hast done and thy reward is wrath and condemnation which will pass upon thee from the presence of the Lamb for thy disobedience and breaking of the righteous Law which must be fulfilled and what way soever thou turnest to get life in outward formes and observations the flaming sword which is the righteous Law that goes out of the mouth of the Lamb it will turn every way and meet thee and cut thee down and cast thee into hell where there is weeping and wailing for want of the presence of God and thou canst doe nothing to pacifie the wrath of God which is gone out against thee Now wouldst thou hide thy self as Adam did when he appeares in thy heart thy fig-leafed garment of prayers tears forms outward observations according unto thy comprehensions of the letter will not cover thy nakedness it served to cover thy nakedness from the sight of men but now when the Lord appears in thy heart thou canst not stand before him now comes Cain in thee to be driven from the face of God to be a fugitive and a vagabond in the earth notwithstanding all his sacrifice and Esau in thee reprobated never to have the blessing though he seek it with teares and the bond-woman and her son cast out and the first Adam now slain with the sharp sword that goeth out of the mouth of the Lamb and art made to give up thy soul to God whose it is to doe with thee what he will if he destroy thee for ever he may and if he save thee from eternall death it is his free love now art thou baptized with Christ into his sufferings and death where thou liest sealed down under the eternal judgement of God and there perishest for ever for any power or help thou hast in thy self and this is the administration of Moses where thou lyest condemned for ever under the righteous Law without any help or hope untill the administration of the Prophets that prophesie of a Christ that hath satisfied the righteous Law of God for thee who art lost and condemned under the power of the Law of Moses and now there is a secret hope raised up in thy soul and thou lookest up from under the condemning power of Moses for a Saviour and the Prophets are until John and of all that were born of woman there was not one greater than John for he is a burning and a shining light that lets thee see the filthiness of thy heart and the Law shines in its purity to condemn the earthly man in thee but he strengthens the hope in thee that was raised up by the Prophets to see the beauty and excellency of Iesus Christ which ravishes thy lost condemned soul that thou art willing to sell all for him the Scripture being now fulfilled in thee who witnesses this from the daies of John even until now the Kingdom of God suffers violence and the violent take it by force now is every mountain and hill layd low in thee and crooked wayes made strait and the rough way in thee made smooth and thou wait in the wi●…derness and lost condition of thy self for the salvation of God to be manifest to the in Iesus Christ and in the appointed time of the Father the Son of man comes to thy soul as a Thief in the night as the lightning from the East to the West so is his appearance in thee and causes thy dead soul to hear his voice which witnesses to it eternal life freely through his own blood and thy soul heares his voice and by the word of his power is made to live and are sealed up by the holy spirit of promise the Spirit of God bearing witness with thy spirit that thou art his child now comest thou to witness the second Adam to be a quickning spirit and Isaac the promised seed to be heir for ever and that the wages of sin is death but the gift of God is eternal life and that by grace tho●… ar●… saved through Faith in the Lord Jesus not of works lest any should boast and he that hath hope in him purifies himself as he is pure and the love of Christ constrains thee now who can witnes this work of Regeneration manifest in thee to follow him whither soever he goes no more to obey him for life as thou didst when thou wast without seeking him in forms and observations but now the love and life thou enjoyest in Christ Jesus constrains thee to deny thy self and take up thy Cross daily and follow him Now art thou come into the beginning to live in the Lord guided by the powerfull word of faith the light that shines in thy heart which is the light of the City New Jerusalem to whom thou art come to worship the Father in Spirit and Truth and all that are come to walk in the light of the City New Jerusalem are the true Israel of God that are taught of God to whom the New and everlasting Covenant is made according to the promise of the Lord This is the Covenant I will make with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah after those daies saith the Lord I will put my Law in their inward parts and write it in their hearts and I will be to them a God and they shall be to me a people and they shall teach no more every man his Neighbour and every man his Brother saying know the Lord for they shall all know me from the least of them to the greatest of them I will be mercifull unto their unrighteousness and their sinnes and their iniquities will I remember no more and in this City
