Again the false Prophets are such as makes merchandise of the word through seigned words and covetousuess and speaks great swelling words through the lusts of the flesh promising liberty are themselves servants of corruptions for of whom a man is overcome he is in bondage and here is Marks and Fruits of the false Prophets and they are such as sport themselves in the day time with wantonness th●orgh the lusts of the flesh live delitiously delighting themselves and feasting with you in their deceivings hearts exercised with covetousness beguiling the souls that are not established as natural bruit beasts to be destroyed perish in their own corruptions by reason of whom the way of truth is evil spoken of and many follow their pernicious wayes Here is the Marks and Fruits of the false Prophets and such as deny the Lord Jesus that bought them and bring upon themselves swift damnation there is the end of the false Prophets 2 Pet. 2. And they are such as are giving private interpretations of the Scriptures which came not by the wil of man neither is it of any private interpretation and here is another Mark which comes from the private interpretations which fils the world so ful of opinions so as Iohn saith every Spirit is not to be believed but they are to be tryed that spirit that confesseth not that Jesus is come in the flesh is not of God but is Antichrist of whom ye have heard should come but now already is come into the world look to your selves whosoever transgresseth and abideth not in the Doctrine of Christ hath not God he that continueth in the Doctrine of Christ he hath both the father and the son and if there come any among you and bring not this Doctrine receive him not into your houses norbid him God speed lest ye be partakers of his evil deeds as you may read in the Epostles of Iohn and he that hath the form of godliness and not the power from such turn away And here you may see more of the Marks and Fruits of the false Prophets and Deceivers and they are such as turn the grace of God into wantonness denying God the only Lord and our Lord Jesus Christ though they have the form of godliness but denyes the power and as raging waves of the Sea murmurers and complainers walking after their own lusts whose mouths speak proud things having mens persons in admiration because of advantage following the way of Cain and of Balaams wages who perished in the gainsaying of Core and mockers which should come in the last times which should walk after their ungodly lusts having not the spirit but having mens persons in admiration which is out of the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ And here is more of the marks and fruits of the false Teachers as you may read in Iude Iames 2 and are in the wisdome which is below where is envy and strife sedition and all manner of evil works and here is the fruits of their wisdome so the wise man which is endued with knowledge and the wisdome of the Lord Jesus the true Prophet sees and savours the fruits and marks of the false Prophets and super fluity and filthiness and maliciousness these are the Fruits of them that deceives their own souls that are speakers of the Scriptures and doth not live in the life Iames 1 Isay declared the fruits of the false Shepheards and the marks he said they seeke for their gain from their quarter and they was greedy Dogs and many other Marks he gives them and the Apostle bids Mark them that walk not according to the Doctrine of Christ And Isajah saith they are greedy and can never have enough and here is the Marks and Fruits of the false Shepheards Isa 56. shews how they may be known And Again Ieremiah doth shew the Marks of the False Prophets how they speak a vision of their own heart and not from the mouth of the Lord and how they do not stand in the Lords counsel but they are such as used their tongues but the Lord sent them not and such as run but the Lord hath not spoken to them and such as by their lyes and their lightness counsel the people to erre and such steals the word from their Neighbor And against
comes from Jesus Christ that they are made Ministers by the wil of man and Christ Jesus sent them not but their Mothers as they call them and they told us the Letter it was the Light when the Letter saith Christ is the Light here we do charge them both they and their Mothers to be lyars and to be adulterate from the Light and knows nothing but the outside so with the Light they all lyars are to be condemned for the Lake as it s written the lyars must have their portion in the Lake that burns and they and their Mothers have filled this Nation ful of their lyes but with the Light which comes from Jesus Christ which never changes they are comprehended with it and condemned to the Lake of Lyars and they told us the Sons and Children that came from their Mothers that the Bible it was the Word and the Bible saith that in the beginning was the word and the word was God And here again with the Light which comes from this word which word endures for ever which was before paper and ink was and the Scriptures was given forth and here again we do charge both the Mothers and their Sons to be lyars and no Ministers of the word for they which was Ministers of the word and eye witnesses took in hand to set forth a Declaration in order so it is a Declaration which the Ministers of the word set forth which word was in the beginning by which all things was made and upheld by the word and power the word became flesh and dwelt amongst us and here thou that hast sit as Queen and seen no sorrow and had many children thy desolation is comming and come and the loss of thy children thy skirts are seen and thy nakedness appears and thy lewdness and whoredomes and witchcraft and lyes doth appear to all the children of the Light who are in the Light that comprehends all the world and reaches over it And the Children which are come from their mothers taught us and told us that Hebrew Greek and Latine was the Originall and is the Originall and such learned men must open the Scriptures and with the Light which is eternall which is come from the Son of God with it we do see that before Babell was all the earth was of one Language and then Nimrod the cunning hunter before the Lord which came out of Ham's Stock the Father of Canaan who was cursed he was the beginner of the building of Babell whom God confounded into many Languages and we do see that Pilate which crucified Christ had this Originall Hebrew Greek and Latine and set it over Christ so here with the light we see them Babylon building up and throwing down with their many Languages which is confusion and their Mother the Mother of Harlots which teacheth them many languages which is trimmed and deceives the Nations but with the Light which commeth from Jesus Christ she and her Sons are comprehended and they can go no further then Babel which are Babylon for with the Light you are seen comprehended and judged with the word which was before any language was by which all things was made as is said before and here you are hammered who are in many languages with the word which was as a hammer to beat you in pieces and with the word you are to be cut and divided assunder for the word is as a two-edged sword the word is as a fire to burn you up who be in the many Languages and to you all is the word of the Lord which doth endure for ever and who are redeemed are redeemed forth of the many languages and is come before Babel was And the Children which come from their Mother told us that sprinkling Infants was the Baptism and the Steeplehouse was the Church of a Sacrament which there is no such Scripture and so here again with the Light which Christ Jesus hath enlightned us withall we see they taught us more lyes and so with the Light they are to be condemned as I said unto you before for the light that gave forth the Scriptures saith the Church is in God and with the Spirit they was all baptised into one body and was made all to drink in one spirit with the Light we do see and witness this praised be God which hath seperated us from this lying Generation which holds up these Mothers and their Sons which be Teachers of Lyes And they did tel us these Children that comes from their Mothers that they were the ministers of God and his Prophets and his messengers now with the Light which comes from Christ Jesus we do them all see to be such as be out of the truth and such as the Lord sent M●cah to cry against that are hirelings they that doth not put into their mouths they prepare war against them they that doth to them they preach peace and boast and say is not the Lord amongst them none evil can come to them who see the evil and transgression with the light which comes from Christ comprehended they are with the Light the Prophet that saw Christ witnessed against such with the same Light which Light we witness made manifest which never changes with which light all deceits and deceivers are comprehended and with the Light we do see them that come from their mothers to be such as seeks for their gain from their quarter as beareth rule by their means as seeketh for the fleece which the Lord sent his Prophets to cry against which was in the Light vvhich vvith the Light they savv Christ vvhich Christ hath enlightned us with with which Light we see the same as the Prophets did which was witnesses of Christ with the Light and so here we do see them to be deceivers that goes into the world who useth their tongues and saith the Lord saith when he never spoke to them and speaks a divination of their own brain and follow their own Spirits which are the dreamers with the Light they are seen which never changes and with it which is eternall all comprehended and to you this is the eternal word of God and these Sons that come from their Mothers told us they was Christs Embassador with the Light which comes from Christ which Christ hath enlightned us withall we do see them to be holding up the figures in the first Covenant and their Mothers to be lyars and they no Embassadors of Christ which takes tythes of the people and if they will not give it them who witnesses the unchangeable P●iest Christ Iesus and deny the changeable they sue them at the Law and cause them to be hailed before magistrates Courts Sessions put them in prisons because they wil not pay them tythes here you are declared to the whole nation to be lyars and no Embassadors of Iesus Christ for whom he sent forth he sent forth freely and denyed all oppression here with the Scripture it self you are judged to be
