found in which the Spirit of the Lord leads him not unto he will not know Salvation but Condemnation will be his or their Portion forever if they repent not and Forsake not the Evil of their Wayes and it is not the Priest's saying My Soul for thy Soul will excuse any in the Day of Account for the Lord is clear and will be clear of the Blood of all men and Man's Destruction is of himself but his Help is in me saith the Lord God that lives forever And therefore Wo unto you Priests the Blood of many of the People will be required at your Hands because through your dark Working and subtil Inventions you have allured many and drawn many and kept many from the Knowledge of the Lord and spoken Peace unto many when the Lord has spoken Trouble and you being ignorant of the Arm and Power of the Lord that sets the Soul free from Sin have invented or imagined a Purgatory after Death which say you People whose Sins are not done away here must be done away in Purgatory which Purgatory say you is a Place of Fire And O you Priests what is the Reason you have no more Love to People who have so much Confidence in you and who confess unto their Dying Day unto you and as you make them believe you have Power to Absolve all their Sins and yet you are so Cruel and so Hard hearted unto them that you leave a Part of their Sins unpardoned and unremitted to be done away in Purgatory A Cheat indeed Is not one Reason that may be given for it That you may have a Gift given to your Church that you may say Mass for their Souls many years after And how do you know who they are that go to Purgatory But blessed be the Name of the Lord that lives forever who has opened the Eyes of a Remnant to see over and beyond all your dark Inventions and Imaginations and the Lord has and will open the Eyes of Thousands in this Nation and in other Nations who are and shall be gathered from amongst you and shall give Testimony to the Arm and Power of the Lord God of Life and in the Strength thereof shall be able to offer up their Lives if the Lord require it of them in Testimony to his Ancient Way and Holy Path which was before your dark Inventions were and shall be when they are come to an End For behold and take notice they had a time of Rising and the Time of their Rising is seen and the Time of their Down fal● is seen also for all your dark Inventions did rise when the Apostacye t●red when the Devil the old Adversary of Mankind had drawn the Mind of man from the Gift of God from the Appearance of Christ within which is the Saints Hope of Glory and so led men into Imaginations and Inventions of Worships out of the Spirit of God and from the Life of Christ and so men being gone from the Spirit and out of the Life of Jesus imagined a Purgatory after Death and set up Worships and Services contrary to the Worship that Christ Jesus set up and bore Testimony unto whose Worship was and is in the Spirit and in the Truth which the Devil is out of and has no part therein Now they that have set up Worships and Services in their own Wills and in their own Times and have compelled People to bow thereunto and have taken the Lives of those who have been raised to bear Testimony against their Idolatries and Superstitions its manifest these are not of the Church of God but of the Devil who was a Murderer from the Beginning who moved Cain to kill Abel his Brother So you Papists that Murder for Religion see who is your Father and what Stock you are of and if in your Wills you Fast and Pray and at times Afflict your Bodies with your own Doings the Lord will not regard you for none of these things for you are found Workers of Iniquity Therefore be awakened unto Righteousness and turn your Minds inward to the Righteous Principle of God For whatsoever may be known of God is manifested within man for the Appearance of God is within and he that formed the Mountains and he that created the Winds and maketh the Morning Darkness and treadeth upon the High Places of the Earth and sheweth unto Man what his Thoughts are the Lord God of Hosts is his Name Therefore fear ye before him and dread his Holy Name and break off from your Idols and Images and from your own Inventions and hearken unto him in the inward of your Hearts that shews you when you tell a Lye and when you swear an Oath and when you speak Vain Words and when you have been sporting your selves in Pleasures and passing away your Times in Playes that sometimes after all these things meets with you and sometimes in the midst of your Pleasures causes Sadness of Heart yea and when you are from your Company or when you are upon your Beds meets with you and smites you in your Consciences and reproves you for these things Oh! my Cry is unto you Turn you unto him that reproves for if ever you come to know a laying down your Heads in Peace when time in this World shall be no more you must turn and depart from that which he reproves you for for the Reproofs of God's Instruction is the Way to Life and there is not another Way now I know Self has a Life in the Pleasures that are in this World but Self must be denyed by all that will be Disciples of Jesus for Christ Jesus has said He that will be my Disciple must deny himself and take up his daily Cross and follow me This Cross of Christ is not made with Hands but it is the Power of God which separates from the Evil that is in the World and crucifies and mortifies the Lust of the Flesh and leads out of the Pride of Life which is not of the Father but of this World and this World passeth away and the Glory of it Therefore fear man no longer whose Breath is in his Nostrils but fear and dread the Living God who will give unto every man a Reward according to the Deeds done in the Body whether they be Good or whether they be Evil this was the Doctrine of Christ Jesus who preached himself the Light of the World He said to the Jews If you believe not that I am he you shall dye in your Sins and whither I go you cannot come this was Christ's Testimony to the Unbelieving Jews Now Papists what will you do Will you believe Christ Jesus in whose Mouth was never Guile found Or will you believe your lying Priests who tell you of a Purgatory after Death which some of you must go into stay a while there and then go to Heaven afterwards where Christ Jesus is lying Priests Deceivers Murderers of Souls indeed for so I in truth can call
