before him there was no God created neither shall there be after him He is the Lord and besides him there is no Saviour For the Father is the God of our Lord Jesus Christ The Father is greater then all yea greater then he if we know these things happy are we for this is life eternal to know God the Father aright and Jesus Christ whom he hath sent whose being in the Father and the Father in him thought it no robbery to be one with him because the fulness of the Fathers spirit Power presence and Name God is in him and so the Father is glorified in the same Thus he and the Father are one because the Father acteth nothing for the worke of mercy and glory to the Creature but in and by Christ his beloved Son the ordained God of salvation life light and eternall glory the Lord God merciful and gracious the God of Israel For the most high incomprehensible God the Father is said to be the husbandman and the Lord God Christ Jesus the God of salvation is the true fruitful pleasant vine in whom God the Father delighteth and all the elect saints by calling are the branches of this sacred vine the Christ of God the Father For there is none so holy as the Lord neither is there any Rock like our God for God the Father hath blessed him for ever Therefore O Israel or elect fear this Glorious and fearful name The Lord the God Christ Jesus whose glory is great Dignity and Honour hath the Father laid upon him and hath made him most blessed for ever And through the favour of the most high God the Father he shall not be moved for Jehovah is the most high God for evermore Who governeth all things by his mercy Christ through and by whom all addresses must be made to the most high God the Father and by and with whom eternal life in glory is conferred on the creature and ther●fore is he stiled the way the truth and the life the glory of God For he that hath seen Christ the God o● salvation hath seen the personal visible active powerful presence of God the Father and holy Spirit yea the word and work of the Father the first begotten of every creature who hath Power given to him by the Father over all flesh that he should give eternall life in glory to as many as the Father hath given him And thus is he God over all blessed for ever or for eternall being in glory with his Saints the elect in whom or in whose personal visible presence the God-head dwelleth bodily even in him whom the Father sent into the world to save sinners as he himself saith that they may be one as we are even as thou O Father ar● in me and I in thee that they may be one in us as we are for we speak that which we know and testify that we have seen and ye receive not our testimony even the Father and Sons we will come and make our abode with him for man is become like one of us like the Image of God Christ for Christ is the Image of God the Father yea the spirit or Angell of his presence The face of God the Father the image person presence or likeness of the great Invisible God the Father who is the light that none can approch unto whom no man can see who only hath loved the Son as the Son loveth his Saints and hath ordained them to be partakers of his glory according to the predestinate decree of God his Father who created him Christ Wisdom counsell understanding strength L●ve mercy Righteousness yea he God the Father possessed him in the beginning of his way before his works had any being he was brought forth by the Father and was his delight rejoycing alwayes before him He is the Lord God of salvation and besides him there is no Saviour for he is the ordained life and peace to the elect saints that love him But all they that hate him love death Beelzebub Luci●er Sathan darkness the ordnaied God of Damnation called the destroyer but the God of the elect to Glory is the God of salvation even the Lord our righteousness the ordained God of salvation by the Father who hath crowned him with glory and honour and hath so decreed that he the Christ shall sit on his right hand of power until he make his enemies his foot-stool For thus saith God the Father the redeemer of Israel by Jesus Christ and his holy one or of this his holy one Jesus Art thou lighter then that thou shouldest be my servant to raise up the tribes of Jacob or Judah and to restore the dissolutions of Israel to establish the earth for ever that thou mayest be my glorious Instrument of Salvation to the ends of the earth Even to confirm the promises made unto the Fathers for God the Father shall give unto him the throne of his Father David and he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever because God the Father his God hath anoynted or appointed him for that work of mercy and glory to the creature above all other spirits whatsoever yet this sacred servant is not greatet then his Master neither is he the ambassador that is sent by the Father greater then he that sent him and ordained him the l●fe therefore because he is life We the elect shall live also for ever with him in Glory for he shall bruise Sathan shortly under our feet for the Father hath put all things under our feet even all Principalities and powers in heavenly places therefore it is most clear and manifest that he the Father is excepted which ha●h put all things under him And when all things are subdued unto him then shall he himself also be subject unto God the Father that put all things under him and then shall wee know that he is in the Father and we in him and he in us for the Father is as the husbandman Christ is as the vine and the elect are the fruitful branches of that vine therefore let us wait for this his Son from heaven by whom he the Father hath called or Elected us unto his Kingdom of glory But that was not first which is spiritual or eternall but that which is naturall temporall or fading and as is the earth Adam such are they in the Fathers decree all that are earthly as is the heavenly such are they also that are heavenly or eternall and as we have born the image of the earthly or temporal Adam so shall the elect also bear the Image of the heavenly or spirituall Adam Christ which is eternall For as many as the Father hath given or alotted to Christ he hath lost none of them neither can they be lest because they are spirits of light decreed by the Father for glory who changeth not from his

Elders and all the Prophets talked face to face and mouth to mouth as one friend talketh with another even with the Lords anoynted the Lord God of Israel merciful and gracious whose Nature and Property is Mercy and Love by whom the whole family of Heaven and earth is named and to whom all power is given from the Father both in Heaven and Earth who is the Image Face and Presence of the great invisible God the Father and in whom the invisible and incomprehensible God-head dwelleth personally bodily or representatively who of God the Father is made unto us creatures wisdom righteousness sanctification and Redemption Who also is the blessed Potentate the King of Kings and Lord of lords and who only hath immortality dweling in the light the Father which no man can approach unto whom no man hath seen nor can see even the Christ the Power of God the Wisdom of God the beginning of the Creation of God in whom all things were created by the Father the God of all Spirits For to us there is but one God of whom are all things and we in him and one Lord Jesus Christ the God of Israel or Elect by whom are all things made and we by him who is the Lord God former and maker of all things being the express visible likeness or Image Face Presence Hand and active Power of the Invisible God the Father for the work of mercy salvation and glory to the creatur● whose excellency of being is in no manner revealed to the Sons of men other then in and by his comprehensible beloved Son and heir of all things The visible God Christ Jesus The Lord the life and hope of glory of and by whom we shall receive the reward of the inheritance even eternal life For the Father being the author and produce of all Spirits even of light and darkness from himself his glory must needs be far ecxeeding theirs who is pleased in special to delight love and dwell in Emanuel the Anoynted or Ordained God of love and Salvation light and eternall glory by whom he made the worlds and by whom all things were made yea all things were made by him and he is before all things excepting him the Father that hath made him Lord of all things and hath put all things under him to whom all power is given from the Father both in heaven and earth who is the beginning of the workes of God the first begotten of every creature O Lord our God the God of salvation thou hast made al these things the Lord of hosts is his name Behold I the Lord

eternal purpose in Christ Jesus whereby he hath made them heires of glory yea joynt heires with Christ to be glorified together with him Whose spirit beareth witness to our spirits that we are the Children of God the Father and heires with Christ who is the Ordained God and Lord over all blessed for ever He came out of the mouth of the most high God the Father and so is he the word of God For the Creator of all things gave him a Commandment and ordained his tabernacle or personall presence to rest Saying to him let there be a firmament and let thy dwelling be in Jacob and thine inheritance in Israel Yea he came forth as a brook from a river for he the Father created him the beginning and he shall never faile and thus is he established in Zion in the beloved City Jerusalem is his rest and power being the portion of his inheritance Where he the word the life the way the truth the righteo●sness and the l●ght is by the Father decreed to dwell in g●ory with all his saints for ever There is also a word which is called upon with death who is called darknes hell falshood vanity unrighteousness wrath destroyer Sathan wickedness God grant it be not found in the heritage of Jacob the Saviour But this word was found in Jacob or Judah when they renounced the word of life and glory Christ saying we have no King but Caesar and his blood be on us and our Children Then spake he unto them in or by this word of darkness his wrath the divel and vexed them in his sore displeasure for they were given up by God the Father to him the wrath therefore said to be of their Father the divel the destroyer For as God or goodness is set by the Father against evill the divell light against darkness mercy against wrath life against death the Saviour against the destroyer even so is the Godly against the Sinner and the Sinner against the Godly Even so also look upon the works of the most high God the Father and there are ●wo Christ and Belial the accepted and the rejected and their two works are one against the other The ways of Righteousness are plain and easy to the righte●us but his commands are stumbling blocks to the wicked And for the Children of Righteousness are good things created or decreed by the father in the or this sacred beginning Even life eternall in glory but for the sinners or the Children of the disobedient one or evill things created or decreed even eternall being in the land of horrour drought and darkness for ever with their Father the divell for the wrath of God is revealed now but shall then be manifest Called Principalities Powers Hosts Ministers that at the Almighty's pleasure on his works yea powers of darkness Beelzebub that act by fire famine sword and pestilence punishing the wicked to destruction and boasting themselves in mischief and destruction whose nature and property is cruelty and destruction therefore stiled a roaring Lyon the destroyer but not the Saviour Christ whose nature and property is mercy and preservation and therefore is he stiled the preserver of men yea the Oracle or mouth of God the Father Thus you see that all things are double or decreed for a double use one against the other some for the light to abide in glory and some for the darkness Beelzebub to abide for ever in darkness For all that obey or do his will shall reap perdition but they that walk in the light and are Children of the light shall inherit the land or earth of glory and shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace Thou wilt say why doth he then complain for who hath or doth resist his will for can I do any other then I am lead forth unto or made to do But O man who art thou which pleadeth or speaketh against God thy maker for shall the thing formed say unto him that formed it why hast thou made me thus hath not thee Potter power of one lump to make one vessell to honour or for the acting of the spirit of honour and glory Christ Jesus and another to dishonour or for the acting of the spirit of dishonour and reprobation Beelzebub what and if God will to manifest wrath and to make his the sdivels elotted or meated out power known to the Creature uffer the vessels of wrath prepared or decreed to destruction to act the will and works of wrath and that he might also declare the riches and power of his glory for Christ is the glory and power of God unto salvation upon the vessels of his mercy Christ the mercy of God which he hath prepared or decreed unto glory to act the works of mercy here for glory hereafter For if thou be determined for glory and the vessell or body be filled at present with the Spirit of glory truth and righteousness Christ Jesus then shalt thou act and be led forth to the works of glory truth and Righteousness For the meanes shall never be wanting that drives on to the end of the Fathers decree But if thou remaine under the power and guidance of the spirit of darkness then canst thou do none other works then the works of darkness and then thou wilt apprehend the word works and actings of Christ in his vessels of honour called saints to be ridiculous and foolishness for he that is not for Christ is against him But wo unto him that striveth with this his maker Christ Jesus the Lord of life and glory for this maker the Lord our Righteousness is the husband or bridegroome to the Saints and he will marry them unto himself in Righteousness and glory everlasting for he will give unto them salvation in Zion O therefore say not thou it is through the Lord Christ my maker that I perish for he causeth me to err for who dare say unto him what hast thou done or who dare stand against his Judgement to whom all power is given by the Father both in heaven and earth or who dare accuse him for the nations that perish whom he hath made or who dare stand against him to revenge the cause of the wicked that are by him cast off or rejected therefore happy yea thrise happy are all they that are possessed and guided by this sacred spirit wisdom For she was created or produced by the Father before all things she hath built her everlasting foundations with men and is given by the rather to be with their seed in glory for ever For all such as band themselves against Jehovah and against his anointed power for 〈◊〉 are described and known to be disobedient men of this earth or world of darkness guided by the rebellious spirit of wrath darkness and enemies to the obedient spirit of sight life and determined glory to the elect and obedient

place for us and then both he and the father will come and make their abode with us for he is ascended to his father and our father to his God and our God untill his enemies be made his footstool by the father For as the Father hath life in himself so hath he given to the son to have the spirit of life in himself and hath given him Authority to execute Judgement also for the Father judgeth no man but hath committed all judgement to the Son And as he liveth not of or by himself but by the father so do all the elect live by him the Christ and shall live for ever in glory with Christ and addresse all Glory and prayse unto the father by Christ Jesus in that world of glory which shall be without end For none can come to the Son except the father draw him that is as I conceive none but such as are predestinated by him to glory and their names written in the book of life having the fathers work or Spirit of truth and life in them by which they are drawn or alotted to Christ and given to him by the father Even that one God and Father of all who is above all and in all ●or saith Christ the father is greater then all therefore Greater then he who after God the father● likeness Power and Glory is by him created righteousness and trute holiness and being created or made perfect or perfection it self he thus became the author of eternall Salvation and glory to all them that believe and obey him or his will But Belzebub is created Darkness unrighteousness wick●dness evil vanity unholiness destruction or the destroyer hel and perdition and to him are given or allotted the reprobate men of this world of darkness orchildren of perdition and disobedience called vessells of dishonour who are predestinated by the father to dwell in a darke and a drie● land with the destroyer and all his angells or spirits of darkness for ever But the children of the world to come being vessells of honour life light and glory Christ are pr●destinated by the father to dwell in the land of righteousness life light and glory the inheritance and land of glory which the father hath alotted to the Prince of Glory light and life Christ Jesus and so is it called The lot of his inheritance where they shall walk before God the father and shall be led and guided in and by this sacred light of the living which is Christ the Lord who is now in us the hope of this glory to be enjoyed in the land of life or the living in due time where God the Father shall be exalted above the Heavens and his Glory Christ upon all the earth whom he hath made or ordained to be the head of all Principalities and powers in heavenly places even of all spirits of light and spirits of darkness Called of God the Father an high Priest being the ordained righteousness of God unto salvation Who by the Father is created after the power of an endles life and to save them that come to God the Father Therefoe is he stiled The God of salvation to whom belong the Issues from death Being the Ordained Resurrection and the life and the image or visible personall presence of the invisible and incomprehensible God the Father the first Created or born of every creature Who being the beginning hath in all things the preheminence for he is before al things for it pleased the Father that in him should all fulness of Power Maiestie and Glory dwell for all power is given unto him by the Father both in heaven and earth who hath predestinated to reconcile all things unto himself by Jesus Christ for the councell of peace is and shall be for ever between them both even between Father and Son Christ who of God the Father is made unto us Wisdom Righteousness Sanctification and Redemption For Christ hath not thus glorified himself but he the Father that said unto him thou art my Son this day have I begotten or created thee hath glorified him in whom he is well pleased and appointed him for the work of mercy and eternall being to the creature in light and glory and thus is he made by the Father heir apparent of all things in and by whom man is come and admitted to the knowledge of this great incomprehensible God the Father to salvation For the time was that the wotld by this sacred wisdom Christ kn●w not God the Father For in this God of salvation Christ Jesus dwelleth the fulness of the Godhead Father and holy spirit personally or bodily Who is the beginning Prince or head of and over all Principalities and Powers Being the blessed Prince and only ordained King and Lord and Immortality dwelling in the Incomprehensible light of God the Father that none can attain to the knowledge of whom no man did ever see nor can see For him hath God the Father sealed or determined for the work of mercy and glory to the Creature and in him he delighteth in whom the fullness of his power and spirit dwelleth Bodily or in and by whose personall presence the omnipotent power of God the Father and holy spirit of God is represented and manifested unto us in all fullness according to the creatures meted out or alotted Capacity Who is the beginning of the creation of God for in this sacred beginning the anoynted God of salvation God the Father created or decreed the heavens and the earth and by which sacred beginning all things were made into externall visible shape and being And God the Father who commanded the light of glory Christ to shine out or from the darkness B●lzebub hath now shined into our hearts the light even the knowledge of the Glory of God the Father in the face or by the personall visible apprehensive presence of Jesus Christ For this sacred light Christ hath no communion or agreement with darkness Beelzebub neither shall Iniquity Beelzebub possess the just but the wicked are or shall be full of evil or the spirit of Beelzebub And yet all things are of God the Father who hath reconciled us and all the elect of God in Christ unto himself by this sacred light Christ Jesus That we might be made Righteous to God in him according to the measure of the gift of Christ But there is not in every man that knowledge for before him there is no God created neither shall there be after him for he is the Lord the God of mercy and Salvation for God the Father hath given him for a covenant to the people for a light to the Gentiles For to us the elect in Christ there is but one God the Father of whom are all things created and we in him and one Lord Jesus Christ the ordained God of salvation by whom are all things made

into an externall shape and being and we by him even by Jesus Christ the Son of the most high God the Father the Portion of Jacob or of the Elect the former and maker of all things for God the Father decreed the earth to be made by this his sacred power Established the world by this his sacred wisdom and stretched out the heaven by his sacred understanding the Lord of Hostes is his name the God of Israel the God of all flesh who hath made the ●arth the man and beast the portion of Iacob Christ is the former of all things the Lord of hosts is his name Thou art the Lord the God who didest choose Abraham Thou ledst them in the day by a cloud and in the night by a pillar of fire thou camest down upon mount Zion and spakest with them face to face For they saw him the God of Israel and the Lord even the God of Israel spake to Moses face to face as a man speaketh to his friend yea Iacob did see this God of Israel or of the elect face to face who testifieth of himself saying and ye shall know that I am the Lord your God even the God of Israel he is the God of Salvation he hath made us And the world was also made by him the Word of God And unto the God of Christ belong the Issues from death being the ordained resurrection and the life and so is he God over all blessed for ever Being the God of hope even to the elect the hope of glory in eternal life In the true Image of him that created him Christ the power of God the wisdom of God Righteousness and true holiness yea the beauty of Holiness and glorious in holiness Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord and the people whom he hath chosen for his own inheritance for they shall rejoyce for ever in the Lord God of their salvation happy are the people whose God is the Lord for he shall govern the nations upon the earth He shall say to the prisoners and them that are in darkness goe forth and shew your selves For God the Father his God hath anoynted him with the oyle of gladness eternal light life and glory above his sellowe seven above all spirits what ever For God the Father is the head of Christ even as man is the head of woman and hath ordained him to be the Prince of life The beginning the light the day the Person the Presence the face the Angel the Name the truth the goodness the power of God the Father unto Salvation the Prince of peace and love whose nature and property is even to have mercy to forgive and to preserve For he the Lord God is the preserver of Isracl yea the preserver of men The God of Salvation The Christ of God the Father for the worke of mercy and glory But darkness the divel is the Prince of death and destruction the destroyer the hater of man the roaring Lyon the raging power evil wickedness the merciless enemy the unrighteousness the night The wrath of God the star of the morning or the star darkness separated from the morning star or bright star of righteousness light and glory Christ Jesus the anoynted God of salvation whom God the Father hath appointed heir of all things and by whom he made the worlds being the word and voice of God the Father the visible brigh●ness of his Fathers glory and his expresse Image in his person for he that hath seen him hath seen the Father or the Fathers power to salvation for he upholdeth all things by the sacred power Who is made heir of all things and hath obtained a more excellent name then all other spirits what ever for the name of the Father the Lord God Ichovah the God of salvation is in him Who said I will be to him a Father and he to me a Son yea this day have I begotten thee For before the naturall day was in being he was brought forth yea before the earth was formed For according to the Fathers decree The foundations of the earth were lay'd in or by this sacred beginning yea the heavens are the work of his hand For it pleased the Father for whom are all things and of whom are all things in bringing many Sons unto glory to make the Captain or Prince of their salvation Christ perfect glorious in holiness yea the beauty of holiness fearfull in praises doing wonders For he that sancti●ieth and they who are sanctified are all of one for which cause he the Christ is not ashamed to call them brethren for of him and through him and to him are all things For he being the Resurrection and the life in him we live and move and have our being being created by God the Father in Christ Jesus who is the Beginning the day the life the light and glory Therefore are the Children of the light no more in bondage to darkness Hell and death the divel being redeemed by the light Jesus they are all become the Children of the light and Children of the day for God the Father hath not appointed or determined them unto or for wrath the divel but to obtaine or enjoy salvation in glory in and by Jesus Christ where we shall all live together with him who is the Christ of God the Father by whom all things were made to the glory of God the Father according to the eternal purpose of the Father which he purposed in Christ Jesus our Lord that so unto Principalities and powers of darkness in heavenly places might now be known by the Church the manifold wisdom of God the Father Christ of whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named That is the spirits of life in all things named appointed and disposed of to their severall functions and conditions of being by him who after God is created in
