A86671	A true separation between the power of the spirit, and the imitation of Antichrist. The difference between the pretious and the vile, between the saints and professors, between the power and the form, between the wise virgins who are so indeed, and them who have gotten the name, but want the power.	Hubberthorn, Richard, 1628-1662.	1654 (1654)	Wing H3238; Thomason E809_16; ESTC R207570	8,420	9

this light is the condemnation of him who hates Christ and by this light you are made manifest to be out of the love of God which you talk of and are Enemies to the cross of Christ And you which have had experiences and now talk of them and your minds being turned from the light of Christ which wrought experience into the experience your experience is dead and is become an Idol that which wrought the experience I own to be of God but you not abiding in that which did wound and torment plague the beastly nature in you so that nature got up again and the deadly wound of the Beast was not healed and now the earthly wil and wisdom now stands in you and so you are got from under the Judgments of God and from under the Cross And now you tell of what experiencies you have had what ye have passed through but are old and dead and cannot witness any present workings and present power for that which now speaks in you of the experience is not that which wrought the experience but that which now speaks is that which was judged and tormented when the experience was wrought and now the witness being slain which did once arise in you now you make merry and rejoice over the witness and now you are at ease and take liberty in the flesh and so feeds that which is for Judgment and must now be judged by the Just who have turned out of the way from the light of Christ in you and so all that you have known or passed through is not accepted for you must be brought back to the entrance to the light in your consciences that in it you might see where you turned out of the way and so lost your guide and so are backsliders being turned back again into the earthly nature and now by the light of Christ which your minds are gone out from which light shines into our hearts by it we see you walking in darkness and from your earthly wisdom telling of old experiences which once in the light you saw but this light will now condemn you for turning from it and being disobedient to it for now is the true light arising and risen by which the world shall be judged in righteousness which will bring you under Judgment and a day of trouble shall come upon you such as never was from the beginning of the world wherein all you must be judged who live without the fear of God and are got into a carnal rest and security and into a fleshly liberty and say whatsoever you do it is not sin and that you cannot see sin and so your eye is blinded and you hate the light of Christ in you which should let you see your sins and so you are yet in your sins and cannot witness any redemption by Christ nor through obedience in the Cross and so whatsoever you do profess in words or what experience soever you have known or passed through all your profession I deny and all your experiences who do not now experience the daily cross of Christ nor do not walk answerable to the light in your consciences for by it you must all be judged and all your joy and carnall rejoycing in your fleshly liberty shall be turned into sorrow and bitter lamentation the Lord of Host hath spoken it who will perform his word The word of the Lord to all you who do wait for and expect to see a Christ come without you with a carnal eye and to see an outward power and outward signes and miracles to be wrought without you whereby the world shall be convinced and gainsayers convinced and those things you look for carnally to be fulfilled without you and so are the adulterous generation which seeks after a signe and there shall be no signe given you but the signe of the Prophet Ionah and as Ionah was 3 days and 3 nights in the whales belly so shall the son of man be 3 days and 3 nights in the heart of the earth Now you whose winds are without looking for outward things your waiting is in vain for you never came to see the things fulfilled nor brought to pass which you wait for Therefore to you I say turn your minds within to the light of Christ to wait in it that you may know the things fulfilled within you for the comming of Christ is within and that which convinceth of sin is within the light of Christ in the conscience and this being hearkned unto and obeyed it gives power against sin and this power we witness made manifest within us and this power we have received from Christ which doth convince the world of sin and by this power the gainsayers are convinced and this is the same power as ever was and the same Christ as ever was and the same eternal words of God we do witness which was in the beginning which word is Christ and we do speak it forth in his own power as we have received it and this word of power we have which makes the Devils to tremble and makes the Heathens to rage and by it marveilous works are wrought for now do the blind see the deaf hear and the lame walk and they who many years have walked in darkness and trouble of mind and terrour of conscience and under many infirmities who have spent their time and money upon Physitians and Parish Priests and have not been healed or cured are now restored and healed freely without money and without price and the Lepers are cured and the Leprosie is taken away and the poor receive the Gospel and this we witness to be fulfilled in us and in the world where this Gospel is and where it hath been preached and this is the everlasting Gospel which is now preached which we are witnesses of and Ministers of according to our measure and this Gospel is not the Letter for many poor souls who have been many years in trouble and found no peace nor satisfaction have had the Letter and it hath administred no comfort unto them though they have applyed the promises to that which was wounded yet they have not been eased but are still in trouble til Jesus Christs glad tidings did appear who is the Gospel and the glad tidings and they who witness him come and made manifest they do witness a freedome and deliverance out of this condition which they could not doe while their minds was without looking for a Christ without and for a power without and to find life from the Letter without and this we witness to be but a dead Letter and did give us no life at all but we were kept in darkness and blindness while we called the Letter the light and the Letter the word and the letter the rule but now the true light hath appeared which lets us see that Christ is the light which lighteth every one that cometh into the world and in this light we see that God is the word and not the Letter for the word was in the beginning but the letter was not in the beginning and in this light we see that the Letter without us is not the rule but the spirit which gave it forth and this spirit is within which is our rule and brings us to walk according to the Letter which was spoken forth from the Spirit which was their guide rule which spake it forth for the prophesie came not in old time by the will of man but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the holy Ghost and the same speaks now in Sons and Daughters as they are moved and do witnesse the Scriptures to be fulfilled in us and Christ to be in us which you look for without you and this power which doth convince of sin within and the word is within in the heart by which word we are sanctified and made clean and we do witness the Virgin state and are Virgins and do follow the Lamb and are redeemed from the earth but you we deny to be Virgins and whose minds are without turned from the light of Christ which is within and shines in the conscience which should exercise your conscience but your minds being without in the earth is defiled with the earth and your experiences are defiled being adulterate from the Lord and are no saints nor Virgins This from the spirit of the Lord I was moved to declare and publish abroad in the world that those who are wise in their own eyes in the earthly wisdome professing high things as to be Virgins and Saints may by the light of Christ in them see themselves to be yet living in their own conceits taking liberty in the flesh to walk in the lusts of it And that all simple hearted ones may be turned to the light of Christ in them to be taught by it and may not be deceived by such who professe much in words but hath brought forth no fruit to God but seeks to draw out the mind of the simple ones who seek after the truth into a liberty in the flesh and for your sake who are simple do I speak to the light of Christ in you which shall bear me witness before the Lord and will convince all who have it A servant of the Lord for your sakes and in love to all your souls desires that all your minds may be turned within to the true Teacher which will lead into the feat of God giving heed unto it RICHARD HVBBERTHORNE FINIS
