and_o have_v not_o at_o any_o time_n take_v advantage_n against_o those_o who_o without_o law_n have_v wrong_v we_o but_o have_v in_o our_o innocency_n be_v willing_a to_o bear_v the_o reproach_n of_o those_o that_o have_v reproach_v we_o and_o to_o endure_v the_o hard_a affliction_n of_o those_o that_o have_v afflict_v we_o and_o it_o be_v well_o know_v that_o we_o have_v not_o at_o any_o time_n seek_v a_o occasion_n against_o those_o that_o have_v deal_v cruel_o with_o we_o but_o have_v seek_v their_o eternal_a good_a and_o it_o be_v also_o well_o know_v that_o we_o have_v not_o behave_v ourselves_o disorderly_a or_o tumultuous_o among_o any_o people_n but_o in_o all_o sobriety_n meekness_n and_o fear_n we_o have_v hold_v forth_o our_o testimony_n and_o have_v labour_v in_o the_o work_n of_o the_o gospel_n that_o all_o may_v be_v gather_v into_o the_o fellowship_n of_o it_o and_o come_v to_o the_o enjoyment_n of_o the_o love_n and_o peace_n that_o be_v in_o it_o and_o in_o these_o thing_n we_o have_v manifest_v a_o christian_n life_n in_o its_o nature_n which_o be_v a_o state_n beyond_o the_o jew_n and_o gentile_n and_o apostate_n who_o be_v not_o yet_o attain_v unto_o the_o glotious_a resurrection_n of_o christ_n nor_o to_o the_o mystery_n of_o the_o fellowship_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o as_o we_o have_v receive_v christ_n jesus_n the_o lord_n so_o do_v we_o walk_v in_o he_o and_o be_v root_v and_o ground_v in_o his_o love_n and_o by_o his_o power_n we_o be_v preserve_v to_o abide_v faithful_a and_o to_o persevere_v in_o the_o work_n unto_o which_o he_o have_v call_v we_o and_o by_o how_o much_o we_o be_v afflict_v for_o his_o sake_n by_o so_o much_o the_o more_o do_v he_o cause_v his_o joy_n to_o spring_n and_o abound_v in_o our_o heart_n so_o that_o tho●gh_o we_o be_v afflict_v yet_o we_o be_v not_o cast_v down_o and_o though_o we_o be_v persecute_v yet_o we_o be_v not_o forsake_v for_o the_o lord_n be_v with_o we_o in_o all_o our_o

therefore_o you_o people_n behold_v a_o christian_n life_n which_o in_o this_o day_n be_v manifest_v as_o in_o time_n of_o old_a for_o the_o lord_n have_v raise_v a_o people_n who_o be_v of_o the_o seed_n of_o abraham_n and_o he_o establish_v his_o covenant_n with_o they_o for_o ever_o and_o he_o have_v say_v in_o his_o counsel_n sure_o in_o blessing_n i_o will_v bless_v they_o and_o in_o

plant_n from_o among_o they_o and_o will_v lay_v waste_v the_o briar_n and_o thorn_n that_o trouble_v they_o and_o they_o shall_v grow_v in_o my_o love_n and_o increase_v in_o my_o life_n for_o i_o be_o their_o god_n and_o they_o be_v my_o people_n and_o all_o generation_n shall_v call_v they_o bless_v now_o forasmuch_o as_o these_o thing_n be_v so_o and_o that_o the_o lord_n have_v call_v we_o unto_o peace_n and_o the_o fruit_n of_o his_o spirit_n do_v so_o manife_v itself_o through_o we_o then_o why_o be_v it_o that_o we_o bear_v the_o affliction_n of_o this_o present_a time_n for_o as_o we_o follow_v peace_n with_o all_o man_n and_o walk_v blameless_o towards_o all_o man_n so_o ought_v we_o to_o receive_v encouragement_n in_o the_o same_o and_o not_o to_o be_v oppress_v for_o our_o obedience_n unto_o god_n for_o as_o the_o life_n that_o we_o live_v be_v the_o life_n of_o christ_n so_o it_o be_v not_o in_o our_o own_o power_n to_o make_v choice_n of_o any_o thing_n in_o our_o own_o will_n but_o as_o we_o have_v receive_v christ_n and_o life_n in_o his_o life_n so_o by_o he_o alone_o we_o be_v dispose_v and_o it_o be_v his_o leading_n that_o we_o follow_v &_o we_o know_v his_o way_n be_v peace_n and_o his_o life_n eternal_a rest_n therefore_o all_o people_n of_o all_o sort_n wait_v in_o the_o light_n to_o know_v a_o christian_n life_n and_o content_v not_o yourselves_o with_o a_o christian_n name_n for_o except_v you_o be_v regenerate_v and_o bear_v again_o you_o can_v enter_v into_o the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n and_o howsoever_o you_o may_v be_v clothe_v with_o the_o name_n of_o christian_n yet_o while_o the_o heathen_a nature_n lodge_v in_o you_o the_o uncleanness_n remain_v upon_o you_o and_o your_o christian_n name_n will_v leave_v you_o in_o the_o day_n of_o your_o calamity_n and_o then_o you_o will_v see_v the_o want_n of_o a_o christian_n nature_n and_o so_o if_o whilst_o you_o seem_v to_o be_v something_o in_o a_o christian_n name_v you_o be_v find_v nothing_o in_o a_o christian_n nature_n you_o do_v but_o deceive_v yourselves_o in_o your_o imagination_n and_o now_o the_o day_n of_o the_o lord_n shine_v forth_o and_o the_o light_n of_o it_o spread_v abroad_o and_o he_o be_v gather_v the_o scatter_a in_o the_o covenant_n of_o his_o life_n and_o with_o the_o light_n of_o his_o day_n he_o be_v visit_v the_o nation_n and_o he_o proclaim_v his_o salvation_n in_o the_o word_n of_o his_o power_n and_o that_o be_v his_o live_a testimony_n in_o every_o man_n and_o the_o witness_n of_o it_o be_v true_a and_o faithful_a and_o unto_o this_o must_v every_o man_n turn_v his_o mind_n if_o ever_o he_o come_v to_o have_v life_n in_o christ_n or_o come_v to_o witness_v a_o christian_n state_n and_o therefore_o every_o one_o be_v to_o bow_v unto_o that_o which_o reprove_v they_o for_o anger_n and_o envy_n and_o malice_n and_o deceit_n for_o that_o be_v god_n witness_n who_o word_n be_v life_n and_o let_v your_o ear_n be_v open_a to_o its_o counsel_n and_o cast_v not_o behind_o you_o its_o holy_a testimony_n but_o incline_v with_o diligence_n and_o obey_v it_o with_o carefulness_n that_o by_o it_o you_o may_v be_v lead_v out_o of_o all_o your_o own_o way_n where_o you_o be_v scatter_v &_o may_v come_v into_o unity_n and_o fellowship_n with_o those_o who_o be_v by_o it_o gather_v and_o so_o worship_n god_n in_o his_o live_a spirit_n in_o which_o there_o be_v no_o condemnation_n and_o there_o you_o will_v know_v a_o christian_n life_n by_o translation_n &_o then_o you_o will_v cease_v from_o persecution_n and_o live_v in_o love_n and_o peace_n and_o unity_n with_o those_o that_o obey_v the_o gospel_n and_o where_o there_o be_v unity_n there_o be_v no_o persecution_n so_o all_o ruler_n teacher_n and_o people_n be_v sober_a and_o moderate_a and_o let_v not_o innocent_a christian_n be_v the_o object_n of_o your_o severity_n but_o wait_v for_o the_o day_n of_o redemption_n which_o be_v come_v and_o be_v yet_o come_v that_o you_o may_v all_o feel_v the_o power_n of_o god_n to_o change_v your_o hair_n who_o have_v all_o heart_n in_o his_o hand_n and_o that_o the_o weight_n of_o god_n power_n may_v go_v over_o all_o that_o in_o you_o which_o at_o any_o time_n provoke_v you_o to_o anger_n and_o evil_a will_n and_o draw_v you_o to_o exercise_v cruelty_n upon_o the_o meek_a of_o the_o earth_n and_o that_o it_o may_v all_o be_v subdue_v and_o beat_v down_o into_o the_o obedience_n of_o christ_n that_o the_o low_a meek_a humble_a spirit_n may_v arise_v in_o you_o and_o by_o its_o own_o power_n dispose_v you_o and_o order_v you_o for_o this_o be_v the_o day_n of_o the_o lord_n gather_v though_o it_o be_v a_o day_n of_o sore_a affliction_n and_o though_o many_o be_v yet_o a_o far_o off_o yet_o be_v the_o lord_n fetch_v they_o in_o for_o the_o cord_n of_o his_o love_n be_v very_o strong_a and_o he_o be_v gather_v together_o in_o one_o even_o in_o christ_n in_o who_o love_n and_o life_n many_o be_v set_v down_o in_o rest_n and_o inherit_v the_o riches_n of_o his_o grace_n in_o heavenly_a place_n and_o many_o be_v draw_v night_n to_o their_o habitation_n who_o have_v be_v wander_v as_o sheep_n without_o a_o shepherd_n but_o now_o be_v return_v to_o the_o shepherd_n and_o bishop_n of_o their_o soul_n who_o pasture_n be_v fresh_a and_o green_a with_o which_o he_o do_v satisfy_v every_o breathe_a soul_n that_o can_v live_v by_o any_o other_o food_n so_o if_o you_o will_v hear_v and_o obey_v god_n spirit_n in_o yourselves_o then_o may_v you_o do_v well_o and_o may_v come_v into_o unity_n and_o fellowship_n with_o we_o who_o of_o the_o spirit_n be_v bear_v and_o love_v the_o lord_n jesus_n ch●ist_v in_o sincerity_n but_o if_o you_o refuse_v the_o heavenly_a call_n of_o

that_o you_o will_v make_v we_o come_v unto_o you_o then_o do_v you_o deceive_v yourselves_o with_o a_o uncertain_a hope_n for_o as_o we_o abide_v in_o the_o life_n in_o which_o we_o be_v gather_v and_o in_o which_o we_o have_v fellowship_n with_o god_n and_o one_o another_o it_o be_v most_o certain_a that_o if_o you_o will_v not_o come_v unto_o we_o we_o can_v never_o return_v unto_o you_o and_o forasmuch_o as_o god_n in_o his_o mercy_n have_v manifest_v his_o life_n in_o we_o so_o be_v our_o beleif_n in_o it_o and_o our_o testimony_n be_v unto_o it_o and_o the_o life_n that_o we_o
