can this Revelation be from the Devil which hath destroy'd in her the Devil's Work and brought her to Christ Q. III. Since this Spirit who reveals himself in her calls himself the Spirit of Jesus Christ and witnesses that he who speaks by her is the Lord Jehovah the Tri-Vn God who Created Heaven and Earth the God of Israel how should it be possible for Satan so to disguise himself in the form of an Angel of Light as to give himself the Name of Jehovah at which he cannot but tremble Q. IV. Since that this Person has from her Childhood receiv'd some Revelations of diverse great Mysteries hidden in the Scripture which were not before known to us and which by reason of their Profoundness were not understood even by her self and which notwithstanding do all shew so goodly an Harmony Likewise since that she knows not at all times how to write about such Matters but then only when she is call'd by God and hears his Voice And since also that some Particulars have been foretold by her which have really come to pass accordingly I desire to be Answer'd whether such things as these can ever proceed from a strong Imagination or from a natural Subtilty of Spirit of which yet there is nothing to be found in this dear Person as all those who knew her can testifie And whether though it may be without difficulty consented to that the Depths of Phansie of the Devil and of his Deceivableness cannot be all found out by us it must 〈◊〉 be also confess'd that God will reveal these Depths and Heights of Satan and of Reason to his Children by the Spirit which he hath given them which searcheth the Deep Things of God to the end they may be able clearly to discern that which is the Fault of a strong Impression from that which is the Effect of God's Spirit XLII 1. Before I conclude I cannot forbear to inform you my Dear Fathers and Brethren in Christ that such abominable Lies and Slanders have been publish'd against Us and Her by the Father of Lies and his Instruments as we could never have believ'd it had been possible if we had not been sufficiently convinc'd of the Power of Darkness which at this present rules in the World in the midst of those who Name themselves Christians We then call'd to Mind what the Lord had already upon the 17th of June foretold us which was that there should arise great and abominable Mistakes the which ought not therefore to appear strange to us but rather to caution us that we may profit thereby and be satisfy'd that the Word and Testimony which have been given are True in as much as they are so entirely accomplish'd Whereas if we had been of the World we had been prais'd of it and that every one might have spoken well of us we needed to have done no more but to have express'd our Doubt whether these Revelations or Testimonies were so Divine as that we could be certain of their being so This then is that Revelation which the Lord gave for a Testimony to us Peace be with you my Elect Again I speak unto you O ye that are Blessed to the end I may quicken you and that ye be not wearied in Patience and Stedfastness Give ear now unto my kind Word which in holy Love I communicate to you Be ye elevated all ye Children of my Father who loveth you and become strong in my Might to the end ye may cleave stedfastly and immoveably to me and depart not from me For there will come abominable Lies and gross Mistakes Consider it for I have told it you to the end ye may remain stedfast in my Truth and well-grounded in the Faith so as to depart neither to the Right Hand nor to the Left Let not any fear now overtake you neither be at all disquieted for I the LORD who am above the Heaven of all Heavens am with you as a mighty Warriour who go before you and suffer you not to be destroy'd if you trust in Me and remain with me If so ye are faithful to Me I am your strong Defence and your Castle And who is he that shall surprize you if ye are founded upon Me As for the Evil-dealers that seek after you they shall be broken in pieces and shall fall heavily But ye shall be made to rejoice in my great Help Amen 2. Not long after this we were Comforted by the Lord in like manner as one is comforted and elevated by one's Mother Hear my Word O Israel and thou Judah that art blessed of me give good attention unto it Lo I come suddenly Mistake not move thou not thy foot that thou mayest not fall For mine Arm shall lead Thee and unto thee shall my Truth be made manifest At the Seventh Hour I will sanctifie my Virgin and will bring forth her Glory which I give to her for a Refreshment before the Rising of the Sun Be but of good Heart my chosen Ones without all manner of fear for I have made a Covenant with you that ye shall remain before Me And now I Swear to you yea I JEHOVAH the Lord of Hosts Swear to you that for you I will set my Righteousness against all the High Things which are lifted up against me that am in you and my Loving-kindness shall guide you and my powerful Arm likewise shall be with you This is the Covenant that I make with the Servants and the Handmaids of Jacob. So verily as the Heaven is prepared by my Almighty Word so keep I my Covenant with my Lambs who shall leap after me upon Mount Gilead and upon Mount Sion my Fortress Yea I have said it For I am the Lord the LORD who rule over the Cherubim and Seraphim the God of Abraham of Isaac and of Jacob who have bruised the Serpent's Head Yea Amen Should we not then be Secure and of a good Heart since the Lord God of Israel our Saviour thus Comforted us and assur'd us of his Protection It 's no matter then how this appears in the sight of the World as if we were forsaken by him and as if to us who have plac'd our confidence in Him rather than in Man all these sweet and powerful Promises should not have their Accomplishment We know notwithstanding with the utmost and greatest Certainty that we shall not perish but shall Conquer for that he hath loved us Hallelujah 3. Lastly upon the 30th of November there came to us the following Word in which the Lord explains to us what is the meaning of that passage Mat. 24.23 Lo here is Christ lo there is Christ And he says That the false Bastard Spirit is already come into all States and will yet come with more abominable Lying Wonders The Warning is word for word this I the Lord LORD Jesus Christ He that is True do warn you that you take heed to your selves for there are coming such False Christs that are disguised and have such
