glad and rejoyce to hear and see the truth drawn from the ly which are yee called Priests for you say that you are called and sent of Christ it must be then messengers of his second comming that is to restore the captive Iewes according to the promise and then your declarative must be in the height in the Divine wisdom in the Beauteous Excellency and delectable Oratory and now if your learning will over-reach my wisdom and knowledge though I am unlearned then I will subscribe unto you and write THEAURAU JOHN High-Priest no more But be you sure I will be there and I expect the tryal of your selected choyce that makes me give you warning before to provide Now though I expect a Champion of yours out of all the choyce of your glorious numbers as you tearm them even I expect and look for the select Ey of your whole conclave I desire that he may be free from himself in persecution of others for persecution is of mans self-will which is in deed and in truth the Devil in man now where you see persecution in man that is the very Devil in man nay properer Devel-man man-Devil that is Satan that deceiver that Man slayer that Murtherer who was a Lyar from the beginning Now I will desipher out unto the clear view of all people who are the sons of God and who are the Devils moones or Devils children Asaphel arki that is Devils of strength and might First Gods sons who are restored by Massah or Christ they are children of obedience acting in love unto all even unto the children of darkness or Devils children Not forgetting what they were reduced from before they were made obedient in light and in love they do demonstrate by their loveliness in walking in the beams of Excellency which is the light of love and it is love that giveth darkness or Devils light and sight and doth abstract their dackness into lights own Ey then that that was a Devil or darkness is made light acting in love then them two contraries by light is reconciled unto the unity of one Spirit and then behold all is then very good in all all one unto all the all which is but one All in the all of all things Now you that are in darkness that is Mone children or children of the Devil you alwayes act your Fathers work which was and is persecuting the light which are the children of God Now by your persecuting Any you show you are Devlis and in darkness for persecuting it is from the Devil for God and Christ is love and in love there is no persecution for know affoon as you appear in persecution that man doth declare absolutely that he is possessed with the Devil For know that if ye be in light you love them that are in darkness and in the bands of the Deuil because your selves were in darkness before you were made light by that glorious Spirit of Christ the Lord who hath cast forth your envious Devil and turned you into the light of Life which is the Spirit of the living God Look upon Christs own example I do not bid you look unto his words for ye persecutors are all words but no Foundation or example in the truth as by your persecuting you declare your selves for to be the Devils children and you fetch your coloured Cloak from Christs own words so indeed you are Angels in words but in action you are persecuting Devils Now you Persecutors you dwell in formes and know the form of the thing is not the true thing for the true light it is not in any mans forme or formed or forming but it is Truth in its own root unforming your Independancy your Annabaptisme and your Antinomisme and your Presbyte●anisme and your Judisme and all the rest of these Base Beggerly pached Cloaks of Knavery under which so many Woolfish Devils walk devouring one another and this is Religion which whilst you are devouring one another you must have Christs cloak to cover all your Villany under what kind of devouring soever Now know that all Religion is a ly and a cheat a deceat for there is but one Truth that is Love that devoureth not neither destroyeth any man but lives in its own fire fed with its own heat beholding all Beutious desiring no part but unto all alike alike unto all Love it is Salma Oriam that is it is the adornative beauty of select vertue Now if you be in the Gospel of Light you must see none poor neither in need neither can you be in true Love unless all have an enjoyment as your selves and none want for God is light filling all his Creation with the Beames of his fulness and if his fulness hath so shined upon thee as to write upon thee Digitus Dei then thou walkest in light acting in Love and thy Sealing of light is demonstrated unto all in need in acts of mercy and compassion I had need to speak plain them words the meaning is thou shouldst not have it by thee and let any want if thou doest as the Lord lives thy Religion is all lies the Devil himself reigns in thy heart uncast forth Now your old way of your lying Appol●onian Spirit which is the Father of all your litteral learned Clergical Priests when you are not able to reach or understand the Truth in the Spirit of light then your Abbadonisme of aspersions is cast forth crying that the men are Blasphemors Witches Sorcerers Deceivers aud of the Devil Now hear in this very cry of aspersion if trusy viewed you in your lying colors are clearly desiphered out for know they or that which accuseth it is a Devil a deceived Spirit for if you were in light then you were in Love then no accusation but Love and that acting in mercy for the Reducement of them that are Deceived and in darkness Sabeanus alla Sam ardi peleg ory the English is The sase light accuseth not but it is the Non resident that flieteth crying Segad that word holds the full import Now my Brethren both Jewes and Gentiles since the power of my God did overpower my understanding and manhood wisdom which is

me saying Theaurau John my servant I have chosen thee my Shepherd thou art adorned with the jewel of Exceliency and this saying or voice speaking I heard when I was with God in the High and holy Mount O Beloved this saying is strange in our dayes but it was and is true for it was in Gods own time and he is not confined unto mens writings as in the Bible and Testament but he is that eternal Root that light that life for ever stable and yet he is the cause of all moving Motions for hee is the Center
