to death The Spirit of God is a Spirit of love and of a sound mind it casts out such fear and it is not a Spirit of slavish fear so that my Friends if you be the sons and daughters of God why then you are led by the Spirit and not by the flesh which is fearful sinful c. And if you have the Spirit and live in the Spirit why then it has mortified the deeds of the flesh which are evil c. See Rom. 8.5 to the 17. verse They which are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh and they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit Slavish fear and cowardise for truth is of the flesh and to be fleshly and carnally minded is death to the soul but to be spiritually minded is life Oh Friends it has been a trouble to my spirit sometimes to see the distraction perturbation and trouble that many have entered into in their Meetings at a shallow c. Oh Friends labor to crucifie this old man with his fleshly meanbers and branches that springs forth into the visible life and what you have in the invisible life watch to have it strengthned and live in the measure you have attained of this invisible or inward life in your own particulars And if any further of the coming in of the visible enemy be into your Meetings in the discharging what you are perswaded to be your duty which is too probable and likely be still and quiet in your selves sweetly composed with your mind fixed upon God enjoying communion in the life and Spirit of God according to your particular measure keeping steddy in the beholdings of the life and be in the serious pursuit of it and do not suffer your thoughts and your minds to straggle in the least no not for a moment though the enemy provoke you be diligent in the watch that the enemy of your soul the invisible enemy break not in to overthrow your peace and communion with God and destroy your pursuit in the life and so your peace being lost your watch down and the enemy broke in then you enter into the flesh in the troubles fears tempests and disquiets which the life is freed from c. and so will be ready to say any thing do any thing so that you might be acquitted of the enemy without and released of a Prison and banishment for thy body which affrights many poor hearts who considers not the Prison the banishment and darknesse and trouble that their souls is in in the want of the light life Spirit peace and communion with God Oh Friends I say unto you all watch watch the life and go not from upon any terms be surely built on the sure foundation and you shall be able to say in the same life according to thy measure as David I am fixed I am fixed O God I am fixed O happy state here is the only safety And now unto the Lord once more I commit you that every one of you may so come to be established on that sure foundation the everlasting Rock of Ages and build so upon the power and life of God that Prisons Fines Persecutions the gates of hell even death it self may not prevail against you non affright you Amen Some further discovery of Gods house or habitation through the Spirit And according to my measure declaring of the spiritual Temple or Tabernacle and Ark of the Testimony the Truth Life and Substance of the Temple or Tabernacle and Ark of the Testimony under the Legal dispensation to be read in the light which manifesls the things that are of God FRiends The house and habitation of God is called the Temple or Tabernacle of God where God dwells walks moves c. and this was shewed by the Temple under the Law in which Temple or Tabernacle God was graciously present with his people in that day but now dwells no longer in Temples made with hands but in his people and children who are the Temple and hat itation of God through the Spirit Though my Friends some do imagine that the Legal Temple or Tabernacle is a figure holding forth to us the outward Ordinances viz. Preaching Praying Supper Water Baptism c. And some calls this a new Iemple state and 't is to be feared there do abide and look no further or very little higher than just to draw from it the outward observation but God hath revealed it otherwise to me and a necessity is laid upon me being called to it not to deny it In order to your understanding of this Consider I. That in the Legal Temple was the Ark of the Testament and this was the Ark of his presence Now this Ark figured forth the Lord Jesus in the Spirit which dwells in his people or particularly in a Saint this is the Ark of the New Testament Isa 42.6 Mal. 3.1 which also is called the New Covenant That Ark was Legal this is a Gospel-Ark that was an outward Ark this an inward Ark that was an Ark in a form this an Ark in the power that
