ditch of perdition And further to cover your deceit you tell the people that John sayes if we say we have no sin we deceive our selves and the truth is not in us this is no ground nor warrant for you to tell people that none can be freed from sin in this life ● Joh. 1.7 for he said if we walk in the light as he is in the light we have fellowship one with another and the bloud of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin here John witnessed that the bloud of Christ cleanseth from all sin and did not write that they should all their life time live in sin though then some of them had sin and were not cleansed but he exhorted them to the light and that therein was their fellowship one with another and that the bloud of Christ cleanseth from all sin and yet you priests dare tell the people that none can be freed from sin in this life and so manifests your selves to be ignorant of the bloud of Christ which cleanseth from all sin but by his power who is the Author of sin do you in your sins rail against them who witness forth the light and life of Christ which leads into the birth wherein there is no sin and by the light do they know the bloud of Christ which cleanseth them from sin 1 John 3.6.9 and see him manifest in them in whom there is no sin And these you call deceivers and deluders and call it an error to hold forth the truth of perfection in this life or that they witness the birth wherein sin is not committed and you make your ignorant people believe that such are deceivers because they hold forth the life of the truth wherein they live and differ from you who have got a form of godliness to trade with 2 Tim. 3.5 without the life power who are to be turned away from with the Scriptures you blind the people and tell them that in the last times deceivers and salfe Prophets shall come and tell them that we are the false Prophets though in life and doctrine we utterly deny the practises of them who were foretold to be the false Prophets the true Prophets cried against such as sought for their gain from their quarters Isai 56.11 Ezek. 34. Mic. 3.11 Mat. 23. and 5.6 Luk. 11.43 Phil. 3.19 and sought for the fleece or preached for hire and divined for money and Christ witnessed against such as was called of men masters as stood praying in the Synagogues had the cheifest places in the Assemblies and the greetings in the Markets and the Apostle Paul cried against such whose God is their belly whose glory is in their shame who mind earthly things and such who by good words and fair speeches deceives the hearts of the simple and witnessed Rom. 16.18 2 Tim. 3. that such should come in the last dayes as should be lovers of them selves covetous boasters proud blasphemers and here you may see your selves to be the false Prophets and that you are them that preach for hire and divine for money and such as Christ cried against and none are more covetous than you nor more proud than you your Wives and Children and here you may see that the Apostle prophesied of your coming and the Apostle Peter cried against such as through covetousness with faigned words make merchandize of the people having eyes full of adultery 2 Pet. 2. and that cannot cease from sin beguiling unstable souls an heart they have exercised with covetous practises cursed children which have forsaken the right way and are gone astray following the way of Balaam the son of Bosar who loved the wages of unrighteousness and Jude cried against such as went in the wayes of Cain and Balaam Jude 11.16 and had mens persons in admiration because of advantage and here all that reads this and knows the Scriptures the light in their Consciences will let them see that you are the false Prophets who are found in such practises as the Scripture speaks against and all that own the life of the Scriptures cannot own you who are manifested by the Scriptures to be deceivers you live in covetousness and you use feigned words and make merchandize of the people you feign your selves to be Preachers of Righteousness and yet tell people that none can live here and not sin and here you manifest your deceit and that you are strengtheners of evil-doers that they should not forsake the evil of their doings and thus you go on in your wickedness and are exalted upon your foundation the Serpent with whom you are joyned and upon him you are builded and therein preach to continue in sin all your life time and many have builded with you and many you have dawbed with untempered morter and tell them of a perfection in another life which they that live in sin all their life time will never be able to find for their reward will be according to their works Rev. 22.12 and all workers of iniquity are to have their part in the Lake and all that build with that which they conceive and imagine to be of God great will be their fall when Christ Jesus the Rock of Righteousness appears in his Majesty to reward every one according to their deeds done in the body 2 Cor. 5.10 Given forth the sixth day of the fifth moneth in the common Goal of Edmonds-Bury in Suffolk By George Rofe Him that can receive this let him FINIS

wickedness may see that you are not come to the death and resurrection of Christ nor have any part herein but live in the world from which foundation the Lamb was slain and do yet in you lie slain and the Covenant of God the light in your Consciences is hated Isal 42.6 and the bloud of the Covenant trampled upon by the powers of darkness with which you joyn whereby the Lamb is slain and here you may see that you are guilty of the bloud of the Son of God and how can you escape the death who are in such bloud guiltiness seeing that if man sheds mans bloud he is to die and how much more will God be avenged for the bloud of his onely begotten Son Rev. 11.8 who is crucified in you and by you spiritually and you are spiritually in Sodom and Egypt and are builded upon another foundation than the Lamb and your foundation is upon him who slew the Lamb at first and led man into the transgression Man was created upright Eccles 10.29 but he found out many inventions and run into them and followed not the Lamb and for this cause came the Curse upon man and in the curse do the world live in wicked inventions and follow the imaginations of their evil hearts which are subjected to the Devils will and here is the foundation of the world the Serpent the subtle beast Rev. 13. who causeth all the world to wonder after him and worship him and leads them captive at hiis will and the world seeks out many inventions and are in many wayes and sects and forms and opinions all in the fall and invent and imagine many wayes to find out the way of God and conceive many things from the Scriptures which is a book sealed from them and in the world is the many meanings and many judgments and opinions of the words which were never spoken by such as they are who according to the imaginations and conceivings of their own hearts pretend to worship the living God who is not known by such as are in the wicked inventions and there live after the deceitfulness of their own hearts and thus all the world lives in pretences of worshipping the true God some in one way and some in another way and strive particularly to maintain each his way which are all in unrighteousness Mat. 11.25 26 27. and none of them are come to know the Father by the revelation of the Son nor to know the Son Gen. 10. who reveals the Father but are all as the builders of Babell in great confusion though but one foundation they build upon the Serpent he who slew the Lamb and now hath all the world to worship him who are builders and build by his power and all along reject the Lamb who in the Church is now become the head of the Corner Mat. 21.42 Rev 19.18 20 and 20.8.10 who will overthrow Gog and Magog and beat down the world and its foundation and overcome the Beast and cast the false Prophets and Priests and worlds Teachers who all live in wickedness into the Lake together and dash down their foundation of unrighteousness the Serpent who lodges in the Schools where the false Prophets learn their divination and to divine for money for gifts and rewards the wages of unrighteousness And you Priests may see the foundation of your Priesthood and buildings to be the Serpent who leads you day by day to study Divination and to follow after the inventions of your own hearts In the beginning man was made upright but he found out many inventions and here you may see your buildings to be upon the Serpent the inventer of all evil with whom you are at agreement and are fully swallowed up in your foundation of unrighteousness the Serpent who hath led you long to deceive the people and to make a prey upon them and some you have begotten by your ministry to be one with you and your strength the Prince of darkness who over-shadoweth you and many of your ignorant people that follow you he leads you all in wickedness and ignorance and unbelief so that you are resolved to go on in wickedness so long as you live upon the earth and in your unbelief judge that none can live without sining Rev. 12.17 and so blasphemes against the seed of the woman which keeps the Commands of God and against the Saints who are born of God and cannot sin because the Seed of God remaineth in them and he that saith he knoweth God 1 Joh. 3.9 and keepeth not his Commandements is a liar 1 Joh. 2.4 and 2.6 and the truth is not in him and he that saith he abideth in Christ ought he himself to walk even as he walked and he that transgresseth and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ hath not God and Christ said to his be ye perfect 2 Joh. 9. Mat. 5.48 as your Father in heaven is perfect and here you Priests may see in the Scripture that you are far from having God who are resolved to go on in wickedness and would have people to believe that none can be freed from sin in this life and so strive to keep people all their time in wickedness and you your selves know not that birth wherein sin is not committed and how can you lead any into the new birth Joh. 3.3 without which none can enter into the Kingdom of God and when Paul was in the travel to the birth of the righteous Seed that the war was great in him he cried out O wretched man that I am who shall deliver me from the body of this death and with this you blind the people and tell them that Paul cried out of the body of sin so long as he lived and so feeds the people with the inventions of your own hearts for Paul witnessed a deliverance from the body of sin in this life Gal. 2.19 20. and said in his Epistle to the Galatians that he was dead to the Law and that it was no more he that lived but Christ that lived in him and where none but Christ liveth there cannot be evil committed neither did he then complain of the body of sin but was come to the birth of the just and he wrot to Timothy that he had fought the good fight and kept the faith 2 Tim. 4.7 and then he did not complain of the body of sin but was compleat in Christ in whom there is no sin and he spoak wisdom among them that was perfect and said 1 Cor. 2.6 Phil. 3.15 2 Cor. 13.11 Let us therefore as many of us as be perfect be thus minded and bad the Corinthians be perfect and yet with Pauls words you blind guides blind the people and make his complaints while he was in the war a cover for your errors and heresies wherein you lead the people in blindness and you blind guides will lead the blind till you fall into the
