a_o letter_n present_v unto_o alderman_n fouke_n lord_n mayor_n of_o london_n from_o the_o two_o witness_n and_o prisoner_n of_o jesus_n christ_n in_o newgate_n as_o a_o eternal_a witness_n unto_o he_o with_o a_o declaration_n unto_o the_o recorder_n steel_n and_o the_o lord_n chief_a justice_n rowles_n with_o the_o whole_a bench_n and_o jury_n and_o in_o general_a unto_o all_o civil_a magistrate_n and_o jury_n in_o the_o world_n john_n reeve_n and_o lodowick_n muggleton_n the_o two_o last_o spiritual_a witness_n and_o true_a prophet_n and_o only_a minister_n of_o the_o everlasting_a gospel_n by_o commission_n from_o the_o holy_a spirit_n of_o the_o true_a god_n the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n god_n and_o man_n in_o one_o person_n bless_v to_o all_o eternity_n by_o virtue_n of_o our_o commission_n receive_v by_o voice_n of_o word_n from_o the_o glorious_a mouth_n of_o the_o only_a true_a god_n upon_o the_o throne_n of_o glory_n the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n we_o shall_v make_v manifest_a unto_o man_n what_o the_o foundation_n be_v of_o the_o power_n of_o the_o civil_a magistrate_n and_o that_o he_o ought_v not_o to_o meddle_v with_o spiritual_a thing_n which_o god_n have_v reserve_v himself_o not_o allow_v any_o man_n to_o touch_v they_o upon_o pain_n of_o eternal_a death_n but_o those_o only_a by_o he_o anoint_v for_o that_o purpose_n first_o we_o declare_v that_o the_o scripture_n be_v give_v by_o inspiration_n of_o the_o holy_a spirit_n therefore_o except_o the_o magistrate_n be_v inspire_v with_o the_o same_o spirit_n as_o those_o that_o speak_v the_o scripture_n they_o ought_v not_o to_o judge_v any_o man_n by_o they_o but_o ought_v rather_o to_o yield_v obedience_n themselves_o unto_o holy_a writ_n or_o they_o must_v perish_v to_o eternity_n again_o we_o declare_v from_o the_o holy_a spirit_n that_o since_o god_n become_v flesh_n no_o civil_a magistrate_n have_v any_o authority_n from_o above_o to_o be_v the_o judge_n of_o any_o man_n faith_n because_o it_o be_v a_o spiritual_a invisible_a gift_n from_o god_n that_o give_v a_o man_n assurance_n of_o everlasting_a life_n but_o the_o magistrate_n authority_n be_v to_o judge_v the_o civil_a law_n of_o the_o land_n which_o be_v ground_v only_o upon_o reason_n but_o the_o thing_n of_o eternity_n be_v from_o god_n who_o be_v from_o eternity_n to_o eternity_n therefore_o faith_n be_v the_o evidence_n of_o thing_n hope_v for_o and_o reason_n be_v judge_n of_o thing_n that_o be_v visible_a as_o for_o you_o that_o be_v skilful_a in_o the_o law_n of_o reason_n as_o soon_o as_o you_o hear_v a_o action_n to_o be_v a_o breach_n of_o the_o law_n you_o understand_v present_o what_o punishment_n belong_v to_o the_o fact_n therefore_o the_o apostle_n say_v the_o magistrate_n be_v the_o minister_n of_o god_n for_o good_a to_o they_o that_o do_v well_o and_o a_o terror_n to_o the_o evil_a doer_n again_o we_o declare_v from_o the_o lord_n that_o no_o magistrate_n by_o his_o power_n from_o the_o law_n of_o reason_n aught_o to_o usurp_v the_o law_n of_o faith_n into_o his_o authority_n because_o the_o law_n of_o reason_n be_v utter_o ignorant_a of_o the_o law_n of_o faith_n the_o one_o be_v carnal_a and_o the_o other_o be_v spiritual_a therefore_o what_o magistrate_n soever_o take_v upon_o he_o to_o be_v the_o judge_n of_o we_o who_o be_v the_o messenger_n of_o faith_n in_o the_o true_a god_n they_o be_v enemy_n to_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o shall_v sure_o perish_v to_o eternity_n again_o from_o the_o lord_n jesus_n we_o forewarn_v you_o that_o be_v magistrate_n before_o it_o be_v too_o late_o that_o you_o tread_v not_o in_o the_o lord_n mayor_n step_n presumptuous_o to_o take_v upon_o you_o to_o judge_v this_o commission_n of_o the_o two_o edge_a sword_n of_o god_n put_v into_o our_o mouth_n which_o if_o you_o be_v leave_v so_o to_o do_v it_o will_v cut_v you_o in_o sunder_o from_o the_o presence_n of_o our_o god_n to_o all_o eternity_n for_o our_o god_n be_v a_o consume_a fire_n who_o do_v pronounce_v we_o curse_v to_o eternity_n have_v we_o not_o obey_v his_o voice_n therefore_o we_o perfect_o know_v who_o ever_o be_v leave_v great_a or_o small_a to_o speak_v evil_a of_o this_o commission_n which_o god_n have_v put_v unto_o we_o by_o call_v it_o blasphemy_n delusion_n a_o devil_n or_o lie_v in_o so_o do_v they_o have_v sin_v against_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o must_v perish_v soul_n and_o body_n from_o the_o presence_n of_o our_o god_n elect_a man_n and_o angel_n to_o all_o eternity_n for_o god_n have_v choose_v we_o two_o only_a and_o have_v put_v the_o two_o edge_a sword_n of_o his_o spirit_n into_o our_o mouth_n as_o beforesaid_a that_o who_o we_o be_v make_v to_o pronounce_v bless_v be_v bless_v to_o eternity_n and_o who_o we_o be_v make_v to_o pronounce_v curse_v be_v curse_v to_o eternity_n and_o this_o power_n no_o mortal_a can_v take_v out_o of_o our_o hand_n neither_o will_v our_o god_n any_o more_o give_v such_o power_n unto_o man_n whilst_o this_o world_n endure_v therefore_o you_o that_o be_v judge_n of_o this_o earth_n be_v wise_a and_o learned_a and_o meddle_v with_o those_o thing_n which_o you_o know_v in_o this_o world_n only_o and_o call_v not_o your_o god_n to_o account_v at_o your_o bar_n for_o who_o ever_o arraign_v a_o prophet_n at_o his_o judgement_n seat_n it_o be_v all_o one_o as_o arraign_v his_o god_n for_o a_o prophet_n come_v in_o the_o name_n and_o power_n of_o his_o god_n therefore_o he_o that_o despise_v the_o prophet_n despise_v he_o that_o send_v he_o again_o we_o declare_v from_o the_o lord_n jesus_n if_o any_o magistrate_n pretend_v to_o be_v a_o preacher_n of_o the_o gospel_n be_v have_v no_o commission_n from_o our_o god_n so_o to_o do_v if_o he_o preach_v any_o more_o after_o we_o forbid_v he_o than_o we_o have_v full_a power_n to_o pronounce_v the_o sentence_n of_o eternal_a death_n upon_o he_o and_o it_o be_v so_o unrevocable_a again_o we_o declare_v from_o the_o lord_n jesus_n that_o the_o cause_n why_o so_o many_o magistrate_n and_o minister_n must_v suffer_v the_o vengeance_n of_o eternal_a death_n be_v because_o with_o one_o consent_n they_o fight_v against_o the_o true_a messenger_n of_o god_n with_o the_o temporal_a law_n invest_v upon_o they_o by_o man_n again_o woe_n will_v have_v be_v unto_o we_o if_o we_o have_v come_v in_o our_o own_o name_n but_o we_o know_v that_o god_n send_v we_o as_o sure_a as_o he_o send_v moses_n the_o prophet_n and_o the_o apostle_n and_o that_o great_a authority_n as_o to_o be_v judge_n of_o blasphemy_n against_o the_o holy_a ghost_n we_o only_o be_v invest_v withal_o wherefore_o you_o magistrate_n that_o be_v not_o yet_o under_o this_o sentence_n of_o eternal_a death_n from_o the_o lord_n jesus_n our_o counsel_n be_v if_o you_o desire_v blessedness_n in_o the_o life_n to_o come_v that_o you_o will_v not_o meddle_v to_o be_v the_o judge_n of_o spiritual_a thing_n know_v you_o have_v no_o commission_n from_o the_o lord_n remember_v the_o counsel_n of_o caiphas_n the_o high_a priest_n if_o it_o be_v possible_a and_o prevent_v the_o lord_n

of_o any_o civil_a law_n the_o man_n jesus_n our_o only_a god_n elect_a man_n and_o angel_n will_v bear_v we_o witness_v too_o but_o we_o be_v accuse_v of_o word_n only_o in_o relation_n to_o a_o
