A77218 This is for all you the inhabitants of Whitewell to consider, who deny the perfect life of Christ to be brought forth in his people here upon earth, and manifested in their mortal flesh by a ceasing from sin. And to all others whom it may concern. Bradly, Richard, d. 1662. 1660 (1660) Wing B4125A; ESTC R170754 8,208 9

the deeds thereof I warn you all from the Spirit of the living God that you cease from so doing and own his Light a free-gift which will lead you if you obey it to Repentance and give you power to put off the deeds of darkness and to put on the armor of Light which is able to save and defend you from the power of darkness and give you victory over hell and death that you may witness the glorious liberty and freedom of the sons of God and have an inheritance into the immortal kingdom with all the children of Light and heirs of heaven but on the contrary if you go on in opposition against the Light which reproves you in secret and shews you the deeds of darkness which you live in and plead for term of life then shal darkness be your inheritance and the reward of evil-doers your portion remember you were warned in your life-time and the truth of God declared intender love to your precious souls which the witness of God in all consciences shall manifest that these things belong to your everlasting peace labour to know them before they be hid from your eies for yet you have a little time but you know not how soon time shall be no more And be it known unto you all that if you in the Light of Christ wherewith you are inlightned come to see the truth and come not to the obedience of it because it is reproached reviled despised hated and even with much tyrannie and cruelty persecuted by the prudent of the world both Rulers Priests and people but deny him who is the Light the Way the Truth and the Life Joh. 8.12 and 12. and 46 and 14.6 or refuse to confess him as your Forefathers did because they loved the praise of men more then the praise of God know this from the living God that that shall be your portion for you have chosen it and have refused to suffer with the Lord and his chosen people who suffer tribulation and shall be brought out with their robes washed with the blood of the Lamb to serve him day and night in his temple Revel 7. ver 14. But he that suffereth not with him shal not reign with him though you may think to come in when you perceive the Lord beginneth to exalt his chosen ones over the nations without but you shall know that your thoughts are vain for you refusing to suffer with the seed come not to have dominion over the nations within and so the unjust bears rule in you over the just which God will not exalt with his Son to rule over men or nations without for he will not give his glory to another who refuseth to suffer with him for by suffering is our salvation made perfect and the reward is to them that work but he that refuseth to go into the Vineyard when the Lord requireth him shall have his portion with the rebellious even so is the kingdom of heaven but all those who refuse to suffer with the body exclude themselvs from being members not coming to the fellowship of his sufferings cannot come to the fellowship of his reign for many shall strive to enter and shall not be able Why they have left the Cross behind which is the power of God for whosoever followeth him must take up his cross daily in the denial of himself and his own will and the will of God comes thereby to be known and done and where his will is done there his kingdom is come and they onely can say the Lord omnipotent reigneth but where the will of another is done the kingdom of God is not known but the prince of the power of darkness rules in the hearts of those that do his will who are the children of disobedience and of these two sorts are all people upon the face of the whole earth and here all may plainly see whose children they are the light of Christ in their consciences doth shew them whose will they do and if you deal plainly with your own souls you need not doubt whose servants you are for his servants you are to whom you obey whether of sin unto daath or of obedience unto righteousness Rom. 6.16 If you will not believe the witness of God in your own consciences nor the testimony of the holy men of God in the Scriptures whom will you believe For the Scriptures sayth Whosoever abideth in him sinneth not 1 Joh. 3. 9 he that comitteth sin is of the Devil ver 8. can you believ these plain words of Scripture for whosoever wrests them it is for his destruction There is no salvation but in Christ Jesus Mark in Christ Jesus and he that abideth in Christ Jesus is saved how doth that appear He sinneth not Mark then as long as a man sinneth he is not saved because he is not in Christ Jesus for he that committeth sin is of the Devil while he is of the Devil he is not saved Then are all that sin without salvation Yea if they abide in it But did not David sin and Peter sin and many others who are Saints in Heaven Yea they did but did not abide in it but repented of it and were saved from it which was recorded for all to beware for had they abiden in it salvation they had not known Therefore remember these plain words and let them not slip out of your minds continually salvation is not known but as sin is departed from this is truth and shall stand for ever And as sin is departed from the perfect life of the Son of God is known and witnessed and all that plead for sin are seen not to be of God but in the service of the Divel Therefore as you will answer it before the Lord take warning from his Spirit plead not against his kingdom which stands in righteousness and true holiness for he hath set his Son upon his holy hill which is becoming a great mountain in the earth and shall be established for ever in the top of the mountains and shall be exalted above the hills and all nations shall flow unto it Isa 2. ver 2. Therefore cease from that which is evil and obey the Light within and then shall you be delivered from condemnation for the way of the Lord is peace to the righteous but he rewardeth the wicked with sorrow So dear people as you tender the salvation of your pretious soule mind the fear of the Lord that so ye may be preserved out of the iniquity and may come to understand the things that belong to your everlasting peace in this day of your visitation before they be hid from your eyes now while the Light reproveth the Lord calleth and such as turn at his reproof and answer his call shall find mercy but the Light shall be the condemnation of the rebellious So as one that hath obtained mercy and tasted how good the Lord is to them that fear him and think upon his name Malach.
