of_o other_o do_v i_o write_v these_o thing_n and_o indeed_o i_o have_v somewhat_o in_o my_o heart_n to_o say_v single_o and_o naked_o concern_v each_o of_o these_o which_o the_o lord_n guide_v and_o bless_v to_o the_o condition_n of_o those_o who_o stand_v in_o need_n thereof_o first_o concern_v those_o prejudices_fw-la which_o the_o enemy_n be_v apt_a to_o lay_v before_o the_o mind_n of_o friend_n concern_v those_o who_o the_o lord_n have_v choose_v to_o minister_v to_o they_o in_o the_o power_n of_o his_o truth_n i_o shall_v say_v this_o look_v over_o the_o former_a dispensation_n of_o god_n there_o be_v false_a prophet_n under_o the_o law_n and_o false_a apostle_n and_o minister_n in_o the_o time_n of_o that_o dispensation_n of_o the_o gospel_n who_o do_v strive_v and_o labour_v hard_a to_o disturb_v undermine_v and_o overturn_v the_o building_n and_o work_n of_o god_n in_o the_o spirit_n of_o his_o people_n then_o but_o do_v god_n suffer_v the_o true_a prophet_n under_o the_o law_n or_o his_o true_a apostle_n to_o fall_v and_o lose_v their_o ministry_n and_o be_v not_o this_o present_a dispensation_n pure_a and_o live_a and_o able_a to_o preserve_v both_o the_o instructer_n and_o instruct_v in_o the_o lord_n it_o be_v natural_a to_o the_o enemy_n to_o suggest_v such_o a_o thing_n but_o let_v all_o that_o fear_v the_o lord_n and_o love_n his_o truth_n take_v heed_n how_o they_o entertain_v such_o a_o suggestion_n beside_o he_o that_o have_v feel_v the_o pure_a power_n in_o his_o heart_n and_o wait_v to_o be_v carry_v through_o the_o work_n of_o it_o and_o have_v be_v carry_v through_o and_o bring_v into_o the_o dominion_n and_o set_v as_o a_o pillar_n in_o the_o temple_n of_o the_o lord_n it_o be_v not_o easy_a if_o possible_a for_o he_o to_o fall_v the_o lord_n have_v undertake_v for_o he_o that_o he_o shall_v go_v no_o more_o forth_o as_o rev._n 3._o 12._o but_o let_v i_o say_v this_o to_o thou_o o_o soul_n who_o ever_o have_v entertain_v this_o prejudice_n thou_o through_o prejudices_fw-la and_o suggestion_n judge_v they_o fall_v but_o do_v not_o they_o in_o the_o true_a eternal_a light_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o life_n

as_o thou_o be_v gather_v into_o the_o seed_n and_o the_o seed_n open_v in_o thou_o beside_o be_v there_o not_o many_o that_o have_v witness_v and_o that_o can_v witness_v from_o god_n that_o this_o be_v the_o dispensation_n which_o be_v to_o go_v through_o the_o whole_a earth_n and_o shall_v it_o be_v lay_v aside_o in_o the_o begin_n of_o its_o work_n if_o there_o have_v be_v a_o law_n give_v which_o can_v have_v give_v life_n say_v the_o apostle_n righteousness_n shall_v have_v be_v by_o the_o law_n god_n do_v not_o change_v when_o he_o have_v bring_v forth_o that_o which_o will_v do_v the_o thing_n why_o shall_v he_o change_v it_o now_o of_o the_o ability_n of_o this_o there_o be_v many_o witness_n yea_o it_o have_v bring_v forth_o life_n and_o righteousness_n in_o those_o that_o have_v be_v subject_a to_o it_o and_o be_v once_o own_v as_o the_o desire_n of_o our_o soul_n and_o become_v a_o cover_n to_o our_o eye_n that_o we_o can_v look_v no_o further_o our_o heart_n in_o

any_o of_o we_o under_o what_o pretence_n or_o appearance_n soever_o let_v it_o be_v the_o abomination_n of_o our_o soul_n that_o we_o harken_v not_o nor_o give_v the_o least_o entertainment_n to_o it_o lest_o by_o it_o we_o be_v betray_v of_o our_o portion_n in_o the_o bless_a treasure_n and_o inheritance_n to_o the_o three_o i_o say_v it_o be_v a_o stand_a truth_n the_o standard_n we_o be_v invite_v to_o and_o to_o which_o we_o be_v to_o keep_v for_o ever_o even_o the_o measure_n of_o life_n in_o our_o own_o vessel_n this_o will_v justify_v we_o in_o our_o subjection_n to_o whatever_o it_o reveal_v and_o its_o justification_n will_v stand_v whatsoever_o any_o man_n else_o shall_v say_v to_o the_o contrary_n but_o this_o be_v at_o unity_n in_o itself_o and_o never_o oppose_v the_o motion_n or_o appearance_n of_o life_n in_o another_o now_o this_o be_v certain_a the_o enemy_n will_v appear_v as_o near_a life_n and_o its_o motion_n as_o he_o can_v and_o if_o i_o receive_v his_o

thou_o contradict_v a_o practice_n or_o appearance_n of_o life_n in_o other_o who_o be_v in_o the_o truth_n before_o thou_o and_o be_v in_o the_o growth_n thereof_o far_o beyond_o thou_o ought_v thou_o not_o to_o be_v sober_a in_o spirit_n and_o to_o wait_v in_o fear_n lest_o thou_o shall_v be_v deceive_v lest_o thou_o shall_v exalt_v self_n and_o the_o enemy_n in_o thou_o and_o not_o the_o

watch_v over_o thou_o and_o counsel_n to_o thou_o and_o of_o god_n preservation_n for_o out_o of_o the_o truth_n in_o the_o deceitful_a appearance_n there_o be_v no_o preservation_n nor_o true_a

itself_o as_o if_o it_o be_v the_o right_a thing_n the_o lord_n give_v the_o measure_n of_o life_n to_o thou_o and_o the_o lord_n also_o have_v give_v father_n guide_n instructer_n watchman_n in_o his_o israel_n these_o have_v a_o service_n from_o the_o lord_n towards_o thou_o who_o know_v that_o thy_o soul_n have_v need_n of_o that_o service_n now_o if_o the_o enemy_n can_v prejudice_v thou_o against_o and_o withdraw_v thou_o from_o the_o use_n of_o what_o thou_o need_v be_v thou_o not_o in_o danger_n of_o fall_v and_o miscarriage_n do_v not_o thou_o set_v up_o the_o measure_n of_o life_n in_o thou_o if_o not_o another_o thing_n beyond_o its_o place_n state_n and_o growth_n and_o can_v any_o thing_n grow_v and_o thrive_v out_o of_o the_o order_n and_o wisdom_n of_o god_n nay_o nay_o the_o very_a measure_n of_o life_n itself_o will_v this_o way_n come_v to_o wither_v and_o die_v in_o thou_o and_o another_o thing_n live_v in_o its_o place_n and_o the_o sword_n of_o the_o lord_n will_v be_v draw_v against_o thou_o and_o thou_o will_v be_v cut_v off_o from_o the_o body_n and_o also_o from_o he_o who_o be_v the_o quickener_n and_o preserver_n of_o the_o body_n therefore_o my_o friend_n as_o the_o enemy_n watch_v to_o deceive_v and_o destroy_v so_o the_o lord_n keep_v our_o soul_n in_o the_o true_a watch_n and_o look_v up_o to_o he_o who_o to_o those_o that_o fear_v he_o
