A89849	A salutation to the seed of God. And a call out of Babylon, and Egypt, from amongst the magitians, where the house of bondage is, and the imaginations rules above the seed of God, the cause of all blindnes, and condemnation. Also that which is perfect made manifest, even everlasting righteousnesse, which endures for all generations, ... With the way to him, set forth most for such as groan for freedome from the power of sin; but may be serviceable to all who loves his appearance. Also a testimony from Christ what he is in this world, and where he is; ... Also a suite to such rulers, magistrates, and governours, as have not wholly hardened their hearts, and stopt the eare against the voyce of the spirit, that they may hear and their soules may live, and be established a blessing to the nations. With some things more added to this second impression. / Written in love to all your soules, by him who is called James Naylor.	Naylor, James, 1617?-1660.	1655 (1655)	Wing N310; Thomason E852_25	31,397	40

come_v to_o see_v the_o power_n that_o sin_n have_v not_o over_o you_o and_o that_o you_o be_v whole_o pollute_v and_o sell_v under_o it_o then_o will_v you_o see_v the_o great_a transgression_n and_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n will_v appear_v in_o you_o and_o so_o your_o heart_n will_v grow_v tender_a in_o his_o fear_n which_o be_v but_o the_o beginning_n of_o the_o knowledge_n of_o god_n and_o his_o wisdom_n and_o so_o wait_v in_o the_o light_n you_o will_v come_v to_o see_v open_n and_o breathe_n after_o christ_n jesus_n in_o which_o abide_n and_o wait_v low_o in_o the_o fear_n you_o will_v come_v to_o see_v some_o open_n and_o promise_n of_o the_o father_n love_n to_o that_o seed_n which_o be_v breathe_v in_o you_o after_o he_o and_o some_o hope_n of_o pardon_n of_o sin_n in_o christ_n jesus_n and_o so_o come_v to_o see_v the_o law_n and_o the_o prophet_n prophesy_v which_o condition_n many_o have_v come_v to_o and_o then_o have_v lose_v their_o condition_n by_o the_o mind_n get_v out_o of_o the_o fear_n and_o flesh_n exalt_v into_o the_o promise_n and_o so_o come_v to_o get_v the_o wound_n heal_v before_o death_n be_v slay_v and_o so_o lose_v that_o little_a communion_n they_o have_v with_o god_n afar_o off_o but_o never_o come_v so_o far_o as_o to_o the_o wash_n thorough_o nor_o to_o the_o marriage_n but_o the_o light_a mind_n get_v into_o this_o and_o tattle_v it_o out_o to_o other_o and_o call_v it_o experience_n yet_o never_o come_v so_o far_o as_o to_o see_v christ_n and_o the_o father_n yet_o after_o these_o do_v the_o world_n wonder_n notwithstanding_o they_o live_v in_o the_o same_o filthiness_n as_o they_o do_v former_o yet_o say_v they_o i_o have_v assurance_n so_o many_o year_n since_o and_o the_o promise_n of_o god_n be_v sure_a and_o his_o covenant_n can_v be_v break_v but_o can_v see_v that_o the_o condition_n be_v lose_v and_o the_o seed_n be_v bury_v under_o the_o earthly_a pleasure_n to_o which_o the_o promise_n be_v for_o the_o promise_n be_v to_o the_o seed_n which_o be_v one_o not_o to_o seed_n which_o be_v many_o gal._n 3._o 16._o not_o to_o the_o fleshly_a man_n which_o be_v now_o get_v up_o but_o to_o the_o spiritual_a seed_n which_o be_v meek_a and_o lowly_a which_o god_n teach_v and_o bless_v and_o the_o creature_n that_o turn_v to_o it_o be_v bless_v because_o of_o that_o meek_a spirit_n into_o which_o they_o be_v turn_v and_o shall_v be_v for_o ever_o if_o in_o it_o they_o do_v continue_v for_o to_o it_o be_v the_o covenant_n which_o can_v be_v break_v therefore_o all_o that_o depart_v out_o of_o it_o it_o will_v not_o follow_v for_o than_o shall_v not_o the_o covenant_n stand_v sure_a in_o that_o seed_n which_o be_v but_o one_o one_o heart_n one_o mind_n one_o soul_n one_o spirit_n and_o whosoever_o receive_v this_o unity_n of_o faith_n shall_v find_v this_o covenant_n sure_a but_o this_o be_v never_o place_v in_o the_o worldly_a seed_n but_o in_o the_o spiritual_a so_o the_o carnal_a be_v death_n and_o hell_n that_o be_v its_o counant_n but_o the_o spiritual_a be_v life_n and_o peace_n that_o be_v its_o covenant_n and_o each_o covenant_n stand_v sure_a to_o they_o who_o be_v in_o they_o so_o that_o creature_n who_o be_v sometime_o tender_a and_o lowly_a mind_v and_o that_o seed_n awaken_v to_o which_o be_v the_o promise_n not_o wait_v in_o the_o promise_n till_o it_o be_v perform_v the_o creature_n turn_v into_o the_o world_n where_o the_o curse_n be_v and_o there_o inherit_v yet_o be_v the_o covenant_n sure_a to_o the_o seed_n and_o all_o that_o abide_v in_o it_o and_o this_o all_o witness_n who_o have_v wait_v in_o their_o measure_n though_o he_o that_o turn_v from_o it_o be_v damn_v and_o if_o you_o abide_v faithful_a in_o the_o light_n wait_v you_o will_v be_v so_o far_o from_o turn_v into_o the_o liberty_n of_o the_o flesh_n that_o you_o will_v see_v every_o vain_a thought_n and_o imagination_n judge_v in_o the_o first_o motion_n and_o the_o ground_n of_o all_o sin_n you_o will_v see_v lay_v open_a and_o so_o come_v to_o see_v the_o axe_n lay_v to_o the_o root_n of_o the_o corrupt_a tree_n that_o have_v bring_v forth_o the_o evil_a fruit_n which_o be_v john_n ministry_n and_o the_o baptism_n of_o repentance_n and_o so_o be_v lead_v on_o to_o he_o who_o fulfil_v all_o righteonsness_n and_o that_o kingdom_n you_o will_v hear_v preach_v at_o hand_n which_o consist_v not_o in_o word_n but_o in_o power_n then_o vain_a babbler_n you_o will_v come_v to_o see_v and_o avoid_v and_o be_v bring_v only_o to_o press_v after_o righteousness_n and_o so_o see_v your_o light_n grow_v and_o spring_v up_o to_o the_o burn_a and_o shine_v till_o the_o daystar_n arise_v in_o your_o heart_n then_o will_v you_o cease_v to_o put_v god_n and_o christ_n afar_o off_o you_o and_o wait_v to_o see_v christ_n in_o you_o the_o hope_n of_o glory_n and_o so_o come_v to_o see_v christ_n in_o you_o the_o light_n the_o way_n the_o truth_n and_o the_o life_n and_o not_o to_o have_v your_o light_n and_o life_n to_o seek_v in_o a_o book_n without_o you_o nor_o from_o man_n but_o christ_n your_o life_n in_o you_o make_v manifest_a in_o your_o mortal_a body_n and_o so_o come_v to_o the_o son_n and_o to_o see_v he_o reveal_v by_o he_o come_v to_o have_v the_o father_n reveal_v also_o and_o so_o come_v to_o the_o knowledge_n of_o god_n which_o be_v life_n eternal_a even_o god_n in_o his_o temple_n where_o he_o be_v worship_v in_o spirit_n and_o truth_n and_o this_o truth_n in_o you_o and_o this_o god_n in_o you_o then_o shall_v you_o know_v that_o your_o body_n

then_o to_o fall_v into_o the_o defence_n of_o god_n alone_o or_o when_o the_o world_n tempt_v with_o the_o great_a pleasure_n then_o to_o deny_v all_o for_o the_o love_n of_o god_n this_o be_v soon_o talk_v on_o but_o none_o can_v have_v it_o but_o who_o have_v receive_v it_o in_o the_o same_o way_n of_o obedience_n that_o christ_n have_v go_v before_o and_o lead_v in_o spirit_n and_o power_n all_o he_o after_o he_o who_o believe_v in_o his_o light_n and_o follow_v it_o then_o may_v you_o say_v follow_v we_o as_o we_o follow_v christ_n and_o walk_v as_o you_o have_v we_o for_o example_n

the_o mean_a time_n go_v on_o to_o fill_v up_o the_o measure_n of_o evil_a and_o so_o go_v to_o the_o grave_n in_o fear_n and_o torment_v and_o all_o those_o call_v and_o reproof_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o light_n in_o your_o own_o heart_n now_o by_o you_o slight_v be_v by_o he_o record_v and_o remain_v a_o testimony_n against_o you_o till_o that_o dreadful_a appearance_n of_o the_o righteous_a

and_o his_o next_o appearance_n cry_v they_o down_o without_o and_o set_v up_o the_o substance_n of_o they_o within_o so_o that_o god_n have_v be_v force_v all_o along_o to_o pull_v down_o what_o he_o himself_o do_v set_v up_o though_o never_o so_o good_a yet_o if_o cannal_a the_o carnal_a mind_n will_v get_v into_o it_o and_o adulterate_a from_o the_o maker_n as_o you_o may_v read_v in_o the_o
