I accounted gain was loss unto me for the excellent knowledge in Christ Jesus our Lord. Beloved brethren I come not in the eloquentness of mans even weaved connexions that is with mans curious composers for the Apostles and Prophets they took not a verse to study a Sermon but wrote the Texts that you study from Now what they wrote was true what you study is a ly the smooth composure in their writing is not found a composure composed as yours is theirs was life to them yours being studied is death to you for know it is but name and not the substance thing which is Christ the Lord. Now beloved I come to the main Doctrine of all that is in the new Testament that is Ackki Cristus in sabat re el vau salvat ori in se The English is this Christ is the strong Saviour to the trusting soul in knowledge for without knowledge Christ no Saviour and that knowledge must be Christ in the soul it is his own teaching that brings us to life in himself But now I come to shew you Christ the Saviour whom multitudes of knowing people as they think they know him not Id est non corpus sed alvah a Deo in spiritus It is not the body that is Christ but 't is the high spirit in the body now the mystery doth begin I intreat you mind for I must treat Allegorically as well as litterally Non sanguise selma a maxi pele ethrati sele meos in saba almat rogel perene aks elle nene sabat not the composure of the Elements is the body of Christ but mind the word spirit that commandeth them abstracted elements into a composure O beloved I could wish that I had the highest learned men in the world to speak to for you cannot fathome my reach though litteral I beseech you mind me exactly and distinctly that you asperse not me neither wrong the Scripture nor your selves the point is this First I demand do you believe that that body of Jesus that died at Jerusalem was our Saviour for the Scripture saith that he offered up willingly an acceptable sacrifice unto God for us This is a true Scripture for it is God himself he is our alone free Saviour Now beloved this Scripture is and hath been owned many hundred years together but if it hath been viewed with vailed eyes the truth cannot be reached for you know that the Scripture speaks of Christs second comming which is the Sun in light to unvail all the mystery both in the Law and the Gospel which is his preaching within our souls teaching us the Evangelical truths that is a true sight in all things both Allegorically Mysteriously and Litterally Now I come to the called Scriptures that are litterally expressed they are Christs body shadowie pointing us unto a higher resurrection as Paul saith Let us go on to a further height not laying again the beggerly rudiments of the first principles Now Brethren for Christs body that suffered that is not your Saviour nor Christs body mind me for Christs body is obedience in the whole new man for what Christ did he did it figuratively and yet true Christ is your true Saviour now that must be sought Christ saith I will destroy this Temple in three dayes The Words that I speak is spirit and life All these are mystery let me tell you that there is not one word that came from Christ and his Apostles but were all mystery if the insert had been truly translated whereof to make up the Romish Church a body they have bodyed Christ in a body that the Spirit never intended In alagma senaim maxsi sadaos in re perflex sele nos oramus sabat al. The English is this The Church of Rome hath built their Church upon that body which is not Christs body but upon mans dung and not Christs for true Christ hath not nor cannot have any true corporal body for he is a spirit and a spirit is free from flesh and imbodies himself where he pleases but it is in the soul that is not of the body but is the Divine riches of Christ and Christs riches are spiritual in the souls of men there is one glimpse of Christs body Now know that that body of flesh that suffered at Jerusalem was not Christs body but in that body was spiritual obedience that was the Son of God and that Son in the obedient spirit in that body that was Christ your Saviour which Saviour is in you offering up you unto God which is but thus much obedience in love unto God for do you know and all people that God doth give into the soul light that light is Christ which in the soul is obedience so that God is God in regencie Christ in the soul in every man that is in light that light is obedience hereby man is made obedient and so one with the Father through the Spirit and that light in the soul is perfect Christ Now as ever the light in the soul is Christ in flesh God in spirit do not mistake me for God is the Creator Christ is the strength of God the holy Ghost and Christ are both one in the earthly creation for God is the Creator Christ is the strength of that created the holy Ghost is the valley in which the two Persons as you say act but I say one union in all that hath been spoken and no Persons for know that a spiritual essence cannot be person in true truth but if you say Persons and I say God here is no difference between us for say you what you can say I know beyond what you and the creation can say for mind saying is nothing and knowledge is all things Wrote by me Theauraujohn Taniour Allah High Priest allah all Epistle 18. Wrote at Eltham June 28. 1651. O Beloved God is love O beloved so great is my desire that love should be engrafted in every one of you that my soul painteth after my God for you even that he would fill your souls with love which love in truth is God himself planted in you Brethren let me tell you that then Christ raigns in his kingdome that is in your spirits ye being in love for know that Christ hath an earthly Kingdome but the Spirit in that earthly Kingdome that is his Throne I will come and dwell within the humble and meek spirit saith the Lord. Alvah havilah el asui arab salu in rem madad ai in sele mem The English O the height of Christs Throne is situate in the low spirits of humble men in the earthly form that is the English of that Hebrew state brethren I am comming down to the Hebrew that is now used which is the tenth derivasi of and from the first Hebrew that was wrote Hieroglyphically Moses wrote it Radically that was in Roots for know that in the Hebrew three Radiaces or letters as you count will denote any word in the creation without any more adjuncts Now beloved
Wisdome to the wise and Councel to the foolish ones The simple he will teach in his way and the arogancy of the proud he will contemn Now brethren I would not have you ignorant of what was the glory of the Gospel in the truth of it I tell you that the true Gospel is not onely talkative as mans creation doth give it a being but the true Gospel is active in goodness now this acting goodness must be inquired into and found out what it is and every one be an example unto others acting therein Brethren it is round the definition is strange truly my brethren I say as Peter and Iohn said going into the Temple Such as I have I give unâ—o you But I shall open unto you as the unfoldings are opened unto me the Gospel of Christ is round the acting goodness is and must be round now I shall draw the embleme The world is round the Gospel is round the soul of man is round now all these are in every man and woman under heaven the soul Gospel and the world But the true meaning must be understood First the soul is round else the world and its creation could not hold its figure in competency with it in its adherency The Gospel is round and that holds in competency with the soul but it being last takes the first state and subdues all for minde first a world then man then the Gospel and then comes goodness righteousness from what from neither world nor man but from the Gospel now my brethren this is a strange metaphorical expression but t is a true assertion Now here comes the true decipheration and from this decipheration comes the clear definition Now comes the clear view that brethren you may apprehend every one of your standings whether you are upon the Gospel built or upon mans foundation that is mans defending his actions by the name Gospel and speaking of the spiritual intentions of the Gospel Now mind before the Gospel comes to any know that there is a world and man in this world acting a oneness or an agreeableness in one thus man sees something in the world that hath a seeming beauty unto which his understanding is subdued upon this subdument there is an oneness in love betwixt the worldly things and man the world loves her own that is Christs words Now upon these two yet one comes the Gospel and that doth illustrate into the soul a far greater beauty of loveliness Now here begins mans trouble being wedded to the worldly appearances the present enjoyment holds fast the beams of the Gospel begin to heat both these as man and the world now the Gospel being Gods strength never loses its end My word shall effect the end whereunto it is sent saith the Lord. Now beloved here is the contest begun betwixt the world-man and man-world both being one by reason that the world hath eonquered the understanding of man and so man hath yeelded up his all unto the world for know the world cannot yeeld up unto man because of its majority but man yeelds himself to the world by reason of his minority and smallness of competencie comparatively now upon these two yet one and again two and yet again all made one by the Gospel so then the trine is erected in terra in earth when the Gospel is planted then comes this Motto in truth Thy will be done in earth as it is heaven nay then the will of God is done in earth as it is in heaven which is world-man man-world made obedient to the Gospel But to open their circumferences t is thus The world round the soul of man round the Gospel round thus I prove man word and world all round and all in Trines the greatest mystery that ever was wrote therefore mind First know that God created the round world whose consistance is of earth the influentives of the celestial bodies and the life operation in the sun subâ— Deus under God this is the first trine or the Basis for man now man in his Trine is this soul spirit and body Now I come to show how these Trines in their tinctures hold together First the earth that is Masor orbis the great world now God said as the Text is rendred God made man of the dust of the earth so there is a oneness in the earth and in the body of man now here comes the deceit Every thing loves his own so man must by that rule love the earth he was made on for in every oneness is an entireness loving it self for man and woman being in truth so love one another by reason of the true oneness in them if they be truly one which in truth of description ought to be so much for the body of man and the pondrous or massie body of the earth Now I come to the influences of the celestial bodies and know that they are placed in mans connexions which is millions as in the earth for these celestial bodies hold more the truth of figure then the earthly bodyes can for know the more nearer the spheres you come the more spiritual you must be for let me tell you the descent from them spiritual bodies are the livening living in this gross terrestials so know there is a perfect oneness in the celestial influences thus the influences causes all products in earthly appearances as the spirit of man Now mind I state the soul the first in man the last in God proved thus God made man and breathed in him the breath of life and he became a living soul I beseech you mind Man dies and the spirit or soul returns to God that gave it I pray you mind first man was made and then life was breathed which life was the whole all that erected the fabrick of man the fall of this sabrick or man dying the spirit returns to God that gave it Now mind here is the error know God withdrawing is mans disceasing for mind the Text runs as though man did die and then God did receive that Text gives glory to man and lessens the glory and strength of God for Gods withdrawing in that appearance is the cause of deceasing so let God have his preheminence as Paul saith Let God be true and every man a liar so brethren the truth lies not in names but in things not as they are said to be and reported to be but as they are in the substance and substance hath its center Now brethren the soul is one with the Gospel nay if you can say properly a true soul I will swear that is true word and Gospel for 't is the living life of God in you bringing your natural man to act in obedience into spiritual righteousness declared in life and conversation by distributing acts of mercy and relief to thy own Members that is of Christs body Now what is Christs body temporal I affirm it is the whole creation and in that all men and women Christ saith Love thine enemie love him
wrote by Matthew Mark Luke and Iohn but what we have inserted is neither Matthews nor none of the rests you have not the name of many of their words and then the knowledge in the Spirit that was their light you are very far from no nearer then light to darkness the name to the thing is darkness to light Now before I begin I desire you desire of God that a clear manifest discovery may be made known unto you as the truth is in Jesus who is the light and life of the Father the buty of excelency Now know I come not to asperse the true Scripture but to take of mans invention that is inserted for the true Scripture for all is not Scripture that is written in the Bible and the new Testament for the truth in them both is but one truth and one intire Scripture now it is said that Christ his second comming is to Illusterate to the view the cleare discovery of the wisdome of God and reconcile the differences betwixt the Jews and the Gentiles which lies in the abstract of the Old and New Testament But the vail is upon both Jews and Gentiles concerning the main reconcilement of both in this main maxim that is Massah El Jah or Jehovah but to come to the beginning that is the Incarnation of Emanuel or Jesus or Christ First he was very God equal with the Father what was equal with the Father but himself for he is was and shall be one entire essence in him self before all and in product from him all came even this Son which is the true Image of the Father Now I beseech you mind the world was Christ I am the life of the world these are his words essentially for he was the maker of it and all things and let all people and Nations know that the maker of all things could not die for with him must die all the things made in heaven and earth But to begin Thus God sent forth his Son made of a woman What was that That woman was no less then the life created of himself that is to say his whole creation and he is the light of the whole creation But to come to state one entire State saith one text a woman shall compas a man now the truth in that text is this hevah alsiel agroanei selma that is thus much the strength of God taketh weakness into it this is the meaning of the Spirit in that text Another text translated is in Isaiah a Virgin shall conceive and bring forth her first born and they shall call his name Emanuel that is God with us this text I deny in the coherents additicinal thus is the words in the truth of words alsiel reme a sadi el dolorum in re fasisti nobat al dele a saous in re a pher sele Emanuel the English of the true text and the Spirits meaning is this A Virgin pure doth bring forth unto God that living life Emanuel now how can you confine these words that are a living life operating through the whole Creation in every figure now how comes this Emanuel to be inclosed or the included in the alone womb of one entire Virgin when Emanuel is the Virgin Spirit that is the life of God living in man by operation Now you add to that state to bring in your fleshly humanity Thus much a Virgin shall conceive and so bring it to the relation of our capacity that a Virgin brought forth Jesus the same say I but the manner and meaning must be truly understood Thus I say them words have a Spiritual interpretation as well as an outward signification Now mind Mary that word is perfection Emanuel is perfection also So they be two names but the whole Creation that knoweth knoweth that there is but one perfection Now I say that Mary the Virgin brought forth Jesus and I say and you in truth cannot deny but that Jesus brought forth Mary for without Christ made the Father nothing that was made Now minde this state Mary brought forth Christ Thus Mary is Christ and Christ is Mary for both Mary and Christ they be perfect names of one entire and alone thing the Caldean Tongue is thus read Ofagodo dolma maret eltah assi salos sabdi the English is Jesus the Saviour is that pure alone thing that cannot conjoyn into any one thing for he is the life of the whole O beloved of God my soul pants after you that you might be inlightned by the Spirit of truth but beloved you are so married to the dead letter of whose Translations you know not neither what Bait is laid in the mystery you know its Originality was not wrote in English and let me tell you that without the truth in that Spirit to the wisest man living the record in Scripture is but a dark riddle Was not the Iewish Rabbies as deep learned in the Scriptures in their litteral Expressions as you great learned ones are in these blind times though we may think a great light is in us when indeed it is onely a learned notional lye for all learning is the lye and it is the Whore that Iohn saw rise out of the bottomless pit for know what man can learn in the divine thing it is but to speak a curious name of he knows not what for the Spirits teaching is a turning and a converting teaching which mans words is but the dead name of that living life acting in power to the overturning all oppositions This is the Gospel that is a powerfull Substance compelling obedience unto it self Now beloved I come to let down the State to your capacity and let no man asperse my words But let them take a coppy from what is inserted that freedome I allow to all men for my inserted shall not be barred from any man and to what I have wrote I shall be willing to render an account to any How have I all along desired the Priests my Brethren to a fair despute in giving the state or taking the state from them to answer to them yet never could obtaine it which doth declare that they are in darkness and dare not come to the light for light is not ashamed but darkness and a lye seeketh shelter Now minde I beseech you my brethren for I shall put in the leaveâ— that raises the whole foundation I beseech you minde Christ as he is stated in your Testament could not be born I say it is Blasphemy to hold it forth according to the written inserted I intreat your attentions and be ye like the noble Bereans that searched whether the things were so or no that were declared Now mind what do I seek for at any mans hands or any thing that any one of you have but blessed be the Lord that hath spared me a little of that abundance that he had committed to my trust for in my washing is my refinement Now know Christ could not be properly said to be born that was the
birth and glorious creator of all Secondly He could not be born in one that was the life and strength of all Thirdly He could not be begotten that out of him all things was produced Fourthly He could not be flesh properly for God is the Spirit of life in the whole Creation Fifthly He could not descend in flesh as we account but he is a Spirit and his decent is spiritual into our Spirits whereby he raises a Resurrection unto himself and by degrees our natural man is subjected to the Spiritual man which is Christ the Lord the life and glory of excellency in that word Ci. is implyed union Sixthly He out of whose product all was is and to come could not was not nor cannot be inclossed or included for know a living life in all things cannot be properly said to be only in one thing or womb of a woman If so then where is the life of all the rest that are and cannot be no where consistant but in Jesus their Saviour I beseech you minde I will give you your own words thus say you the same say I Jesus Christ was brought forth of the Virgin Mary and lived on earth as man doth till the appointed time of the Father then the Spirit did descend that Spirit is Jesus even that is the holy anointing above his fellowes But we have brought the humanity to be very God in the earthly form which is absolute Blasphemy For thus man to confine his maker into his owne thing made is to undeifie God and deifie himself this is Antichrist in the highest degree as to ungod God and make man God So life in this sence made death and death is made life For Ephuscos in Re ar alli-aam in re fasisty nebat agoas am sele mem derala al.

The English The high sound from truth it self is but a lye for it is sound or name of the thing and not the true thing the sound of a lye is nothing in the senter neither any thing in the product but confution to unstable Soules Now ye Priests my brethren by creation but I desent from you in declaration and turn you to your owne weaved invention which is your Trade of Lyes in these Nations these Nations is a word proper for the Lye is but one in all Nations the word is proper in his restriction for it confines all under and into one head or Redi O how have you lift up your lying trumpers for the effecting your owne self ends O who would not fight for the Gospel and murder his brethren he could not be of God When the true Gospel you knew not but sounded out your owne lying hearts covered with that glorious name Gospel Now you have misserably ruined the Nation and is it not just you who should have been lights in goodness should be partakers in the work you have wrought Now you have declared your selves for by outward acts are the true declarations what is done in men and acted by men for as the heart is so are the declarations I speak your owne words because ye should understand me Now I shall shew you what the Gospel is and I shall leave the desidement betwixt you and me to be desided by all people First I say That the Gospel cannot be preached by another but by it self it is the declarer and declared it is the truth in the root or foundation from that rought or foundation flows forth the outward sound from the inward significant Now the truth within is the roâ—ght of God but the sound outwardly is

of Christ that word Of will sute the most of you for ye are Of and not in Christ Now I come to lay down the first ground that is this When God gives a name he gives something with that name it is not as we give our Children names but God doth give a substance for he is the substance and where he gives a Name he gives something else that is himself In his Son Brehren Time will manifest it to you all what Theaurau John is but to come to you Priests my Brethren that say you are called and sent and say you are Embassidours of Christ Now I deny you to be called or sent neither are you Christs Embassidours but thus your call is a lye For t is learning and learning is that Whore that hath deceived the Nations for it hath compleated the work of Antichrist for who is an Antichrist but he that denyeth the Father and the Son that is thus much the Father is God and the Son is God and cannot be-learned Now you by you learning You have as it were made Staires to pass up to heaven or to go to God when God is a Spirit infusing himself into the simple to make them wise By this Cheat you have deceaved the Nations O how you have tortured and tormented the poor members of Christ that would not alow your wills and fancies If not say amen to what you said then presently they were Hereticks and Blasphemers when indeed your selves were the men O then you would cause the Caterpillars to fly from your named Spiritual corts to smite the poor upright simple Innosent and harmless men then you would tos a man upon the horns of your Altar while he was forced to seek Bread Nay further The stricktest of your trade was put them to death that opposed you or would not be conformable to your Gospel will or will Gospel that was and is your holy calling or your calld Jure Divine Brethren is not this true that you have acted this openly preached it openly may you not be ashamed of what you have done but to colour all this is your shrine you say that the Priests lips preserveth knowledge I say that text is false translated and them words thrust in to then in your trade of lies Thus I prove the Priest that is the true Priest is knowledge and he hath no lips nor body for it is the Spirit of God dwelling in man that is Gods Image in the earthly form or body of man That that preserveth knowledge giveth knowledge Judge ye all people If the Priest can give or preserve knowledge But one more to open clear that that is knowledge is a substance and a substance is not a sound and that is all the Priests are for they are but a sound and no more and that that is stated in that text is onely of a thing and not 〈◊〉 the thing Indeed the Priests are quicker at their learned names then other men are because it is their trade for he is not fit to make a Priest on as we make Priests among us men except he be quick nimble and acute and a good Scholler Look into this indowments ye Priests which is your fabrick you build from Now thus qualified then to the University and there you are installed a Priest then you are sent to preach the Gospel as you call it But a Lye you have learned a Lye you have conceived and a Lye you have declared the root a Lye and the branchings forth they are the same I affirm this against all the learned Priests in the world I am a Priest unlearned yet knowledged I have no learned tongues yet in any state coherent to the intendant I know all Tongues and will with the deepest you can pick out amongst all your flock of Priests I will engage in any material matter or Divine and Spiritual Intendant and what I had I received in seven daies × but not at your Vniversities Now Priests if ye were not so mightily wrapped in partiality to your selves I would shew you that miracle that you have no minde to see It is a poor weak Miccannich I please you in that word but to see him preach that you like not though he holdeth forth to the clear view of the enlightned the Divine and sacred expressions is not this a miracle I say it is I prove it so to be and a greater then if the Spirit of God should take one of you from your trade of lies and plant himself in you who is truth I tell you that the desernative were hard to be discovered by reason of the Lye you were grammered in before for where the Person is weakest and unfittest there is the power of miracle most illustrated but this you like not because it spoiles your ingrosed trade of lies Let me but come to you and hear your Sermon I will shew them how you oft say and unsay again is not this lying I leave to the people to judge of who are judicious I will state one thing that hath a great light and influence upon the peoples persons and purses at this day it is not taken off yet that is this great trouble in which the Nation lies involved Have not you Priests piped and the people have danced that dance to their owne ruine and misery do you not unpipe that piped dance but the act is too ponderous to be reduced For the first-piping hath killed and slain the people and the second piping cannot revive again the slain Look in all Lands if that Babylonish whore hath not bewitched the people to murder one anothhr for the Clergies owne ends which is but to deceive the people more for their owne rise by their rule murder all till their wills is gotten into regency this is the Clargies work the lying Clargy the lying Priests Behold I see a day coming that these Priests locust or

know from this very day the sharpe contest doth begin and the fire shall never be quenched till it hath consumed the whole Clargy in England O that that generous Nobillity were but planted in our State in England that they would but search the root from whence all our misery flowes for know there can be no safe settlement unless it be upon a sure foundation and there is no sure foundation but truth it self Now though men cannot settle truth nor set in truth yet thus much may be done The Palpable Lye may be secluded from place of regency which is the Clergy in England and I will prove them Lyers Cheaters Deceivers Robbers Murderers Oppressours Blasphemers Covetous And are these men fit men for Gospel Ministers let them that are thus proved be put downe and their lying silenced and if I prove not the insert that is here written I will dye the death willingly for I am a young Eliah amongst Baals lying Priests as will shortly appear Brethren would you have me to speak the truth as it is the truth in Jesus it is even thus Gods power is even at the very door to overcome and over-turne Lying Learning For I beseech you mind truth by man cannot not be learned he may by learning get the Name or Eloquent expression of the thing by learning but he is the farder off from the truth by that he hath learned for truth is gotten neither by hearing nor learning for it is the desent from God into our Spirits that raises the surrection of our Spirits into Life which is his truth and from that root of truth within our Spirits being wattered with the influences of his fulness we that are Babes grow in and by his strength till we be taken into himself his takings are them of his owne teaching Now beloved I beseech you minde and I will lay downe the perfect Moddel of every one of you that is what man is and how composed and how acktuated and how and from what opperating Now I beseech you minde attentively for it is the greatest mystery that never yet was wrote to the full as I shall leave to be viewed of all Authors or Historiographers who have seen the opinion of many learned men Now I Theauraujohn am unlearned and unread in any Microkosme or definative adjuncts thereunto belonging but to speak to all capacities the word is this the discription of the little world in man or Sebastanaies that is the same in this Tongue Now I begin Oli sede el. The English is this The light of God set in man that is the first state Sede oli el Vau. The English The light of man is set in God onely There is the two states laid down I beseech you mind for we have had great disputes about this little world Man or Sabastanaies in his first principle But now God hath been pleased to let down the state more fuller and plainer Now mind First God is the Raigning Essence or Regency Essence in himself alone Secondly Man is a Derivative Essensied in that raigning Essence for in him we live move and have our being then know that that is and doth wholly depend upon another is Essensied in that he doth depend upon Now know you cannot give any thing to hold semblance with the Essence of God and the living life of man that is in the true propriety of speech the Essence of God in man Brethren many of you cannot bear that word but thus the Soul of man which is the very same in its originallity Now we will look into this desent from God to make man thus the Soul in man is the angel of God That is the pure divine Evangelicalquintessence which is the same in the forecited state Now the raigning Essence or God doth cause out of himself a Voice Life That abstracted out of the four Elements a composure of appearances of all things as well as the material or Beastial body of man Now there is a Body there is an Essence from whom this living life or Soul came to be placed in the abstracted four elements in a visible Corporal body now there is set downe the Case the Derivative cased the abstract of the the beastial body corporal Yet here wants the Spirit of man that the whole world cannot tell what it is where it shall cease whether in Heaven or Hell now this Spirit of man is to be fetched forth for it is the All that is either in bondage or in freedom Now Priests where will your learning fetch this Spirit that is the trouble of all nay the trouble of it self Now minde This Spirit of man is the quintessence of the four Elements motional and is alwaies operating in the body as the Coherents it was abstracted from and is continually motional Now know that that giveth more motion to this quintessence of abstract Elementary it is the conjunction of and with the Selestial bodies for their Ingreediences doth cooperate in the abstract and composed actuated and operated though he thinkes that himself is the cause of acting so it is but subordinate to the operating of the Selestial bodies predominacy for in truth that that doth act and the cause or motion be in another the other may be properly be said to act not that that doth appear in the thing Now let me tell you that this poor innocent beast or body of Clay doth nothing but the Spirit of God and of man them two do operate every man under heaven Thus I open that I have abstracted in three though I know them all three to be trines that is nine but in three I lay the state down because al may understand Thus the Soul the Spirit and the Body Now as in Gods regency Essence their Spirit is proper but in his derivative Essence Soul is the proper word and holds thus much Oli el the light of God in man not of man Now the Spirit of man is proper thus because t is the quintessence abstracted out of the Elementary motions with its recedings from the selestial influenses and thus is mans composure But now comes the main matter I say that the living life which is the Soul of man returnes to God and cannot detract his Ti or Essence and with obeying the inward dictatings of that living Life The Spirit of man is taken into the called Paradise or Heaven or Evangelical living and for not obeying the inward dictatings of that living Life within the Spirit of man is cast forth unto utter darkness which is counted Hell Now what is this Hell or darkness T is a Separation from an injoyment that it was capable of that is Hell and Devil and Lyâ—r and false Prophet they shall not come forth till they have paid the uttermost farthing then shall they receive mercy for know that God is Good and Just and mercifull and he will not punish a Finite thing Infinitely Now there is more in that Popish Tenent then the Papish know of
it of these Elementary Heavens that Paul spake of the third Heaven Or what was his meaning for the word is Translated into the singular number that is to say one heaven and one earth Now to know his and the Spirits meaning in them words I affirm he wrote that he did not understand in many places for thus it is many times the mystery is a sealed Book to the Pen-man of it The meaning of his insert was not as it is Translated for the word Sabas is read Saba and is derived from ש Shin which imports weakness Now the true meaning was and is that the first Heavens was passed away and the Earth also which is thus much if truely viewed in that alone light it was wrote It was the Jewes ceremonies Typifying the height of the Transcendent pattern celestial their Abrogating and non Residence amongst men on Earth And the Earth was that beauty and delight that man had in these Earthly celebrations of joy and rejoycing Now I state the last first and the first last Now the new heaven and the new earth was the Gospel of Jesus in power turning all things into it self that was the power that John saw should accompany the declared Truth But it is not yet made good neither could it be until time time time and an half time which is Christ his second comming to reduce both Jewes and Gentiles and their two dispensations into one radical root which is unto the Jewes Hassa Massah I leave the knowledge locked in them two words hid both from the Jewes and Gentiles till time can bear it on both sides into one radical root or Church of the first born Now for the word Sea signifies a severation or partition from one another or in some places the word Sea it is understood properly of People Now if the People be all reduced into one fold then there is no more Sea that is difference or severation this is the Spirits meaning of the new Heaven and the new Earth wherein shall dwell righteousness for they shall be reduced into one root and they shall all be taught of God that is love and they taught of God shall act in love for ever And I saw the holy City new Jerusalem come down from God out of heaven prepared as a Bride trimmed for her husband what was the meaning of this expression it was the beauty of excellency that the Spirit was beautified withall that was so beautious that it did attract to its loveliness all the beholders for the Spirit operative is let down from God to man and returnes from man to God with its effects or message and marriage taking man into union with God this is that new Jerusalem that is ever and alwaies the same in operation For God is Is is always no less nor greater but the same holy for ever O beloved were we but capable of the great change at hand O how ought we to walk in love one to another not in envy and deceit Now one word to you Churches Congregated so called do not you speak evil of the things you understand not for know the word doth hold forth the second appearing of Christ in a more visible glory then ever yet was revealed which is the bringing in the Jewes and the preaching the everlasting Gospel which must raise out of the Grave of oblivion the buried truth and abstract that and the letting downe of the Spirit these two yet one in the senter must be inserted together that all Nations may flow to the City Jerusalem for they shall say of a surety God is with his people we will go up to worship in Jerusalem the Mount of God even in Hereb O avallo hesseon andi dele selose in re averietar sebat The English O the rich mercy of God shall be letten down for the restoring of his ancient people the Jewes to cause their return to their owne land Selah selalah Selah that is Englished Praise praise praise yee the Lord these words do bear other imports as well as praise the Lord.

made in the perfection that is to say thus much God doth cause obedience in the creature and that obedience is acknowledgement of digression and that acknowledgement wrought from that root obedience which is truely Christ in the Soul for he causes an acknowledgement God is satisfied through him the Spirit of obedient man is taken into perfection or heaven Do not deceive your selves God is not like partial men for God is love mercy and compassion Now let me shew unto your view one place of Scripture so called that you and I my self in the daies when I knew not God was much troubled at that is a text translated corruptly from which place that place in the Romans doth hold coherent the text is this as you read it Jacob have I loved and Esau have I hated and this was before the Children were born now I plainly see the Sarbax or strength that that place in the Romans fetches that is implied thus much that it might stand with Gods decree according to Gods election as I have declared them words were none of Pauls But now brethren I beseech you by the mercy you have received lay by all prejudice opinions and minde exactly and directly for it is the maine asperse that lies upon the holy and just and glorious God it is laid upon him by the invention of man first I will read the true text in the truth of words to express the intire union significant which is this Eval-silo-reme-am sardet a salu oâ—oniel In that word odoniel is the main mistake for it is rendered addoniel the English of odoniel is the all-saving mercy of God and addoniel is God in his declarative of Justice Now I read the whole text coherent in the intendant which is this Jacob I love Esau I hate Now let me tell you that these two are in every man and woman under heaven For Jacob is Gods delight that was as much in that day or time as Christ with us for the maxims full drawn is both one for it is in truth no less then the Spirit of God in man or Christ in flesh Now Esau is the Spirit of man that was denoted in this word Esau which word in the original signifies a searcher or pryer or deceit or weakness which is indeed that Spirit that Paul saith is enmity against God or higher it is one with the Devil I prove it thus Esau was and is that searching Spirit that would pry into the secret of God which was a Spirit of disobedience that was and is to be cast forth Now Jacob is an hebrew word Scholars it is wrote with three radiaces in × Sambah or Sameck that is the name which is denominated in the highest strength in pronounciation that is the meaning when I say such a thing is wrote in Sambah × now the characters decyphering out this state are ר ×› ×™ Rosh Caph and Jod Now Scholars you quarrel with me because the radiaces do not give the true tone or sound let me demonstrate unto you that are the highest learned in the world in the state or sitation take notice and do you know that in the Caballesterial insertion the true knowledge in that mistery lies in the very averets or Frame in the rough materials that is knowing them in their true desendant â—â—ttere thus much to know every radiace in his proper weight in his senter Original and to know him in his true original senter that is both negatively and affirmatively and then to know the true state of all his combinements in himself and with all others in their various and dubious imports and compounds this is one hint of Theauraujohn unto you learned ones though I my self am unlearned Now to show you ר ×› ×™ Resh Caph and Jod denotes Jacob it is thus much ר Resh is wisdome ×› Caph doth impede that wisdome ×™ Jod doth illustrate through ×› Caph and ר Resh so to draw the consort into one entire insert it is thus much Gods loveliness in man or the Image of God in man this is Jacob for he saith the inserted he Scripture was the figure of Christ Now I have shown you Jacob Now I come to show you rough Esau he is wrote with three radiaces that are these ש ×– ×” Sin Zain and Hea. Now people I intreat your patience while I do define this state to our great learned ones Now you great learned Rabbies If I according to your learning had but stated × Sambah in ש Shins stead then there had been some sound in the pronounciation and do but read the state contrary then you might have made the stated state sounded Heza and now it sounds Hezin Now I will show you the Original of them three radiaces I hold in the Hebrew term or else radax in English is the proper word Now ×” Hea is weakness ×— Heth is her essence ×– Zaine is a figitive compound in any state according to the truth in the methodical method ש is weakness her essence lies in × Samah or Sameck now shut these together then it is the figitive Spirit in weaknesses that is the rebellious Spirit in man which indeed is the Devil in man unto which Spirit Christ spake when he said they were of their Father the Devil whose works they would do because they were guided by that figitive Spirit that deceiver that Antichrist which hath prevailed over all Nations and now raigns in England in his predominatest spheare yea and in the clothing of holiness or holy zeal and the obeyers of him are deceived and know not that the Lye is in their right hand and hath deceived them But now to come to clear the goodness of God from that charged partiality by mans false conception of his knowledge of him I intreat you minde First I say as I have declared God could not chuse when all was wrapped in the womb of union how could he chuse when nothing was produced but himself alone in his alone and entire Essence I beseech you minde for it will if duly considered take off a great deal of trouble out of both heads and hearts of many people who lye under eruel bondage of this corrupt and false conception that God had from Eternity ordained some unto salvation and some unto damnation which is absolute Blasphemy I prove it to be Blasphemy thus that that can or will be partial it is not God for God is just and just doth not nor cannot admit of partiality then let all the world know that God will not act that himself that he commands man being his representative to be warned of which is these words spoken by God to man that is this command do just without partiality Now you will say are we not as the Pots in the hand of the Potter and may not God do what he will who shall say why doest thou so to his Maker I pray you mind I intreat you I say no the comparison is weakness and it is false I prove it
thus First God is just and he cannot be otherwaies as for man he is corrupt and must be changed to be made like unto God in Gods righteousness Now do you and all the world know that God who I know is just and all people will say God is good and just and righteous then how can this God act partiality or weakness thus if God do condemn partiality in man and if it be as you say that God did ordaine some to Salvation and some unto Damnation Is not be partial I say he is if it be true that you affirm but I say it is a Lye and false that you affirm and Father it upon Paul and God is holy just and without partiality neither did he decree any to Damnation or Salvation as you say and affirm but that point I open not yet though I know that there is nothing that is wrote but shall be abstracted into truth in which Original it was first let down But you will say thus God made us and he may do with us what he pleases I answer no for he hath but one attribute in that matter and that is just mercy to save his thing created and no more I say that God had just mercy to create the creature and just mercy to save the creature being made and no more not a little Now you in your weakness will say that I limit God or confine the holy one I say no do you but truely understand what that word just is and I tell you it will keep you in your own bounds without censuring me or judging God for know just is perfection neither admitting nor degating that is to say neither more or less but it self that is in the word just Now I tell you Jacob was ever saved and ever loved I say Iesus ever saved ever a Saviour I say Abraham ever saved I say the Image of God in man the same ever saved by reason it is one entire with it self in a derivative and will be one in Essence at the unmoddelling of every figure For man dies and the Spirit returns unto God that gave it Now I prove of Esau there shall be saved that is of that wicked or evil Spirit that is Children of the Devil nay devilish children Hos si selat-ar-al The English is this The Spirit of darkness shall be made light and saved Non quantum sed magit sed maxci sele mem The English is this Not much nor little but the thing shall be taken into rest Now I beseech you minde what the Spirit saith in this citation not much nor little but the thing what is that thing and what is the much and little The much and little is nothing but the sound of the thing in appearances the thing that is the Spirit in that much and little made obedient it shall be taken into perfection or heaven so that the disobeying Devil shall be made obedient and thus indeed and in truth do not flatter your selves for every one of us present is in our weak dark and blind condition which is guided and ruled by the Devil for his servants you are to whom you give obedience and whom do we obey until light arises in us through the operation of his powerful resurrection in us Ola olla osonno romi deleous in sesabat al ogo olemus sebat arbatar allab ak obediah sab al oli mem The English derivacie is this the darkness is made light by obedience that will in obedience is Christ the interceder for the accounted elect but the proper word is chosen and obedience is the chocie-maker in the marriage and upon that knot lock or ty doth the whole centre stand Now beloved let me intreat you but to consider one Scripture as you call it it is thus much the Elect cannot be deceived Now what that is and where it doth centre I will show you it is in these two hebrew words Oli al that is the 〈…〉 ght of God in man that is the Image of God in man that cannot detract nor be deceived This point is held by many but the truth in the thing is not understood Now minde I beseech you was Christ sent to preach unto that that could not be deceived it was vaine folly so to think and the greatest weakness so to think but Christ came to cast forth the Devil and to convert him that was cast forth now how is this doctrine to be understood Selam arba a sadit al oli mem durata sebat al oli mene seam abstrakcit oli senebassai elma avadet selose in re semmam The derivacie in English is this The thing accounted Devil and darkness and perdition is the false conception in man of and in the true thing that is God who is both light and darkness neither light nor darkness but the conjunct of both them two named semblances that is to say light and darkness he doth bring both them into one original centre which is in God himself from whence they had their issuing forth Beloved it is not what we account and conceive in our weak apprehensions but God is and that is God acting in light and dark appearances though that be Devil and darkness and afflicted for sin yet let me tell you t is light to God for that that is to us a burden t is light from him to make us like himself enlightning our Devil or darkness which is one and the same in their accounted centre I beseech you let us plead together without prejudice opinion Now minde I say there is but two Spirits good and bad that I do but say for I know beyond what is said but it cannot be with convenience born nor delivered for it is a rending maxim but I say as you say there is but good and bad light and darkness heaven and hell is not this your owne method you cannot deny then I say Christ came not to call light or righteousness but Sinners Devils to repentance these are your owne words now as I said before to teach the Spirit that could not be deceived it was vain folly that he that was all wisdome would not do for the Spirit could not be deceived that is the living life of man operative But he came to preach to the disobedient Spirits in prison Now what are these this is the disobedient Spirit in man that is the Devil in man now at Christs own preaching this Devil is alwaies cast forth but not by mans naming Christs words or the name preaching For I tell you that ye are all even ye Priests as far from preaching as light is from darkness for ye name a shadow for a substance for if man could once preach he then is Christ then he casteth forth at his voice but it is a spiritual voice from the true centre Now it may be ye would know of me what I account Christ to be I answer that the Christ that I know he is one with the Father and his declaring himself

Wrote at Eltham O Beloved the beauty of Excellency is in God alone Esa 5.7 surely the Vineyard of the Lord of hosts is the house of Israel and the men of Judah are his pleasant plant but the Lord looked for judgement but behold oppression and he looked for righteousness but behold a mourning or crying Beloved it is 〈…〉 inquired into what the meaning is of my falling upon this text of Scripture which to me after I was guided unto put me to a stand or maze and what God will bring out of it at this very word I know not one tittle Beloved Gods Vineyard are ye men and women accounted by denotation in the written word and ye are so indeed and in truth ye are not so so ye are and ye are not that is so many as walk in obedience they are vine-branches and their root is Christ Jesus their Saviour risen in them by this owne strength and power by whose power they are made obedient unto himself by having their corruptions changed and cast forth and their whole all subdued by Christs raigning in them and ingrafting them into God the Father through the union of Spirit so there the beginning hath taken his end unto himself and then there is an oneness in intireness as at first for in Christ or Massah God let down the creation which Christ or Massah is the strength of God and in that strength that is Christ or Massah God restores the all of the creation unto himself again that word The All hath more in it then any or all you do understand in that state that it doth stand in Now under the name of this qualification you are Vine-branches indeed But now to show you in truth you are deceived and are not Vine-branches it is thus in truth you are uot if not in the truth you are that is to say truely if not in the root Christ ye are indeed and in truth no Vine-branches but ye are Bryers and Thornes and hinderers in appearances of the true Vine-branches thus are ye hindereres of the true Vine-branches and yet your hinderance of them is a furtherance unto them thus you are hinderances to them when you do not accept the truth declared by them and in them for know your owne neglect is their hinderance thus you hinder them in not being one with them for they that are not with us are against us but all this is short yet once more ye are hinderers of the true Vine-branches for in truth who hinders or opposes Christ but the Devil and that Devil are ye and the Vine-branches are we that are in Christ Deceive not your selves if ye are not of Christ then ye are of the Devil there is but two creations and yet but one creation and in that one all creations But to speak in term to your understanding there is but two that is to say God and the Devil but because you are pleaders for the Devil take him unto your selves in your owne term and in that you will understand him best to your owne capacity now let me tell you so long as you know a Devil you neither have capacity nor understanding though I
cannot rob you of your Devil yet let me tell you this if you understood or had true capacity in truth then there is no Devil but God who is the light showing thee his beauty and that is his glorious truth and in that truth there is no Devil and this is true understanding and capacity to know God to be thy God then this Devil hath been a furtherer for thy good Now minde how hath these Thornes and Bryers and Devil been good unto the Vine-branches thus the Thornes are the pricks from the Devill which doth procure our unrest till the Devil hath as I may say hunted us home to our God who is our safe centre in which this cheat and cheating Devil hath no centre I term it a cheat or deceit or deceiving O that God would be pleased to open your eye then you never see the Devil but you see alwaies a Devil while you have a double eye or two eyes but when you see with the single eye there is then no Devil to be seen with union his eye Brethren it is your being more then truely you are that makes you see a Devil for if you did but see your self to be your owne self then there is no Devil but God alone O I wish from my soul that you had but the true sight then there would not be this judging one another and censuring one the other but instead of this envy which is the Devil but you must have it in these words this envy is from the Devil But now I will show you how envy you and the Devil are all one and in one Trine which is the dark semblances figurative figure of Terra Evangelius in re that is to say the light Evangelical in the thing but to let it down from the state to your capacity it is this the Devil hath his trine in figure as Christ hath his figure in earthly appearances but in their absolute adverse contrarieties as for Christs figure that is declared already in this Epistle in the Vine and the Vine-brances as Christ being the Vines root and the branches naturally branching forth from that true root which in the Egyptick tongue the word that holds the method inclosed in its womb is Glavo in the true Hebrew in Primus Maxi the word is Okas now the Greek word is Theos the Latine word Deus there was in the Translation of this word in the New Testament from the Greek tongue the reason I know why the word Logas or Logos for the variety of Dipthongs which is the foundation of the Greek tongue their connexions being so knitted one in another in the pronounced sound that the true understanding in many words is perverted and the sence in its extent lies buried Now let me speak my man-sight and judgement this is my own yet there is somewhat more in it then my judgment is that whereas you read In the beginning was the word which is in the import Logosh but you say Logos Now I give you my reason why I sound H as Logosh it is because I dignifie him in the Hebraick ר Resh whose import in that compound word doth import or denote the binding strength or strength word for strong word will not hold but the word Koash is this the strong binding root that word Koash will bear the maxim in his full denotation Now I say if true read before the beginning the root was you say in the beginnsng the word was now know your maxim cannot bear it in the state of God for God was before appearances came forth by or in his word judge ye all of this whether that the root was before the world was made and before appearonces did appear root is the properest denotation Paul saith we are his off-spring that is we are branchings forth from that root that was before the beginning as your text is read which Translation is false in that state and though I am unlearned and unread in what I declare and none more ignorant that hath any learning let me owne my owne and that is this I am a lyer God is true though it be somewhat strange yet it is true Brethren it reaches every one of you I pray you take this to back my words withall Paul saith Let God be true and every man a lyer or all men are lyers And now I come to show you the Devil Envy and Man and that last word Lyers will hold all Thus man was the Image of God I beseech you minde In true propriety of speech God can have no Image thus I prove it The whole altogether cannot figure out the Image of God but thus they do denote unto us the wonderous greatness and power and sacred Majesty of God for know God is to be considered in the works of his royal creation and not in himself for God is incomprehensable I tell you it is as easy for a Gnat to swallow both the sea and the land as for man to comprehend what the eternal Majesty of God is But know I must state the word Image because that you may understand my term Thus God made man in own his Image or likeness this is in the high light in man that is the soul in man now the soul in man I say cannot detract its derivacy but the spirit of man is motional and hath no centre whereby the strength of its quick composure that it is composed of or from it is in coherency in operation with the abstract it was abstracted from for know the Spirit of man is the abstract out of the quintessence of the four Elements with its recedings from the celestial bodies in their influences now I would not have any of you to mistake my denotation or meaning Now I will state the state in Hebrew Greek and Latine and in English that if the query be queried it may be reduced for the reducement of the query queried the Hebrew denotation is in these words Oli-Al that is to say the light of God set in man that is the Spirit from God yet inclosed in flesh a derivative it doth take this descent in nomination that is mind Oli el vau ו that is the light in man is wholly set in God which is the soul in man yet Spirit from God but soul will hold both from Gods denotation as well as Spirit for the Spirit from God is the soul in man and the soul in man is set wholly in God for in him we live and move and have our being that is the union his tye unto himself Now in the Greek the true word in the Originalest denotation it is Oukessi Avalle that doth denote thus much the clearness in man is the Spirit The Latine denotation is Ego sâ—â— vita mentis that is I I am the life of the minde or the mindes life which is but thus much by denotation the soul is Primus Maxzi that is to say the first strength in man that is the soul now
upon the return to God Spirit doth if it can be defined doth in the proper place as it were take the Precedency in the return but minde I ever state the soul in man to be Primus maxzi that is the first strength in man the denotation lies very mysterious that is it that causes the exactness in my state laid down now the first in man is the soul that is the breath of God which is the being life in man that is the soul in man Now I come to the Spirit in man that is truely mans all now that is Secundus vita in homo that is the second life in man or the second living in man Now know I am coming to bring the Envy Devil and Man all to make one Trine in figure and thus I begin First The soul although it be in man and be id est primus Maxzi that is the first strength in man yet it is not of man neither hath man any benefit in that soul until that secundus vita till the second life be brought into obedience unto the Primus maxzi that is the first strength Oli el vau ו that is thus much the Spirit of man that is Secundus vita in orbis that is the second life in this little world be brought into obedience into Primus maxzi that is the first strength in this little world man Now this is wrought by the Spirit of God infusive into the Oli el vau ו that is God infusing his Spirit which is word which is Gospel which is Light which is Life into the soul in man by that light which is Gods grace in the soul the Beauty of that excellency in the soul it doth illustrate into the Secumdus vita in orbis that is the second life in man which is the Spirit in man and by that beauty the Spirit in man is made obedient which obedience is Christ in us so by this light or Spirit from God we are reconciled in our selves that is the Soul and Spirit and Body for the body is acted by the Spirit in man and not by the Soul in that body till the light in the soul hath overcome the darkness in the Spirit and a marriage be inde abetwixt the soul and the Spirit and the Body now then in this marriage with us with Christ with God we are one enlightned Trine in our selves one with Christ one with God and all but one then we see him as he is which sight makes us one with the Father though a derivative yet in Essencie and we shall be one in regency Brethren here I have showne you the beginning work the way work and the end work O oli el vau ו amor in re sabat al halilujah in mem The English of the Hebrew state is this O the light of love set in the soul in man by God the word Re doth import God in this state it doth cause the ejaculations of Angels to returne to God for his free gift of rest into the soul this is the light Trine figurative figuratively the semblance in sanktum sanktorum where there is onely union denoted unto us that is in truth Gods love or mecy praising himself thus God in mercy made a creation and God gave mercy to restore his creation this restored being restored doth sing Halilusah in viva vose in Evangelious in Re. The English is this The mercy or the saved do sing Halilujah in the living voice of Angels in the thing so you see God his mercy in creating his mercy in receiving his created that very mercy doth praise God so in short Gods mercy doth praise himself take one place of Scripture I do not bid you beleive me nor it but stand upon your owne centre the words are these Thy works praise thee O God and we will sing unto thy Majesty Now I did bid you not believe me nor it How because I would not deceive you nor have you deceived and John the Baptist my Brother spoke the same words in the import when he said I baptize you but with water but there is one that will baptise you with fire and the holy Ghost John knew he was but a sound or a voice and knew that a voice or sound hath no centre but is a composure abstracted of aire which is but a lye or nothing that is all that man can teach but the reason that I bid you not believe me nor the place cited it is because I would not deceive your manhood for the manhood will gather together a stock of names and words of queries and answers and notions which is all but a Lye till the Spirit of the Lord be come and cast forth that dark deceit and Christ erect his owne glorious light So I would intreat you becarefull that ye accept not a sound for the substance Now I know that Gods light shall unvail all these things unto you that the true truth in the thing may be illustrated for Christ coming is like Fullers-sope or the Refiners fire this I know and have selt and from the true knowledge in me I speak though it be in me and in you a truth in the heart or foul yet that you and I both and all people speak it is 〈◊〉 but Lye in the mouth for in the heart is wrote Digitus Dei that is the finger-writing by God himself you speak what is done and from that true root in the soul yet know your voice is but a sound from the thing and is not the thing and a sound is a Lye and not a substance for t is but a name of and from the thing and not the thing I instance thus a signe or picture of a man is not a man therefore in the true propriety of true speech it is no more nor no less then mans Lye Now to come to the Devil he hath a Trine figurative the celestial Trine temporal as thus the Devil envy and man make up one temporal Trine thus the Spirit in man nay mans spirit is a Devil and the strange birth that is brought forth of Devil-man or Man-devil it is Envy Now that word Orga it is a Caldee word but it is the properest word to hold in truth the coherency but thus this word Orga is envy and this evy is the Devil man in man from man and by man and against man and this is envy in man or the Devil envy man or man-devil Now to come to state the connexion that exhales and draws the conjunction together in this Trine it is thus I beseech you mind Non serte pele esse this is a Latin state though Pele be the ancient Orthodoxal word in the Greek tougue Now the English is thus much Not sure nor certaine being or thus no certaine being not sure this is a strange state but we must have stranger yet before we can find out this Apollyon that hath inbondaged us unto his strange being that is so strange that it hath no
centre and not to be found out Now let me speak if all Languages can finde him out or all Arrs or all Sciences or Earth Aire Fire or Water I shall reach him if he can be found Non ocare in acaos in re Here is another state more harder then the other let me tell you The light in knowledge doth finde out the Devil or the true knowledge doth out the Devil but to open the fore-cited state it is thus the English minde all you curious quick wits while I define unto you this deceivng Devil the English of the stated Greek maxim is this Not the lightest in confusion in the thing Sed oculus in ve alli nen But the eye in life sees no Devil or darkness but it is a severation from light that is a composure of dark and seeming light and this is Hell or Devil Quando in operati avaret nel medad al in re sem addi aal oli abbit sole toro oâ—abit al beneam sabat The English is this When in work he varieth then the eye sees the Cave or Hell but the high thing sees no Devil but himself for he and his sight sees no evil or darkness or devil Solat arry absadet ve The English is this The safe strength evadeth the Lye I have gone thus far in this scarch and cannot finde a composed Devil that is a substance and that substance a place of residence Quoas amalum sarbat alu alaous in amarere semer allat vel nede mem in re sabat altra nebat The English is How or why doth light discover the Lye Why it is the beauty of his owne transcendencie The darkness is a shade for light Wherein it doth it self delight Thus if truely understood Then the Devil is viewed But to let the state downe thus God in his Essence before he came forth in created appearances was all light and Gods vailing himself in earthly appearances hath eclipsed as it were to the heighth of our expression his glory in his Essential Essence in his created derivative appearances so that the light shineth in the darkness and the darkness comprehendeth not the light but the light illustrating causes a banishment of darkness then there is no Devil not Death but a dayly Resurrection in glory into the pure and divine being which is God in and with us a derivative yet one in the all light Essencie which is Teri-al But to come to state this envy Devil and man all in one Trine thus man is the Devil thus the Spirit in man is the Devil and that by reason of the abstract it was abstracted from it is quick and fugitive and lusteth to envy nay t is envy and envy is the Devil Semus in ar I-in-e it is the alone lustful deceit in man for know whatsoever centereth not in God is a Devil for in the reducement there is as the whole Church called in England for know it is but a called Church and call is but a Ly and not the thing they all hold only that in the reducement that we must go either to Heaven or Hell unto God or unto the Devil and these two are as it were Paymasters as God the Father of mercy and the Devil the Father of envy Now you that are not in God ye must be and are in the Devil thus the Devils Trine made and upheld thus the Spirit of man is mans proper all thus it is the life of man as he is natural man until that spiritual light hath made it one by inlightning it and so it obeying that light there is an union made in one and so all one in union with that glorious Essence it was descended from for the darkness is unvailed and light hath caused obedience so that the day and night are both one and night is gone in that clear day Now the Devil his Trine is thus the Devil is the Serpentine Spirit in man that opposeth the light of God and while that Spirit is uncast forth man is wholly ruled by the lusts of the Devil and his acts are in darkness in all deceivea bleness in unrighteousness for Satan and he is one Minde Chirsts words to Peter Get thee behinde me Satan then Peter was the Devil acting in that dark Spirit or dark light Now how can it be properly said to be a dark light thus the light is life and the darkness is death therefore where darkness resides in predominacie then a dark light but the word runs thus they shall be cast into utter darkness Quande avalet armi assem pele avaret axzi pele Ethrati leget almae amaset doly The English is this But the state is dark for it is the denotation of Hell and you hold it all of you to be dark then minde this is a dark state for it is Greek because the major language lies in the Greek tongue and the other languages are but conjuncts to the Greek and from the Greek tongue this great deceivable Devil was clustrated though what he is and where he dwels all men that have said they have been Christs Embassadours could never define to this day Now I English the dark fore-cited state mind When the contrary receives strength the light is eclipsed and the light increasing darkness vanisheth away and flyeth in his airy Kingdome of which Kingdome he the Devil is Lord predominate for the light causes his combinement to his airy Region Now to be Priest-like as you call him though the holiness in all men I honour and holiness in man or men that is the true Priest and not prating man but holy acts from the true root that is a demonstration that the true Priest dwels there minde these words for ye shall all be Kings and Priests unto God but he that nameth Christ must depart from every evil way Now you say man cannot think a good thought then know he cannot turne from his evil way it is granted but to come close where the evil way is not departed from that man hath but prated and never heard Christ preach in them words are included both the called Priests and people for if the Priest be not turned he prateth Christ never preacheth in him and Christ never sent none but he preached in him first and by their voice they sounded forth to the people all this is nothing yet for the Devil may and doth speak as high in expressing words of godliness as any in light can do but when you come to search the root it is but a sound and not a doing or reforming to that that was spoken for Brethren until you are doers you are Devils and lyers I will give you one more It is not he that heareth my words saith our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ but he that doth my will that man or woman or both are my Disciples but the same that the Spirit did denote to my brother John the Baptist the same confer I unto your capacity to judge of upon whom thou
and woman them names and spelling and much invention of man interwoven in the named Scripture Now the word of God written upon the soul that is the Scriptum est that is it is written in the Spirit what is that that is written it is this holiness unto the Lord written in thy soul by tha finger of God that is it that shall stand thee in stead and not what is writ in another or by another or what another shall write for let me tell thee O thou man and woman where and when God writes that then the false conception in man or woman ceases which power is in the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ as he is a Saviour and not in them dead names called Gospel or Scripture that doth only name a name of his saving us but it is his substance without name that doth save us and deliver us So beloved I would not have you deceived with the dead name but the desire of my soul is that you with my owne ingraftement may be placed in the true thing which is God the Lord. Now Beloved I walking and thus acting know that that you in me count blasphemy is a glorious declarative of truth in righteousness from that ingraftment which is Christ in the soul it is greater then your calling the letter the word of God and the holy Gospel of Christ Now let me tell you that though you see and understand it not Paul said and testified what I have declared and prove me in this point a blasphemer and you must prove Paul a blasphemer This I prove I say that the name is not the thing but a sound from the thing a sound is not a substance anso by consequence a Lyâ— and nothing but an abstract of ayr Paul saith that the better is dead and death killeth What odds is there betwixt Pauls words and mine in this state thus Paul may name or plant and Apollo may water but God giveth the blessing Now if the letter be dead know then all men it is a Lyâ— I prove it thus Things in death or dead are not lively for or what is dead there is but a name and a name is but a Lye for the substance there is withdrawn into the thing which is the life of all things and the name is but the dead ashes of that appearance Judge ye all people is the name life Is it life as thus to illustrate I say I will give such a thing unto such a one that is but name and it is good to the party when it is done that is received from the giver So all names are a lye till â—one be centred in that named name that is the thing spoken of or promised be wholly really performed unto the promised So you see all names are nothings and when the substance is come the promised name is returned into the acted thing Now draw all into one Maxzim it is thus God is the thing of all things and thing is as proper to denote the excellentest union as any word in any or all languages I tell you it is a higher import in the Ori Abba then JEHOVAH You cannot nor must not tell me though you speak from your received opinion what the highest denotation is in any one Language or Tongue for I know all Tongues and Languages and they are but one lighted life in the VE But brethren know God is the Life and all things are but names issued out from that one Life do but reduce them dead names to the living thing then they are not dead names as they were but living things in the thing that state lies dubious and so it shall stand unrefined yet Now Pauls words were the very same for saith he The letter killeth and the name is dead but the word of God abideth for ever turning all things and planting and transplanting all things according to its own pleasure Now the word of God endureth for ever because it is the life on whom all dependances dependeth but death that is all names are but a Lie and nothing but vanity in appearances So you see that a name is not the thing neither is the written insert called the Scripture the word of God for Gods writing is not upon paper but in the heart and spirit of his chosen ones So brethren deceive your selves no longer with that dead Idol of your own making for it is good in its place if a seeing eye enlightned do view it he values it at the true value for brethren our not being our selves makes us see double and that double fight overthrowes our true valuation for that that is good in his own place by our esteem of it it doth thereby become a God unto us for what man over values or over-esteems it is his Idol and by consequence his God Let me speak in the days of our vanity how many Gods have we sacrificed unto Now the shortest way to give a definition to the Querie it is this what have we not sacrificed unto Do not mistake me the sacrificing unto is this It is obedience unto that that is not God as thus I esteem Gold my love is drawn unto nay into it what will not I do that that God will not reward me for Because every God doth seemingly promise reward for every God doth give himself if adored to the person adoring Or thus again I worship Honour how do I idolize that God that will but procure me Honour for Honour is the God I look to be rewarded with Though man goes many ways unto his God yet the end he counts his safe centre and the centre is the end and so a God One more thus God the great Creator of heaven and earth is he unto whom all obedience is due Now he that doth give that due that is onely due unto God alone unto any creature or creatures it is to deny God his Creator his Royal pre-eminence Now this sacrifice doth every man in his dark condition as the Apostle saith Such were we in times past when we lived in the lusts of our own desire fulfilling our envious mindes in all lustfulness But now minde here is that that destroys all but here comes the separating power of breaking asunder our connexion that is Gods Word coming in power But when the mercifulness of God our Saviour appeared not through the righteousness that we had done but minde of his free mercy he saved us by renewing 〈…〉 our souls the new birth whereby they and we and all that are enlightned are renewed by the principle of obedience that is lust is cast forth and obedience is planted and set upon the right object that is upon God and then it acts righteousness and righteously O beloved you high account of the name Gospel and Christians it is the name that is the cause of your greater loss for the true Gospel of Jesus Christ is this DONE in our souls or spirits we doing unto others from that gift which is Gods
free mercy unto us we declare the work of God done in us unto the glory of God the Father the free giver of that free gift for brethren the Apostles must be as bad as ye hold me in this state Be ye doers of his will and not onely hearers onely deceiving your selves All hearing is but a lye that is deceiving until doing be come for the doer shall be justified in his deed and the hearer which is but a sound and a lye shall be cast forth and the doer is he and onely he that shall be received into Christ the Lord this this is the true Gospel Si Deus almorarum in re The English is Love is obeying the thing in all his commands Alui hessena amphi sele oraous-sebe-olat-al The English is this The height in love doth illustrate in the doer to the example and invitation of others O agomeon in a salma onary in reab oly odoneus O the height of love in the creature is in obedience acting the commands of the Creator Savior O alpha in cretura in re saguisse elma amaset in rem The English is this The beginning in the creature is the light from the Creator whereby he acts obedience unto the Lord his God sola alone Theauranjohn Tani the Jew Epistle 14. Wrote at Eltham O Beloved-brethren that eternal word or root it is the Gospel it is not the named word but it is the power Gospel in the soul which is not Christ in name but word God in power overturning the name and planting the thing for the true Gospel hath not nor cannot bear any name that is cypnered out in letters for it is the new creation within the soul and a spiritual work in truth of term cannot be named for a Spirit is spiritual what is the meaning of spiritual it is in import in the word as if it should be said thou Spirit art all and to all there is not nor can be no proper name at all Brethen my insert is beyond Apostolical for it is Evangelical and if you have the Evangelical eye then you see it mystery the litteral eye sees me not I am life if ye see meye are one with me nay we and as many as do see are all but one in the union for through Christ that is o-obedience we are made one with the Father in the celestial center But beloved now I come to cut your state that you are so fast stated in and upon and I shall show your deceiveable state stated and held and maintained and thus I begin I will give your state the precedencie for it was a name and that name was the written Bible and New Testament their names are called and were called so before you and I were borne that is they were called the word of God the glorious Gospel of Christ the holy Scriptures Non sabbah litteras sed sperituus devinus The English is The written letters are not holy but the intendant Spirit it is holy and holy cannot stand on Paper and Ink but in the souls of men in that figure or Image being that man he is the fairest flower in Gods field within this terrestrial Orb and as wholly stands in the soul of man which is but obedience from man unto God so wholly stands the center-bearer in the whole creation Beloved you that are taught in the Spirit know what is spoken for unto you is that teaching given to understand the mysteries of the kingdom Now brethren know that your composure of letters and names in the Bible and the New Testament cannot give true knowledge in this Mystery of the Kingdom for the mystery in the Kingdome it is spiritual and no name can define a spiritual thing for this is the reason the one is Truth the other is a Lye thus the spirit it is Truth Truth it hath a center nay it is the center of all things and all founds or names are but compositions semblances and semblances are no substances and no substance no center therefore nothing a meer Idea a meer Lye a Fancie a Shadow a Vanity Now you will say that I deny the Scriptures now I joyne issue with you your selves mine enemies you shall be judge first it is true I do deny the Scriptures as you hold them forth nor you understand not what you do hold forth that is it I affirm for the insert or Scripture in many places is true according to inserting or writing but it is made a lye by your practising This is the Scripture I affirme to be true Scriture First I hold the Scripture to be true if truely wrote you understand me not I pass now I tell you you understand not the Scripture but you make the Scripture false for the Scripture is true they admonish all to love one another then wherefore doest thou see thy brother in need and wherefore dost thou wrong thy neighbour to set up thy self The reason is this I pray you minde thy self is thy Scripture and thou hast denied the literal word of God that thou callest the word of God and the Gospel but thou deniest Christ the Lord and his commands are cast behind thy back and thou art both Scripture Law and Word and Gospel thy self and so indeed thou art the high Antichrist that is Christ the Law the Word the Gospel the Scripture all these thou art enemy unto nay a destroyer of them all Brethren out of love I intreat you out of knowledge I do admonish you be ye warned of this main condemnation that floweth forth upon you by your owne knowledge and forwardness I beseech you in the bowels of Christ Jesus our Lord and Saviour remember the words of my Brother Peter the Apostle they were these in the daies of our ignorance God winked at but now that all should come to the knowledge of of the truth Now Brethren I beseech you minde what you curious and eloquâ—nt and quick witted ones have gotten by your affirming that the Scriptures as the Bible and the New Testament is the word of God now you know that the word of God abideth for ever and it is a word of power and discerning between the joynts and the marrow nay betwixt the soul and the spirit I beseech you minde It discerneth betwixt the Apostolical doctrine and the Evangelical declarative whereof and from that root I affirm that is the Evangelical expression it is beyond the Apostolical Insertation or writing but to come to the word of God I affirm it to be himself for if it be true word it is true God for God and his word are not two but one â—ntire onely one now know Gods word is of that power nay it is that power that over-turneth all things into it self Now minde I beseech you the Scripture that you say is the word of God you are a greater and stronger word then it for it calls for obedience you will not obey therefore by consequence you are a greater God then
the Scripture or the word of God which ye call or count to be the word of God Would you know the highest of what it is I tel you it is the writing Appestolical pointing to the life Evangelical of which things I am come forth to speak unto that you might not be no longer deceived by the Appestolical dead name but to be drawn to the view in light into the Evangelical living thing Now minde upon this comes your nondemnation that you know the Scriptures and hold them in so high esteem in the name as for to be the true word of God and though ye say this and dispute thus and persecute them that say not as you say I intreat you take notice you are the abominable belyers of your owne word of God as you call it for you say it is truth then why act you not in that truth againe you say you know it to be Gods word then know that if it were Gods own word and thou taught that knowledg by God who is the giver of knowledge thereby to know him to be the onely true God this knowledge turneth the receiver of it into obedience and then he sees God as he is for he seeth God with Gods owne eye that is true sight without mixture Now if God had taught thee then it had been effectual to the turning thee into obedience and know so taught so kept for where God teaches he keeps and obedience acts forth in distributives of mercie love pity and compassion for Gods teachings are alwaies effectings and from them effectings flow forth actings of mercy unto thy poor distressed brethren which is a declared seal unto the people that thou art taught by God himself and sealed with Gods seal for know so long as you are but sayers ye are Devils and lyers and when you come to be doers then ye begin to declare that God hath taught you the true Gospel as for ye and your Gospel and your word of God so long as it lies in the tongue so long it is a lye untill the tongue in that body be turned into hands and them hands be made doing distributively unto every one in necessity then I say Id east non literas sed spiritus et divitie The English is this It is not letters or names but the Spirits riches which is planted in the soul and hath silenced the lying tongue and hath caused an operation in the hands to be acted forth unto the members of the same body whereof Christ is the head if ye will be Christs disciples ye are to sell all and follow him as he hath commanded this is the word of God and you know the text then how are ye Christs servants withstanding the commands of your master but I take this for granted this is a hard saying and who can bear it I answer he that commanded it for if thou wert but out of thy devilish knowledge then thou wast in Christs strength and his strength is thy strength if he be thy teacher then no command is hard because the strength that commanded in that same strength it is obeyed But now I will show you how you are all cheated and deceived that are not in that strength it is thus ye are learners of Christ and ye are treasurers up of names and verses and texts and disputes and answers all this is learning of Christ Now I Theauraujohn say and declare this day that Christ cannot be learned nor taught for know that the height of learning is but getting the name But I beseech you brethren minde it is Gods free gift conferring the thing into the soul that is it that makes an oneness betwixt thee and himself thou hast learned the name but he is the true thing that will not nor cannot stoop to thy naming his name for the name is a meer lye without the thing which lye art thou until the thing named be come which thing is Gods free gift or Christ in the soul alas what makes all this disunion or division amongst us and variety of opinions as is amongst us at this day I will show you the reason it is because we gather unto us names and them names are variously named and so by this we our selves gather our selves into these opinionated names and gatherings together but mind we are not gathered by God himself but our selves gather our selves into selected companies and then judge others that are not as we are when indeed we are all this while but a name which is but a Ly for know if we were gathered by the Spirit of God then no division would be amongst us but an intire oneness in the union Spirit for whom and them that the Lord gathers they continue for they are centered in the alone center Now here is the difference betwixt our gathering our selves into Churches and Companies and we being gathered by Gods Spirit its gathering us thus God gathers all out of us that is all our names notions oppositions and prejudices after them weeds are gathered and bound up and cast forth then he maketh the great Allah alba that is the high white plain in us and of us and in that white plain he gathers together and plants in that plain made plaine by his own word this to be expressed in words Hevi-altiel The English is to say Behol◠the great plaine of the Lords making Now this is the Lords paper fitted for him to ensigne himself in Now this plaine being thus made now comes the ensignement which in words is thus denoted in Hebrew Oli el vau ו which is in import as the words do stand relatives unto Hevi altiel The English is this The whole light in man is againset in God this is the second Viva vita that is The spirit of man is made obedient to act Gods will and from this Ensignment flowes holiness unto the Lord. Now thus gathered thus they ever stand and that that keeps them it is Degitus dei in kor allah apparan hashsha The English from this Hebraick state it is this That that keeps them it is the finger of God wrote upon and in the cleane and high table in the heart of soul of man by the high strength of God in power overturning all false writings and then ingraving himself in his holy mount for saith the Lord I dwell in the humble and meek spirit Now ye proud ones consider who is it that dwells in you for God dwels in the humble plaine soul in the dejected spirit O beloved the mourning spirit is an Angels feast O a poor pure heart is the Evangelical Throne Therefore ye poor ye weak ye nothings in your selves why are ye cast down it is because the Spirit of God doth rest upon yee and in that glory that now you see your selves nothing then are yee the happiest happy for your Iow nothingness in your selves it is Christs riches in you that hath made you so and ye are clothed with all and that all

and understanding to the prudent time is time is not not is time and time is not now times are two and times are one not two times but one and that onely one In trinas in re that is three in one thing O Beloved if ye perceive any thing in me that is light know that it is this That I know the Land shall be destroyed therefore I beseech you that fear the Lord humble your selves and walk low in love for the time of vengeance hastens O a fire is coming I tremble to hear thereof therefore walk humbly before God that in the evil day you may escape as brands plucked out of the fire Brethren what I say unto you I practice in my owne person for abstenance and sorrow are my companions crying to God for my peoples gathering and my complaint unto my God is this O Lord thou hast made me naked before this people and hast caused terrible things to be declared when I was not my self but know that mad men so mad fools your owne proverb is oft-speak truth I have cryed in the streets I have declared what I have received yet who among you is departed from his evil waies my heart panteth and my spirit faileth and is weary because I see such small turnings unto God by obedience O Beloved that you were not more stupid then the beasts in your understanding you might easily perceive that if there be any God as by many mens and womens living they declare that there is not else they would not nor durst not do now as they do in this time of deceit O shall not the Lord throw downe his wrath in his fury and anger upon this hypocritical this all-tongue Nation But O people deeds of mercy is not amongst ye for the Lord hath looked from heaven and behold nothing but oppression is found in her Now know O England that thou art but a scourge to others to be scourged for scourging O ye that fear the Lord happy are ye for when destruction comes upon the World then even then is the time of your rejoycing for the righteous shall rejoyce when he seeth the vengeance coming Now we that fear the Lord are now dead but in afflictions then we live so beloved unto you poor dejected ones am I sent with the Olive-leaf of peace even unto you who are the precious ones in the sight of the Lord though in low esteem in the world nay necessity so overpowreth you that many of you want bread O this wanting bread in our Nation doth declare we live but in the name Gospel for refreshing the poor and releiving the needy this is the Gospels true thing for which my soul mournes in secret to hear and see the name Gospel cryed so high and doing which is the true Gospels not owned amongst us O what a dishonour is it to the Gospel that amongst us care is not taken to supply the poor Now I will show you the reason it is this every man being a Gospel unto himself that is the cause I prove it thus if thou did once owne Christs words to be Gospel then thy self Gospel is cast forth but thou ownest thy owne Gospel that is thy owne self-will to be the truest Gospel and so Christ and his Gospel is cast forth for thou sayest Christ shall not reign over thee by thy actions in plain English words thou declarest no less therefore brethren I beseech you every one of you free your selves from this high deceit and set to your seals that it is true for doing is a seal unto others what the Lord by his Spirit hath done in thee try whether thy walking and actions be ruled by Christs prescript or writing which thou callest the word of God now if thou actest contrary thou art word and Gospel and God unto thy self for his ye are to whom ye obey one thing I will state clear to you wise ones the point is this you say that the Bible and the New Testament they are the word of God I say you belye them in saying so for know if Gods word were of no more power and force in it self then it is in the insert or Testament I say you are a greater word and a God then that is I prove it thus that that you say is Gods word commands obedience unto something you in actions act contrary how can this be Gods word that cannot over-power you I pray you minde Now you are Gods word for the greatest strength that is Gods word and your strength commands that that is there commanded and you act freely your owne will now let all judge whether that you be not a greater word then that you calls Gods word nay you make it a Lye and become a God unto your selves Let all people judge now for you to acknowledge that writing to be Gods word and you are not reformed by that word I tell you you make God a Lyer thus God saith that his word is life and you say you know it to be so why then knowledge in truth of that word it is life unto all that it is commanded unto but it is death to thee because thou hast taken the bare notional name and unto thee was the word never sent in power which is the communicated thing Now let me speak unto you here is the difference Christ saith I am the door the way and the life Christ saith I am the eternal word now what is this unto any man until Christ be become thus unto us I tell you we are before he come and abide with us we are unclean spirits witches and sorcerers deceivers for we would climbe over another way then Christ hath taught us I am the door saith Christ but your actions answer for you you will go in another way that is by the power of your owne strength This is every namer and national gatherer in the whole world which is cast forth at Christs owne appearing and then all that you counted gain unto you is become loss unto you through the excellency that is in Christ Jesus our Lord. O that ye did but know what this Lord Jesus Christ is or that you could bear my knowledge in the thing El massah arkad axsi sephraim aspah salma oni pele labat arbattha koersim semar axsi The English to what it will bear God the Saviour is onely strong and omnipotent in every thing and he alone is the restorer of himself in the whole creation in appearances for this end
God is light which is love now what is the Devil he is death and darkness which is deceit Now see the distincts in these two light and darkness God and the Devil now if God or Christ be risen in us to such a hight or perfect measure of manifestation of himself that by his light we are subjected to act onely from that root which root is love distribute then are we said to be properly in God because the derivative Essence raigns in flesh as the regencie essence raigns in the raigning all then the figure in the earthly form it is as true in truth as the regency essence is in the reigning all that is the true patern figurative figure in sanctum sanctorum that is to say the holy holyest that word Est is the binding Maxzim in the reconciling any or all Maxzims but to love which is God acting in mercie towards nay in 〈◊〉 his Creation thus the influences of his mercifulness filleth all things in Heaven and earth but it is conveyed through many motional motions of Earth Ayre Water and Fire Elements in the Konaxci part or the binding part outwardly in the celestial predominacies in the fiery Regions in the Helmetta that is in the burning light in the inshuting conclave of Sol in his Mida in re that is in the middle of the thing that is the truest and perspicuousest demonstrative of God figuratively of the whole all altogether created of God that is to say thus much The Sun is the truest truth of figures in all Gods appearances in the whole created Terrestrial for the Sun is secundus vita vive in orbis that is the second living life in the created world yet he is Death to the living life which is denoted Oli-al them two Hebrue directers Oli Al it is the height of expression that is letten down unto the Sons of men nay or the denomination unto Angels for it is thus much in the import that is to say The light Al or the Al light from whence all things descend in strength they invalid are weak by reason of the combustable cumbersome shrine they are invailed in or shut in which is weakness to the strength in the inside spirit that is the life for life cannot be touched with weakness but weakness it is made sensible by that life for the weakness of it self so called though indeed and in truth if it were duly weighed and radically understood there is but one in all appearances be what it will for that that is not nor hath not a center cannot be properly nor unproperly said to be any thing Now let me speak thus God the Sun and Man they make one Trine that Trine receding is union in the Regencie Essence though two derivatives and both essencied one in another as the life of man hath an essence in the Sun I speak Terrestrial so the Sun being a celestial body it is essencied in God for from him all these appearances came and their recedings are from him and their renewings are to him in strength Now to prove the terrestrial man for to be in Trine with the Sun and with God the Father of all things it is thus God he is the All-Creator of the All-Things The Sun is the second light from God in strength influentive into the terrestrial creation through the celestial motional motions which motions being moved with the union motion they cause the produced product for to appear in the terrestrial world Now the word terrestrial is not yet fully understood but the word doth import thus much Terra that is the earth or earthly that is Forma a forme or semblances for though terra be the earth yet it is the the appearances in all earthlinesses so much for the word terra sub intelligiter Forma in Terras Now I come to the binding or middle connection that is Esterial that is the binding inclue of that word Est that is to say is Now know that est is the binding of all maxzims into one Radical Center so that here you see that ter is bound in est so that it is to say the earth is Now if you truly understood what this est is it is the all of all things for God is and that very is is God who is all things in appearances whereof the earth is one ponderous composure of IS so much for Ter Est Now I come unto Terial and terial that word doth import the earth tyed to the Creator of all thus God that produced the earth himself he is the Mida or middle of connexed things that word Cied it is the same with IS if radically understood Now combine the word together then in the property of true speech the meaning of the word Terresterial is this the world or the earth made by God tyed in that God who is the middle of that earth that is the center and that center or middle is God in every thing and himself nothing and yet he the all of earth and all things One word more terrestrial thus God is the earths life for of him it had a being and he is the restorer of it and it is restored by the essence TIE that it lies tyed to in God and by that tie or essence by his influence it is restored and renewed daily Now Scholars here is one glimps of my knowledge though I am unlearned But blessed be his name that after my strong affliction he hath poured a sea of knowledge into my soul that is thus much Oli El the light of God in the soul of man from which light doth flow forth these expressions that you hear me declare O avallo seon

O the greatness of things cannot demonstrate the heavenly light but that light doth demonstrate it self as it self pleases that is the english of the fore-cited state or citation in the tongues Now Beloved I have shown you one glimps of Gods goodness and Gods greatness in his distributive destributive in distillation into and upon the creation in appearances by his illustrious influences in strength conveyed from himself through the celestial Attire that is the high moving motions in the sphere celestial and so is conveyed by the Sun through the Moon into every receptacle appearance in the terrestrial world or forme or chaos I prove it so for what is not union is a chaos I speak it as relative to man but it is union unto God his varieties in themselves is his delightful union in himself Now beloved I come to shew you how man is essencied in God and then how he is like God in the earthly figure and if he be renewed to his figure that is the life of Christ risen up in man in predominacie where man is wholly subjected to the will of God that is man to be wholly passive and the spirit of God to be the sole and whole rule in the spirit of man then the figure is as true in the derivative essence as it is in the raigning all Now beloved I come to shew you man that is man drawn up by the Spirit of God into union with God as saith one Text Whereby we have an union with the Father through one spirit that Text varieth little from the Original in its import for it is thus whereby our union is made one through Christ. O how I could joy if there were no more dismeeter in the whole conclave of the old and new Testament then had I not had this trouble that my manhood lies under the zeal I have against the aspersion that by weak and vain man is laid upon God onely by the ignorance in man and his false conception that man hath upon the sacred Majesty of God that is in not ful understanding the denotation that God hath letten down to put motional man to a stand or stof But now I come to denote how man is said to be like God that is the earthly patern of the Divine thing in sanctum sanctorum now man being made obedience he acts in love from that Root obedience which word in the Hebraick terme is Rokas in the Greek tongue it is Kias in the Latine word it is Cristus but you would have it Cartas but the word is neither Cristus nor Caritas but the true nominative case is Cristos in the true Latine the import is binding that is the full import of the word Rokas which is the essence from whence all these are derived from for the Hebrew is Pimus maxzi that is the first great strength that is the significant of Rokas Now know that obedience is the all required of man and obedience is the all gift from man to God that is the Rokas or binding strength of man to God by Gods own gift that is thus much in import In one Text I saith God will give them an obedient heart and they shall fear me Now this obedience is Gods free gift into man that is to say in truth of words it is Christ in the soul now in man is this obedience set which is Christ or the Spirit or the holy Ghost or the new Birth or the Angel of God in man Now know that at the descent of the Spirit into the Soule of man it causes in the Soul an erection of the heavenly figure then doth the Pattern temporal act in true truth in the Pattern as it is in the Seater Though it be but a derivative yet it is in sanctification holding coherent with the Essence it was derived from Now I may truely speak if truely understood it is thus much God in man and man in God that is by the derivative Essence essencied in Flesh and yet not flesh but the subjecter of flesh to it self and so both unto God so the marriage is compleated in the union of one Spirit being thus God in himself and in man by his Spirit this is the true pattern of the divine and sacred Trinity operative in the earthly form which is the figurative pattern of the trine celestial yet all in one which in property of is speech Jehovah or Al for Al if duly considered in this new dispensation but it is but the old truth reduced to his Originalest center in the true declarative which by reason of mans false conception of God and his declarative so that the truth in the litteral expression is buried and one of Gods declaratives mixed with mans invention by mans conceiving it to be so and he not knowing the true import of the various maxzims in their combinements in themselves and with others in their addititional coherencies and adjuncts Now in this Sate if truely understood the learned Rabbies may perceive that by my pointing at these Maxzims being I am unlearned in what I declare it might be a satisfactory satisfaction for them either to affirm against me or else to acknowledge it to be true what I say least I do conclude that their silence doth give consent through their ignorance in the citation I declare Now I have drawn up man and stated him in his called center or earthly form to what can be required or can be attained to in which man may in property of speech be said to be like God by the Spirit of God predominating in man to mans subjectancie in the whole to the Spirit thus that man beareth this Motto from God his owne writing be thou like me in my humane creation this is the new creation that God makes or the called new birth in every one that is brought forth unto God Now I come to the declaratives that this new birth if truely born and brought forth unto God OF you think would have been the true word as to have said to be born of God that very OF makes all the state false for in a true state there must not be a false letter so in a true sentence there must not be a false word and know that in the Translation in the Major OF is read in the divine and sacred expressing or writing Now minde I will not neither can I give it the name Scripture if it were but for that one word OF and that word but named once in the whole book for minde we have and do read OF an Affirmative and it is in our language or speech a Negative Now I come not to dwel in the name or shadow
but to look into the center I mind not what is said but the true truth is in truth the thing is and now blessed be the Lord my God he doth increase my understanding Now mind I come to shew not what is written but what in your hearts you hold a zeal for the same I ever did since God gave me light and it is this the Scriptures and the Gospel for the defence of them through the strength of my God I would lay down my life for them Now I will show you that in terme that I may say that I and you at this day are so zealous for that is the Scriptures so called now the God that you ignorantly worship him show I unto you and I beseech you take special notice even you that are but notional and you likewise My brethren that are zealous but not according to knowledge as through Gods goodness I shall make appear Non est nome sanktus in re sabat akzi a malet oli in rem medad alphi sele arbat al. The English from this Hebrew state and yet both Latine Greek and Arraback and Caldee all these tongues to make a true harmonious assent in consent But lest you learned Rabbies should contend with me that am unlearned onely English I have and that no man worse but I will give you one hint of knowledge and learning denoted unto me by the Spirit and what spirit let the declaratives of it self speak and the obedience and actions of my life speak forme and so all judge Look you be clean within and then you judge righteous judgement But now Scholars know that the major includes the minor so the major in that state is Hebrew wrote in Kof ק that is the second strength in writing Now let me tell you Schollars I will but state three Hebrew words and I will make their majority carry the state of five lines of Latine stated but they will not carry so much in no tongue for know the nearer you come to the center which is the Hebrew the more you disearet the weak connexions dependancies For know that the Arraback and Caldee and Syrriack and the Muscovite in their original center are as it were in the edge or verdge of the Hebrew Now you will say that the majority of them languages is Hebrew it is granted but write you in any one of them languages it is not Hebrew So though the Hebrew her Regencie be over the languages yet her predominacy may be eclipsed by another tongue when she is but an adjunct in the state or sitation for know that in all tongues and languages there is an union consent and assent in a composed composure in their coherents and the truth flowes from the head to the foot and ascends from the foot to the head as the rivers from the sea to the sea their centred center But this knowledge in truth of knowledge by man is not to be understood and none but the Spirit of God whose conveyances is in and through all tongues into one language that is the scriptum est Now brethren your long patience is your expectation of what is Scripture I beseech you mind I cannot come when I would to open the state or citation out of the tongues though my desire is as great as yours can be ye though I am weary I cannot leave writing the mysterie that lies in the Hebrew state last cited when I thought to have open'd it when I named the english I could never come at it till now non est nome sanklus in re Now I beseech you mind the english of the forecited state The name is not the holy thing now I read negatively The holy thing denyes any name in truth of thing but is and is in truth hath no name Now mind since the world was there was not a greater denotation by the spirit of the truth in God than this Now there is another citation in the same Hebrew state which is this The true Scripture 't is the divine life of God in the soul and it is written by and with Digitus Dei the spirit finger or finger spirit by God O that destroying of it wounds and destroyes sense for according to our Translation digitus Dei the finger of God that word of undoes the state Now I shall show you how your zeal is evacuated and how you come misled concerning that you call the Bible and new Testament calling them the Scriptures or the word of God the Word was made flesh and in that flesh there is a Table and a Book that even that God doth write upon that is Holmess to himself But to come to speak to you brethren even ye blind persecuting Zealots truly I love you all and pity all for ye cannot do right till light be come Brethren I demand of you from whence zeal proceeds if it be true zeal in light it proceeds from that scriptum est that is from that inward and inmost Vail unvailed though you know it not Now know but this that nothing without can give life to your zeal within but it lives in it self and from that small appearance within to the notional man he as he is sees outwardly and he catches at the glimmerings within and through that false conception he states all without upon mans writing or the Signam manum or sign of a mans hand of mans spellings so man not drawn into obedience to the spirit of God within he builds upon outward words and names in books without Now I beseech you mind did any of you receive remission of sins by mans preaching you and I my self did think so thus such a man is a man of God and he is able to turn any man now how was that because Gods power within thee did begin to unfetter thee for it was Gods spirit did begin inwardly to illustrate and thy resurrection and walking was from that light within and thou accounted that it was done by man or hearing or reading here thou wast a greater Idolater then before now here thou sacrificest to man and in this act thou makest and accountest him thy God converter or the Bible or Testament were thy Idols when indeed and in truth it was onely the alone descent of Gods mercy conveyed by his spiritual light arising in thy soul that caused thy awaking from the corruptible estate of death and darkness Now mind I desire to know of you my brethren whether the knowledge doth lye outwardly in objects declared or in the inmost or inward understanding in the spiritus that is in the spirit in that word θ in that import it is a Greek word and it doth denote God his Spirit that is θ spirit and you read it the spirit not understanding the import of the word Now if that be granted that cannot be denyed if duly considered that the understanding lives and lies within the inmost spirit why doth not man act alwaies right and in truth of zeal I answer
though it be Gods Spirit in the heart and the heart be sanctified yet a body of corruption doth remain for know that the inward righteousness cannot be demonstrated outwardly for it is another creation in man and not of man nor by man but by God himself and this creation that is spiritual cannot be demonstrated temporal Now here grows the mistake for the outward motional man that is mans spirit that is quick and motional and so swift that it is a subject of deceit and subject to deceit onely by the a yrie composure it was abstracted from this is mans spirit natural Now to show the maxzim it is this The spirit in the flue or full motion moveth in man this is Gods spirit in man and it doth through the operative power inlighten the dark spirit in man that is mans natural spirit but till that the spirit of God hath wholly subjected the natural spirit of man unto its own light there is a greater declarative of false light than before for when we were dead to life in the spirit of darkness then we were one with the world but being making alive in or by the spirit of God there is a great strong work declared both of truth and the lye by a strong motion acting in strength that is when the strong man sin is standing for the conquest and the opposition never ceases till the spirit of God hath gotten the prevalencie Now in this conquest by the spirit of God this natural spirit speaketh great names of things till that the spirit of God come like a sithe and cuts down the natural spirit even by the roots and causes an erection of righteousness then where sin did abound there grace shall abound much more unto the praise or glory of God which is denoted in this Hebrew word Gehest the ancient Greek word is Siah the Latine word is Cristus but I say Cristos the Hebrew word doth denominate thus much A root a strength unresistable a Forme a Tower and a Cave and a Circle The Greek word Siah doth import to know or overcome or to remain or sent the Latine word Cristos doth import an anointing a knowing and it will bear no more Now know that Massah is a Saviour and a Deliverer now all these is but the Gospel in the intendant Now let me speak to you all that can be spoken of the Gospel that glorious word and that magnificent transcendantest Gospel which word and Gospel are two words but one entire beauty of excellency that is not your called word of God neither Bible nor the new Testament nor that you call Gospel and the word of God but every life appearance is Gods word and not dead letters or names set together now that you are zealous for I my self have been as great a Zelot for them dead names called the written word of God Now I will show you that which in truth none in majoritie can deny that is this Gods word is truth and endureth for ever you cannot deny this The Word was made flesh that Text is false for the word in truth is in that Text the Word dwelt in flesh now mind the soul of man enlightned by Gods spirit is the Gospel the Word and the Truth and the living life of God in man for then God is said to dwell with men that is when God rules by his Spirit in the soul that is the Gospel and the holy word of God in the soul and not the dead letters and names that we by reading do so idolize and I do affirm that by man it is made the great Idol in Europe by this false conception for man thinks that he renews from that outward word and knows not that it is the gift of God illuminating within One word more to conclude this point Do you think that motion in the soul arises from without or from the life principle within judge ye whether your understanding be not within your selves every one of you the truth of that true knowledge is the gift of God into thy soul and this is thy Idolatry that thou sacrificest the gift given to be learned in from the dead name of mans false composure of names together so thou makest the living God and his richest and greatest gift to be conferred to thee through that and from and by that dead name written word or name Gospel Now word and Gospel it is the living life of God in you by the Spirit of himself that is the Gospel judge ye all whether it be so or not for as I have declared 't is not the name that can confer the thing but the thing it self doth confer it self without the name and then man speaketh the name from the thing done that is in short thus much God hath given the Gospel or the Spirit or the Word or life into the soul of man then it is Scriptum est it is then inwritten digitus Dei with the finger of God O! that of undoes all but I intend it another thing then is there stated Now know that the word of God cannot be written by none but himself here again you are all deceived that thinks that it can be wrote by man for know that the word of God abideth for ever it is the living life of God in the soul and that is wrote by and with the finger by God himself for the naming the words that flows from the ingraftment that is the light of God in the soul Now write this upon paper it is but a lye compare it with the truth in the heart for that Scriptum est in cor that is the writing in the heart by the finger of God it remains for ever Wherefore doth it remain for ever Enim est digitus Dei for it is written by the finger of God and that writing is and is is that writing and cannot be defaced and that writing causes the soul to move from death to life at last raises the soul into the celestial center O amalam orbeus in re fasisti nebat alli El. The English is O the evil in the eye of the soul by the writing of God upon that soul is cast forth Now I intreat you mind all people this is all the contest betwixt me and the enemies of light that is this I say by the grace given me that the name is not the thing now you say that the name is the thing by consequence but you understand not what you say You say that the Bible and the new Testament is the word of God which I deny and I affirm it is but the name of that word and falsly spell'd and set together and mans invention added in many places for ends of concernment Now I say the word of God can no man write but God himself and to ascribe that to the writing that belongs to God himself you thereby rob God of his glory and are grievous Idolaters Now let me speak I say there is such a

from the Tongue you understand not but this The high notation of hell doth unbottom it Thus that that hath such a high and great name that causes fear t is Darkness and darkness is not knowledge now that that is not known cannot have a senter and that that hath no senter cannot have a being for if a being it must be in God I prove it thus God is the being of all beings and they refined returne to their senter from whence was their original fountain Now this Hell or Locallity of place I desire all the English Clargy with their Essence Cleargy that is Romes called Priests For brethren you are but Romes derivacie and Romes derivacy is from the Greek Tongue and the called Testament in which Testament is many snares and feares to uphold the Popes supremacy and their and your trade of lies and this Local Hell and the Devil are the fearful constellations from whence ye furiously Thunder to make men afraid that you may thereby strengthen your selves by the peoples submssion unto you and that Whore learning that you have set up Now Priests in short I desire to know how you came by your Apostolical calling for you to say you are Priests and are of the Apostolical Institution that I shall try and leave it to the people to judge of whether ye are so or no If it prove you are not then are ye Blasphemers and that Harlots locust that hath deceived the Nations And the first Maxim I do lay down to prove it by is this Hos se ad me nelle one Sem albat ar oâ—au sâ—on hassbuâ—pâ—loct adba deleous in re This is the English Maxim to the height it will bear all People minde for I am putting a leaver into the Priests roots to unbottom them from that Lye called Apostolical Calling which they hold Juri divino Brethren ye Priests here is a deep search making into your Rooâ—s or bottoms now comes the English from the hebrew citation that is this I pray you minde How slew the apostolical fore seeing to ye named Priests and the world never heard of it This is one state in that Maxim there is two more Sates in that Sitation Now Schollars is it not strange that from one abstract of Language to read in English three States as an Affermative and a Negative and both their derivatives in one intire Essence The second State though negative read is affermative I Theauraujohn Eval alsiel do declare that ye Priests are lyers and deceivers neither have you any thing to do in or with the Apostolical function for ye are not anointed by God as all and every one of his true Messengers were and are This I know by what the Lord hath made know unto me Now if you are what you say and would have us so to esteem you so your Derivative must be the Cords binding us up unto that beliefe which must be Miracles Signes and Wonders for thus you must be Witnesses of his second Comming then you know it must be in greater appearances in glorious manifestation this you cannot deny Brethren ye Priests I do not come to flatter you but to hew and out you up by the roots Another quere I desire that the Clargy may answer What peace or reconciliation hath issued from your called Gospell in Europe but woful murdering one another for your prating and lying quarrels If yee were Ministers of the Gospel then peace would follow your declarings but who more ready then the Priests to ingage the people one against another for your owne Hellish ends O that God would be pleased to open the eyes of our States that they would but look into the Clargies black bottom from whence our misery arises for there cannot be peace in England till that Caterpillar locust be swept out of the place of Regency Now Priests you will run to the Secular power and there lies your Cabâ—â— of strength to uphold you you say such men are Blasphemers and cry out upon them and then to the Majestrate to help you to hold up your Trade Now know that can be no Gospel That must be upheld by a humane Law But it is the Lye in the whole earth For the Gospel is Love and then no Law But the Law makes it a trade and the Law is your strength Now shew me how many Converts did your Master Christ inforce into his Conregation by a humane Law but love was the tying Cord that bound his together The Law is an inforcement to Idolatry but not to the Gospel because the Gospel is Love Now Priests I shall desire no favour at your hands but that we may come before the State and People and if I do not prove your Calling a trade of Lyes and deceit I will be content to suffer for my aspersing you If so it be found but I must not have Priests to accuse and Priests to judge this is not with the priviledge nor liberty nor freedome of our Nation For the Bishops are gone and I Theauraujohn say that the Cleargy shall not long stand therefore your rage is great ye Priests I pray you tell me how many sides and turnings would you take so that at last you might but turn in your own designe all that can be Imagined One more how came you to have your holy Calling conferred unto you I deny any man can confer the holy gift or holy anointing from Generation to Generation sixteen hundred year and more together This I answer If man can confer Gods gift I affirm he is as great nay greater then God himself I prove it thus God gave his Spirit in fulness to Christ being the first in the Trine descending in Vive Vosa the Apostles they were indued with the same Spirit but not in that full measure These Misteries no man under heaven knowes yet but that light in me who is the true discoverer of his owne secret intendants One more Ye Priests that have dranw unto you a congregated companie called members of a Church nay you would be called the Church Apostolical or according to the Apostolical institution Now I deny any man to be a Priest according to the Apostolical institution as for the desidement I refer to the juditious people to Judge of Now I say that there was not nor is not any true visible Church Select in any visible appearance since the Apstles time Thus there is true members but not a true gathered Church Apostolical in that you are deceived thus and in this ye take the name of their words but the power that did recead and accompany them words is retracted and hath been since that Revolution of the Apostles for that manifestation was confermed for the bringing in the Heathen to the acknowledgment of God and was
confirmed by miracles singes and wonders Then the Spirit did detract as of the detraction Christs death was the figure Now I will shew you what a Church Apostolical was and is the people are gathered by the Spirit of God by which Spirit they are made a seeing and a discerning people Then the Priest ought to be the discerning East and the seeing East of them people then that is a Head and Members of which temporal figure Christ and the Evangelical Spirits is the truth in the true senter in Perfection As Moses was commanded See thou make them like the pattern I shewed thee in the Mount Know he must be in the Mount with God that doth take his pattern from God in his declarative Them words were wrote long ago and now are comming forth in glory to be made good which is proper to Christs second comming in Visible power in signes and wonders of which declarative I Theauraujohn am the morning light declaring the peaceful tideings at hand Now ye Congregated Priests what a brasen whorish forehead have you put on your selves that you dare assume to your selves the hight of the Apostolical foreknowledge in that you dare act and give and deliver up to Satan Now in this you have declared your selves to be Antichrist in his full lusture in appearances as I shall open plainly before all people First I demand of you in my masters name Jehovab that you do produce your president for the matter of Excommunication for mind where that delivering up to Satan was acted forth by the Apostles in them did the Spirit reside and dwell and rest with them in power of signe and miracle which is not declared neither is in the called Church and called Priests for what is more in you and your Congregated companies then is in Antichrist or that Babilonish whore that is spoken of in Scripture For shee deceived the Nations by her Inchantments Sorceries and Witchcraft which is but thus much I intreat you minde it is this The word confined to men confined to time and confined to place I beseech you to take true notice wat Antichrist is and his Sorceries it is the confining the word to men to time and to place I pray minde but this sitacion that is stated and it will unbottome and Excommunicate all ye Priests from your trade of lies Thus prove your selves to be any more then ye have learned then so far ye are in knowledge yet no Priests for let me tel you ye know not what a Priest is Nor what that word Priest meaneth in his full import a Priest is Gods representative in righteousness that is the Image of God in man that is the Priest now let me tell you all even ye gathered Churches ye shall all be broken and God will gather unto him the holy seed from amongst you into one fold And now for men to assume to be Priests and members when indeed he is no Priest neither they all true members for know that apearances doth make members and doth not make true members in the intendant Church which I deny to you for ye are they that are deceived that have got the dead name but ye are not the true living thing yet ye will take authority to name over men that name and the namer is an abomination before God Therefore I desire you that you would but look into your owne waies and search into the bottom for it is darkness which is develish and ye have grievously sinned and blasphemed in taking and assuming unto your selves that glorious name when that is Gods glorious free gist or â—nointing upon man which is Gods inscrption wrote upon man Holiness to the Lord and from this Institution and ingraftment in the true thing which is Gods mercy Brethren by creation ye Priests ye are exhorsists that take up words and names to name over and upon the people of Christ and his Apostles ye intimate the name thinking by them names to do miracles which is but a meer forged falschood for ye your selves are but the dead name and they the Apostles were the true living thing in the true root That was I may say God in the Bottom or root from whence in strength that Voice had power to cast down and cast forth and raise up this was Gods voice from the root that overthrew all opposition but for man to name them words and the effects not follow it is but Antichrist and a lye Brethren be not deceived you are in no better case then thus you think you are rich and need nothing when in truth you are but a name and poor and blind and naked and yet know not the lye is in your right hand and hath deceived you for ye name a name that in truth ye know not But now I pass to the Apostolical effects for the effects followed the Sound or Name That was this the Blind received sight both in Spirit and Body for the Spirit is the healer of the same Body man and men were weaned from the love of the World to sell all and distribute to every necessity as the Pastors saw fit and needful But to answer this before I go any further Ye Priests are ingrosers to your selves greatness and prehemenency and you are Directives to your Congregations so to do for know the Priest ought to be the peoples Eye Then I beseech you people look what a Directive Eye you see withall do you think your eye doth see Apostolically or Hypocritically these two I leave you and the whole world to judge of Now I come to matter of more concernment that is this And behold I saw a new heaven and a new earth the first heaven and the first earth were passed away and there was no more sea And I The auraujohn saw the holy City new Hierusalem come down In Oli-el Emasanet from God out of heaven prepared as a Bride trimmed adorned beautified Selected for her Husband Now the mystery that lies buried within them faint words or weak expressings they are words of life and power and wisdom O sapuit ad amalum in re amamuâ— seba oli Aneratory Salma magit legi amamus sede oli mem oluani saluite Te egromene selmat am al sede oli bene am Salu el odi selose in re This is the English of the Connexion abstracted from the true Original O the Wisdome free from evil it is God himself in his Reigning Essence But man is weakness that is evil yet God doth take this weakness into Strength and adorne it with beauty and excellency That is thus much T is letting downe the New Hierusalem whose beauty is so excellent that it turnes all the beholders of it into it self Now I come to Ephata and open the mysterious words which are these I saw a new heaven and a new earth for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away I beseech you mind what was my brother Johns meaning in this strange and Phiriatical expression was
