God is love and love is light and light is the true guide to God himself thus God is love he let down his loveliness in created appearances he giving light into the soul of man it is guided by that light into the center it came out from which is God himself Now brethren the truest name that Christ can be ciphered out unto the sons of men is this in Hebrew Sabbah oli the English is the whole holy light that is true Christ. Now I will shew you the word that Christ is denoted from and what the word in import will bear and give you the reasons to conduce the proof of what I have laid down Christ in the Greek is Cristos which if truly understood doth denote unto us Light the Hebrew doth hold more full in strength of illustration for nothing can hold with its Original that is no strength to the Original strength for know that from the Original that that is it is but derived from the Original in which lies the glory of that derived The first proof to this is that God is the Original we and the whole creation is but derived from God who is the all of our continuing good and the glory is still in himself and our glory in him he is our Original there is the first Original and his reason rendred The second reason of glory in the Original is this That the derivasi hath its dependancie on the Original it was derived from as Adam the first figure our glory in creation lies in Adam as we are a derivation from that figure that is the outside figure But now I come to the inward spirit that is light or Christ in the soul which is but the same now to prove true light to be true Christ thus Sabah oli apethrat al in re sabie pelma amaret al.

great day of Jubelli through the land of your captivity Say aloud that Sions God comes in strength to deliver his afflicted people out of the Northern Iron that hath held them long by reason of its strength in the Yoak but now peace and joy is coming from God to do his wondrous works before the sons of men O all ye people fear the Lord praise him for his mercy is coming forth in the deliverance of his people like unto a full flowing sea that shall drowne all the opposers of his people yet his inheritance they shall be safely preserved in these great Seas of trouble that is coming upon the earth even in the great storms is Israels returne for his deliverer is the God the Lord who is mighty in battle O beloved God will reduce the Nations for your sake O ye Jewes ye holy seed ye sons of Jacob nay Israel O salem O salem O salem ad te Israel from thy God who will magnifie thee with beauty of excellency he shall comfort thee according to the time wherein he hath afflicted thee Selah Treas trinitatas ad me in locubut el et in se avaret sebenius in re orcat al dereus in se sabat allilujah in sem abatar aluat The English Three in one to me is one and in that one his onely name I speak to ye my brethren the Jews for I am not sent unto the Gentiles but unto the Jews the Jews ye holy seed the holy rock my brethren yet ye Gentiles shall rejoyce with his people O Jerusalem thou liest desolate but strength is come from thy God and the veins of thy Children begin to receive nutriment or nourishment Behold adayaday thy watchman sees that is felicity to thee O loving daughter Sion the birds being to feel the heat of thy Spring for thy nuptials are at hand O diamanim hakkarim in se-el selat ori abraet addonier sela ori abba selorum deme mentrac is selat araura aluat apphi selat in re The English O the triangle of beauty is adorative for thee thou poor Shulamite for God will honour thee before all the Nations they shall come forth refined gold in the middest of thee is holiness thy Priests shall be clothed in righteousness from the Lord and an immediat answer shall go along with thee that thou shalt slide no more thy watch-man is the holy one that will incompass thee and under his shadow shalt thou sing unto thy God in safety There is the Postscript Englished to a tittle but t is read affirmatively and negatively but it is it self without mans polluted invention O sene sapuit al bene mem delos in re sebestiana aluat eli ponderanet all ugostah albanum in re The English both affirmative and negative O the seat of wisdome is in God himself that is perfection and his showing to his people they there by are inwrapped into himself by the beauty of his excellency this is affirmatively Now to read this insert negatively it is this God doth take to himself a holy people that he will gather out of all Nations through the strength of his owne power and he will beautify them with his owne beauty this is negative and affirmative for it is Gods will and that is all As for the creature it is as a drop of a bucket or the dust of the balance O that the creature would but truely be content with what he truly is then would flow forth declaratives that he was a citizen ingrafted into the new Jerusalem which ingraftment flowing forth from that root it is Love Peace Joy and Charity Now I desire we that are named Christians of the Gospel of Christ so called would but look every one into himself and see if this word Charity be in our root and be not deceived for no Christians without charity be our root neither Gospel except charity for charity is the Gospels root and foundation Now I will shew you though I am unlearned the original of this word charity it is the word of words and a word of the greatest concernment that is named in the true Scripture for the word charity imports or denotes binding the word in the Hebrew is Rokas ר ק י it is wrote in ם Sambah or Sameck the true Greek word to be taken out of his Essence which essence is Rokas the Greek word derived from that Essence it is Kias the Latine word in truth is to make these three words one single meaning or signification the Latine word is Christus But Scholars I say Christos that is the proper word in the Latin now in English it is Christ this is charity for charity is Christ Now I prove it thus Christ in Hebrew Greek and Latine and in English is but one entire and alone root from whence flowes forth in operation one intire act or acting that is love in truth and truth in love is charity and charity in truth is Christ the Lord ruling in love and distilling in beams of mercy so Christ is Christos Kias and Rokas that is onely the distinct names in their tongues of one very true thing that is Charity or Christ or love or mercy or righteousness Now beloved is it not strange that a Circumcised Jew should bring unto the view of the world the true declarative of Christ the Lord and preach Jesus the Saviour to both Jews and Gentiles for the reconcilement of both into one root and let me tell you ye Gentiles that boast your selves in your Gospel and in the name Jesus as the Lord lives there is not one in ten thousands of people nay further not one in ten millions of people knows truely what Jesus their Saviour is and ye are all lost in your supposed knowing for ye are deceived with the name Jesus is the substance thing and let me till you it is not your knowing him by name stands you in any stead but it is his mercy that takes you of his free mercy into himself nothing that you can learn neither any thing you can do that purchases any favour or anger but it is his free alone mercy that taketh his thing made which is man and the creation into himself from whence in strength it in beauty issued forth and being become weak in and of it self yet by God it is taken into his stable strength there to remain in glory O olloavallo soam arby selos in sabietar alm●●nosauruva al allat oli bene am addoremu● sebat allilujah selo●um apahaet al dele mem

though it be Gods Spirit in the heart and the heart be sanctified yet a body of corruption doth remain for know that the inward righteousness cannot be demonstrated outwardly for it is another creation in man and not of man nor by man but by God himself and this creation that is spiritual cannot be demonstrated temporal Now here grows the mistake for the outward motional man that is mans spirit that is quick and motional and so swift that it is a subject of deceit and subject to deceit onely by the a yrie composure it was abstracted from this is mans spirit natural Now to show the maxzim it is this The spirit in the flue or full motion moveth in man this is Gods spirit in man and it doth through the operative power inlighten the dark spirit in man that is mans natural spirit but till that the spirit of God hath wholly subjected the natural spirit of man unto its own light there is a greater declarative of false light than before for when we were dead to life in the spirit of darkness then we were one with the world but being making alive in or by the spirit of God there is a great strong work declared both of truth and the lye by a strong motion acting in strength that is when the strong man sin is standing for the conquest and the opposition never ceases till the spirit of God hath gotten the prevalencie Now in this conquest by the spirit of God this natural spirit speaketh great names of things till that the spirit of God come like a sithe and cuts down the natural spirit even by the roots and causes an erection of righteousness then where sin did abound there grace shall abound much more unto the praise or glory of God which is denoted in this Hebrew word Gehest the ancient Greek word is Siah the Latine word is Cristus but I say Cristos the Hebrew word doth denominate thus much A root a strength unresistable a Forme a Tower and a Cave and a Circle The Greek word Siah doth import to know or overcome or to remain or sent the Latine word Cristos doth import an anointing a knowing and it will bear no more Now know that Massah is a Saviour and a Deliverer now all these is but the Gospel in the intendant Now let me speak to you all that can be spoken of the Gospel that glorious word and that magnificent transcendantest Gospel which word and Gospel are two words but one entire beauty of excellency that is not your called word of God neither Bible nor the new Testament nor that you call Gospel and the word of God but every life appearance is Gods word and not dead letters or names set together now that you are zealous for I my self have been as great a Zelot for them dead names called the written word of God Now I will show you that which in truth none in majoritie can deny that is this Gods word is truth and endureth for ever you cannot deny this The Word was made flesh that Text is false for the word in truth is in that Text the Word dwelt in flesh now mind the soul of man enlightned by Gods spirit is the Gospel the Word and the Truth and the living life of God in man for then God is said to dwell with men that is when God rules by his Spirit in the soul that is the Gospel and the holy word of God in the soul and not the dead letters and names that we by reading do so idolize and I do affirm that by man it is made the great Idol in Europe by this false conception for man thinks that he renews from that outward word and knows not that it is the gift of God illuminating within One word more to conclude this point Do you think that motion in the soul arises from without or from the life principle within judge ye whether your understanding be not within your selves every one of you the truth of that true knowledge is the gift of God into thy soul and this is thy Idolatry that thou sacrificest the gift given to be learned in from the dead name of mans false composure of names together so thou makest the living God and his richest and greatest gift to be conferred to thee through that and from and by that dead name written word or name Gospel Now word and Gospel it is the living life of God in you by the Spirit of himself that is the Gospel judge ye all whether it be so or not for as I have declared 't is not the name that can confer the thing but the thing it self doth confer it self without the name and then man speaketh the name from the thing done that is in short thus much God hath given the Gospel or the Spirit or the Word or life into the soul of man then it is Scriptum est it is then inwritten digitus Dei with the finger of God O! that of undoes all but I intend it another thing then is there stated Now know that the word of God cannot be written by none but himself here again you are all deceived that thinks that it can be wrote by man for know that the word of God abideth for ever it is the living life of God in the soul and that is wrote by and with the finger by God himself for the naming the words that flows from the ingraftment that is the light of God in the soul Now write this upon paper it is but a lye compare it with the truth in the heart for that Scriptum est in cor that is the writing in the heart by the finger of God it remains for ever Wherefore doth it remain for ever Enim est digitus Dei for it is written by the finger of God and that writing is and is is that writing and cannot be defaced and that writing causes the soul to move from death to life at last raises the soul into the celestial center O amalam orbeus in re fasisti nebat alli El. The English is O the evil in the eye of the soul by the writing of God upon that soul is cast forth Now I intreat you mind all people this is all the contest betwixt me and the enemies of light that is this I say by the grace given me that the name is not the thing now you say that the name is the thing by consequence but you understand not what you say You say that the Bible and the new Testament is the word of God which I deny and I affirm it is but the name of that word and falsly spell'd and set together and mans invention added in many places for ends of concernment Now I say the word of God can no man write but God himself and to ascribe that to the writing that belongs to God himself you thereby rob God of his glory and are grievous Idolaters Now let me speak I say there is such a
Justness in God and such a justness in his declarative written that if one word or letter or tittle in the whole books be not true in word and in truth in time and truth in place it ought to be rejected and refused for know there is no perfection but in God and the spellings or denotation of God must be perfect to a mite nay to it self otherwise we make God a Lyar and an imperfect thing which far be it from us to think so Now to come to close and state a Quere and it is to the great learned ones in all Tongues and Languages if they dare affirm that the Translation of the Bible and the new Testament is truth in all its coherencies and dependancies and in adjuncts and conjuncts and in affinacy and definacy and in reluctancy to a tittle to a mite to it self let them be put to their Oaths in this and when they have done it is not the word of God but the writing by man which is but Signam manum the sign of the hand naming the outward sound from the inward significant Now I Theauraujohn say and affirm that the writing in English cannot hold the truth in Translation from the Hebrew by reason of the weakness in it and the excluding certain letters I know of y and f and q and w and other dubious consonants in consequence that are wholy destructive to the true truth in the signification therefore blessed be the Lord our God that hath sent his Light to reduce you from your Idolizing the shadow or name and by his resurrection in you sheweth you the truth and the true thing which is Christ the Lord the beauty of excellency which is Massah or al or Jehovah Salem ad te Israel arbat Wrote by me Theauraujohn Taniour the Jew Allah al sabbah Skribahjael High-Priest Epistle 16. Wrote at Eltham O Beloved the word is life and life is light and light is God the glorious Creator of the whole all altogether Now brethren my God will furnish me with Raddical expressions whereby to let down the true meaning in the intendant and at this time and in this Epistle is divers matters in name let down the first is this Primus maxzi that is the Oli al in man that is Gods Image in man that is the soul in man and that soul tyed with the essence Ti into God or in God both the expressions will hold so as the soul is the light of God set in man so is the light of man wholly set in God Now to illustrate thus the Ti of God in the soul of man it is an onenes though a derivative with himself in Essencie and shall be at the unmodeling of every figure it shall be taken into regencie I shall through the light conveyed unto me unvail this great contested for amongst us concerning the soul Id est de faciendam a Deo vors vita alvi pele athrat The English of the first state speaking of the soul it is to say the making of God now mind there is the first state The second is this the strong life is Gods making himself mind I am the life of the world or I am the strong life in the world mind this is Gods Omnipotency But to come to define these words that is two words and you hold them to be one word in the weight of the import The word in Hebrew in the Orthodox it is Veau or Vea signifying Gods making from himself and yet tyed in himself thus Ve is in all states a severation but Ve being barred in by א Alif Scholars this citation is for you though it be from an unlearned man thus א Alif includes the separating Ve or ו Vau for in the separating connexion א Alif doth bind the connexied into his majority thus Ve it severs א Alif is the first declarative of Gods strength And know the first is the tying strength that produces all things in appearances and the strength in them appearances is truth and by truth God doth keep the Creations tyed in himself for in him we live move and have our beings this is a true written sentence but not Gods word Now I come to shew you that great mystery that few or none of you understand that is these two distinct words whereby you are wrapped in ignorance that is this saith the insert in the Bible God made man in his own image or likeness The both comparisons I deny in their affirmative state and it is said God created them both male and female Now brethren what odds do you judge there is in these two words nay I may say them one word they are two distincts in God himself and we in our weak English make a connexion nay an oneness and an entireness of these two words God made man in his own image or God Created man in his own Image Now I beseech you brethren mind God made the proper word in the ancientest Copy the word is Akkivene that doth import Gods making ●trength and strength is making Now to understand this making in God first and in man next being the product by Akkivene that is man was produced by Gods strength First to quere in God it is vanity so to do but take this short state God is and that is strength But to come to the conjunct of this strength whereof man is one nay the gloriousest figure in Gods earthly field made in the image of God Now do all people in the world know that man was not made For know that that you account the body and the soul are the body and man he is denoted by the Spirit that is the strength of God in man that is the man and the Scriptures hold forth the same for there is a natural man and there is a Spiritual man now you understand it to be a man in grace or favour with God a man that is sealed by the Spirit of God as it is said but let me tell you that Oli al doth inhabit in every man and woman and they inhabit not it until the natural is subjected to the spiritual and then it is properly said and if in property of speech understood that man is subject to man and so both to God in the union Spirit for mind the man Christ Jesus the Creator and bringer forth of all things by his own power Now that you account man it is but the name Oli al is the man that is Gods light is the man in your little world for be you not so ignorant I tell you that in every one of you is many Creations and when the word runs in the singular it doth hold forth for the most part the man that is the soul in man Now as God in himself is the souls life absolutely free so is the soul that is Gods man or Gods strength that is the bodies life absolutely free and that is no Creation but the spirit and the body of man that is Created but the
wrote by Matthew Mark Luke and Iohn but what we have inserted is neither Matthews nor none of the rests you have not the name of many of their words and then the knowledge in the Spirit that was their light you are very far from no nearer then light to darkness the name to the thing is darkness to light Now before I begin I desire you desire of God that a clear manifest discovery may be made known unto you as the truth is in Jesus who is the light and life of the Father the buty of excelency Now know I come not to asperse the true Scripture but to take of mans invention that is inserted for the true Scripture for all is not Scripture that is written in the Bible and the new Testament for the truth in them both is but one truth and one intire Scripture now it is said that Christ his second comming is to Illusterate to the view the cleare discovery of the wisdome of God and reconcile the differences betwixt the Jews and the Gentiles which lies in the abstract of the Old and New Testament But the vail is upon both Jews and Gentiles concerning the main reconcilement of both in this main maxim that is Massah El Jah or Jehovah but to come to the beginning that is the Incarnation of Emanuel or Jesus or Christ First he was very God equal with the Father what was equal with the Father but himself for he is was and shall be one entire essence in him self before all and in product from him all came even this Son which is the true Image of the Father Now I beseech you mind the world was Christ I am the life of the world these are his words essentially for he was the maker of it and all things and let all people and Nations know that the maker of all things could not die for with him must die all the things made in heaven and earth But to begin Thus God sent forth his Son made of a woman What was that That woman was no less then the life created of himself that is to say his whole creation and he is the light of the whole creation But to come to state one entire State saith one text a woman shall compas a man now the truth in that text is this hevah alsiel agroanei selma that is thus much the strength of God taketh weakness into it this is the meaning of the Spirit in that text Another text translated is in Isaiah a Virgin shall conceive and bring forth her first born and they shall call his name Emanuel that is God with us this text I deny in the coherents additicinal thus is the words in the truth of words alsiel reme a sadi el dolorum in re fasisti nobat al dele a saous in re a pher sele Emanuel the English of the true text and the Spirits meaning is this A Virgin pure doth bring forth unto God that living life Emanuel now how can you confine these words that are a living life operating through the whole Creation in every figure now how comes this Emanuel to be inclosed or the included in the alone womb of one entire Virgin when Emanuel is the Virgin Spirit that is the life of God living in man by operation Now you add to that state to bring in your fleshly humanity Thus much a Virgin shall conceive and so bring it to the relation of our capacity that a Virgin brought forth Jesus the same say I but the manner and meaning must be truly understood Thus I say them words have a Spiritual interpretation as well as an outward signification Now mind Mary that word is perfection Emanuel is perfection also So they be two names but the whole Creation that knoweth knoweth that there is but one perfection Now I say that Mary the Virgin brought forth Jesus and I say and you in truth cannot deny but that Jesus brought forth Mary for without Christ made the Father nothing that was made Now minde this state Mary brought forth Christ Thus Mary is Christ and Christ is Mary for both Mary and Christ they be perfect names of one entire and alone thing the Caldean Tongue is thus read Ofagodo dolma maret eltah assi salos sabdi the English is Jesus the Saviour is that pure alone thing that cannot conjoyn into any one thing for he is the life of the whole O beloved of God my soul pants after you that you might be inlightned by the Spirit of truth but beloved you are so married to the dead letter of whose Translations you know not neither what Bait is laid in the mystery you know its Originality was not wrote in English and let me tell you that without the truth in that Spirit to the wisest man living the record in Scripture is but a dark riddle Was not the Iewish Rabbies as deep learned in the Scriptures in their litteral Expressions as you great learned ones are in these blind times though we may think a great light is in us when indeed it is onely a learned notional lye for all learning is the lye and it is the Whore that Iohn saw rise out of the bottomless pit for know what man can learn in the divine thing it is but to speak a curious name of he knows not what for the Spirits teaching is a turning and a converting teaching which mans words is but the dead name of that living life acting in power to the overturning all oppositions This is the Gospel that is a powerfull Substance compelling obedience unto it self Now beloved I come to let down the State to your capacity and let no man asperse my words But let them take a coppy from what is inserted that freedome I allow to all men for my inserted shall not be barred from any man and to what I have wrote I shall be willing to render an account to any How have I all along desired the Priests my Brethren to a fair despute in giving the state or taking the state from them to answer to them yet never could obtaine it which doth declare that they are in darkness and dare not come to the light for light is not ashamed but darkness and a lye seeketh shelter Now minde I beseech you my brethren for I shall put in the leave● that raises the whole foundation I beseech you minde Christ as he is stated in your Testament could not be born I say it is Blasphemy to hold it forth according to the written inserted I intreat your attentions and be ye like the noble Bereans that searched whether the things were so or no that were declared Now mind what do I seek for at any mans hands or any thing that any one of you have but blessed be the Lord that hath spared me a little of that abundance that he had committed to my trust for in my washing is my refinement Now know Christ could not be properly said to be born that was the
birth and glorious creator of all Secondly He could not be born in one that was the life and strength of all Thirdly He could not be begotten that out of him all things was produced Fourthly He could not be flesh properly for God is the Spirit of life in the whole Creation Fifthly He could not descend in flesh as we account but he is a Spirit and his decent is spiritual into our Spirits whereby he raises a Resurrection unto himself and by degrees our natural man is subjected to the Spiritual man which is Christ the Lord the life and glory of excellency in that word Ci. is implyed union Sixthly He out of whose product all was is and to come could not was not nor cannot be inclossed or included for know a living life in all things cannot be properly said to be only in one thing or womb of a woman If so then where is the life of all the rest that are and cannot be no where consistant but in Jesus their Saviour I beseech you minde I will give you your own words thus say you the same say I Jesus Christ was brought forth of the Virgin Mary and lived on earth as man doth till the appointed time of the Father then the Spirit did descend that Spirit is Jesus even that is the holy anointing above his fellowes But we have brought the humanity to be very God in the earthly form which is absolute Blasphemy For thus man to confine his maker into his owne thing made is to undeifie God and deifie himself this is Antichrist in the highest degree as to ungod God and make man God So life in this sence made death and death is made life For Ephuscos in Re ar alli-aam in re fasisty nebat agoas am sele mem derala al. The derivasy Or the English The Lord the God that dwels on high cannot nor will not be confind to mutability though all things created have their time and change yet still he that is their Changer he changeth not For his unchangeableness is their changeableness from better to better not from worss to worss but they are changed from glory to glory Beloved look into your own selves with the enlightned eye and when you see your self begin to change you change in the beholding the glory of your changer for the beginning change is the end change for our beholding is our changing us into his Image or us into himself So beloved we are changed from one glory to another degree but still wrought by the same Spirit for God who changes all is that onely one cases from himself ר and changes that cased Ϡ into himself form whence it and all things had their origini Selos in Re fasisti ex in ar Sallu vivat in reme obbisus in re ex id in per ko non olemus servat The English is this The heavenly light is God in the appearing thing and not 〈◊〉 the appearing thing and that that appeareth is not the thing and that that appeareth not that even that is the thing of things that is God the glorious creator of all things For God is a Spirit and cannot be seen Now beloved many of you would be pleased so that I would prove what I declare by that you make your God that is the called Scripture for to lay downe a point and run to fetch the Scripture as you account it to justifie what you have laid down when many times that is a lye you have laid down and that is a truth in Scripture in its owne place yet that Scripture by you is made a lye by your producing it I prove it thus For me to state a lye and produce a truth to witness or bear out my lye the truth is truth in it self yet a lye in me thus I name the name and know not the thing Again The Scripture is true I am the lye thus the Scripture is the life of God in me I sound out from that principle by my voice the acting from within that voice is a lye though it be from the true Spirit of God within For thus that that is a sound of or from the thing is not the thing and that that is not the thing is but the sound of the thing which is the lye in the whole creation Now ye Priests in England who have sounded from Antichrist and not from the true Christ you have been and are a lye Thieves and Robbers deceivers for your substance you sounded from was and is a Lye mistake me not the intent is truth Now I shall declare to the whole people that that hath not the ro●●●● in the ro●ght of Christ Is Antichrist and the false Prophet that Deceiver that Accuser that Mansla yer that Murderer that Locust that rose out of the pottomless pit Now I come to unvail and unmask your deceaveableness I beseech you all people minde know as the ro●ght is in the eternal being such are the branchings forth in the appearances Now ye Clargy in England this metaphorical expression is and will hold a large extent Alma amaret assa alui denat all●●ni Sele arkat apsi inde assisi negat alterum in Re aplaph in sab ●i el. The English The high sound from truth it self is but a lye for it is sound or name of the thing and not the true thing the sound of a lye is nothing in the senter neither any thing in the product but confution to unstable Soules Now ye Priests my brethren by creation but I desent from you in declaration and turn you to your owne weaved invention which is your Trade of Lyes in these Nations these Nations is a word proper for the Lye is but one in all Nations the word is proper in his restriction for it confines all under and into one head or Redi O how have you lift up your lying trumpers for the effecting your owne self ends O who would not fight for the Gospel and murder his brethren he could not be of God When the true Gospel you knew not but sounded out your owne lying hearts covered with that glorious name Gospel Now you have misserably ruined the Nation and is it not just you who should have been lights in goodness should be partakers in the work you have wrought Now you have declared your selves for by outward acts are the true declarations what is done in men and acted by men for as the heart is so are the declarations I speak your owne words because ye should understand me Now I shall shew you what the Gospel is and I shall leave the desidement betwixt you and me to be desided by all people First I say That the Gospel cannot be preached by another but by it self it is the declarer and declared it is the truth in the root or foundation from that rought or foundation flows forth the outward sound from the inward significant Now the truth within is the ro●ght of God but the sound outwardly is
mans voice that is the Lye it is Antichrist for it speaketh great names and it is but a sound and nothing which is but an atrie Lye fomented by mans invention But now if this be granted which cannot in truth if duly considered cannot be denyed Then Priests where are you with your Nomen that name Gospel that Whore that you have decked up by the peoples spoile if the sound from the true light be a lye I pray ye what is that ye sound from that hath no senter in truth but a lye in the root and a lye in the branchings forth I speak in tearm that you may understand what I say Now I begin to call to you for proofs from your Scripture to sustifie your actings or else you have not taught the Gospel as you call it but I will give you one hinte to help you with It is that you tax me for because I do not site the Scripture to prove my delivered or expressions by To which I answer thus That that is not against Scripture is the Scripture so saith Christ though the words do not bear the same expression know all truth is but one Scripture and all Scriptures make up being speled together makes up the expression of but one onely truth But know when I site a true maxim and would produce a Scripture to confirm it to you the Translation is false in that state and the maxim stands alone in strength being its basis is founded on the truth and it needs not the lye in the Translation to help to uphold it There is a plain reason in English but brethren ye Priests this is the light in me expressing it self for to unvail your grose lying darkness But to come to prove your selves preachers of the Gospel of Christ or Embassadours Brethren this word to ye Priests I will open from its original not by learning for I am unlearned in what I declare but by the Spirit of Jesus that hath made me the true Jew Brought forth of the Tribe of Ruben the anointed of God for the carrying backof the captive Jews from the North.

Now you are all lost and will say that no one radical doth give a sound in the word Em bas dor E is the proper English radical I say that them three כ י ר are the true radaxes in England radaxes is the proper word Resh Jod and Caph are the true radaxes being wrote in Mophes that is in the Meaish Methodical method thus ר Resh is Gods wisdome in himself in man י Jod being stated behind ר Resh is read negative et affirmative that is negation and affirmation thus God doth clusterate in י Jod through ר Resh and ר Resh combines in the insert with י Jod so that these two in their proper state stated in this insert is thus much God his wisdome now ad כ Caph that is an impead granted by all now ad כ Caph on the left hand or the left point and then she makes man for in that word radical is exact three distinct sentered in one that is God his strength and his weakness that is the Impead or Shrine in which the divine doth shaddow it self now this mystery is fetched from the radical root now close כ י ר Resh Jod and Caph then the truth is Gods strength declared in weakness which is proper in this word Em bas dor Now I come downe from the Oriental View unto the lower derivasy that you derive from this word and its figure is Emissio that word is not lattin● though it be read from that root the true significant is to know or sent for sent is knowledge● as well as the word Knowledge now the word conexsed is Bas that word in the hebrew is strength and hath not a word of conextion in any place but the word in Spanish is Basshau that is his proper sphear though used in Turky but I speak the place of the word in its proper regency by a created-dex-sela which word Basshau signifies great or high in esteem the import lies in the hebrew Bas-shau is but a declaration from Bas for Bas if truly understood doth carry in its sercumferance all that is strength and strength that is life and light doth declare it self Now Dor is read Dora now the proper significants of Dor is a generation knowledge or knowledge in generation Dora is thus much the increase of generation the word Dora is a flock a multitude it is wisdom It is strength t is beauty t is all ad but to Dor א Aleph Hebraick the● read what you will of excellencies that word Dora will bear the state So you are deseaved in the Import of the word Dorau V or ו Vau give him but the full word and grace in grace of word that is in our English Dorau but in Hebrew it is ו ד ר Vaudorau it must be so wrote to bear the state I have stated upon the maxims that is to say Dor Dorau now spel all together Embasdor that is thus much in import A true witness bearer that is the Spirits denotation in the word Embasdor Now Brethren I have found your name in its Origini I shall finde your declarative nature and examine you to the true examination for you are troubled at Theaurau John and I am troubled at you Priests that say you are the Embassadours
confirmed by miracles singes and wonders Then the Spirit did detract as of the detraction Christs death was the figure Now I will shew you what a Church Apostolical was and is the people are gathered by the Spirit of God by which Spirit they are made a seeing and a discerning people Then the Priest ought to be the discerning East and the seeing East of them people then that is a Head and Members of which temporal figure Christ and the Evangelical Spirits is the truth in the true senter in Perfection As Moses was commanded See thou make them like the pattern I shewed thee in the Mount Know he must be in the Mount with God that doth take his pattern from God in his declarative Them words were wrote long ago and now are comming forth in glory to be made good which is proper to Christs second comming in Visible power in signes and wonders of which declarative I Theauraujohn am the morning light declaring the peaceful tideings at hand Now ye Congregated Priests what a brasen whorish forehead have you put on your selves that you dare assume to your selves the hight of the Apostolical foreknowledge in that you dare act and give and deliver up to Satan Now in this you have declared your selves to be Antichrist in his full lusture in appearances as I shall open plainly before all people First I demand of you in my masters name Jehovab that you do produce your president for the matter of Excommunication for mind where that delivering up to Satan was acted forth by the Apostles in them did the Spirit reside and dwell and rest with them in power of signe and miracle which is not declared neither is in the called Church and called Priests for what is more in you and your Congregated companies then is in Antichrist or that Babilonish whore that is spoken of in Scripture For shee deceived the Nations by her Inchantments Sorceries and Witchcraft which is but thus much I intreat you minde it is this The word confined to men confined to time and confined to place I beseech you to take true notice wat Antichrist is and his Sorceries it is the confining the word to men to time and to place I pray minde but this sitacion that is stated and it will unbottome and Excommunicate all ye Priests from your trade of lies Thus prove your selves to be any more then ye have learned then so far ye are in knowledge yet no Priests for let me tel you ye know not what a Priest is Nor what that word Priest meaneth in his full import a Priest is Gods representative in righteousness that is the Image of God in man that is the Priest now let me tell you all even ye gathered Churches ye shall all be broken and God will gather unto him the holy seed from amongst you into one fold And now for men to assume to be Priests and members when indeed he is no Priest neither they all true members for know that apearances doth make members and doth not make true members in the intendant Church which I deny to you for ye are they that are deceived that have got the dead name but ye are not the true living thing yet ye will take authority to name over men that name and the namer is an abomination before God Therefore I desire you that you would but look into your owne waies and search into the bottom for it is darkness which is develish and ye have grievously sinned and blasphemed in taking and assuming unto your selves that glorious name when that is Gods glorious free gist or ●nointing upon man which is Gods inscrption wrote upon man Holiness to the Lord and from this Institution and ingraftment in the true thing which is Gods mercy Brethren by creation ye Priests ye are exhorsists that take up words and names to name over and upon the people of Christ and his Apostles ye intimate the name thinking by them names to do miracles which is but a meer forged falschood for ye your selves are but the dead name and they the Apostles were the true living thing in the true root That was I may say God in the Bottom or root from whence in strength that Voice had power to cast down and cast forth and raise up this was Gods voice from the root that overthrew all opposition but for man to name them words and the effects not follow it is but Antichrist and a lye Brethren be not deceived you are in no better case then thus you think you are rich and need nothing when in truth you are but a name and poor and blind and naked and yet know not the lye is in your right hand and hath deceived you for ye name a name that in truth ye know not But now I pass to the Apostolical effects for the effects followed the Sound or Name That was this the Blind received sight both in Spirit and Body for the Spirit is the healer of the same Body man and men were weaned from the love of the World to sell all and distribute to every necessity as the Pastors saw fit and needful But to answer this before I go any further Ye Priests are ingrosers to your selves greatness and prehemenency and you are Directives to your Congregations so to do for know the Priest ought to be the peoples Eye Then I beseech you people look what a Directive Eye you see withall do you think your eye doth see Apostolically or Hypocritically these two I leave you and the whole world to judge of Now I come to matter of more concernment that is this And behold I saw a new heaven and a new earth the first heaven and the first earth were passed away and there was no more sea And I The auraujohn saw the holy City new Hierusalem come down In Oli-el Emasanet from God out of heaven prepared as a Bride trimmed adorned beautified Selected for her Husband Now the mystery

Reigning Essence But man is weakness that is evil yet God doth take this weakness into Strength and adorne it with beauty and excellency That is thus much T is letting downe the New Hierusalem whose beauty is so excellent that it turnes all the beholders of it into it self Now I come to Ephata and open the mysterious words which are these I saw a new heaven and a new earth for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away I beseech you mind what was my brother Johns meaning in this strange and Phiriatical expression was
it of these Elementary Heavens that Paul spake of the third Heaven Or what was his meaning for the word is Translated into the singular number that is to say one heaven and one earth Now to know his and the Spirits meaning in them words I affirm he wrote that he did not understand in many places for thus it is many times the mystery is a sealed Book to the Pen-man of it The meaning of his insert was not as it is Translated for the word Sabas is read Saba and is derived from ש Shin which imports weakness Now the true meaning was and is that the first Heavens was passed away and the Earth also which is thus much if truely viewed in that alone light it was wrote It was the Jewes ceremonies Typifying the height of the Transcendent pattern celestial their Abrogating and non Residence amongst men on Earth And the Earth was that beauty and delight that man had in these Earthly celebrations of joy and rejoycing Now I state the last first and the first last Now the new heaven and the new earth was the Gospel of Jesus in power turning all things into it self that was the power that John saw should accompany the declared Truth But it is not yet made good neither could it be until time time time and an half time which is Christ his second comming to reduce both Jewes and Gentiles and their two dispensations into one radical root which is unto the Jewes Hassa Massah I leave the knowledge locked in them two words hid both from the Jewes and Gentiles till time can bear it on both sides into one radical root or Church of the first born Now for the word Sea signifies a severation or partition from one another or in some places the word Sea it is understood properly of People Now if the People be all reduced into one fold then there is no more Sea that is difference or severation this is the Spirits meaning of the new Heaven and the new Earth wherein shall dwell righteousness for they shall be reduced into one root and they shall all be taught of God that is love and they taught of God shall act in love for ever And I saw the holy City new Jerusalem come down from God out of heaven prepared as a Bride trimmed for her husband what was the meaning of this expression it was the beauty of excellency that the Spirit was beautified withall that was so beautious that it did attract to its loveliness all the beholders for the Spirit operative is let down from God to man and returnes from man to God with its effects or message and marriage taking man into union with God this is that new Jerusalem that is ever and alwaies the same in operation For God is Is is always no less nor greater but the same holy for ever O beloved were we but capable of the great change at hand O how ought we to walk in love one to another not in envy and deceit Now one word to you Churches Congregated so called do not you speak evil of the things you understand not for know the word doth hold forth the second appearing of Christ in a more visible glory then ever yet was revealed which is the bringing in the Jewes and the preaching the everlasting Gospel which must raise out of the Grave of oblivion the buried truth and abstract that and the letting downe of the Spirit these two yet one in the senter must be inserted together that all Nations may flow to the City Jerusalem for they shall say of a surety God is with his people we will go up to worship in Jerusalem the Mount of God even in Hereb O avallo hesseon andi dele selose in re averietar sebat The English O the rich mercy of God shall be letten down for the restoring of his ancient people the Jewes to cause their return to their owne land Selah selalah Selah that is Englished Praise praise praise yee the Lord these words do bear other imports as well as praise the Lord.

made in the perfection that is to say thus much God doth cause obedience in the creature and that obedience is acknowledgement of digression and that acknowledgement wrought from that root obedience which is truely Christ in the Soul for he causes an acknowledgement God is satisfied through him the Spirit of obedient man is taken into perfection or heaven Do not deceive your selves God is not like partial men for God is love mercy and compassion Now let me shew unto your view one place of Scripture so called that you and I my self in the daies when I knew not God was much troubled at that is a text translated corruptly from which place that place in the Romans doth hold coherent the text is this as you read it Jacob have I loved and Esau have I hated and this was before the Children were born now I plainly see the Sarbax or strength that that place in the Romans fetches that is implied thus much that it might stand with Gods decree according to Gods election as I have declared them words were none of Pauls But now brethren I beseech you by the mercy you have received lay by all prejudice opinions and minde exactly and directly for it is the maine asperse that lies upon the holy and just and glorious God it is laid upon him by the invention of man first I will read the true text in the truth of words to express the intire union significant which is this Eval-silo-reme-am sardet a salu o●oniel In that word odoniel is the main mistake for it is rendered addoniel the English of odoniel is the all-saving mercy of God and addoniel is God in his declarative of Justice Now I read the whole text coherent in the intendant which is this Jacob I love Esau I hate Now let me tell you that these two are in every man and woman under heaven For Jacob is Gods delight that was as much in that day or time as Christ with us for the maxims full drawn is both one for it is in truth no less then the Spirit of God in man or Christ in flesh Now Esau is the Spirit of man that was denoted in this word Esau which word in the original signifies a searcher or pryer or deceit or weakness which is indeed that Spirit that Paul saith is enmity against God or higher it is one with the Devil I prove it thus Esau was and is that searching Spirit that would pry into the secret of God which was a Spirit of disobedience that was and is to be cast forth Now Jacob is an hebrew word Scholars it is wrote with three radiaces in ם Sambah or Sameck that is the name which is denominated in the highest strength in pronounciation that is the meaning when I say such a thing is wrote in Sambah ם now the characters decyphering out this state are ר כ י Rosh Caph and Jod Now Scholars you quarrel with me because the radiaces do not give the true tone or sound let me demonstrate unto you that are the highest learned in the world in the state or sitation take notice and do you know that in the Caballesterial insertion the true knowledge in that mistery lies in the very averets or Frame in the rough materials that is knowing them in their true desendant ●●ttere thus much to know every radiace in his proper weight in his senter Original and to know him in his true original senter that is both negatively and affirmatively and then to know the true state of all his combinements in himself and with all others in their various and dubious imports and compounds this is one hint of Theauraujohn unto you learned ones though I my self am unlearned Now to show you ר כ י Resh Caph and Jod denotes Jacob it is thus much ר Resh is wisdome כ Caph doth impede that wisdome י Jod doth illustrate through כ Caph and ר Resh so to draw the consort into one entire insert it is thus much Gods loveliness in man or the Image of God in man this is Jacob for he saith the inserted he Scripture was the figure of Christ Now I have shown you Jacob Now I come to show you rough Esau he is wrote with three radiaces that are these ש ז ה Sin Zain and Hea. Now people I intreat your patience while I do define this state to our great learned ones Now you great learned Rabbies If I according to your learning had but stated ם Sambah in ש Shins stead then there had been some sound in the pronounciation and do but read the state contrary then you might have made the stated state sounded Heza and now it sounds Hezin Now I will show you the Original of them three radiaces I hold in the Hebrew term or else radax in English is the proper word Now ה Hea is weakness ח Heth is her essence ז Zaine is a figitive compound in any state according to the truth in the methodical method ש is weakness her essence lies in ם Samah or Sameck now shut these together then it is the figitive Spirit in weaknesses that is the rebellious Spirit in man which indeed is the Devil in man unto which Spirit Christ spake when he said they were of their Father the Devil whose works they would do because they were guided by that figitive Spirit that deceiver that Antichrist which hath prevailed over all Nations and now raigns in England in his predominatest spheare yea and in the clothing of holiness or holy zeal and the obeyers of him are deceived and know not that the Lye is in their right hand and hath deceived them But now to come to clear the goodness of God from that charged partiality by mans false conception of his knowledge of him I intreat you minde First I say as I have declared God could not chuse when all was wrapped in the womb of union how could he chuse when nothing was produced but himself alone in his alone and entire Essence I beseech you minde for it will if duly considered take off a great deal of trouble out of both heads and hearts of many people who lye under eruel bondage of this corrupt and false conception that God had from Eternity ordained some unto salvation and some unto damnation which is absolute Blasphemy I prove it to be Blasphemy thus that that can or will be partial it is not God for God is just and just doth not nor cannot admit of partiality then let all the world know that God will not act that himself that he commands man being his representative to be warned of which is these words spoken by God to man that is this command do just without partiality Now you will say are we not as the Pots in the hand of the Potter and may not God do what he will who shall say why doest thou so to his Maker I pray you mind I intreat you I say no the comparison is weakness and it is false I prove it
thus First God is just and he cannot be otherwaies as for man he is corrupt and must be changed to be made like unto God in Gods righteousness Now do you and all the world know that God who I know is just and all people will say God is good and just and righteous then how can this God act partiality or weakness thus if God do condemn partiality in man and if it be as you say that God did ordaine some to Salvation and some unto Damnation Is not be partial I say he is if it be true that you affirm but I say it is a Lye and false that you affirm and Father it upon Paul and God is holy just and without partiality neither did he decree any to Damnation or Salvation as you say and affirm but that point I open not yet though I know that there is nothing that is wrote but shall be abstracted into truth in which Original it was first let down But you will say thus God made us and he may do with us what he pleases I answer no for he hath but one attribute in that matter and that is just mercy to save his thing created and no more I say that God had just mercy to create the creature and just mercy to save the creature being made and no more not a little Now you in your weakness will say that I limit God or confine the holy one I say no do you but truely understand what that word just is and I tell you it will keep you in your own bounds without censuring me or judging God for know just is perfection neither admitting nor degating that is to say neither more or less but it self that is in the word just Now I tell you Jacob was ever saved and ever loved I say Iesus ever saved ever a Saviour I say Abraham ever saved I say the Image of God in man the same ever saved by reason it is one entire with it self in a derivative and will be one in Essence at the unmoddelling of every figure For man dies and the Spirit returns unto God that gave it Now I prove of Esau there shall be saved that is of that wicked or evil Spirit that is Children of the Devil nay devilish children Hos si selat-ar-al The English is this The Spirit of darkness shall be made light and saved Non quantum sed magit sed maxci sele mem The English is this Not much nor little but the thing shall be taken into rest Now I beseech you minde what the Spirit saith in this citation not much nor little but the thing what is that thing and what is the much and little The much and little is nothing but the sound of the thing in appearances the thing that is the Spirit in that much and little made obedient it shall be taken into perfection or heaven so that the disobeying Devil shall be made obedient and thus indeed and in truth do not flatter your selves for every one of us present is in our weak dark and blind condition which is guided and ruled by the Devil for his servants you are to whom you give obedience and whom do we obey until light arises in us through the operation of his powerful resurrection in us Ola olla osonno romi deleous in sesabat al ogo olemus sebat arbatar allab ak obediah sab al oli mem The English derivacie is this the darkness is made light by obedience that will in obedience is Christ the interceder for the accounted elect but the proper word is chosen and obedience is the chocie-maker in the marriage and upon that knot lock or ty doth the whole centre stand Now beloved let me intreat you but to consider one Scripture as you call it it is thus much the Elect cannot be deceived Now what that is and where it doth centre I will show you it is in these two hebrew words Oli al that is the 〈…〉 ght of God in man that is the Image of God in man that cannot detract nor be deceived This point is held by many but the truth in the thing is not understood Now minde I beseech you was Christ sent to preach unto that that could not be deceived it was vaine folly so to think and the greatest weakness so to think but Christ came to cast forth the Devil and to convert him that was cast forth now how is this doctrine to be understood Selam arba a sadit al oli mem durata sebat al oli mene seam abstrakcit oli senebassai elma avadet selose in re semmam The derivacie in English is this The thing accounted Devil and darkness and perdition is the false conception in man of and in the true thing that is God who is both light and darkness neither light nor darkness but the conjunct of both them two named semblances that is to say light and darkness he doth bring both them into one original centre which is in God himself from whence they had their issuing forth Beloved it is not what we account and conceive in our weak apprehensions but God is and that is God acting in light and dark appearances though that be Devil and darkness and afflicted for sin yet let me tell you t is light to God for that that is to us a burden t is light from him to make us like himself enlightning our Devil or darkness which is one and the same in their accounted centre I beseech you let us plead together without prejudice opinion Now minde I say there is but two Spirits good and bad that I do but say for I know beyond what is said but it cannot be with convenience born nor delivered for it is a rending maxim but I say as you say there is but good and bad light and darkness heaven and hell is not this your owne method you cannot deny then I say Christ came not to call light or righteousness but Sinners Devils to repentance these are your owne words now as I said before to teach the Spirit that could not be deceived it was vain folly that he that was all wisdome would not do for the Spirit could not be deceived that is the living life of man operative But he came to preach to the disobedient Spirits in prison Now what are these this is the disobedient Spirit in man that is the Devil in man now at Christs own preaching this Devil is alwaies cast forth but not by mans naming Christs words or the name preaching For I tell you that ye are all even ye Priests as far from preaching as light is from darkness for ye name a shadow for a substance for if man could once preach he then is Christ then he casteth forth at his voice but it is a spiritual voice from the true centre Now it may be ye would know of me what I account Christ to be I answer that the Christ that I know he is one with the Father and his declaring himself

The English is this The mercy or the saved do sing Halilujah in the living voice of Angels in the thing so you see God his mercy in creating his mercy in receiving his created that very mercy doth praise God so in short Gods mercy doth praise himself take one place of Scripture I do not bid you beleive me nor it but stand upon your owne centre the words are these Thy works praise thee O God and we will sing unto thy Majesty Now I did bid you not believe me nor it How because I would not deceive you nor have you deceived and John the Baptist my Brother spoke the same words in the import when he said I baptize you but with water but there is one that will baptise you with fire and the holy Ghost John knew he was but a sound or a voice and knew that a voice or sound hath no centre but is a composure abstracted of aire which is but a lye or nothing that is all that man can teach but the reason that I bid you not believe me nor the place cited it is because I would not deceive your manhood for the manhood will gather together a stock of names and words of queries and answers and notions which is all but a Lye till the Spirit of the Lord be come and cast forth that dark deceit and Christ erect his owne glorious light So I would intreat you becarefull that ye accept not a sound for the substance Now I know that Gods light shall unvail all these things unto you that the true truth in the thing may be illustrated for Christ coming is like Fullers-sope or the Refiners fire this I know and have selt and from the true knowledge in me I speak though it be in me and in you a truth in the heart or foul yet that you and I both and all people speak it is 〈◊〉 but Lye in the mouth for in the heart is wrote Digitus Dei that is the finger-writing by God himself you speak what is done and from that true root in the soul yet know your voice is but a sound from the thing and is not the thing and a sound is a Lye and not a substance for t is but a name of and from the thing and not the thing I instance thus a signe or picture of a man is not a man therefore in the true propriety of true speech it is no more nor no less then mans Lye Now to come to the Devil he hath a Trine figurative the celestial Trine temporal as thus the Devil envy and man make up one temporal Trine thus the Spirit in man nay mans spirit is a Devil and the strange birth that is brought forth of Devil-man or Man-devil it is Envy Now that word Orga it is a Caldee word but it is the properest word to hold in truth the coherency but thus this word Orga is envy and this evy is the Devil man in man from man and by man and against man and this is envy in man or the Devil envy man or man-devil Now to come to state the connexion that exhales and draws the conjunction together in this Trine it is thus I beseech you mind Non serte pele esse this is a Latin state though Pele be the ancient Orthodoxal word in the Greek tougue Now the English is thus much Not sure nor certaine being or thus no certaine being not sure this is a strange state but we must have stranger yet before we can find out this Apollyon that hath inbondaged us unto his strange being that is so strange that it hath no
seest the Spirit descend and abide that is he So I say to you whomsoever you see acting in love and charity I had need speak this in plaine English words that you may all hear what I mean by the sound I deliver to you it is this When thou doest as thou wouldest be done unto yet further for illustration into thy duty that thou owest unto thy Brethren feed thine enemy clothe him see none want If one ask if thou givest make his condition thine own Thus if I were as he is would I be content with the same I give unto him Now brethren I am come to sound you all in the Truth in the true Gospel Now apply my words unto my self then you will say that I said a sound is a Lye and not the thing Now I grant it every sound is a lye And now brethren look to it for ye are all but sounds and lyers if ye are not deers for the doer shall be justified in his deed Yet to come close brethren minde I beseech you in the bowels of Christ Jesus our Lord and Saviour leave off this lying in hearing and in truth be doing for ye dishonour the glorious Truth in the declarative of the true Gospel Let me tell you which to my grief I speak it God is witness upon my soul that I lye not That in many places where God and Christ was never named they walk more neer the true Gospel which is doing then ye do that have all this preaching But truely if it were in power the operation would be demonstrated in our holy walking before God the glorious Majestie of heaven ●nd earth Now I will speak in the English Tongue the English actione that raign in predominacie O how are our holy named Zelots how are they become more brutish in their lustful living then the bestial beast I am asnamed to name but the meaning you know O how doth Oaths and Drunkenness raign amongst us for which the Land shall mourn But how doth Deceit and Fraud raign even from the higest unto the lowest O how do we cry up the Gospel as though that were a cloak to cover over all our wickednesses I beseech you hear me ye are the very Mystery of Iniquity that my Brother John saw for it is but a name and no true thing And judge ye by your own doings if God by his Spirit hath preached in you I say the Gospel and Christ you deny an● are bewitched with the highest witchcraft of Satan and ye are the highest form of the devils scholars that ever he taught for his servant● ye are to whom ye obey Lay Christs Rule home and you see that it is doing that Christ commanded and not saying So now until a turning unto obedience is come ye are Lyers deceivers and the devils children Now I come to speak to the Devil and his Regencie that is in the ayre for he is said to be predominate in the ayre Sub Luna non in Patreas a Salma onari reme Emishcio veniente amorarum in a Salma aphny audaret almat alliel in re sabuisti almat on or This state is the highest that can be wrote or denoted Sub Luna in re For know the Moon is knit in the thing that thing in this state is Jehovah but to open the Mazzi sub Luna Our fore-fathers were peaceful men and in their peace they saw no Devil but we that are the weak children of the strong Parents we sees Devil Now you think the state is easie I tell you the deepest judgement in the world by literal learning cannot reach the meaning of the English for there is all that can be spoken But to this devil and to shew his Regencie it is the ayre from whence he and all things Sub Luna was abstracted Now know the Devil by his power is greater then man for man is the Minor abstract but if man and the Devil were but drawn to their full Method they are Signam Ve that is a sign of that same sign I could wish that it were understood but to come to the Devils trine in earthly appearances it is this the Devil-man or Man-devil but you will have it the Devil in man Now how could the Devil deceive man with signes and lying wonders thus wonders and miracles are two distinct appearances I prove it thus The miracle is the foundation that wonder doth rise upon and the wonder is notional the miracle is the substance Now the miracle in man is the Devils wonder thus God doth infuse grace into the soul and then the Devil is cast forth that is the Devils wonder at being cast forth Now this Wonderer is the deceit in man which is indeed the devil in man Now know that the Devils Trine hath the same expression in names and quick nay quicker then the expression from the true root But now to come to the true view of God and the Devil Gods Trine is acted in Christ and by obedience we are made sons in God Now the Devil his Trine is acted by the spirit of man and that acteth evil continually and the greatest devils scholars they are the highest in Scripture and by that they cover their own devilish ends One more when they both cease speaking and come to be declared by the Prophet in them then the true Root doth discover by his Prophet that the teaching was true which teaching is acted forth in the bowels of mercy and compassion in distributive acts of mercy to the Poor and Afflicted But when we look for the fruits that the man that hath not the Root Christ in him although he hath sounded never so high and holily yet I pray take Christs own mark to know them by that is this By their fruits ye shall know them And what fruits do the deceived bring forth I give it a small name but indeed what fruits do lyers that is notional men bring forth onely dishonour I beseech you mind for it is the ax that is laid unto the root of all trees for when ye have as it were reached the Sphere or heaven with expression of words in curious eloquent Oratory and come down to your lives and conversations why ye were Angels in expression and Devils in actions Now let me tell you the truth ye Notional people ye children of your father the devil he was a Lyer from the beginning O that them words from the beginning were but truely understood but it is not reached but unto ye devils children that is deceive not your selves every one of you that are hearers and not doers ye are the devils children for know ye are but a name and ye are not the thing comprehended in that name and so is your father the devil for he is a name and no true thing but a lye and so are ye while ye are hearers and not doers for the devil your father would be like God and ye would be like Christs people in hearing and speaking with
free mercy unto us we declare the work of God done in us unto the glory of God the Father the free giver of that free gift for brethren the Apostles must be as bad as ye hold me in this state Be ye doers of his will and not onely hearers onely deceiving your selves All hearing is but a lye that is deceiving until doing be come for the doer shall be justified in his deed and the hearer which is but a sound and a lye shall be cast forth and the doer is he and onely he that shall be received into Christ the Lord this this is the true Gospel Si Deus almorarum in re The English is Love is obeying the thing in all his commands Alui hessena amphi sele oraous-sebe-olat-al The English is this The height in love doth illustrate in the doer to the example and invitation of others O agomeon in a salma onary in reab oly odoneus O the height of love in the creature is in obedience acting the commands of the Creator Savior O alpha in cretura in re saguisse elma amaset in rem The English is this The beginning in the creature is the light from the Creator whereby he acts obedience unto the Lord his God sola alone Theauranjohn Tani the Jew Epistle 14. Wrote at Eltham O Beloved-brethren that eternal word or root it is the Gospel it is not the named word but it is the power Gospel in the soul which is not Christ in name but word God in power overturning the name and planting the thing for the true Gospel hath not nor cannot bear any name that is cypnered out in letters for it is the new creation within the soul and a spiritual work in truth of term cannot be named for a Spirit is spiritual what is the meaning of spiritual it is in import in the word as if it should be said thou Spirit art all and to all there is not nor can be no proper name at all Brethen my insert is beyond Apostolical for it is Evangelical and if you have the Evangelical eye then you see it mystery the litteral eye sees me not I am life if ye see meye are one with me nay we and as many as do see are all but one in the union for through Christ that is o-obedience we are made one with the Father in the celestial center But beloved now I come to cut your state that you are so fast stated in and upon and I shall show your deceiveable state stated and held and maintained and thus I begin I will give your state the precedencie for it was a name and that name was the written Bible and New Testament their names are called and were called so before you and I were borne that is they were called the word of God the glorious Gospel of Christ the holy Scriptures Non sabbah litteras sed sperituus devinus The English is The written letters are not holy but the intendant Spirit it is holy and holy cannot stand on Paper and Ink but in the souls of men in that figure or Image being that man he is the fairest flower in Gods field within this terrestrial Orb and as wholly stands in the soul of man which is but obedience from man unto God so wholly stands the center-bearer in the whole creation Beloved you that are taught in the Spirit know what is spoken for unto you is that teaching given to understand the mysteries of the kingdom Now brethren know that your composure of letters and names in the Bible and the New Testament cannot give true knowledge in this Mystery of the Kingdom for the mystery in the Kingdome it is spiritual and no name can define a spiritual thing for this is the reason the one is Truth the other is a Lye thus the spirit it is Truth Truth it hath a center nay it is the center of all things and all founds or names are but compositions semblances and semblances are no substances and no substance no center therefore nothing a meer Idea a meer Lye a Fancie a Shadow a Vanity Now you will say that I deny the Scriptures now I joyne issue with you your selves mine enemies you shall be judge first it is true I do deny the Scriptures as you hold them forth nor you understand not what you do hold forth that is it I affirm for the insert or Scripture in many places is true according to inserting or writing but it is made a lye by your practising This is the Scripture I affirme to be true Scriture First I hold the Scripture to be true if truely wrote you understand me not I pass now I tell you you understand not the Scripture but you make the Scripture false for the Scripture is true they admonish all to love one another then wherefore doest thou see thy brother in need and wherefore dost thou wrong thy neighbour to set up thy self The reason is this I pray you minde thy self is thy Scripture and thou hast denied the literal word of God that thou callest the word of God and the Gospel but thou deniest Christ the Lord and his commands are cast behind thy back and thou art both Scripture Law and Word and Gospel thy self and so indeed thou art the high Antichrist that is Christ the Law the Word the Gospel the Scripture all these thou art enemy unto nay a destroyer of them all Brethren out of love I intreat you out of knowledge I do admonish you be ye warned of this main condemnation that floweth forth upon you by your owne knowledge and forwardness I beseech you in the bowels of Christ Jesus our Lord and Saviour remember the words of my Brother Peter the Apostle they were these in the daies of our ignorance God winked at but now that all should come to the knowledge of of the truth Now Brethren I beseech you minde what you curious and eloqu●nt and quick witted ones have gotten by your affirming that the Scriptures as the Bible and the New Testament is the word of God now you know that the word of God abideth for ever and it is a word of power and discerning between the joynts and the marrow nay betwixt the soul and the spirit I beseech you minde It discerneth betwixt the Apostolical doctrine and the Evangelical declarative whereof and from that root I affirm that is the Evangelical expression it is beyond the Apostolical Insertation or writing but to come to the word of God I affirm it to be himself for if it be true word it is true God for God and his word are not two but one ●ntire onely one now know Gods word is of that power nay it is that power that over-turneth all things into it self Now minde I beseech you the Scripture that you say is the word of God you are a greater and stronger word then it for it calls for obedience you will not obey therefore by consequence you are a greater God then
the Scripture or the word of God which ye call or count to be the word of God Would you know the highest of what it is I tel you it is the writing Appestolical pointing to the life Evangelical of which things I am come forth to speak unto that you might not be no longer deceived by the Appestolical dead name but to be drawn to the view in light into the Evangelical living thing Now minde upon this comes your nondemnation that you know the Scriptures and hold them in so high esteem in the name as for to be the true word of God and though ye say this and dispute thus and persecute them that say not as you say I intreat you take notice you are the abominable belyers of your owne word of God as you call it for you say it is truth then why act you not in that truth againe you say you know it to be Gods word then know that if it were Gods own word and thou taught that knowledg by God who is the giver of knowledge thereby to know him to be the onely true God this knowledge turneth the receiver of it into obedience and then he sees God as he is for he seeth God with Gods owne eye that is true sight without mixture Now if God had taught thee then it had been effectual to the turning thee into obedience and know so taught so kept for where God teaches he keeps and obedience acts forth in distributives of mercie love pity and compassion for Gods teachings are alwaies effectings and from them effectings flow forth actings of mercy unto thy poor distressed brethren which is a declared seal unto the people that thou art taught by God himself and sealed with Gods seal for know so long as you are but sayers ye are Devils and lyers and when you come to be doers then ye begin to declare that God hath taught you the true Gospel as for ye and your Gospel and your word of God so long as it lies in the tongue so long it is a lye untill the tongue in that body be turned into hands and them hands be made doing distributively unto every one in necessity then I say Id east non literas sed spiritus et divitie The English is this It is not letters or names but the Spirits riches which is planted in the soul and hath silenced the lying tongue and hath caused an operation in the hands to be acted forth unto the members of the same body whereof Christ is the head if ye will be Christs disciples ye are to sell all and follow him as he hath commanded this is the word of God and you know the text then how are ye Christs servants withstanding the commands of your master but I take this for granted this is a hard saying and who can bear it I answer he that commanded it for if thou wert but out of thy devilish knowledge then thou wast in Christs strength and his strength is thy strength if he be thy teacher then no command is hard because the strength that commanded in that same strength it is obeyed But now I will show you how you are all cheated and deceived that are not in that strength it is thus ye are learners of Christ and ye are treasurers up of names and verses and texts and disputes and answers all this is learning of Christ Now I Theauraujohn say and declare this day that Christ cannot be learned nor taught for know that the height of learning is but getting the name But I beseech you brethren minde it is Gods free gift conferring the thing into the soul that is it that makes an oneness betwixt thee and himself thou hast learned the name but he is the true thing that will not nor cannot stoop to thy naming his name for the name is a meer lye without the thing which lye art thou until the thing named be come which thing is Gods free gift or Christ in the soul alas what makes all this disunion or division amongst us and variety of opinions as is amongst us at this day I will show you the reason it is because we gather unto us names and them names are variously named and so by this we our selves gather our selves into these opinionated names and gatherings together but mind we are not gathered by God himself but our selves gather our selves into selected companies and then judge others that are not as we are when indeed we are all this while but a name which is but a Ly for know if we were gathered by the Spirit of God then no division would be amongst us but an intire oneness in the union Spirit for whom and them that the Lord gathers they continue for they are centered in the alone center Now here is the difference betwixt our gathering our selves into Churches and Companies and we being gathered by Gods Spirit its gathering us thus God gathers all out of us that is all our names notions oppositions and prejudices after them weeds are gathered and bound up and cast forth then he maketh the great Allah alba that is the high white plain in us and of us and in that white plain he gathers together and plants in that plain made plaine by his own word this to be expressed in words Hevi-altiel The English is to say Behol● the great plaine of the Lords making Now this is the Lords paper fitted for him to ensigne himself in Now this plaine being thus made now comes the ensignement which in words is thus denoted in Hebrew Oli el vau ו which is in import as the words do stand relatives unto Hevi altiel The English is this The whole light in man is againset in God this is the second Viva vita that is The spirit of man is made obedient to act Gods will and from this Ensignment flowes holiness unto the Lord. Now thus gathered thus they ever stand and that that keeps them it is Degitus dei in kor allah apparan hashsha The English from this Hebraick state it is this That that keeps them it is the finger of God wrote upon and in the cleane and high table in the heart of soul of man by the high strength of God in power overturning all false writings and then ingraving himself in his holy mount for saith the Lord I dwell in the humble and meek spirit Now ye proud ones consider who is it that dwells in you for God dwels in the humble plaine soul in the dejected spirit O beloved the mourning spirit is an Angels feast O a poor pure heart is the Evangelical Throne Therefore ye poor ye weak ye nothings in your selves why are ye cast down it is because the Spirit of God doth rest upon yee and in that glory that now you see your selves nothing then are yee the happiest happy for your Iow nothingness in your selves it is Christs riches in you that hath made you so and ye are clothed with all and that all

for time is and it is time and for a nothing that is man is nothing and for nothing to state a time in a center it cannot be for the center is time and time is the center here is wisdom to the wise and understanding to the prudent time is time is not not is time and time is not now times are two and times are one not two times but one and that onely one In trinas in re that is three in one thing O Beloved if ye perceive any thing in me that is light know that it is this That I know the Land shall be destroyed therefore I beseech you that fear the Lord humble your selves and walk low in love for the time of vengeance hastens O a fire is coming I tremble to hear thereof therefore walk humbly before God that in the evil day you may escape as brands plucked out of the fire Brethren what I say unto you I practice in my owne person for abstenance and sorrow are my companions crying to God for my peoples gathering and my complaint unto my God is this O Lord thou hast made me naked before this people and hast caused terrible things to be declared when I was not my self but know that mad men so mad fools your owne proverb is oft-speak truth I have cryed in the streets I have declared what I have received yet who among you is departed from his evil waies my heart panteth and my spirit faileth and is weary because I see such small turnings unto God by obedience O Beloved that you were not more stupid then the beasts in your understanding you might easily perceive that if there be any God as by many mens and womens living they declare that there is not else they would not nor durst not do now as they do in this time of deceit O shall not the Lord throw downe his wrath in his fury and anger upon this hypocritical this all-tongue Nation But O people deeds of mercy is not amongst ye for the Lord hath looked from heaven and behold nothing but oppression is found in her Now know O England that thou art but a scourge to others to be scourged for scourging O ye that fear the Lord happy are ye for when destruction comes upon the World then even then is the time of your rejoycing for the righteous shall rejoyce when he seeth the vengeance coming Now we that fear the Lord are now dead but in afflictions then we live so beloved unto you poor dejected ones am I sent with the Olive-leaf of peace even unto you who are the precious ones in the sight of the Lord though in low esteem in the world nay necessity so overpowreth you that many of you want bread O this wanting bread in our Nation doth declare we live but in the name Gospel for refreshing the poor and releiving the needy this is the Gospels true thing for which my soul mournes in secret to hear and see the name Gospel cryed so high and doing which is the true Gospels not owned amongst us O what a dishonour is it to the Gospel that amongst us care is not taken to supply the poor Now I will show you the reason it is this every man being a Gospel unto himself that is the cause I prove it thus if thou did once owne Christs words to be Gospel then thy self Gospel is cast forth but thou ownest thy owne Gospel that is thy owne self-will to be the truest Gospel and so Christ and his Gospel is cast forth for thou sayest Christ shall not reign over thee by thy actions in plain English words thou declarest no less therefore brethren I beseech you every one of you free your selves from this high deceit and set to your seals that it is true for doing is a seal unto others what the Lord by his Spirit hath done in thee try whether thy walking and actions be ruled by Christs prescript or writing which thou callest the word of God now if thou actest contrary thou art word and Gospel and God unto thy self for his ye are to whom ye obey one thing I will state clear to you wise ones the point is this you say that the Bible and the New Testament they are the word of God I say you belye them in saying so for know if Gods word were of no more power and force in it self then it is in the insert or Testament I say you are a greater word and a God then that is I prove it thus that that you say is Gods word commands obedience unto something you in actions act contrary how can this be Gods word that cannot over-power you I pray you minde Now you are Gods word for the greatest strength that is Gods word and your strength commands that that is there commanded and you act freely your owne will now let all judge whether that you be not a greater word then that you calls Gods word nay you make it a Lye and become a God unto your selves Let all people judge now for you to acknowledge that writing to be Gods word and you are not reformed by that word I tell you you make God a Lyer thus God saith that his word is life and you say you know it to be so why then knowledge in truth of that word it is life unto all that it is commanded unto but it is death to thee because thou hast taken the bare notional name and unto thee was the word never sent in power which is the communicated thing Now let me speak unto you here is the difference Christ saith I am the door the way and the life Christ saith I am the eternal word now what is this unto any man until Christ be become thus unto us I tell you we are before he come and abide with us we are unclean spirits witches and sorcerers deceivers for we would climbe over another way then Christ hath taught us I am the door saith Christ but your actions answer for you you will go in another way that is by the power of your owne strength This is every namer and national gatherer in the whole world which is cast forth at Christs owne appearing and then all that you counted gain unto you is become loss unto you through the excellency that is in Christ Jesus our Lord. O that ye did but know what this Lord Jesus Christ is or that you could bear my knowledge in the thing El massah arkad axsi sephraim aspah salma oni pele labat arbattha koersim semar axsi The English to what it will bear God the Saviour is onely strong and omnipotent in every thing and he alone is the restorer of himself in the whole creation in appearances for this end
were they created that they may be preserved through destruction nothing can be saved until it be destroyed for destruction is absolute salvation by Christ Now hear a word O England that is this I know God is bringing about Zach. 10.3 My wrath was but I know now it is kindled a gainst the Shepherds and he will visit the Goats but the Lord will visit the house of Judah and will make them as his beautiful horse in the day of battel the 4. verse 5. and 6. and so on for this work am I called and sent for the proclaiming Israels return for the Lord will build her againe that he hath destroyed and plant her in the magnificentest beauty of beauties as is thus much the Jewes and Jerusalem shall be the exalted beauty out of all beauties into one beautiousness in royal magnificence and adorative glory Now ye Jewes my Brethren be ye doers of works of mercy which doth declare the strength of the Gentiles Gospel being planted in your living souls and do not as the Gentiles do that make a great sound of the name Gospel in the tongue but in heart and life they deny the power and they now Crucifie Christ as the Jewes did in times past for the Gentiles name a name and yet they abhor the thing that is included in that name but they are become a Law unto themselves in that they have abhorred the Gospel and departed from it in its power Zachary the 12 Chapter verse the second and so forward these insertations of the Prophets are my witness and the Jewes strength for to uphold their drooping spirits Beloved had you but eyes to see my sphear I move in you might see the Appostolical body for to be thick clay and ponderous to that Evangelical lusture I recead from the appostolical doctrine was light in the evangelical part of it but then he that views it he must have the Evangelical eye but know that the Jews Ceremonies were beautious for a time and then vanished the Appostolical beautious for its time which time is ended they were both beautious in their times and now ended but now comes the Evangelical living of which they both were but dark types yet in them daies splendorous now know if God should cease from varieties he must cease from being God but he is various in his creation and the● varieti● is the declarer of his intire union there lies the Mystery Now ye that be talking and prateing Gentiles we that are in grafted Jewes that is Gods strength hath subdued us unto himself we are doers of deeds of mercy unto them that are in necessity and not onely literal hearers thereby deceiving our selves as ye literal notional Christians or Gentiles are for not he that beareth my words but he that doeth my will even that very man or woman it is Christs Disciple on Disciples therefore none come to hear me more unless ye intend to make a true spelling that is doing what you hear commanded for ye are mockers of God by your so hearing and not doing better had it been for you that you never had heard then having heard a command commanded in them words you hold to be a truth and yet you disobey this truth now let me tell you your condemnation is just and cut of your owne mouth against your owne self it must and will pass I have heard this word it is truth it commands righteousness thou actest wickedness here is thy judgement Now Brethren had God come unto you first in the power of his word you had been enlightned within the soul and that light is strength to obey if by Christ it be taught but you are so quick you will come in by the name Gospel and your owne bestial reason must be your owne guide and so you are guided in your own strength from Christ unto the high Antichrist now who is an Antichrist even he that denies the Father and the Son who denies the Father and the Son even all that obey not the commands of Christ which doth bring us unto God in union so you may plainly see and by that sight save a great deal of time that you spend in study that your braines are and have been imployed in about Antichrist for if not Christ then Antichrist So now look no more for Antichrist abroad or at Rome For thou O man in darkness art Antichrist the Devil the false Prophet the Socerer the Witchcraft the Lyer this is every man in his dark state and we thrust it off one unto another and one Country unto another Nation when indeed it is Antichrist his trade to keep our eyes without lest we should fee his deceit within Antichrist is the Whore that wipes her mouth as it is said saying with an Amazonian face I have done no wrong when she hath acted what she can Beloved thus dark are we being but the mystery of iniquity Brethren Jeremiah the 8. and the 7. verse these words even the Stork in the aire knoweth her appointed times and the Birds their season but my people knoweth not the judgements of the Lord read the 8 verse and so unto the 12 verse adde to this Ezekiel the 5 chapter and the 5. verse so unto the 12 this was a sentence against Jerusalem but now I say and know Tremble Tremble Tremble O England for thy decree it is sealed and from the sealing the declaring is gone forth to warn the people that Destruct on is at the very door therefore I beseech you say it to heart let every one cry unto God though we are neither shall be delivered yet thereby we may be humbled that when the Iudgment is come it may finde us not proud but humble There is an humbling in man as Ahab humbled himself and went softly it prevented Iudgment but I fear that you are rocked in the strength of pride and you and your pride will fall together how many of you have made a covenant with death and you will not be released that evil it is a proud heart that is the seal of deaths covenant be watchful that a proud heart be not found in thee then thou art fast tyed in deaths covenant Revelations the 6 and the 5 verse And the seal being opened I saw a black horse and he that sate on him had ballances in his hand Beloved I am carried thus from one text to another but here I stand for it is my center place or place center that is for to weigh the substance out of and from the seeming substances for know my work is to weigh both the thing and the name and to give honour unto the thing and to curse the name for it is one with the figure my brother Jesus caused would you know who or what Jesus cursed It was the flourishing Figtree that was a show of a goodly good Tree afar of to dark eyes but to come close to the figtree and you my brethren then the figtree are ye and ye are the
figtree for ye are full of beautious leaves of expression but come to the fruit ye are Devils in action Now you count the expression strange but it it is true therefore to be owned by you if you will do the Devils work be not ashamed of your Masters name now here you will use my owne method and say that the name is not the thing and that the Masters name is not the servants thing Now comes the plaine definition thus God is light that light is love now man in love he is in that light and that light is Christ and Christ is God now is not this a clear apparant truth Now as God is light the Devil he is but darkness to that light now in darkness is hatred and hatred is the Devil and hate being in man predominate he is Satan or Apollyon but these words will not carry the intention of our English word Devil if we would but let that word stand in name but we will have it thing and so we are one with that Apollyon or Abaddon which you say is the English Devil but the intendant out-runs the name quite out so brethren God and man make a declared truth Devil and man make a declared Lye Now what is that Devil and man for why it is to set forth the glory in created appearances though the Devil was never created nor made it is we that make him a creation and judge ye how great creators we worms and dust are things are greater in esteem then many times in truth they are But I pass now let me tell you the balance is come to weigh this Nation and Mene Tekel is found upon its basis or in hebrew Orbus kabus all ah The English is Thou art not weight in the highest ballance or in the center weight thy people are a vaine people trusting in the name but the knowledge in the thing is not in them Bealah arki peal ardi neset doni The English is this Thou art high in name but in me saith the Lord thou art not found for then love was the connexing thy joynts or members one to another but thou art Quas in tiby allah pealah anvi pean ardi dele mem The English is this Thou art for thy self in every man and self is exalted and Charity cast forth or is made a vagrant amongst us to our shame is this motto inserted upon us by the Spirit of God this saying is strange to you but it is true and you will feel it true if you belong to light as I have found so shall many more to their sharp sorrow but their after joy O Beloved I mourn for you I strive with God for you beseeching him to inlighten you in all spiritual knowledge and understanding blessed be the Lord I can say in a safe conscience as ever Paul could say I have not coveted after no mans gold or silver nor desired any thing of any man or of any of you but onely that life part that my soul thirsts after to see it gathered into union in the celestial center O beloved my soul is ravished with the deliteful delite for when I am poor then am I rich in him who is my riches that is Christ the mercy and strength of God Brethren ye and to ye onely I speak that are passed the Apostolical teaching and are come into the Evangelical living Allah all ah allah hoei selma amaseret one peon alpha haggarim semam in re ex al olo on The English of this hebrew state is to what the English will bear O the light the light the light of peace is in the Evanglical thing that is in God when we have passed these beggerly rudiments Apostolical which are dead names pointing us to the Evangelical living in God for if Christ be come you are no longer in the dead name but you are risen in the life of Christ into his body that is Evangelical Minde the Apostles words We are dead and our life his hid with Christ in God Behold here is the greatest mystery in the world men living speaking the height of the Gospel as you call it and these men are dead the same condition is every true new-borne man and woman in for our life is not in our selves nor in this body of dung nor in things below that is to say these beggerly rudiments or elements motional but our life is in God the Evangelical caller and gatherer of his people into himself and for this cause God did send forth his Spirit in men to converse with that self same Spirit in men that their conversing by his power are turn 〈…〉 to converting unto this end God made some Apostles some Pastors some Ministers and teachers some Evangelists and all was but the union of one Spirit in its efficacious varieties So now Brethren the same work is God a bringing about now in England and all Lands and it lies included in these Prophetick words of expression I the Lord will gather her I have cast 〈◊〉 off and she shall rebefore me as in the daies of old Brethren this is the gathering the Church of the Jewes for whom I The auraujohn and the rest of my brethren the Lord hath made fishers for to gather the people into a figurative figure of the Evangelical building therefore the foundation of the Jewes Church Evangeli 〈…〉 is laid here even in this house and the Lord my God adde unto it dayly thy increase of blessing the place may remove but the people cannot be shaken for God the Lord he is the Evangelical center so this meeting hath been the gathering the Church of the Jewes and the Jewes Church is the true name So you that are ashamed of the name of the Jewes see me nor hear me no more Sebat allah am R. Theauranjohn Taniour high Priest Epistle 15. Wrote at Eltham DEarly beloved Brethren God is love and know that he that acts in love doth act in God Now I beseech you mind how can it properly be said for man to act in God Thus it is if radically understood the Spirit of God in man being predominate that Spirit is in union with God in Essence though it be for a time a derivacie Now the Querie would be resolved thus God is love how is God love Thus God is love His fulness is a filling every want and necessity in the whole Creation that is by distilling acts of courpassionate refreshments to every distinct of his or of himself Now let me speak thus man is the Image of God in the earthly form not of the earthly form the distinction lies in these two words IN and OF Now beloved to come close unto the matter of the main concernment it is this that if you are not in God then you are in the Devil Now know that there is but light and darkness in the whole Creation now God he is the light the death or darkness is the called Devil Now what is God I answer
but to look into the center I mind not what is said but the true truth is in truth the thing is and now blessed be the Lord my God he doth increase my understanding Now mind I come to shew not what is written but what in your hearts you hold a zeal for the same I ever did since God gave me light and it is this the Scriptures and the Gospel for the defence of them through the strength of my God I would lay down my life for them Now I will show you that in terme that I may say that I and you at this day are so zealous for that is the Scriptures so called now the God that you ignorantly worship him show I unto you and I beseech you take special notice even you that are but notional and you likewise My brethren that are zealous but not according to knowledge as through Gods goodness I shall make appear Non est nome sanktus in re sabat akzi a malet oli in rem medad alphi sele arbat al. The English from this Hebrew state and yet both Latine Greek and Arraback and Caldee all these tongues to make a true harmonious assent in consent But lest you learned Rabbies should contend with me that am unlearned onely English I have and that no man worse but I will give you one hint of knowledge and learning denoted unto me by the Spirit and what spirit let the declaratives of it self speak and the obedience and actions of my life speak forme and so all judge Look you be clean within and then you judge righteous judgement But now Scholars know that the major includes the minor so the major in that state is Hebrew wrote in Kof ק that is the second strength in writing Now let me tell you Schollars I will but state three Hebrew words and I will make their majority carry the state of five lines of Latine stated but they will not carry so much in no tongue for know the nearer you come to the center which is the Hebrew the more you disearet the weak connexions dependancies For know that the Arraback and Caldee and Syrriack and the Muscovite in their original center are as it were in the edge or verdge of the Hebrew Now you will say that the majority of them languages is Hebrew it is granted but write you in any one of them languages it is not Hebrew So though the Hebrew her Regencie be over the languages yet her predominacy may be eclipsed by another tongue when she is but an adjunct in the state or sitation for know that in all tongues and languages there is an union consent and assent in a composed composure in their coherents and the truth flowes from the head to the foot and ascends from the foot to the head as the rivers from the sea to the sea their centred center But this knowledge in truth of knowledge by man is not to be understood and none but the Spirit of God whose conveyances is in and through all tongues into one language that is the scriptum est Now brethren your long patience is your expectation of what is Scripture I beseech you mind I cannot come when I would to open the state or citation out of the tongues though my desire is as great as yours can be ye though I am weary I cannot leave writing the mysterie that lies in the Hebrew state last cited when I thought to have open'd it when I named the english I could never come at it till now non est nome sanklus in re Now I beseech you mind the english of the forecited state The name is not the holy thing now I read negatively The holy thing denyes any name in truth of thing but is and is in truth hath no name Now mind since the world was there was not a greater denotation by the spirit of the truth in God than this Now there is another citation in the same Hebrew state which is this The true Scripture 't is the divine life of God in the soul and it is written by and with Digitus Dei the spirit finger or finger spirit by God O that destroying of it wounds and destroyes sense for according to our Translation digitus Dei the finger of God that word of undoes the state Now I shall show you how your zeal is evacuated and how you come misled concerning that you call the Bible and new Testament calling them the Scriptures or the word of God the Word was made flesh and in that flesh there is a Table and a Book that even that God doth write upon that is Holmess to himself But to come to speak to you brethren even ye blind persecuting Zealots truly I love you all and pity all for ye cannot do right till light be come Brethren I demand of you from whence zeal proceeds if it be true zeal in light it proceeds from that scriptum est that is from that inward and inmost Vail unvailed though you know it not Now know but this that nothing without can give life to your zeal within but it lives in it self and from that small appearance within to the notional man he as he is sees outwardly and he catches at the glimmerings within and through that false conception he states all without upon mans writing or the Signam manum or sign of a mans hand of mans spellings so man not drawn into obedience to the spirit of God within he builds upon outward words and names in books without Now I beseech you mind did any of you receive remission of sins by mans preaching you and I my self did think so thus such a man is a man of God and he is able to turn any man now how was that because Gods power within thee did begin to unfetter thee for it was Gods spirit did begin inwardly to illustrate and thy resurrection and walking was from that light within and thou accounted that it was done by man or hearing or reading here thou wast a greater Idolater then before now here thou sacrificest to man and in this act thou makest and accountest him thy God converter or the Bible or Testament were thy Idols when indeed and in truth it was onely the alone descent of Gods mercy conveyed by his spiritual light arising in thy soul that caused thy awaking from the corruptible estate of death and darkness Now mind I desire to know of you my brethren whether the knowledge doth lye outwardly in objects declared or in the inmost or inward understanding in the spiritus that is in the spirit in that word θ in that import it is a Greek word and it doth denote God his Spirit that is θ spirit and you read it the spirit not understanding the import of the word Now if that be granted that cannot be denyed if duly considered that the understanding lives and lies within the inmost spirit why doth not man act alwaies right and in truth of zeal I answer
