A60851 Some breathings of life, from a naked heart presented in love to the honest, vpright, and single-hearted, that they, with me may wait to feel the imediate drawings, and leadings of the Holy Spirit in all things ... so that they need not any man to teach them, 1 Joh. 2. 27., with an epistle for peace and unity.

serving in the Spirit and walking in the Spirit or else be still Did Israel trust upon God and rest wholly upon him they would find him their rest And good it is to be found faithfull in what they are called of God And so in their Callings to abide with God and then is man in his place one day as well as another for there hath been a time of shewing these things unto many and there may be a time of practizing the same what they have seen and that from the Lord concerning their coming out of observation of dayes and though they cannot act therein so inoffensively as they would in respect of them without yet to do it as inoffensively as they can Now who have believed do enter into rest and he that is entred into his rest he also hath ceased from his own works as God did from his And such a one his Servant shall rest as well as him and his Cattel likewise for a good man is merciful to his Beast And if any more publiquely hath a testimony to bear against their day and that from the Lord let none be offended but all Israel keep in keep coole and quiet And that is the way to keep safe and not to strive to go forth that day more then another If that there was formerly Collection for the Saints on the first day of the week must there needs be meetings on that day whether the Spirit of the Lord move or not For as to time I know it from the Lord that there is none more holy then other For the Seed of God being come up sees over time and beyond and as it is kept in the Dominion over things in time and keeps open and single unto God which is the blessed Seed or that in which the blessing is and seeth all time in the Fathers hand For feast-days holy-dayes or Sabbath-days what were they more then Shadows of good things to come but the Body is Christ whose day is holy and his rest is Everlasting For all Shaddows were to terminate in something be they what they would Christ the end of all things in whom all Types Figures and Shadows end the restorer of the Creation the Rest that God hath prepared for his People in whose Arm of Power the weary Soul finds rest And the resting in any outward Observation or Thing could not give rest to the Soul therefore was there a necessity of bringing in that which was more perfect the better hope by which we draw nigh unto God And when that which is perfect is come then that which is imperfect comes to be done away So each thing was to be done as under the Covenant in which it was and according to its appointment but the first gave place unto the second and was changed then there must be also a change of the rest For the Priest-hood being changed there must be also a change of the things that were done under it A change of their offerings which Christ the one Offering ends and the end of their Law by which they took their Tithes Christ within the hope of Glory the Mystery hid but now revealed praises be to his Name who liveth for ever who is the Souls Bishop who watcheth over and taketh the Care of his Flock for had his Compassions failed we had not been a People whose Love hath overcome my heart therefore have I a Zeal for him and for his People And it is his blessed appearance that is to be waited for that blesseth you the Glory of the Lord to fill his own Temple which appearance many have waited for For of old they were to go up by appointment and do things in its Order And we are now to receive an appointment before we do and to do things as under that Covenant in which we are not according to the Letter of a dispensation as they that were ordered according to the Law of the Carnal Commandment which was to come to its end but in newnesse of Spirit to receive the Commandment new and in all things to be ordered according to the power of the endlesse Life For it is the New Testament to which we are come where are new and fresh discoveries and leadings according to his will that we are Children of He made known his Will unto the Children of the first Covenant which they were to obey and do and he maketh knows his mind by putting his Law into our minds that we might serve and obey him likewise not as they did in the oldnesse of the Letter but in newness of the Spirit And this is that which we are to keep on in the New and Living way that leadeth unto the Living God wherein is found the Daily Bread for that which I Received Yesterday will not serve me to day nor that which I have to day will not serve me to morrow but I must have it fresh and new and then it is good So that this I find according to the mind of the Spirit of God in me to be the time under which we are as New-Covenant Children to Act in newnesse to walk in newnesse of life marke new for the ●ords have an import in the very sound of the Covenants the first could not continue which was old and ready to vanish away but the second is new and everlasting and abides for ever and is a Covenant of life and peace to all that stand in it or live answerable to it So that this is according to what Moses Prophesied of Christ that 〈◊〉 was to be heard in all things And said the Minister of Christ whatsever ye do in word or deed do all in the Name of the Lord Jesus or in his power that the power may stir first then in the name of Jesus which is the Saviour there is safty And so he may be called a spirituall man that doth all in the spirit and with it and a good understanding wherein the true worshippers worship the Father in spirit in truth And this will be a Dread among People that they see we serve God indeed with Reverence and Godly Fear not in our own Time nor Will nor their Will but when he pleaseth or stirreth and not till then And this is that which is acceptable not Customary Formally or by Tradition as others have done which the Lord hath cast out before us And the Lord knowes I am even sick with love therefore beare with me and overcome with the goodnesse of the Lord which my soule hath felt and it is the life of love that I breath after to see brought forth among us to know the depth thereof gifts may cease and tongues may cease but love abideth which is most excellent And this when even tyred and wearied in my mind the Lord fixed me upon his spirit of love which he hath born up in me which I prayed the Lord and supplicated him for as seeing a beauty in it which the Lord will bring his
