we are all baptized into the one body and made partakers of the one bread which came down from heaven by the which we are fed and nourished led and guided into all truth In the sence of which Mercy and in the fellowship of this great Mistery which is hid in Christ from all that are high and proud and wise in their own conceit and envious and slight the Grace of God Who resisteth the proud but gives more Grace to the humble I say In the fellowship of this ever blessed and truly worthy for ever to be loved and obeyed Truth and Grace of God which ha●h done this blessed work for us and hath made known this Mistery of Life in us the Salutation of my Life in the unsp●akable Love and Me●cy of our God is unto you all Dear Brethren and Friends whom the Lord hath made pertakers with me and I with you of this pr●tious Faith even the Faith which was of old delivered unto the Saints which give us victory over the World and by wh●ch we receive power to deny our selves and to do the will of our God by which we feel a hope begotten in us which is as an Anchor most sure and stedfast in our hearts and souls That nothing that is present nor nothing that is yet to come shall ever be able to separate us from the love of our God Nor decline our minds nor pervert our hearts from following the Lord and obeying his blessed Truth and holy Spirit which hath effected this good work in our hearts and hath done us thus much good which our tongues are not able to set forth so fully as our Souls pertake and injoy of the benefit in the salvation of our Souls from death who hath by the Arm of His blessed Power revealed in and unto us preserved our feet from falling and our hearts from fainting and hath delivered our eyes from tears And now hath given us beauty for ashes and the Spirit of joy and gladness for the Spirit of heaviness So that the heart that hath been purged through the execution of the Lords Righteous Judgments now rejoyces in the enjoyment of his Mercies But this is not every ones state nor condition who are convinced of Gods blessed Truth and who are turned to the Light and Word of faith within for it s now with us as it was with them that the Apostle writ to who were in several states and conditions there were some that were strong men of full age whose sences were thorowly exercised in the word of God and Doctrine of the Apostles and these were such that the Apostle said Had obeyed from the heart their Doctrine which they preached by the which they were saved made free from sin and become servants to God their fruit unto holyness and their end everlasting peace These were acquianted with the misterys of Life and Godliness and he said to them The bread which we break is the communion of the body of Christ and the cup which we drink is the communion of the blood of Christ for although they were many members yet but one body of which Jesus Christ was the head who had true experience of the work of the Lord. And to some they spake and writ which were young in the faith and had but little experience in the knowledg of the work of the Lords blessed Truth unto which they were turned and in the which they had believed and by the which he told them they should be saved if they continued to the end in faith and obedience Also the Apostle wrote and spoke to such as had the knowledge of the Truth but did not continue in faithful obedience thereunto to the end of their race that so they might thereby receive the Crowne of Life who yet aboad in the form but had lost the virtue of the Life and power which once they felt and injoyed and which all do injoy which continue faithful unto the Lord whose virtue and power keeps them alwayes fresh and green and living to God And now dear Friends there is something in my heart as one that hath obtained mercy of the Lord and according to the experience which God hath given unto me of his Love and Mercy and as I feel the Lord requires of me for the easing of my heart and clearing of my conscience unto you that have believed in the Truth And first unto you whose hearts are tender of Gods glory and that desire to have your Portion with the Sanctified in Christ Jesus all keep low and wait in Gods holy fear for the fear of the Lord will keep your hearts tender of his glory for unto them that fears the Lord he revealeth his secrets And all keep to the pure holy Light of Jesus Christ unto the which you have been turned by the Mess●ngers and Ministers of Jesus Christ whom God hath sent in his name and power now as he did in dayes past to turn People from Darkness to Light and all that were faithful in walking in it came to be redeemed from Sathans power and knew then and do now the power of God which saves the Soul Therefore Dear Friends be watchful in the Light of Jesus that shines in your hearts that you may all be led by it in the way which leads unto Peace He is given for a Leader and whosoever is led and guided by him that is come a Light into the world and now shines in thy heart He leads to Peace and gathers into Rest For this is the path which the Just walked in who travelled to God in all Ages which the wicked and ungodly hates the path of the Just is a shining Light which shines unto the perfect day And all you that are entred into this path be faithful to God and dilligent to walk in it and bring your deeds unto it that you may be found in well doing for them are they that shall and do come to injoy Immortallity and Eternal Life by Jesus Christ who continue in well doing And Christ sayes He that does well cometh to the Light and bringeth his deeds unto it And the Apostle said to them he wrote to in his day That they had this sure word of Prophecy whereunto they did well to take heed as unto a Light that shines in a dark place This also is my Testimony with many Brethren that all that ever come to have Life everlasting must walk in it love it and obey the teachings of it And therefore do I commit you all unto it that have recieved the knowledge of it as unto that which is able and on that which the Lord has laid help that is mighty to save to the utmost all that bowes to the apearance of it And therefore let your eyes be towards it to wait upon God in it even for the Grace that is to be brought in the Revelation of Jesus Christ for as thou waitest honestly in the Light it will let thee see how it is with thee
