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

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
