amongst us to make us all New Soul and Body as I was bound to keep any of the Commands of God And again this was confirmed to us when the Lord's Servant came with these Words Behold the man whose name is the BRANCH The Father's Day is come which was hid from Men and Angels I found these things so strong and weighty that I could not dally with them for if I would have said I did not believe he had brought his first begotten again into the World because I did not see him with my bodily Eyes my own Conscience would have condemned me for the Oath of God was writ in my Heart which he had sworn to Philadelphia Time shall be no longer and behold the man whose name is the BRANCH I knew in my Soul that this was the Word of God that the Old Adam's State was finished which could be done only by the coming of the New I must own it in the presence of God that he hedged me up to these things and put me to that blessed streight that I must cry out in the Name of all Philadelphia Be ye lifted up ye everlasting doers and the King of glory shall come in And I Witnessed to them That the Christ of God was not only given to us out of the Father 's own hand in his own season but clossed with and received as he was offered in the Word in sure and certain hopes that as we have born the image of the earthly so now for ever bear we the image of the heavenly Adam I Witness that God writ it with an Iron Pen and the point of a Diamond on my Heart That I was finally eternally and everlastingly acquitted and absolved from all the guilt of Sin and Sorrow which came by the first Adam having received and closed with the Righteous BRANCH as he was given out of the Father 's own hand for which infinite Grace and Mercy I prostrate my self in Dust and Ashes at his Feet acknowledging his Love and Mercy to be absolute grounded wholly and eternally on the Merits of his Dear Son and that there is nothing in any Creature I further Witness That he enabled me to rely on the Infallibility of his Word Oath and Testimony which from that time stood in full force for the utter destruction of my Sins and Corruptions I Witness That I came a miserable distressed tormented Wretch out of the Old Adam's State so that I had longed many years for a Grave not for any outward Miseries but constant wearyings and tirings out with a Body of Sin and Death And the man whose name is the BRANCH that was given out of the Father 's own hand became almost glorious triumphant Conquerour over the Old Adam and for these things I bow my Knees to the Almighty and shall sing Praise unto my Zion's KING now and ever Amen I Witness That I heard a great voice from the temple of heaven from the throne saying It is done And then he came and writ on me his new name King of kings and Lord of lords and upon this called me to take of the water of Life freely And he shewed me a pure river of water of life clear as christal proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb Rev. 22. 1. I Witness I had not only an outward Call in the Word to take these waters of life but inward Illumination of his Spirit according to these words Rev. 22. 17. The spirit says Come All Glory to my Zion's JESUS now and ever And I took of the water of life and shall never thirst more it is in my Belly a well-spring to Eternal Life All Glory to the Lord alone now and ever I Witness That at the same time he said unto me Behold the man whose name is the BRANCH See the tree of life placed in the midst put forth thy hand fear not take eat and live for ever and he gave me of the Tree with these words John 6. 58. Not as your fathers eat manna and are dead he that eateth of this bread shall live for ever And for all these things Blessing and Honour and Wisdom and Strength and Power be to our God now and ever Amen And there is no more curse but the throne of God and the. Lamb shall be in it his servants shall serve him And see his face and his name shall be in their foreheads And there shall be no night there they need no candle nor light of the sun for the Lord God giveth them light and they shall reign for ever Rev. 22. 3 4 5. All Glory to the Lord alone now and for ever After these things the Lord's servant comes and tells you God hath performed his Oath There is time no longer And the mighty angel comes down cloathed with a cloud and a rainbow on his head his face shin'd as the sun and his feet as pillars of fire And he had in his hand a little book open and he set his right foot on the sea and his left foot on the earth And cried as when a lyon roareth And he lift up his hand to heaven and sware by him that liveth for ever and ever who created heaven and the things that therein are the earth and the things that therein are and the sea and the things that therein are that there should be time no longer Rev. 10. 1 2 3 6. I Witness That on this same day I had a strict Commission from God to tell you with other things That a sign of deliverance to the Church of Philadelphia signified God's Oath to them The Lord tells you He hath performed his Oath and there is time no longer the Old Adam's state is finished And I do affirm in the Name of the Eternal God That this is the Witness of Him that is Faithful and True and that he doth hath and shall for ever sway his Kingly Scepter in my Soul and he hath conquered the Old Adam And once more in the Name of the Lord I do affirm for the Honour of his Word and Oath That he did come down on this same day with a rainbow on his head as a most glorious triumphant Conquerour over the Old Adam and that he did remove the iniquity of the land in one day Zech. 3. 9. And the mountains shall depart and the hills be removed but the covenant of his peace shall never be removed Isa 54. 10.

ever And the whole Creation shall now break forth into the high Praises of God because the Adoption is come and it is delivered from the bondage of Sin and Corruption into the glorious liberty of the Sons of God Rom. 8. 21. But oh how much more should Philadelphia be night and day at this Work who hath been so highly favoured of God to see these things with the seven Eyes that are upon the Stone before there was any visible appearance in the World thou elect Seed that was to Inherit God's Holy Mountain on whom he hath writ the Names of the City of his God the People that was to be born to praise him come and adore before his Feet for thou shalt again be Adorned with Tabrets and shall go forth in the Dance Jer. 31. 4. for that God that hath finished the dark obscure Sign appears in the bright and glorious Sign You will say Was not the Sign finished before Answ It is more than two Years since the Mystery of God began to be fulfilled and the Lord appoints Witness from time to time to be given in that such and such things was fulfilled and done And we thought every Word to be the Last and that no more was to be done for this blessed Olive Tree that had so long emptied the Oyl through the Pipe into the Candlestick God shews him that he was to be removed and stand in another place and so he tells you he had but a very little more to say to you and after this declares That the days of the voice of the seventh Angel are ended and the Lord receives him to himself And then the dark hour comes on Philadelphia Thy Sons have fainted they lye as a wild Bull in a Net full of the fury of the Lord Isai 51. 20.
