Eternity in the presence of his eternal spiritual person I declare from the Lord Jesus that God the Creator hath made that creation in the heavens above as visible to be seen as this creation is seen in this earth beneath Again I declare from the holy Spirit that the glorious person of the onely wise God and eternal Father the Lord Jesus is as visibly seen of the creatures where his person is resident as a man is visibly seen of the creatures in this earth beneath where his person resides as for this creation in the heavens above it is to set forth the glory of his immortal person that all the creatures in his presence visibly beholding the glorious person of their Creator both holy Angels and other creatures according to their wisdom or understanding might give him the glory of their eternal happinesse of this their creation and on the contrary if the Creator were not visibly seen by the eyes of his creatures then no creatures could possibly know him to return any praise or glory unto him at all for the happiness of their condition Therefore it is a cursed lying imagination for any man to think that the glorious person of God is not as visibly seen of his creatures in the heavens above as the person of man who is the image of God is visibly seen of the creatures in this earth beneath Again you must not think after a fleshly manner that the creatures above the starrs are male and female for natural generation as they are in this creation beneath the starrs for a woman had never been made but for generation that the immortal God might have a womans womb in this world to cloath himself with flesh and that the Reprobate Angel which is the Devil might have the womb of a woman to cloath himself with flesh also to bring forth Gods glorious design between the seed of the Woman and the seed of the Serpent wherefore I declare from the holy Spirit that the holy Angels and all other Creatures that are in the presence of God in the Creation beyond the stars are all spiritual male creatures never encreasing in their numbers not being fleshly desiring generation but their spirits or natures instead of fleshly pleasures in generation are full of spiritual and heavenly joyes of a more transcendent glorious content within themselves and visible glorious contents in their beholding of the glorious face of God and the faces of one another and the glory of that place they enjoy the which exceeding glory shineth forth through that heavenly Kingdom from the bright burning glorious person of God the Creator the Lord Jesus Christ who alone hath all the glory of his Creation in the Heavens above wherein dwelleth nothing but righteousnesse in Glory Again I declare from the Lord Jesus that no man can understand or know any thing of these things that are invisible unto our natural eyes but by the Spirit of Revelation therefore it is written that faith is the substance of things hoped for the evidence of things not seen again it is written through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear so that in the Letter of the Scripture it is clear to you that see by the eye of Faith that God hath made or framed two Worlds or two Creations which is all one for you know to frame a thing or to make a thing is all one Again unto you it is clear there are spiritual visible things in that world above or beyond the stars as well as here are natural visible things in this world beneath the stars because you may understand that this world and the things that are visible therein were made or created out of that world which is invisible to us who are in mortality but visible to those who are above in glory so that now you that are appointed to enter with spiritual bodies into that glorious Creation or world beyond the stars may understand a little clearer of your inheritance in that Kingdome made without hands or City eternal in the Heavens where you shall visibly see with your eyes the face of God Men Angels and all Creatures in that creation above the stars as you see the face of man and all other creatures in this creation beneath the stars with glorious new Songs of spiritual and heavenly praises unto a glorious God to all eternity This proves the truth of these Scriptures where it is written My kingdom is not of this world and of this saying Lord remember me when thou comest into thy Kingdom and of that saying In my Fathers House or Kingdom are many mansions and of that saying For thine is the Kingdom the power and the glory for ever and of that saying The Kingdoms of this world are become the Kingdoms of our Lord and of his Christ this world was the Heavens above and of that saying neverthelesse we look for a new Heaven and a new Earth wherein dwelleth righteousnesse and of that saying He hath made us Kings and Priests unto God and we shall reign with him upon the Earth This is that glorious new Heaven and new Earth in the presence of God above or beyond the stars but blind carnal hypocrites imagine that Gods reigning with his Elect ones will be upon this bloody Earth because they have no spiritual Eyes to see or know that new Heaven or new Earth above or beyond the stars where nothing but pure righteousness reigneth in glory for everlasting or world without end Amen 5. AGain concerning that Serpent before-said so called of the Lord for his subtilty I declare by Revelation from the holy Spirit that God created his spiritual person more glorious then the persons of all the holy Angels that are in the presence of God in Heaven because this mighty Angel by the wisdom and secret Counsel of God was to be as a God to bring forth his seed or generaration of wise and prudent subtile Serpent men and women to oppose the Creator and his innocent seed or generation of simple plain-hearted men and women that are of the spirit of faith and pure love with all other heavenly vertues for the nature or Spirit of God is faith and love and all other divine vertues infinitely living in his glorious Person the which faith is all power of righteous actings naturally flowing from his pure spirit as from a pure overflowing fountain of living waters but on the contrary the nature or spirit of this God-like Angel and all the rest of the holy Angels in their Creation were pure reason from whence naturally flows no good at all but what comes into them continually by Revelation from that pure spirit of Faith in the person of God their Creator and this is that spiritual Manna that keeps the holy Angels natures or spirits pure in the presence of God for it is the nature of that pure reason
new life of a glorious encrease both spiritual and natural so that death in its place is as useful for the Creators raising of glory to himself as life is in its place this proves the truth of these Scriptures He poured out his soul unto death again The soul that sins shall die again He c●yed with a loud voyce and gave up the ghost again In the day thou eatest thereof thou shalt die the death again His soul was made an offering for sin again He was put to death in thy flesh and quicked in the spirit I know I have written enough to satisfie in the proof of this truth all spiritual Christians XIV AGain it is written and those that sleep in Jesus shall rise first that is those that fell asleep in the believing of the visible coming of the glorious person of the Lord Jesus in the clouds of Heaven in power and great glory their bodies shall be raised first out of the sleep of death because they were united by faith unto the person of their Lord Jesus who was the first that ever rose from the dead by his own power who raised life in death or out of death therefore he was called the first fruits of the resurrection or of life from death again you that see by faith m●y understand that not the same bodie● that died or fell asleep shall appear any more at all then the body of wheat doth as beforesaid which Paul fitly compareth together in their resurrection where it is written but God giveth it a body as it pleaseth him and to every seed his ●wn body that is as beforesaid that grain or body of wheat that died quickened a new life out of death and brought forth in a glorious manner in due season many bodies of the same form of that that dyed and yet that body that died appeared no more so likewise it shall be with all that died in the faith of Jesus not the same bodies or persons they lived in and died in shall appear again any more but that spirit of faith mixt with pure love and all other spiritual vertues that were in their former bodies by the which they died unto the power of sin and lived unto the power of righteousnesse that divine seed of faith sowed in the former body died with the first body immediately quickned a new life out of death by the decree of the Lord Jesus for you know there is no time now unto God nor unto them that are dead and so brought forth a spiritual body in its ●orm like unto that in the dust yea of a body of pure righteousness the same nature of that holy spiritual faith that raised it out of death yea a glorious body brighter then the Sun in its strength and as swift as thought yea bodies of such a bright burning glory that no persecuting Canaanites can behold and live because our spirits and bodies according to our faith and shall be made like unto the glorious body of God the man Jesus the which no man in mortality with his natural eye can behold and live then shall all the Elect in the twinkling of an eye both those that slept in the dust and those that are alive at that time whose bodies also shall be changed like unto those that slept then I say they shall all ascend together as one body to meet their Head the Lord Jesus in the Aire and with their King they shall enter into his Kingdom of eternal glory where that new Heaven and new Earth are beforesaid there with holy Angels to behold the glorious face of the only wise God and everlasting Father the Lord Jesus Christ with new glorious songs and praises unto their Redeemers that was dead as it is written to redeem us by his precious blood from eternal death and now behold be liveth for evermore therefore we eternally live with him XV. AGain I declare by revelation from the Holy Spirit that when the Elect are thus glorified they are absolutely of the very same glorious nature both in spirit and body as God is as God and they were both of one nature in mortality sin only excepted wherefore as the spirit of faith and love infinitely in the glorious person of God overfloweth as a fountain continually with revelation of new Heavenly wisedom from whence flows new joys and glory to himself and the holy Angels so shall every Believer according to his degree in glory be as a Well springing up unto everlasting life of revelation of new wisedom from whence flows new joys and glory within his own person like unto his God only they shall naturally returne the glory and praise unto their fountain the Lord Jesus for this their exaltation upon the glorious Throne of his own likenesse for it is the righteous actings and sufferings that was in the innocent body of the Lord Jesus when the was in mortality that by his infinite wisedom is made naturally that glorious fire to kindle new Revelation of Heavenly wisdom with in his body for the increase of his glory to all eternity as beforesaid so likewise all those righteous actings and sufferings for truth sake that were acted and suffered in our former bodies by the appointment of our God shall be conveyed into our new spritual bodies that are like unto our God and shall be that glorious fire naturally to kindle revelation of new wisedom from whence flows glorious new songs and praises unto our Redeemer the fountain of all our glory for everlasting world without end as abundantly beforesaid then shall these Scriptures be fulfilled to him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne even as I also overcame and am set down with my Father in his throne Again and he that overcometh and keepeth my words unto the end to him will I give power over the Nations and be shall rule them with a Rod of iron as the vessels of a Potter shall they be broken to shivers even as I received of my Father and I will give him the morning star Again him that overcometh will I make a Pillar in the Temple of my God and he shall go no more out and I will write upon him the name of my God and the name of the City of my God which is new Jerusalem which cometh down out of Heaven from my God and I will write upon him my new name Again he that overcometh shall inherit all things and I will be his God and he shall be my son Again henceforth I will not drink of this fruit of the Vine until that day I drink it new with you in my fathers Kingdom Again and from Jesus Christ who is the faithful witnesse and the first begotten of the dead and the Prince of the Kings of the Earth Unto him that hath loved us as washed us from our sins in his own blood and hath made us Kings and Priests unto God and his Father to him be glory and dominion for

Of some difference between the glory of Men and ●ngels in glory in the heaven above AN Epistle from the holy Spirit of the Lord Jesus Christ the eternal Father written by the Lords two last witnesses and prophets that ever shall declare the mind of God the man Jesus that was crucified without the gates of Jerusalem the Lord Jesus by us his poor despised messengers hath sent this Writing unto the Christian world so called Wherefore we declare by vertue of our Commission given unto us by voice of words from the holy Spirit of the Lord Jesus from the throne of his glory to make known his prerogative will and pleasure both to the elect world and reprobate world a little before his glorious coming to separate between the two worlds that whosoever despiseth this Writing whether he be a King or a Beggar by calling it blasphemy or heresie or delusion or a lye or speaking evil of it in any kind whatsoever in so doing they have committed that unpardonable sin against the holy Ghost or spirit that sent us Wherefore in obedience to our Commission from the Lord Jesus Christ whom they have despised and not us we pronounce them cursed both soule and body from the presence of the Lord Jesus elect men and Angels to all eternity John Reeve and Lodowick Muggleton the Lords two last true Witnesses and Prophets spoken of in the eleventh of the Revelation a little before the coming of him that sent us who is the Judge of both quick and dead FEbruary the 3.4 and 5. 1651. three mornings together much about an houre the Lord Jesus the only wise God whose glorious person is refident above or beyond the stars I declare from the spirit of truth that this Jesus from the throne of his glory by voice of words spake unto me John Reeve saying I have given thee understanding of my mind in the Scriptures above all men in the world The next words the Lord spake unto me were these saying Look into thy own body there thou shalt see the Kingdom of Heaven and the Kingdom of Hell the Lord spake these words unto me twice together Again the Lord spake unto me these words saying I have chosen thee my last messenger for a great work unto this bloudy unbeleeving world And I have given thee Lodowick Muggleton to be thy mouth at that very moment the holy spirit brought inot my mind that Scripture of Aaron given unto Moses Again the Lord spake unto me these words saying I have put the two-edged sword of my spirit into thy mouth that whoever I pronounce blessed through thy mouth is blessed to eternity and whoever I pronounce cursed through thy mouth is cursed to eternity When I heard these words my spirit desired the Lord that I might not be his dreadfull messenger For indeed I thought upon the delivering of so sad an unexpected message unto men I should immediately have been torn to pieces Again the Lord spake unto me these words saying If thou dost not obey my
allow of the civil Magistrate to govern the rude people To this I answer The Magistrate is very needful in every inhabited Land for the government of the People in all civil things to do equal justice between man and man if such a Magistrate could be found it would be a rare thing Again I declare from the Holy Spirit although the Magistrate be but a heathen Ruler as he is wherefore Christ said of this Magistrate unto his Apostles the Kings or Princes of the Gentiles exercise Lordship over them and they that exercise Authority upon them are called Benefactors but ye shall not be so but he that is greatest among you let him be as the younger yet I say from the Lord the Magistrate beareth not the Sword in vain but he is a type of the true spiritual Magistrate that can do nothing but equal Justice between the just and the unjust the Lord Jesus Christ Wherefore all men ought to yield obedience to the civil Laws of the Magistrate either by executing of his Lawes or patiently by bearing the curse of the Law upon their own persons leaving all vengeance unto God or else they rebel against God and they are in danger of an eternal curse because the government of this world and the glory thereof belongs only unto the wise and prudent heathen Magistrates in this Earth who are the very sons of Cain that old Serpent-Dragon-Devil that slew his righteous Brother Abel that he and his Seed that are of his own spirit might be the Lords and Rulers of this world for ever because Cain thought and his dark Angels thinks that there is no world at all but this only they have purchased the Lordship of this perishing world at a dear rate for it was the price of the innocent blood of righteous Abel it is their only heaven Therefore let us that have received faith to believe in the glorious person of the Lord Jesus by his power patiently suffer the cursed spirit of Cain in his heathen Magistrates to shed all our innocent blood if our God will have it so that they may fill up the measure of their fathers sins from the blood of righteous Abel and the holy Prophets to the precious blood of the Lord Iesus and the holy Apostles that our blood that are the two last Witnesses and Prophets of the Lord Iesus may make the last persecutors of Christians compleat Devils with their Father Cain who was the first bloody persecutor of the first suffering Christian therefore it is written that Christ was a Lamb slain from the beginning of the world he being slain in believing Abel I say from the Lord by the power of his Holy Spirit patiently let us yield up our lives with our God unto those perishing gods beforesaid because we that suffer with him are appointed to enter into an eternal Kingdom of glory in another world hid from the wise and prudent Rulers of this vanishing world therefore it is written which of the Rul●rs have believed in him again as it is written Why do the heathen then so furiously rage together the Kings of the earth stand up and the Rulers take Counsel together against the Lord and against his anointed or against his Christ Again as it is written by Paul howbeit we speak wisdom among them that are perfect yet not the wisdom of this world nor of the Princes of this world that come to nought Again it is written which none of the Princes of this world knew for had they known it they would not have crucified the Lord of glory Again that world that we are to reign in after we have suffered it was purchased also by blood but it was the price of the precious unvaluable undefiled blood of our God the man Jesus who by his Holy Spirit that sent us only maketh us willing to taste a little of his Cup that he so deeply drank of the servant is not greater then the Master because we are to sit down with him upon his eternal Throne of glory to behold his face in the presence of all his holy Angels then these Scriptures will be fulfilled Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousnesse sake for theirs is the Kingdom of Heaven Again Blessed are ye when men shall revile you and persecute you and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely for my sake rejoyce and be exceeding glad for great is your reward in Heaven for so persecuted they the Prophet● which were before you Again Then shall the righteous shine forth as the Sun in the Kingdom of their Father Again For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his Angels and then he shall reward every man according to his works Again Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand Come ye blessed of my Father inherit the Kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world Again then shall he say unto them on the left hand Depart from me ye cursed into everlasting fire prepared for the Devil and his Angels XII AGain I declare by Revelation from the Holy Spirit that since the fall of our first Parents that the spirit and body of man are both mortal and that by the Decree of the Creator the soul and body of man are both procreated or begot together and they are both of one nature and so both but one Creature for it is the invisible spirit that liveth in the seed and nature of man that by the Decree of God creates or begets that form of flesh in the person of a man or woman according to their kind and thus it is with this whole Creation every seed or spirit naturally by the wisdom of the Creator brings forth their own bodies or kind whether Man Beast Fish or Fowl and all things else that grows naturally brings forth in their season according to their natures because the Creator by his secret Counsel and Wisdom decreed within his glorious Person before any thing was created or formed by him that all things or Creatures that should be created or formed by his infinite Wisdom should bring forth their own bodies or kind only and no other for ever therefore when men and beasts seeds are unnaturally mixt together contrary to their kind the Lord discovers them both to their destruction and his glory Wherefore I declare from the Lord Jesus and it is a cursed Imagination in any man to think when men die their spirits may go into other forms and bodies contrary to their own natures or kind as many a cursed lying Atheist prates that denyes the Resurrection of mens bodies through the love of some dark fleshly lust they live in They are in spiritual darknesse understanding nothing of the power of God and so erring not knowing the Scriptures as it is written nor the power of God therefore it is a common thing for these blind Atheists in their discourse to say when men die their spirits may or do go
