of the Indignation of the Lords Judgment If Iudgment first begin at the house of God what will become of them that obey not the Gospel of God for if the Righteous scarcely be saved where shall the Wicked and Ungodly appear Now for some help and light for the understanding of them that do not know the Mystery of Iniquity and that spirit that doth generate it here as aforesaid the spirit of Antichrist is that spirit in every one that doth profess Christ Jesus in words but doth not possess him in life and power and such are they that are making Images and forms and likenesses without and call it by Christ's Name and say it doth represent Christ when none can make his Likeness nor bear his Image but those that are created anew in Christ Jesus and born of the same Spirit The righteous Image or Form of Christ is the perfect Life of Innocency and the pure Spirit of Meekness and an upright heart of true Humility as it is written Upon whomsoever you shall see the Spirit of the Lord descend like a Dove and abide upon him this is my beloved Son in whom I am well pleased You all know a Dove is an innocent harmless creature and so are all God's Children which are sanctified in the undefiled womb of God's second creation where the first Heaven and the first Earth is passed away and new Heavens and a new Earth are witnessed wherein dwelleth Righteousness for evermore and he that is called the Son of Perdition is the Man of Sin in every particular that steals away the heart and draws out the mind from the true invisible God and sets it upon earthly objects and visible appearances The glory of the world that doth fade and vanish away as the smoak in the eye and the painted harlot is the fallen wisdom that is comprehended in the earthly mind carnal understanding and airy spirit inventing and devising how to deck and beautifie her self with the glory of this world and outside shews to get her self a name over all the Earth and calls her self holy pure and spiritual that all people may fall down and worship her painted image and so the wind of her spirit goeth forth and overchargeth the hearts of the people and corrupts them and when the heart is corrupted it conceiveth lust and when lust is conceived it bringeth forth sin and when sin is finished it bringeth forth death The wages of sin is death and the Scarlet-coloured Beast that doth uphold the adulterous woman with all her allurements upon whom she sits is that beast-like will of or in man that is not subject to the Will of God but hath received power to exalt his horn even to the Host of Heaven for the cleansing of the Sanctuary and purifying of the Temple and for the tryal of the Faith of God's Elect that the power of God may rest upon them and so they come to be approved in the sight of all and herein our God is glorified honoured and renowned over all in purchasing to himself a holy Kingdom through the blood of the everlasting Covenant in the faithful-hearted that do follow the Lamb through great tribulations according to the Scriptures Every man out of the Covenant of God is bruitish and that spirit which doth exalt it self over the consciences of any people to compel them by a tymnnous Law to worship according to his will and in his way without any Commandment or Precept from the Lord that is Lucifer which the Lord God will cast down to the bottom of Infamy and will do unto him as he did to proud and lofty Haman as the Spirit of the Lord hath manifested for God and his Word are one and his way to the Kingdom is but one and he never compelled any with camal weapons or any visible thing to worship him And whereas it is said he sent forth his servants to compel them that were in the streets and in the high-wayes to come in by the powerful preaching of his Word of Life and Truth that did limit and bind that in them that did rebel against him and so he drawed them after him in love and so he doth at this day Praises praises to his holy and blessed Name for evermore Amen And the false Prophet is he that cryeth Lo here is Christ and Lo there but Christ foretold of them saying Many false Christs would come saying Lo here and Lo there but believe them not go not forth by their fruits you shall know them And these are they that for advantage will cry Peace peace while ye are unsaved from your sins and so with good words and fair speeches deceive the hearts of the simple and smoothly draws them after him in the broad way that leads to the chambers of death and destruction and in their high places they will tell you you must not be drunk nor lust nor envy nor covet nor live in pride nor any such evil things when they themselves are wholly guided and led by that same spirit which is the very rise author yea as I may safely say the father of all manner of uncleanness and evil concupiscence and so though they do speak good words it is but in imitation because it was the practice of the Servants of the living God so to do yet being out of their Life they can never convert any into the Truth but their spirit doth beget the same form in the Hearers as is in the Teachers for such Seed as they sow such Fruits they do reap of all manner of unrighteousness and these be they that will go about to limit the Spirit of God and make the people believe none ought to speak in the Name of Christ but the Wise and the Learned and them that have received Gifts of Men to Preach but Christ doth ordain his Ministers and gives them Gifts both Male and Female yet they say Paul would not permit of a Woman to speak in the Church it is true Paul would not permit of a woman to speak in the Church no more do not the Quakers neither do they permit a Woman to speak in the Church nor a Man that is born of a woman but he that is born of God whether in Male or in Female let him speak freely as his Father giveth him Utterance Let him that doth not understand come into Christ's School and learn Paul said That if a Woman did pray or prophesie with her Head uncovered she did dishonour her Head if a woman might pray or prophesie with her head covered it 's very like she might do it in the Church assoon as in another place But Paul nor John neither would not permit that Jezabel that painted Harlot should speak in the Church who hath painted her self with the Saints Words but out of their life she must keep silence in the Church yea verily the Power is made manifest in this the Lord 's present day that will shortly stop her mouth and all her
