A86671	A true separation between the power of the spirit, and the imitation of Antichrist. The difference between the pretious and the vile, between the saints and professors, between the power and the form, between the wise virgins who are so indeed, and them who have gotten the name, but want the power.	Hubberthorn, Richard, 1628-1662.	1654 (1654)	Wing H3238; Thomason E809_16; ESTC R207570	8,420	9

pu●ifieth the heart from all lusts and conceivings of lust begetting in the lust and so you act in your will and inventions making a separtion outwardly in the flesh but the heart full of lusts and uncleannesse within Now a Virgin is pure and kept from all pollutions and from all lusts of the flesh and lusts of uncleanness is not defiled nor polluted but is kept pure in the light of Christ and they are not defiled with women and they are virgins who are redeemed from the earth who follow the Lamb whose garments are undefiled and the virgin state we witness who love the light of Christ which is pure doth keep our minds pure the pure water we do witness which the Scripture speaks of by which we are washed from all filthiness of flesh and spirit and the light of Christ we walk in which is our guide and teacher which will not suffer lusts to reign in the heart nor any adultery to be committed for in the light it is all judged and condemned and all who love the light and walk in it they are led out of all adultery and fornication and they come to witnesse the virgin state Now if a virgin marry she hath not sinned but to you this is a mystery whose minds are without turned from the light into a sensuall separation onely in the will forbidding to marry which is honorable in its place and the bed undefiled but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge Heb. 7. 4. Now in the presence of the Lord I speak and from the light of Christ to you all who are marryed and who are unmarryed and to the light of Christ in you I speak and your minds being turned to it to be your teacher loving it and walking in it it will teach you that have Wives to be as though you had none and to use the World as though you used it not and them that buy as though they possessed not and will lead you into singleness of heart and mind and out of carefulness Now there is a difference between a Wife and a Virgin but I speak not to feed any mans comprehension but that every one may wait upon the Lord in the light of Christ for a cleer distinction and to come out of the destraction of your mindes and out of your Imitations to mind the light of Christ within you which will draw your minds within to be tanght of the Lord and out of all the Lusts of the flesh which all they live in who are turned from the light into the Imaginations and Imitations and so are ignorant of the Scriptures and of the spirit which spoke them forth Therefore I say unto you who through your vain Imaginations separate between man and woman and say that there should be no begetting nor bringing forth after the flesh and so looks without being turned from the light into the Imaginations and evill thoughts Judgeth to you I say have you not read that he which made both Man and Woman at the beginning made them male and female and they were no more twain but one flesh what therefore God hath joyned together let no man put a sunder now to the light of Christ in all your Consciences I speak which lightshines in darknes but the darknes comprehends it not but all who do love the light to be taught and guided by it will lead you out of your Comprehensions and out of your own wills from which your Imitations are formed and will let you see that you are out of the Virgin estate for your Lamps are not trimed neither are you obedient to the light in your Conscience which leads unto Christ and gives enterance to the bridegroom but you whose light is gone out and have not been obedient to it which hath shined within you and you are they who are slumbering and dreaming in your Notions thoughts and Imaginations you filthy dreamers who hath defiled the flesh and the night is upon you and now is the Cry in the night he that hath an Ear to hear let him hear for now is the bridegroom coming and they who wait in the light do hear the voice of Christ and they come to witness his presence and do enter into the bride chamber but you whose minds is turned from the light you are shut out as the foolish Virgins though you would be owned by them who walk in the light but can have no fellowship with you who hate the light and walk in darkness for light hath no fellowship with darkness and here you are shut out from the children of light and from Virgins for Virgins are chast and sober minded but you who have the name but not the power you are rude and wild and live in lightnes and wantones and folly which the saints was redeemed from and so you are without in the world among the dogs and swine wallowing in the mire minding earthly things and are enemies to the Crosse of Christ and live without the fear of God And you who say you are redeemed from the Cross and are come out of the fear into the love silence flesh before the Lord for that speaks in you which never knew the Cross of Christ but is for destruction and is to be condemned by Christ and the cross of Christ when it coms to be known is to the crucifying of that nature which speaks and acts in you who lives without the fear of God and out of the love of God you are for they who love God keep his Commandments what love of God is there in you that doe not the things which he commands you nor doth not walk in obedience to the light of Christ in your consciences which he hath enlightned you withall which saith Thou shalt not be proud now thou that livest in pride what love hast thou to Christ Christ saith swear not at all now thou that swearest breakest the commands of Christ and hates the light of Christ in thee which saith Swear not at all and so thou art out of the love of God and out of the love of Christ the light of Christ tels thee thou shouldst not lye now thou that dost lye loves not Christ but art in the curse and in the flesh for he who loveth and tels a lye hath not part in the kingdom of God Now if you love the light it will not suffer thee to lust after earthly things nor mind earthly things nor love the world for he who lusteth and he who loves the world the love of the Father is not in him and loving the light it will not suffer thee to fashion thy self according to this world nor to respect persons for he that respecteth persons transgresseth the law of God disobeys the light in the conscience and he that takes the name of God in vain transgresseth the law of God and disobeys the light in the conscience doth not love God for he that hates the light hates Christ and
