A85143	Light risen out of darkness now in these latter days. Shewing the dark ways and worships of the ministry of Antichrist now in these apostated times, which is perilous, as is foretold of often by the Holy Ghost that spoke through Paul, and now is fulfilled in these latter days, 2 Tim 3. Thus saith the Lord, Arise Sion, and thresh with a sharp threshing instrument, and shine, for thy light is come, and the glory of the Lord is risen, and is arising, and Jerusalem shall be a burdensome stone to all nations, now that Christ is unto his people both the light and glory thereof. Wherein something is written in reply to a book that was set forth by the dry and night vines in and about Beverley, who scornfully nicknameth the people of God, in reviling and falsly accusing them, and calleth them Quakers, in and about York-shire.

to all in that nature Revel 22. This doth to our discernings tend to the establishing of the sayings of them who speak after their trembling fits with an extended voyce Priests as the Oracles of God and leaves us not the liberty of the commended practise of the Bereans to try the sayings of an Apostle by the Scripture Acts 17.11 Your discernings are exceeding carnal Reply that have professed your selves so long to be Ministers of the Gospel and have no tryer but by the Scriptures which are without and are carnal not knowing the same Spirit that spoke forth the Scriptures which was before any Book or writings were and searcheth and tryeth all things even the deep things of God 1 Cor. 2.10 But natural men such as you are receive not the things of the Spirit of God for they are foolishness to them and so are they to you and your discerning is earthly the salt having lost his savour and so you have lost your discerning that hath it without you and not within as the Saints had and have 1 Cor. 2.13.14 But you cannot know the things of God or workings of the Spirit by your carnal reason because they are spiritually discerned And herein you are carnal sottish and brutish and know nothing of the same power that was manifested in those that spoke sorth the Scripture who had the Spirit and the discerning And you that are not acquainted with those trembling fits that you do despise in others are not acquainted neither with the Voyce Power nor Oracles of God therein you do shew forth your ignorance in the work of the Lord and that you are ignorant of the same spirit and power that was in them who had the Oracles of God and spoke them forth as they did that witnessed forth those Scriptures in whom the power of the Lord was manifested As Isaac Gen. 27.37 Moses Heb. 12.21 David Psal 38.8 c. Psal 119.120 and Job 4.14 Chap. 21. ver 5 6. Chap. 37. ver 1. Jer. 23.9 Hab. 3.16 Dan. 10.7 8 11. Ezek. 12.18.26 Chap. 16. ver 32. Chap. 10. ver And Paul Acts 9.3 4 5 6. and Philipians 2.12 13. and the Corinthians 2 Cor. 7.15 c. These and the rest did witness who had the Spirit of God Rom. 8. and the Oracles of God and spoke them 1 Pet. 4. But you do shew that you neither know thepower of God which is the salvation nor the gift of God which is the discerning as they had that spoke forth the Scriptures but your discerning may carry you to that in Acts 17. And see your selves to be as the unbelieving Jews were which were moved with envy at the publishing of the truth by the Spirit that was in Paul as you are by the Declaration of the truth by the same spirit that layeth open your deceits now as his did then and your hearers that have been kept in blindness by you and such like may search the Scriptures as the noble Bereans did and so see you to act the same things that the Jewish High-Priests Scribes and Pharisees did which were enemies to Jesus Christ then as you are now therefore repent and give over deceiving the people The simple Priestr you say believe every word Prov 14.15 but in this case you say that you have learned that the Spirits of the Prophets are subject to the Prophets c. You are wise in your own conceits Reply and know nothing of the simplicity that is pure Being wise to do evil but to do good you have no understanding And you never yet learned the lesson of self-denial nor know nothing of the true Prophetical Office of Christ by divine inspiration in you but have stollen words to speak of and say you have learned but it is but to steal the words of others to trade withal and so are theeves and robbers John 10. that Christ speaks and you never knew the immortal word which was in the beginning for in its arise it will shake down all the loftiness of man dividing asunder both joynts and marrow crushing down all-deceits and deceivableness which you live in and are acted and guided by deceit and so are learned and taught of the Devil the doctrine of deceit But he that doth not righteousness is not of God nor he that loveth not his brother but is of the devil as you are 1 John 3.10 And are Prophets of the deceits of your own hearts as the false prophets were and are subject to the will of the Devil and to deceive the simple but your condemnation will be the greater for the true Prophets you know not but steal their words as the false Prophets did to trade withal but the Lord hath discovered you and laid open your deceits and deceivableness how you lie in wait to deceive the simple and would keep them back from receiving the simple naked truth as it is in Jesus but it is the simple that he doth teach Psal 19.7 8 9. And they recaive his words which are pure and need not your additions nor inventions to gloss them over withal Prov. 30.5 6. Deut. 4.1 2. But all the plagues that are written in the Book are to be added unto you that are not in subjection to the true Prophet the Spirit of truth but are subject to add your own inventions which the plagnes are to Revel 22.18 But that they intend to magnifie their writings and Epistles above or into an equality unto the holy Scriptures Priests G. E. affirmed to I. K. seems very probably in that they put their papers very diligently into one anothers hands but not see the Scriptures and do soms of them say That it is alike for to take a sentence out of their Letters and preach from it R. F. as to take a sentence out of Paul's Epistles c. Here you have shewed forth that you are guided by a lying spirit Reply which makes it good that you are Prophets of the deceits of your own hearts and that you are taught to lie by the Devil the Father of lies John 8.44 in saying that we magnifie our writings above the Scriptures But that which is written from the same spirit that gave forth the Scriptures do witness with their spirits that spoke them forth Zeph. 3. ser 5.30 31. Isai 56.10 11. Mic. 3.11 Mal. 2 c. and have union together as Heb. 12.11 Ephes 5.30.1 John 4.16 17. And cannot but testifie against your deceits as they did against the false prophets then that stole the true Prophets words to trade withal as you steal the Apostles Letters to sell for money which he gave forth to be read amongst his friends at their meetings together 2 Thes 2.1 2. Gal. 6.11 1 Thes 5.27.2 Cor. 1.13 These with the rest of his letters that he sent to his friends and brethren which you are enemies to and are to be marked Phil. 3.17 18. that walks contrary to them And you are to be noted

Glisson Joseph Kellat and all such as you are and your carnality and sensuality we do deny and against your dark Egyptian studied out M●nistry and your painted expressions and gathered up notions we do testifie that you are not acquainted with the teachings of God nor the Doctrine of Christ and ran but the Lord never sent you Therefore do you fulfil that Prophecy declared of by Ieremy Chapter 23.32 And you are as the false Prophets were all teaching for hire as they did to whom the Lord sent his Servants the true Prophets to testifie against them and you are found in the same condition now See Ier. 5.30 31. Isai 56.10 11. Ier. 23.16 17 18 19. Isai 29. and the 9th to the 16th Ezek. 34. to the 11th Isai 72.7 8. Hos 6.9 Hos 5.1 2. Isai 9.16 Zeph. 1.4 Zeph. 3. Zach. 13.4.5 Mal. 2. to 10. but the Lord will make you and all that are as you are of your own inventions and imaginations and run but never was sent and have cast the Law of God behind your backs but your blessing is to be accursed as theirs was and the Lord will make you contemptible in the eyes of the people and you are to be declared against And as Ezra had a standing place for the reading of the Law Nehem 8.4 5. Mat. 23. to the 8. Vers it is not denyed so had the Scribes and Pharisees which took Moses Seat and place pretending to do Justice and take off oppressions but did not But did burden the people as you do that sits in their seats now and acts in the same things which Christ came to throw down and you are Lords and Masters contrary to the Doctrine of Christ but you are discovered But Christ did forbid his to be so be ye not so saith he Mat. 23.8 and said he Be not ye called of men masters but he that is greatest among you let him be your servant Verse 11. and whosoever shall exalt himself shall be abased Vers 12. But you do not abide in his Doctrine as they did who were his Disciples and were in obedience to Christ commands See 1 Cor. 9.16 to 19. 2 Cor. 4. to 6. but you shew your selves to be both contrary to Christ and to his true Ministers and makes your selves manifest to be amongst the false Prophets and Scribes and Pharisees which were enemies to Jesus Christ then as you are found now who do not regard his own sayings as in Mat. 23.8.9.10 c. but are exalted and puft up in your fleshly wisdom high notions and high places and are as those was that were enemies to Christ but see what is your due vers 13.14.15 Likewise see what Christ saith in Mark when he called his Discipl●s he said unto them Ye know that they which are accounted to rule over the Gentils exercise Lordship over them and their great ones exercise Authority upon them Mar. 10.42 and here are you placed Notwithstanding Christs command in vers 43. who said to his But so shall it not be amongst you but whosoever will be greatest among you shall be your Minister and whosoever will be chiefest among you shall be servant of all but you do not abide in his Doctrine but are in the earth the lust of the flesh and in the fall and are in Gentilizm and Pharisaicallizm in pride and vain glory proud boasters and self-conceited Hypocrites and dessemblers and are of those that Christ doth forwarn his Discipled ones to beware of you and such as you are that do not abide in the Doctrine of Christ and so are of Antichrist blush for shame For saith Jesus our Saviour beware of such as these whom I declare and describe unto you See Mark 12.38.39.40 and such sorts of men as these were enemies to the Saints and the Brethren then as you are now who had nothing to do with the Saints priviledges that did not walk in their practice and you witness your selves to be of the same generation notwithstanding you have stoln the Saints words to trade withal but do not abide in the Doctrine of Christ but are Antichrists And the woes Judgments Plagues and Curses that was pronounced to the false Prophets Scribes Pharisees Hypocrites Seducers and Antichrists then the same is now due to you and the Lord will be avenged on you and all such as you are So in doing my duty to the Lord in declaring against you and your deceits I rest in the Lords own free love and remain a friend and lover of all that love the Lord in sincerity and truth Written by a labouring man It were most part of my three days labour R. F. The only true God HIm we worship who placed Adam in the Paradice who dwelleth in eternity and where no uncleanness can approach or come nigh who dwelleth in the highest Heavens and with him also that is of a poor and contrite spirit who causeth such his blessing to inherit whose joy is in him and in the Kingdom of his love Luke 17.21 1 Cor. 4.20 Rom. 14.17.18 Adam in the Paradise and after with Eve in the fall as you and such as you are that are not redeemed by his power not knowing the seed of the woman that bruiseth the Serpents head the enemy the tempter But Abraham Isaac and Iacob who were holy men of God Joseph in the Prison bound under by Phaaroh who was a proud hearted oppressor such as you are Egypt the Isralites red Sea Pillar of fire Egyptians overthrough and the Israelites deliverance by the Divine Power and Moses guiding them in the Wilderness Law Sabbath Ark Church in the Wilderness warfare Iordan Canaan Caleb Ioshua Judges Prophets Kings Victories large love and mercies of the Lord in sending his Son that was born of a Virgin suffered contradiction of sinners Jews high Priests Scribes and Pharisees such as you are and glorification and ascention into the Kingdom of Heaven and in our souls the Kingdom of his Grace where he conquers and rules in love and comforts us by his holy spirit these and all things as the Scripture doth declare of in their times places administrations and dispensations we do all own But your lyes flatteries deceits and hypocrisies whereby you would strangle the truth to make it appear odious to the world we do disown And as for self-justification that we deny and who art thou that dost condemn or lay any thing to the charge of Gods Elect seeing he doth us by his own power both save sanctifie and justifie by saith in Jesus 1 Iohn 3.5 6 7. who was manifested to take away our sins and who shall separate us from the love of God shall tribulation or persecution peril or nakedness famine or sword though we be accounted all the day long as sheep for the slaughter yet we are more then Conquerours through him that loveth us and we know him in whom we do believe and though we be accounted as the filth of the world and off-scouring of all
