A86445	A discovery of two unclean spirits. Or, Two priests by their fruits made manifest to be out of the way of truth, and out of the life of godliness, in the broad way of destruction, therein working deceitfully the works of errour. A warning unto all scattered people that call themselves Protestants and Christians, yet are out of the faith and life of Christ, in vain traditions, and dead forms, wherein the blind-guids are leading them in the pit. Also a declaration of the light of Christ now appearing in every man, even in the conscience, by which all men are left without excuse. With a plain and true direction into the good way, which from everlasting hath been prepared to lead all that abide therein, out of transgression through death into eternal life. A short discovery of the Lords great fury and heavie indignation that will suddenly break forth upon all the disobedient. Written by one, who loves the seed of God, which is unknown to the world, A.H. in the county of Gloucester.; Discovery of two unclean spirits.	Holder, Anthony.	1657 (1657)	Wing H2383; Thomason E919_5; ESTC R207502	15,288	25

of life you will then mourn over him as one mourneth for his only Son and be in bitterness as one for his first-born into the valley you must all come and there the Lord will plead with you and sorrow and pangs will you then come to seel even as a woman in travel and as you there wait in the light you will find the light arise and the life moving within even in the light by which you will come to see what it was that pierced Christ He that slew the just must by the just be slain that took away the life of the just and so the murderer and man of sin you will come to know that is turned out from God and then the flaming Sword you will come to find which turns every way to keep the way of the tree of Life and as you abide in the light you will see the way of the tree of Life to be the strait and the narrow way in which the unclean cannot walk although you will many times find the unclean will seek to enter unto the tree of Life but shall not be able because of the flaming Sword then the wicked and unclean spirit will seek to arise above the meek principle and will be full of wrath and fury against the way of truth and tree of life and within you there will be murmurings and complainings and disputings and temptations on every side will come and from every thing you set your eyes upon but then take heed and let not your thoughts go forth from the pure light of Christ but in it keep ●ow to the foundation and stand still in the light and receive nothing that stands out of the light above the light so as you abide low in the pure gift of God you will feel the power of God keeping of you in the hour of temptation that you may not be overcome with evil but overcome evil with good and as you abide in the fear of the Lord you will find the flaming Sword bruising in you the Serpents head and here you will come to know the cross of Christ which is the wisdom of God and the power of God that calleth you contrary to the evil motions in the mind that ariseth in wra●h subtuly from the wicked one the corrupt seed but the cross of Christ will appear above and a foolish thing to the wisdome and prudence of the flesh but the wisdom of the flesh must be denied and the cross of Christ must be taken up and as you abide in the light in which the power of God is even the cross of Christ the cross being taken up it will remain above above the wisdom and prudence of the flesh and will bring it down to nought and all the mortal earthly sensual part which is of the world will be under the cross and by the power of Christ will be mortified and crucified as the evil doth arise judgement will pass against it and by the alone power of the Lord it will be condemned and subjected and brought to death and so here you will come truly to read the Law that was added because of transgression until the seed should come and as you abide in the cross the pure principle which was in bondage and captivity under the oppressing nature will come to be raised and redeemed through judgement upon the transgressor that now in you keeps the seed in bondage then the Gospel of the peace and glad tydings of salvation will be then preached to the Elect the seed of God which the world cannot comprehend but as you abide in the light you will come to know the seed wherein is Faith and through faith an entrance will be known into the eternal rest where the new Covenant and Promises of God is received and known where all the Children of the Lord are taught of the Lord and doth know the Lord from the least to the greatest of them and then Christ is known and not till then and then as you abide in the light you will know a joyning unto Christ the head of the body which ought not to be covered and so the image and glory of God you will come to see and worship in the spirit and in the truth with whom you will have peace and acceptance in the presence of God and in the light of God and in his pure presence Christ you will come to know to be your only leader and guide true Prophet and teacher by whom alone you will see the dragon the beast and the false Prophet that maketh war with the Lamb and as you abide in the light you will abide with the Lamb and then you will be hated despised reviled scoffed at and scorned persecuted and killed all the day long as we are now even at thi● day who live godly in Christ Jesus to which that of God in all consciences doth bear witness and friends as you then abide with the Lamb you will know all them that are against the Lamb even all that are out of the light you will see against the Lamb all greedy doers all devouring wolves false prophets deceivers theeves robbers and hirelings that comes nor in by Christ the door of the Sheep-fold and then the true sold you will come to know as you abide in the light you abide in the sold with the true sheep and lambs of Christ you will partake of the living food and bread of Life and then you will know the communion of Saints and the table of the Lord by which you will be strengthened and grow up in Christ the true Vine to partake of the life and power of holiness that thereby you may be living branches to bring forth fruits of Righteousness unto God in due season which only is accepted of the Lord and friends as you come through these things into Christ the living Vine in the Vine abide else you will become withered branches that will bring forth no fruit and then you must be again cut off and cast into the fire and this shall be a warning to them who are in the Vine and until these things be truly witnessed and in measure passed through you are not at all accepted though you hear and read and sing and pray break bread and are baptized with water and give all your goods to the poor and your bodies to be burned you are but as tinckling Brass and as sounding Cymbals while you remain uncircumcised in hearts and ears the Lord hath no pleasure in you neither doth he accept a sacrifice at your hands it is even as if you slew a man unless you be born again you can never enter into the Kingdom of God A Discovery of the Lords great Fury and heavie Indignation that will suddenly break forth upon all the Disobedient NOw therefore be ye not mockers lest your hands be made strong for I have heard from the Lord God of Hosts a consumption determined upon the whole earth This in obedience unto the Lord and in much love to your Souls I have given you warning before it be too late that you may not be consumed with the Adulterous and wicked Generation against whom the wrath of the Lord God doth exceedingly burn and he cannot long hold his hand for his fury is even ready to break forth as fire and the flame thereof will burn up all the wicked and therefore let it not seem to you as an idle tale but remember the dayes of Noah the old World and of Sodome and Gomorrah and Ierusalem which after sufficient warning was by the Lord overthrown Thus I am free of your blood and my Conscience is clear of you in the sight of God whether you hear or forbear Anthony Holder THE END

way for Grace and such like licentious and unwholsom Doctrines as I have heard thee speak seeing Jesus Christ is the way of Grace the high way of Holiness the strait and the narrow way wherein the unclean cannot walk therefore thou who art unclean hast also said that the Gift and Grace of God will not satisfie or Gifts and Graces out of Christ will not satisfie as I have heard thee speak seeing Christ is the Gift and Grace of God and out of him or beside him there is no Grace given to him is the Promise made in him dwells the fulness of the Godhead bodily and of his fulness have all we received Grace for grace which is sufficient by which Salvation comes and satisfaction in due time is made for and in all that hunger and thirst after him therefore thou that saidst The Gift and Grace of God will not satisfie art out of the truth never sent by Jesus Christ who hast preached another Gospel than what Christ himself hath Preached who said to his Disciples Except their Righteousness exceed the Righteousness of the Scribes and Pharisees they should in no wise be saved but thou hast said Though we sin against the Lord and depart from him yet he loveth us and accepteth us in Christ let the mouth of the liar be stopped Doth not sin where it is not killed in the flesh and taken away by Jesus Christ yet separate between God and man in every particular as much as ever it did and is the cursed seed of the Serpent which is the evil doer that is born after the flesh in whom every man is whose image every man doth bear in whom every man is lost and is without help or hope till Christ the true light be received and so thereby his Image who is the image of God in the particular restored through the death of the mortal birth or body of sin I say is that seed and that nature wherein sin lives joyned unto Christ and so presented before God without fault doth God love the liar that must never enter or the fearful and unbelieving and abominable and murderers and whoremongers and sorcerers and idolators which shall have their part in the lake that burneth with fire and brimstone and hath no inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God and knowest thou not that the wicked shall be turned into hell and all nations that forget God Christ hath no communion with Belial that man of sin Christ w●ll destroy and not save and they that know not the body of sin in the particular by the cross slain and putting of they know not Christ put on in whom God is well pleased in him is his love placed and out of him God is not at all pleased and let shame cover thy face who art found a false witness that hath brought another Gospel contrary to the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ by whose light thou art seen and denied and thy spirit judged who through hypocrisie and deceit art glorying singing and boasting of Davids experiences amongst a people before thou or they are come to live Davids life and superstitiously art worshiping the unknown God in the idols Temple whereas the living and true God dwelleth not in Temples made with hands nei●her is worshipped with mens hands but they that worship him doth worship him in spirit and in truth God is worshipped in the truth where the Devil is not the false Prophet the liar and deceiver is not our God is worshipped in the spirit of life in the truth out of the Idols temple out of the Synagogues and Steeple houses which were made with mens hands even the bloudy hands of the Papists and are now the idols of the heathen who deny the light of Christ and therefore know not God but doth worship the Idols and call them Churches unto this day but they are dead images out of the spirit and out of the truth and they that build them and they that repairs them and worship in them are like unto them having ears and hear not eyes and see not and hearts but doth not understand Ah foolish man and unwise thy inscription is to the unknown God if thou hadst an eye to see thou mightst read it how thy worships stands in thy own will and thy own time out of God and his will and for thy own ends dost greatly dishonor the living and true God who is onely known and enjoyed in that truth and not at all known nor enjoyed in the ●doll nor found amongst Idolaters though they cut themselves and cry aloud yet there is no answer let that of God in thy conscience witness even the light of Christ which light doth condemne thee for taking of tythes and selling of tythes seeing that Christ hath changed the Priesthood and also changed the Law and is come the Mediator of a better Covenant even Christ the second Priest not made by the Law of a carnal Commandment but by the oath of God after the power of an endless life he is the resurrection and the life in which the second Priesthood stands which live of the Gospel which is the power of God the power of an endless life if thou hast an care to hear thou mayst hear I say the power of God which hath abolished the first Priesthood which could not continue by reason of death even Levi to whom tythes was paid a figure serving for the time then of Christ the second Priest which according to the flesh came of the Tribe of Judah which by the Law never received tythes of the tribe of Judah there is nothing spoken of Priesthood neither of tythes Now thou and all you Priests that by a carnal Commandment doth take tythes are not in the power of an endlesse life which is the power of the Gospel the second Priesthood the wisdom of God and power of God a Cross to the first Priesthood to tythes sacrifices and offerings and all things in the changeable in that that cannot continue by reason of death is all that that is out of the power of an endless life but now the first Priesthood that takes tythes and all that run for filthy lucre and preach for hire and divine for money are out of the power of an endless life all false teachers liars and deceivers that run before they are sent that use their tongues and saith the Lord saith when the Lord never spake to them are in the lusts of covetousness which is idolatry and are out of the power of an endless life therefore own shame upon thy head who takes tythes glebe-lands and such like gain thou seekest from thy quarters for telling of dreams false visions and lying divinations of thy own brain not according to the Oracles of God therefore thou couldst not say when in thy Steeple-house before thy Congregation I asked thee Whether thou didst own Jesus Christ to be thy only teacher guide and leader I say thou couldst not say he was but
