A84796	A message from the Lord, to the Parliament of England. That you may all take warning, and be ye all forewarned, that you act not in the steps of your forefathers, whom the Lord hath cast out as an abominable thing, as he hath done all rulers in all ages and generations, which have sought themselves, and established laws in their own wills, whereby the just have suffered, and now do suffer: the people which the Lord hath chosen are trodden upon, and the powers of the earth have set themselves against the mighty power of the Lord in them. But now is the Lord arising to plead the cause of the just, and woe for ever to all Sions adversaries. / By him who is a lover of your souls, and a lover of Israels common-wealth, whom the Lord is returning out of captivity, to serve him in their own land in perfect freedom. Geo. Fox.	Fox, George, 1624-1691.	1654 (1654)	Wing F1863; Thomason E812_2; ESTC R202175	14,507	15

letter is the word sprinkling Infants Baptism a little bread and wine the Communion Matthew Mark Luke and Iohn is the Gospel Hebrew Greek and Latine is the original Now with the light of Christ Iesus all this doctrine is seen praised be God to be false and contrary to the Scriptures they told us of mediate means and a mediate call and this we see was mediate and what is mediate is natural and the natural man receives not the things of God and they which Ministred it forth their call was mediate this we do see with the immediate spirit of the Lord God praised be the Lord God and with it we do witness the spirit that gave forth the Scriptures every one according to measure which brings to witness the Scriptures which saith The Church is in God 1 Thes 1.1 And the Baptism with one spirit into one body the spirit of the Lord which we are all made to drink into and the bread which we break is the body of Christ and the cup which we bless in which is the Communion is the blood of Christ which washeth from all sin and the word we come to witness which was in the beginning before Hebrew Greek and Latine was and Babell whom God confounded into many languages so they that keep in the many languages keep from Christ for he redeems out of languages tongues kindreds and Nations and people praised be the Lord God and all who are here are all one and all who are in Tongues kindreds Nations and languages are in confusion not redeemed unto Christ such the Lord sent his Prophets and sends his Prophets to Nations to kindreds languages Tongues and People as you may read in the Revelations which now is fulfilled and fulfilling in these days praised be the Lord God for ever And we do witness the everlasting Gospel the substance of Matthew Mark Luke and Iohn the substance of those words and they be the Ministers of the Letter which told us those four books were the Gospel And we do witness God is the Fountain who makes Ministers by his will as Paul was as he often declares and his call not of man nor by man but by the will of God so Oxford and Cambridge which is by man and the will of man makes Ministers with the eternal light of Christ which was before Oxford and Cambridge those Fountains were we do them comprehend and see with it they must be condemned who are bloody Persecutors and Lyars and no Ministers of Christ Iesus to the Lake Therefore to the light in all your consciences I speak which Christ Iesus hath enlightned you withal that with it you may come to read the Apostles words who was in the light and Christs words which proceeded from the light and the Prophets words which was in the light which witnessed Christ Iesus who was in the light Now to the light in you all I speak which never changes that with it you may come to see what the Apostles which were in the light and Christ Iesus the light and the Prophets who were in the light testified against you may see with the light which never changes not to hold it up and to you this is the word of God the cursed thing may be rooted out of the Land Baal and his posterity which is cursed for ever which is in that nature which acts contrary to the light To the light in all your consciences I speak that with it you may see many deceivers which be entered into the world many Anti-christs which be entered into the world that 's the world which hates the light of Christ Iesus which he hath enlightned every one withall and those are the Deceivers that are turned from this light and those the Anti-christs that are entred into the world which are turned from this light But it s not possible that they should deceive the Elect which dwell in the light which comprehends the world and all the Deceivers and Anti-christs and the world that hates it and are turned from it In this light doth the Saints the Elect dwell which condemns all the world which hates it and the Antichrists and the Deceivers that are turned from it for he is no Anti-christ nor Deceiver that walks in the light which Christ Iesus hath enlightned withal Therfore to the light in you all I speak that with it you may come to witness the life that gave for●h the Scriptures and with it come to have them opened again then you need not have any private Interpreter for they are of none the private Interpreter is in the world in his own will among them which hates the light which the Scripture came not by the will of man but holy men of God spoke them forth as they were moved by the holy Ghost and the manifestation of the spirit is given to every man to profit withal Now mind your profiting in the spirit in grace in wisdom in temperance and in understanding that you may come to witness the life that gave forth the Scriptures which was before the Scripture was given forth and with it they are read again and cannot be read and understood without it which was before the Scripture was given forth And all the Sects and Opinions are in that nature that hath the words declared from this life but not this life but are strangers to the life of God and the Covenant of Promise but onely the words by hearsay in the world there 's many ways many meanings many senses many thoughts given upon those words declared from the life with such as are strangers from the life all who be in the light and life are one if they be ten thousand and with it all Sects Opinions larrs and Strifes are seen comprehended and condemned Images and Image-makers and false Worshippers who have the Letter but not the life there the devil brings Scripture with the light all that is condemned which leads into the worship of God who is light who is a spirit and with the life all that is judged and to you all this is the word of God to the light in all your consciences I speak which is your Teacher loving it which is your condemnation hating it and walking in it you shall receive the light of life and it will teach you lying in bed and walking up and down how you have spent your time and do spend your time from him who is a lover of your souls and your eternal good given forth from the spirit of the living God for the cleansing the Land of evil doers and setting up the righteous Law and establishing righteousness and the perfect Law of God which is according to that in every mans conscience which respects no mans person but convinceth him that doth as a Transgressor of the Law of God So God Almighty direct you that fear him and to you all I have cleared my conscience to the light of Christ Iesus in you I speak which will condemn you
