A BRIEF DISCOVERY OF God's Eternal Truth AND A Way opened to the simple hearted whereby they may come to know CHRIST and his Ministers from ANTICHRIST and his Ministers With a WARNING from the Lord to all people that do name the Name of Christ to depart from Iniquity Written in the Inquisition of Malta by a Servant of the Most High called KATHERINE EVANS London Printed for R. Wilson 1663. A brief DISCOVERY of Gods Eternal Truth THus saith the Lord Let every one that nameth the Name of Christ depart from Iniquity for the day cometh and now is that the Name of Christ will be dreadful and terrible to all workers of iniquity and God the Father hath committed all Power in Heaven and in Earth and Seas also to his Son Jesus Christ and hath raised him in Power and great Glory in thousands of his Saints to convince the world of Sin of Righteousness and of Judgment that the Prince of this World may be judged and cast out for he shall never have any part or portion with the Heir of Eternal Life and Salvation who hath Power to judge and to justifie and to condemn or to save to scatter and to gather to break to pieces and to bind up that which is broken to pieces and he will establish his own Spiritual Government Righteous Rule and Pure Holy Worship to the ends of the Earth and the gates of Hell shall not prevail against it for whatsoever he hath purposed shall surely come to pass and his Decree shal stand and Wo wo wo to every one that doth lift up a hand against any of those that the Lord God doth send forth in his Name in this the Day of his Power to preach Glad-tydings to the meek or do form any carnal weapon against him in his Anointed thinking to disinherite him who is possessed Heir of all But the time doth hasten that the Lord God of Power will exalt his Princely Scepter over all Scepters Thrones and Dominions Kingdoms and Countries and none shall be able to prevent him or resist his mighty Power Hear ye this O all ye People upon the face of the Earth who are called Christians or do call your selves by Christ's Name both Kings and Princes Emperors Nobles and mighty men of the Earth by what name or title soever ye are called high or low rich or poor for our God is no respecter of persons but every one that feareth his Name and worketh Righteousness is accepted of him Wherefore it chiefly behoveth every one of you to turn your minds within to the Light in your Consciences that convinceth of all Sin and makes manifest every evil deed be it done never so secret the Light will discover it It is a measure of God's free Grace given to every one to profit themselves withal and search examine and duely consider how you come to have right or title to Christ's Name or what it is that maketh a Christian for every true Christian is an Heir of God and Joynt-heir with Christ For as in Adam all die so in Christ shall all be made alive Now you know that God created Adam at the first in a pure perfect state of Innocency his mind and soul in his own Image and likeness which was Light and Life and placed him in the Garden of Paradise a place of eternal blessedness to all that do obey the Light and God gave Adam dominion over all the creatures that God created for the use of man and blessed them unto him in that state of Innocency and bid him eat of the fruit of every tree of the Garden but the tree of knowledge of good and evil that was good too but not for food And the Lord said unto Adam Thou shalt not eat of the fruit of that tree for in the day thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely dye Adam did not stand in the Counsel of the Lord but turned from the Light and hearkened to the Woman whom the Serpent beguiled and did eat of the forbidden Fruit and so disobeyed the Commandment of the Lord God and fell from that state of Blessedness into that state wherein all things are an utter curse unto him and unto all in that state of disobedience eternally but the just and wise and holy Lord God whose mercies are above all his works did promise that the Seed of the Woman should bruise the Serpents head There are but two seeds the Seed of the Woman and the seed of the Serpent Now this was the way which the pure and wise and perfect Lord God did find out in himself to recover Man out of the Fall again through the everlasting Covenant of the promised Seed of all blessedness The Promise of God was not unto seeds as to many but unto the Seed as unto one In Isaac shall all the Kindreds of the Earth be blessed The Promise of God which cannot fail was only to the Seed of faithful Abraham And Paul saith If ye are Christs then are ye Abrahams seed and heirs to the Promise Wherefore every one of you in Christendom may do well to turn in your minds to the Light of God in your own Consciences and try your selves and see whether you have received the true righteous Seed or are born of the pure and perfect Spirit of Christ Iesus yea or nay the Light will not deceive you but deal plainly with you and make manifest unto you all that ever was or is within you And he that is in Christ hath the witness in himself so that he need not go forth to seek after him or to ask the way to Sion for I am the Way the Truth and the Light saith Christ and he that followeth me shall not abide in darkness but have the Light of Life and He that hath not the Witness in himself is in darkness and hath not received the Light of Life the Spirit of Christ and He that hath not the Spirit of Christ is none of his Then what profit hath anyone to have the Name of Christ and out of his Nature The Nature of Christ is altogether pure perfect holy and upright meek humble sober loving merciful tender-hearted liberal in all good long-suffering and ready to forgive and willing to bear the contradictions of sinners and the rebukes of the vile sons of men and did lay down his Life for to save them that hated him and were and are Enemies to his Cross And all that are in Christ ought themselves to walk as he walked or else how should they be known to be born of the true Seed of God for where the Seed of the Kingdom is sown and received into good ground in an honest heart it taketh deep root and bringeth forth fruit answerable to the Seed in some thirty in some sixty and in some an hundred fold that God may be glorified for herein is my Father glorified that ye bring forth much fruit saith Christ speaking to them that were called by his Name and were his
