This is Lights appearance in the Truth to all the precious dear Lambs of the Life Dark vanished Light shines forth Set forth by Sarah Iones DEar Lambs whom the Father hath visited with his eternal love this is the Message of the Lord unto you from that word which shall endure for ever that ye sink down into that eternal word and rest there and not in any manifestations that proceeds from the word for it is the word of the Lord once more mentioned that shall endure for ever and those that are gathered into it and so dear babes this is the testimonie of the Fathers love that ye may not rest short of himself through one who the Lord God hath brought and is a bringing to the loss of all things that I may be found in him which eternal word was before manifestations were and this is the word that the builder refuses which is become the head of the corner Dear babes read and tell me within for those that build upon the manifestations and not upon that that manifests sets up an Idol in the heart which the Lord God will shortly throw down Dear babes not that the manifestation from the Spirit of truth is denyed for whatsoever is manifested or revealed to the Creature it is to lead it to the substance and so that soul and spirit that sinks down into it it works and levens into its own creature and it will work out the nature which is contrary to divine nature what proceeds from it is holy and pure so let not your eyes nor minds be gathered into the manifestations but sink down into that measure of life that ye have received and go not out with your in-looking at what is contrary in you for if you do you will miss of the power that should destroy it for as ye keep in that which is pure which is the eternal word of the Lord which is nigh in your hearts it will work and opperate so that it will overcome what is contrary And so you dear babes that are little and weak in your own eyes to you is this message sent look not at your own weakness but look at him who is calling you in his eternal love who will make the weak strong and will pull down the mighty from their seat Ah my soul canst not thou say so by experience yes surely and so dear babes reason not with flesh and blood nor with the voice of the Serpent for if you do you will darken the council of God in your selves but in the power of the Lord shut him out for it makes in hir a state of inoncence had Eve done so she had not been overcome for this is meant towards ye whom the Lord by his righteous Judgments hath made roome for a measure of his But this is the council of the Lord to such as have been so overcome while the trouble and conflicts are upon their spirits through the cause before mentioned stand still and see the salvation of God which is in the light of his Covenant which will stretch forth the hand of his power as he did to Peter when he feared the proud waves would have prevailed over him for I can testifie as I have received in the eternal council of the Lord which lyes as a heavy weight upon my spirit to be discharged That except the Creature sink down into that that manifest and revealed and so be wrought into it natures and so all things of Gods power and authority ye else shall fall short of that price which that soul may attain to which daily sinks down into it not as though I my self have altogether attained to that degree of perfection but this I can say in the fear and truth of the Lord that I am one that presseth hard after it and it is the desire of my soul that others may joyn hands with me in this work in that measure of life that the Father hath bestowed in us So cease thy mourning thou weeping babe that mourns in secret for manifestations from thy beloved as thou hast had in dayes past for I can testifie unto thee by experience whosoever thou art in that state that he is bringing thee nearer him for that was but milk which he fed thee with whilst thou was weak but he will feed thee with the Word from whence that milk proceedeth if thou be willing and obedient to live at home with Jacob which is daily to retire thy mind though the gadding hunting Esau persecutes thee for it thou shalt receive the blessing in which all happiness and felicity doth consist for evermore For as Esau went to hunt abroad when the blessing was to be received at home so I testifie unto thee from the Lord whomsoever thou art that art convinced that the Word is in thy heart and yet goes a gadding and hunting after the manifestation that proceeds from the word in others vessels I tell thee in Gods eternal truth whomsoever thou art that thou maist receive them in a wrong ground and that nature that is contrary to the Word of the Kingdome may be alive in thee and thou in it in which thou canst not enter the Kingdome Therefore come down come down to the Word of his patience which is nigh in your hearts which if you do he will keep you in the hour of temptation which shall come to try all upon what foundation they are built for saith Christ which is the word of God My sheep hear my voice and they follow me and I the Word will give them eternal life and none can pull them out of his hand which is that living Word from whence this testimony of mine proceedeth Oh how my bowels yernes in that living Word yea that ye may not fall short but be crowned with Immortality and glory for oh the glorious day of the Lord God hasteth to be revealed to those that are kept faithful in his Word Given forth by one whose heart the Lord hath enlarged in his own life towards ye that I can speak it in the integrity of my soul that if I could breath forth the measure of life that I have received to do the least babes good I should freely do it who am called by the name of S.
