the_o house_n upon_o his_o child_n by_o a_o violent_a wind_n he_o can_v do_v any_o thing_n when_o he_o be_v let_v loose_a and_o so_o true_o the_o time_n of_o antichrist_n be_v the_o time_n of_o the_o

to_o look_v after_o dispensation_n of_o a_o high_a light_n by_o vision_n dream_n and_o revelation_n now_o then_o to_o make_v application_n of_o all_o these_o thing_n to_o our_o time_n my_o speech_n and_o exhortation_n be_v to_o they_o who_o among_o we_o have_v depart_v from_o ordinance_n and_o from_o scripture_n and_o be_v now_o for_o extraordinary_a revelation_n my_o earnest_a desire_n be_v to_o they_o that_o they_o will_v lay_v these_o thing_n to_o heart_n if_o they_o go_v on_o if_o they_o build_v upon_o such_o uncertain_a ground_n let_v they_o serious_o consider_v whether_o they_o

of_o that_o sect_n which_o go_v under_o the_o name_n of_o the_o quaker_n what_o they_o be_v and_o who_o they_o be_v god_n know_v i_o do_v desire_n to_o contain_v myself_o in_o such_o thing_n as_o i_o have_v some_o experience_n of_o there_o have_v be_v some_o friend_n of_o my_o familiarity_n heretofore_o who_o i_o do_v conceive_v to_o be_v people_n of_o good_a hope_n these_o as_o i_o have_v observe_v have_v depart_v first_o from_o the_o ministry_n and_o then_o have_v come_v to_o slight_v the_o write_a word_n and_o then_o last_o of_o all_o to_o hang_v upon_o revelation_n and_o extraordinary_a enthusiasm_n of_o the_o spirit_n i_o have_v see_v a_o book_n scatter_v abroad_o by_o these_o man_n it_o bear_v the_o title_n of_o gerard_n winstanley_n his_o new_a law_n of_o righteousness_n the_o argument_n of_o the_o treatise_n be_v that_o the_o propriety_n of_o good_n be_v the_o curse_n lay_v upon_o the_o creature_n that_o all_o thing_n shall_v lie_v in_o common_a and_o that_o the_o whole_a earth_n shall_v be_v bring_v to_o a_o public_a treasury_n for_o probation_n of_o this_o as_o he_o do_v make_v some_o mention_n of_o the_o practice_n of_o the_o apostle_n in_o the_o primitive_a time_n and_o that_o which_o shall_v be_v in_o the_o future_a glorious_a estate_n of_o the_o church_n so_o for_o the_o more_o special_a confirmation_n of_o this_o he_o do_v depend_v upon_o a_o extraordinary_a revelation_n as_o it_o be_v express_v pag._n 57_o in_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o treatise_n he_o do_v distinguish_v three_o ministration_n the_o ministration_n of_o moses_n of_o christ_n and_o of_o the_o spirit_n and_o say_v he_o as_o the_o worshipper_n in_o moses_n ministration_n envy_v those_o that_o worship_v the_o son_n of_o man_n so_o those_o who_o now_o worship_n christ_n at_o a_o distance_n in_o their_o several_a congregation_n and_o form_n and_o be_v most_o zealous_a these_o be_v the_o bitter_a enemy_n to_o the_o ministration_n of_o christ_n in_o the_o spirit_n pag._n 14._o but_o further_a when_o he_o come_v to_o expound_v himself_o concern_v the_o ministration_n of_o the_o spirit_n he_o slight_v all_o outward_a form_n and_o do_v look_v only_o to_o inward_a teach_n now_o i_o will_v speak_v a_o word_n or_o two_o to_o the_o follower_n of_o this_o way_n i_o will_v not_o say_v in_o positive_a term_n that_o they_o be_v lead_v by_o the_o delusion_n of_o satan_n neither_o will_v i_o judge_v of_o their_o final_a estate_n they_o stand_v or_o fall_v to_o their_o own_o master_n yet_o nevertheless_o i_o may_v be_v so_o bold_a see_v they_o have_v so_o often_o in_o their_o mouth_n the_o whore_n of_o babylon_n and_o come_v out_o of_o babylon_n my_o people_n and_o that_o every_o thing_n be_v antichristian_a not_o only_o in_o m●…nistery_n magistracy_n but_o also_o in_o the_o propriety_n of_o good_n to_o desire_v they_o to_o look_v home_o to_o their_o own_o heart_n whether_o they_o be_v not_o most_o antichristian_a themselves_o or_o whether_o that_o spirit_n which_o do_v so_o strong_o deceive_v the_o antichristian_a world_n do_v not_o deceive_v they_o also_o when_o they_o do_v believe_v and_o profess_v such_o thing_n as_o be_v direct_o and_o diametral_o contrary_a to_o scripture_n for_o these_o man_n though_o i_o do_v desire_n to_o speak_v moderate_o of_o they_o yet_o in_o some_o particular_n they_o be_v deliver_v over_o to_o deep_a delusion_n when_o they_o go_v so_o palpable_o against_o the_o write_a word_n and_o pretend_v extraordinary_a revelation_n it_o be_v good_a in_o this_o case_n that_o they_o will_v judge_v themselves_o that_o they_o do_v not_o prove_v in_o the_o event_n the_o great_a promoter_n of_o the_o kingdom_n of_o the_o beast_n i_o be_o persuade_v that_o gregory_n the_o great_a be_v in_o the_o main_a a_o godly_a and_o zealous_a man_n yet_o it_o appear_v by_o his_o dialogue_n that_o he_o do_v run_v into_o foul_a error_n into_o idolatry_n into_o will-worship_n and_o the_o like_a when_o he_o leave_v the_o scripture_n to_o follow_v revelation_n this_o be_v the_o only_a word_n which_o i_o do_v desire_n to_o speak_v to_o they_o second_o here_o be_v also_o a_o word_n of_o admonition_n for_o all_o those_o who_o endeavour_n in_o these_o time_n to_o extinguish_v book-learning_n for_o though_o it_o be_v a_o most_o certain_a truth_n and_o much_o to_o be_v lament_v that_o man_n have_v look_v too_o much_o to_o scholarship_n and_o have_v make_v a_o idol_n of_o it_o for_o they_o have_v not_o regard_v the_o inward_a teach_n of_o the_o spirit_n in_o the_o heart_n nor_o the_o spiritual_a understanding_n of_o the_o mystery_n of_o salvation_n which_o be_v the_o principal_a qualification_n to_o prepare_v and_o fit_a man_n for_o the_o ministry_n these_o thing_n i_o confess_v have_v be_v too_o much_o slight_v and_o the_o slight_n and_o neglect_n of_o they_o have_v be_v a_o great_a cause_n of_o hurt_n to_o the_o church_n of_o god_n and_o damage_n to_o the_o soul_n of_o man_n this_o shall_v never_o be_v deny_v by_o i_o for_o how_o may_v we_o probable_o conceive_v that_o a_o minister_n will_v come_v home_o with_o the_o demonstration_n and_o evidence_n of_o the_o spirit_n so_o powerful_o at_o least_o to_o the_o conscience_n of_o the_o hearer_n when_o he_o himself_o be_v altogether_o a_o stranger_n to_o these_o inward_a work_n how_o can_v he_o so_o effectual_o bring_v home_o the_o lose_a son_n of_o man_n to_o christ_n when_o he_o himself_o never_o have_v a_o true_a feel_n of_o his_o lose_a condition_n they_o must_v needs_o then_o run_v into_o a_o great_a extreme_a who_o dote_v so_o much_o upon_o secular_a learning_n and_o do_v neglect_v the_o chief_a thing_n but_o yet_o on_o the_o other_o side_n they_o go_v as_o far_o out_o of_o the_o way_n who_o will_v have_v this_o kind_n of_o learning_n to_o be_v extinguish_v in_o the_o church_n of_o god_n this_o i_o much_o fear_n may_v be_v one_o mean_v to_o throw_v the_o world_n back_o again_o upon_o vision_n dream_n and_o revelation_n to_o set_v up_o the_o kingdom_n of_o antichrist_n once_o more_o now_o whereas_o it_o be_v allege_v that_o there_o be_v excellent_a preacher_n in_o the_o apostle_n time_n when_o there_o be_v no_o university_n nor_o be_v there_o any_o humane_a learning_n acquire_v by_o study_n though_o this_o shall_v be_v grant_v those_o extraordinary_a revelation_n be_v now_o cease_v therefore_o we_o must_v be_v content_v to_o go_v in_o the_o ordinary_a way_n and_o not_o to_o look_v for_o those_o extraordinary_a distribution_n which_o be_v in_o the_o first_o time_n they_o who_o be_v for_o the_o dissolve_v of_o university_n and_o for_o the_o total_a cashier_n of_o humane_a learning_n let_v they_o stay_v until_o there_o be_v a_o renovation_n and_o a_o return_n of_o these_o extraordinary_a gift_n unto_o the_o church_n some_o be_v of_o opinion_n that_o such_o time_n shall_v come_v if_o that_o be_v true_a let_v they_o be_v patient_a till_o they_o do_v come_v however_o as_o the_o case_n do_v stand_v for_o the_o present_a i_o believe_v they_o who_o take_v away_o humane_a learning_n do_v what_o in_o they_o lie_v to_o reduce_v the_o antichristian_a time_n all_o do_v agree_v that_o in_o these_o time_n the_o church_n be_v in_o a_o eclipse_n or_o great_a darkness_n now_o let_v we_o inquire_v after_o the_o time_n of_o the_o emersion_n how_o the_o church_n come_v out_o and_o the_o time_n of_o the_o immersion_n how_o she_o be_v bring_v into_o this_o darkness_n for_o the_o time_n of_o the_o emersion_n most_o do_v pitch_n upon_o it_o that_o she_o wade_v out_o of_o obscurity_n at_o the_o
