But these Heathen who brag of Christianity and yet most obstinately and presumptuously will be counted the Only people of God are in their hearts and consciences so possessed and blinded by the Prince of this World viz the spirit of Eternall darknesse that they are altogether unmindfull and carelesse of the Eternall Infinite and Invisible God nay they wil not so much as acknowledge Him amongst them in the vaine and cursed Doctrine of those false Teachers whom they have chosen to themselves nor according to the power and truth of his Living Word in regard of these present workes and deeds Seeing that God in his Word long since faithfully enough hath given warning carefully to take heed and to beware of the false Prophets viz. of those horrible ravening Wolves in sheeps clothing who with their contentious pratings and disputing are the very prime and principall cause of all division distraction concision confusion and seduction Esa 3. and 10. chap. Ezech. 13. God speakes in his Word that the true believers being Members of his Body ought to be compacted built and rooted together through the Bond of Peace and the Love of God But the Divell through the mouth of the false Prophets in the stone-Churches and Chappels or carnall Congregations saith Heere is Christ there is Christ Heer is the Temple of the Lord heere is the Temple of the Lord Come hither and heare us and let your sinnes bee forgiven you c. and all this to that people which hath lost and forsaken Christ the Head of the Church and Saviour of his Body according to his Eternall Divine and Undivisible Power and Vertue Now although God richly and abundantly hath warned the Heathen as well as the Jewish Nation not to be haughty proud in their unbeliefe yet notwithstanding they being in and through all Cities and Countreyes yea through all Realmes as Germany Denmark Sweden Holland and other places divided one from another Acts 4.

Zeph 3 in the very abisse or depth of their soules or having no spirituall communion of God any more amongst them they I ●ay dreame and imagine to have a way to the Father into the everlasting Kingdome of God without Christ the unity in the Spirit or foundation of Faith by the damned arch-witchcraft of their false Teachers Priests and Prophets being never either sent or knowne of God as if they with those false Apostles by which Satan the very Divell transformeth himselfe into an Angel of light had the truth and God should be their liar who long since hath foretold the state and condition of this present last and lamentable time viz. that Faith should be extinguished love by many grow cold and unrighteousnesse get the upper hand But seeing that these people wholly neglect and despise the Lord of Sabbath concerning the reall and fundamentall alteration and removing of this present distresse misery and great calamity for his seeds sake and moreover that they for to maintaine the Idolatry and Sorcery of their false worship and religion wherein is neither faithfulnesse nor love neither Faith nor Righteousnesse like the Jewes in former times especially about the end of the old Testament have begunne and still doe beginne one murthering robbing and bloodsheding course and enterprise after and above another not forbearing thus to bring many thousands of souls to the slaughter it shall must so be paied home to these heathens possessed of the Divell who never would obey nor hearken but with all their strength still doe endeavour to annihilate and frustrate the counsell of the Lord even so I say as they have deserved it both of God himselfe and also of those poore people who thereby are ruined made desolate and destroyed Psal 2. and 12. Thus the Heathen viz. the people of the second and new Testament who by breaking the bond of the love of God are divided asunder and in Christ the light of Faith blinded are from the face and presence of Jesus Christ in these their darke and obscure hearts called upon by Michael the Prince of warres by whom the Lord God for to maintaine the honour of his word and holy name and for the fundamentall deliverance of poore Mankinde shall arise and make himselfe manifest and knowne Hos 3.
