A Woman forbidden to speak in the CHURCH The Grounds examined the Mystery opened the Truth cleared and the Ignorance both of Priests and People discovered But the Spirit of Truth may declare through the Temple and dwell in it which the world cannot receive 1 Cor. 6.19 John 14.16 17. THe Church is in God the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ as Paul and Silvanus writ to the Thessalonians 1 Thess 1.1 and it is made all of living stones elect and precious 1 Pet. 2 5. and the Saints their Bodyes are made fit Temples for the Holy Ghost to dwell in 2 Cor. 6.16 and they are made a fit Habitation for God through the Spirit being builded upon the Foundations of the Prophets and the Apostles of the Lord Iesus in whom all the Building fitly framed groweth unto an holy Temple in the Lord Ephes 2.20 21 22. and in this Church all are taught of God as it is written in the Prophets Isai 54.13 14. Ier. 31.33 34. and like wise in Heb. 8.10 14. and sayth Iesus Christ in Iohn 14. I will pray the Father and he shall give you mother Comforter that he may abide with you for ever even the Spitit of Truth whom the World cannot receive because it seeth him not neither knoweth him but ye know him for he dwelleth with you and shall be in you Vers 16 17. Now nothing is to speak in this Church which is spiritual but that which i● spiritual even the Holy Ghost which is invisible and incomprehensible the Woman or wisdom of the Flesh is forbidden to speak in the Church that is of the things of God for that which is flesh is flesh and the natural man he knows not the things of God they are foolishness to him neither can he know them because they are spiritually discerned 1 Cor. ● 4. and so the carnal minded man he sayth that a Woman or the female kinde ought not to speak in the Church now the first birth either in man or w●man hath nothing to do to speak in the Church the carnal part for it knows not the things of God and every man by nature is a childe of wrath and he is forbidden to speak with his carnal wisdom which he gathe edout of Books and Studyes for that nature is adulterated from God and nothing must speak in the Church in God but the Holy Ghost and that may speak in the Temple either in male or female nothing must speak in the Church but the Spirit of Truth whom the world and carnal minded ones know not God is a Spirit and they that know him know him to be to and none know him but they that are spiritual for sayth Iesu Christ Except ye be born again ye cannot enter into the Kingdom o● Heaven Iohn 3. and that which is flesh is flesh and that knoweth not the thing of God neither in male nor female but is adul erated from God but that which is spirit is spirit and is born of God either in male or female that knoweth him and that is permitted to speak in the Temple an● none can call Iesus Lord but by the Holy Ghost 1 Cor. 12.3 and be manifestation of the Spirit is given to profit withall Verse 7. and the Spirit of the Lord was made manifest through the female kind● as women ●n ●ormer ages and it was profitable for Deborah she had the m●ni●e●●ation of the Spirit of God ruling in her by which she or the lord in her did administer justice to the Israe●ite● which were the Church and People of God and she was a Judg am●n●st them and judged Israel Iudges 4.4 and she prophecyed to Bara● that a● the River Kisho● the Lord would deliver Sis●ra the Captain of I●bins Army in●o hi● h●nd See the noble acts that the Lord did by the Prop●etess his servant Deborah reade i●age● 4 5 chapters and the Lord hath sayd he will pour out his Spirit upon al● fl●sh a●d their sons and daughtors shall prophecy Ioel 2 2● ●he doth not say that flesh shall prophecy neither in son● nor daughters that is forbidden Let all Flesh be silent both in Sons and Daughters and let the Spirit speak for that is permitted either in Son or Daughter it is the Spirit that Prophesies and fore tels of the things of God and the manistacion of the Spirit is given to profit withall in a Daughter as well as in a Son that God may speak where he doth dwel in his Temple Let all carnal Wisdom in Male as well as in Female keep silence for that is not permited to speak it is adulterated from God and the natural man knowes not the things of God and he that is joyned to an Harlot is one Body 1 Cor. 6.16 and that must be judged and cast out by the Spirit of Truth and judgment being brought forth into Victory let the Truth declare it self but let all Flesh be silent till the Spirit be poured out eyther in Son or Daughter for all the Wisdom of the world it knoweth not God who is a Spirit and he chuseth the weak things of this world to confound the things which are mighty 1 Cor. 1.27.28.29 and the Woman is counted the weaker Vessel but the Lord filling that Vessel full of his Wisdom and ruleing it by his holy Spirit he dwelling in his Temple and declaring himself through it by his Son Iesus Christ it is for the Praise of the glory of his Grace that no Flesh might glory in his sight for that must be trodden under foot fleshly Wisdom and carnal Reason both in Male and Female that the Lord may be all in all in the Creature making them fit Temples for his holy Spirit to dwel in 1 Cor. 3.16 that he may speak in his Temple in the Female as well as the Male. The Body it is but the Temple it is the Man-childe Christ Iesus where he is born up into the understanding that is to declare the Fathers will and that is permited to speak the Spirit of Truth which the world cannot receive Iohn
