A86445	A discovery of two unclean spirits. Or, Two priests by their fruits made manifest to be out of the way of truth, and out of the life of godliness, in the broad way of destruction, therein working deceitfully the works of errour. A warning unto all scattered people that call themselves Protestants and Christians, yet are out of the faith and life of Christ, in vain traditions, and dead forms, wherein the blind-guids are leading them in the pit. Also a declaration of the light of Christ now appearing in every man, even in the conscience, by which all men are left without excuse. With a plain and true direction into the good way, which from everlasting hath been prepared to lead all that abide therein, out of transgression through death into eternal life. A short discovery of the Lords great fury and heavie indignation that will suddenly break forth upon all the disobedient. Written by one, who loves the seed of God, which is unknown to the world, A.H. in the county of Gloucester.; Discovery of two unclean spirits.

of the light doth not know the place of wisdom though death and destruction may have the same yet it is hid from the eyes of all living all that live out of the fear of the Lord yet notwithstanding unto man God saith Behold the fear of the Lord that is Wisdom and to depart from evil that is understanding Therefore every one both small and great to the voyce of Wisdom hearken at the posts of her gates wait even at the light of Christ in the Conscience which convinceth you of sin and discovers to you what is evil and out of the fear of the Lord and maketh manifest what is good and therein you will come to know the fear of the Lord which is the beginning of wisdome and this I declare freely unto you is the grace of God which bringeth salvation that hath appeared to all men and it now teacheth to deny all ungodliness and worldly lusts and all that believe in it and are obedient to it doth receive the living power of God by which they live righteously soberly and godly in this present world For of a truth there is no other way by which you can escape the wrath of God and eternal destruction of your souls but only by receiving and owning the measure of light that comes from Jesus Christ the eternal Son of God the Mediator between God and man and then in the light you will come to know the word of Reconcilliation which none knows tell they receives Christ the light of the world he alone is the Word of God even the word of Reconciliation without which you are all eternally lost and are a far off from God while you are out of Christ and none comes unto him but them whom the Father draws therefore friends every one while it is called to day harden not your hearts against the drawings of God the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ the Father of lights who desireth not the death of a Sinner but that you might return and live if you return return unto the Lord which none can come unto but by Christ who is the way the truth and the light and all that believe not in the light are out of the way even the way of the just that leadeth unto life and they are in the broad way that leadeth to destruction wherein all are that deny the light and they go astray from God in every thought word and work yet in this condition all men are left without excuse because that which may be known of God is manifested in man even the light of the Son of God hath she wed it unto man what is good and what the Lord requires and giveth sentence against the evil work that is contrary to the pure Law of God for the work of the Law being written in the heart the conscience bearing witness the thoughts continually accuseth and condemneth for evil here you are all left without excuse and the Lord will be just in your destruction for ignorance none of you can plead and the eye of God is open he winketh not the light is the eye Christ is the light that is now appearing in which if you believe not you shall perish eternally A Plain and true Direction into the Good Way which from everlasting hath been prepared to lead all that abide therein out of Transgression through Death into eternal Life NOw every one to the measure of the gift of Christ turn in your minds that you may every one in particular come to find the Talant that is hid in the earth much slighted and not esteemed by you and wait that you may improve it for advantage least the Lord come and find you with the wicked and flothful servant and so turn you who hath despised the measure of light into utter darkness then will you find weeping and gnashing of teeth when the Lord hath taken his own from you the time of his long suffering and patient forbearance will be over and then time will be no more in which you may be saved but with the cursed remain eternally to be tormented with the Devil and his Angels then what will the whole world advantage you when you shall feel the wrath of God even the eternal loss of your souls therefore be diligent before it be too late for the spirit will not alwayes strive with man Now every one consider hath not you had something within you that when you have told a L●e or been Drunk or Swear or Steal or secretly done wrong to your Neighbour or blasphemed the Name of Christ or any evil that you have committed have accused and condemned you even in the very conscience and then many times some of you have resolved never to do so again but then because sentence against the evil work hath not been speedily executed the heart grows hard and is wholly set again to do wickedly and so rebel again against the light even the spirit of truth that convinceth the world of sin which hath long strived with many of you and is pressed under as a Cart is prest with sheaves therefore now let not pride hardness of heart prevail but come down through the Rocks and Mountains of earth For now you are Children of the Night and dust and sin even in the heart which separates you from the light even the measure of the manifestation of the spirit which is given to every man to profit withal that so you may come to see the Son and to enjoy the light thereof that thereby your feet may be guided into the way of peace which is the old way and the good way wherein peace is found to the soul even to as many as are in the way and here you will all come to know what the peace of God is to and what can never enter into peace as you own and receive the light of Christ you will see in the light every thing that stands out of the light and that which stands out of the light you will see condemned by the light as your minds is turned out of that which is condemned into the light which doth condemne you will see the cursed ground from which all evil doth arise and keep you down in death under the chains of death and bands of iniquity in the fall from God so you will know the want of life and your lost condition you will then come to see how you are without God and without strength dead in sins and trespasses and until you see this you are yet lost and as your minds is stayed in the light you will see what you did when you denied the light and how you then pierced the Son of God and daily crucifie him and trample on his blood and put him to open shame And hear friends you must all come to know a better day when once you come to look on him whom you have pierced when you find the want of life and see him slain which is the Lord

H. in the County of Gloucester London Printed for Giles Calvert at the Black-spread-Eagle at the West-end of Pauls 1657. A DISCOVERY OF Two unclean Spirits OR Two Priests by their Fruits made manifest to be out of the Way of Truth c. HEnry Hean of Ollueston William Wilton of Elburton against you two Priests by the Spirit of the living God I am moved to Declare Hearken O ye Priests this Commandment is against you for ye doth shut the Kingdom of Heaven against men you your selves will not enter and them that would go in thereat ye will not suffer for ye have taken away the Key of Knowledge even the key of David ye have denied Christ Jesus the light of the world the true light that lighteth every man that cometh into the world in him was life and the life was the light of men but ye have denied the holy one and the first and have desired a Murderer to be granted unto you and ye have crucified the Lord of life the faithful and true witness who hath loved us and is washing us from all our sins in his own bloud whose bloud is pretious and unto us it speaketh better things than that of Abel but the voice thereof cryeth against you unto the Lord for verely ye are of the generation of them that deny Christ the true light of the world the gift and grace of God which bringeth salvation unto all them that believe in the light I say of that generation will the Lord our God require all the righteous bloud shed in the earth And you Priests who reject that light of Christ you do dispite unto the spirit of grace and you trample on the bloud of the Covenant that is our life which judgeth and condemneth the world and you who hate the light is condemned by that light and from its judgment ye cannot fly and from the wrath of the lamb ye cannot escape unless ye return and kiss the Son who is given unto us the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ who is the way the strait way to the Father the way of holiness which ye have denied and now you stand in slippery places and your fall is near at hand for in the broad way you are in which all did ever perish that continued therein it leadeth to destruction and you are blind and do not see it and you lead the blind into the pit which devoureth widows houses and ye for a pretence make long Prayers standing in the chief Seats in the Assemblies and love to sit in the uppermost rooms at Feasts and to have greetings in the Markets and to be called of men Master and you preach for Hire and divine for Money and seek for your gain from your Quarters you feed on the fat and cloath your selves with the Fleece but the sheep you have not fed But now the day of reckoning is come you are weighed and found too light your ruffe garments are Moth eaten and your nakedness doth appear for your cozening is not by the Spirit of the Lord and wo unto you who are found in the way of Cain running greedily after the error of Balaam who loved the wages of unrighteousness And know this O Priest who hath violated the Law and prophaned the holy things that the Judge of the whol earth will do right and will not at all acquit the wicked neither respect persons in judgment who spared not the Angels that sinned but cast them down to hell and spared not the old world and turned the Cities of Sodom and Gomorah into ashes making them an example unto those that after should live ungodly Wherefore Henry Hean who professeth thy self to be a Minister of Jesus Christ yet are found in the steps of them that were deceivers and false Prophets and art in the ungodly life the hand of the Lord is against thee and thy fellows who are one with thee in the seed of evil doers out of the godly life that goeth in the way of Cain to envie and Serpent-like to deceive the Soul and seduce the innocent who are in the godly life which was before the world was before the deceiving Serpent was and before Cain the Murderer was which life was in due time made manifest to destroy him that had the power of death that is the Devil which is the foundation the ground the root and original of the ungodly life and all you that live ungod-like there is your original foundation ground and root of bitterness from which the evil branch doth spring up which lives and grows and brings forth fruit in the ungodly life in the world without God is the life and breath of all the seed of the old Serpent which is the cursed root of the ungodly which alwayes denyed Christ Jesus the light of the world the Son of God who is the lamb slain from the foundation of the world in the great City which is spiritually called Sodom and Aegypt wherein is the ungodly life Yea which life is condemned and all that is joyned unto it all the wicked and ungod-like are joyned unto it all proud and lustful ones are joyned unto it all covetous and idolatrous ones are joyned unto it all drunkards and gluttenous ones are joyned unto it even all them that in their eating and drinking doth not shew forth the Lords death but doth feed in their lusts without fear and are made strong in the ungodly life from which ariseth the reprobate mind and vile affections being filled with all unrighteousness fornication wickedness covetousness and maliciousness full of envie murder debate deceit malignity whispering backbiting hating of God despitefull proud boasting inventing of evil things these arise from the ungodly life and know all ye Priests who are joyned to and are in the ungodly life against you is the wrath of God revealed from heaven who bear not the Image of him who is created after God in righteousness and true holiness but the image
