on their way out of the world which is Christ the life that 's holy and light that 's pure and to this the mind is kept in all their travels and tribulations and temptions which worketh in them by faith in Christ more hope and more strength daily and every thing that happens them in the way gives experience and renewed strength against their adversarie the Devil while they keep close to Christ in faith and love and though they feel the Devil in the sensual part to be strong and powerful and past their strength at present yet they yeeld him not the Kingdom for that but into the faith and hope and patience of Christ Jesus they sink down waiting for the resurrection of that Life which never sinned but died when sin took his kingdome and there wait for the appearance of Christ without sin to save them from that power of death which wars in their own members to bring forth sin in this world and this is to be true in their service and faithful who wait for the Kingdom of God within them and Righteousnesse thereof and the comming of their Lord with their minds girt up with holinesse and hearts stedfast not to consent to the least work of the Devil if it would gain the whole world in the aperition of the sensual reason and wisdom And if these be overtaken with a fault it is not willingly but as Servants of Christ they stand against it to the utmost they then see and sin being a work of the wrong master they abhor it and themselves for it and deny it and will not plead for it or seek to hide it in them but confesse it and cannot have peace till it be cleansed out and these are the little children who have an Advocate with the Father to whom sin is as death and dare not speak a word for it but against it in themselves and in others and these appear against sin openly and confess to him that is holy with all their hearts and words But what a difference is there betwixt one of these who when they either see it or are told of their offence against the Lord are broken before the least reproof into tears or sorrow condemning themselves for it and it in themselves openly and you who when you are reproved for sin which is both open and known you set your selves with all your strength and wisdom to plead for it and like the Devil bring the letter to strengthen your selves against just reproof and with hearts full of envie and mouths full of reproach you stand up seeking to ensuare them that reprove you in love to Christs Kingdom and your souls and to recover you out of the works of Satan that his kingdom might fall in you and so he have fewer subjects left in his power and you be added unto the Kingdom of Christ by being brought under his Commands through denying your old matter and confessing and condemning his evil works for a denying of the Devil and his works there must be ere Christ will receive you And thus it is that Christ hath ever taken his Kingdom out of the hand of his adversary in the world by sending his Servants into the high-wayes and hedges to gather his creatures out of the Devils works by true reproof and testifying against them where ever he led them for which they were torn and scratched and evil entreated by that evil spirit in whom it had power as you now do who rise up against reproof Christ Jesus known to be King in his Temples through the power of the Holy Ghost and sword of the Spirit lifted up against the man of sin in true Judgement You who look for the Kingdom of Christ Jesus it stands not in observations words and forms but in the power of the holy Ghost in judgment in truth and righteousness If you would know his appearance to salvation wait for it without sin in that Spirit and Power which is holy to judge and condemn sin this is his Kingdom with men if you can receive it that he be known in his spiritual power in the bodies of holy men and women to dwell and walk in a holy life a witness against all sin by the breath of his mouth and Sword of his Spirit and therein that he hath power and consent to judge all contrary spirits within and without and all contrary actions And what ever opposes him in this his Kingdom is Antichrist which denies Christ in his Temples and House whose House and Temple is the new Creation of holy men and women and in whom he speaks dwells and walks as saith the Scriptures in whom he judges the Prince of this world and all his out-goings in the children of darkness and in his own Temples shews forth his nature and virtue a witness against him and all his works and he that would let this is Antichrist who sits in the Temple of Christ to resist the Holy One and cannot receive the Judgements of Christ against sin in his Temples nor his witness against sin to Salvation but cries do not judge when Truth speaks and the Spirit of Christ testifies against sin in true Judgement and this is he that lets and withstands the coming of Christ without sin who withstands him in his Temple and denies his righteous Judgement against sin and blasphemes and sayes it is not he nor is he now on earth nor speaks in any body now against sin but saith Thou must not judge lest thou be judged and so through deceit would turn Christs words against his work who saith I will redeem Zion with Judgement and Christ did not speak those words to save sin from Judgement when he saith Judge not that ye be not judged not to stop the mouth of Truth and Righteousness for then had he contradicted himself who in another place commands them to judge righteous Judgement And he is manifest to destroy sin and not to save sin in whomsoever he is manifest and for this end he liveth in his people which Antichrist would make as though he lived not nor heard or spoke but as a dumb Idol would he make the living God for people to talk on or set up a form of him to make void his present life and spiritual power in his people that he should not shew forth his vertue and give forth his Laws and Judgements by the mouth of his Servants against the works of his adversary where ever they appear in his eye Therefore you professors of Christ in words and forms seek his Kingdom in you and take heed that your forms withstand not his powerful appearance in spirit His Kingly Authority stands in his heavenly holy Nature and Vertue in Spirit and not in perishing rudiments and shadows without Read in Scriptures how often Antichrist hath deceived people by turning these outward forms to let the spiritual power and so have kept people in words without life opposing Christ in his Kingdom So in the first
stedfast in the Faith he flees and the Glory returns to God who dwells in the Light And if at any time the evil-one prevail the creature comes to see the cause to be in himself and not in God and for it is humbled and warned and this he comes to see when the temptation is over and the enemy fled and he is come again into coolness with God in the Light which while the darkness was up and the enemy in the house he saw not And thus is experience gained through tribulations and tryals which they who endure not the temptations never come to learn of God but fall under the temptation through unfaithfulness to the Light and so are ever captives at his will who tempts to evil and the enemy of all Righteousness ever reigns over all the Members leading out the Eyes Ears Hands and Heart to iniquity and vanity and the Tongue to plead for it against every reproof having denyed the reproof of the Spirit of Truth within your selves it cannot be received from others for in that house the contrary spirit wholly reigns which turns away the ear from hearing of Knowledge and the heart from good understanding in Spirit And this is the cause why you are kept alwayes without the feeling of God and his Power and knowledge of his Word and the mysteries of his powerful Counsel are hidden from you which he reveals to the faithful who have overcome through Faith and Patience in whom Satan is subdued and trodden under foot for in whom this devourer is above what ever God gives or reveals to the Creature the Deceiver is ready to pervert it quite to a contrary end that God never intended in the giving thereof and to lift up a wrong nature and exalt a contrary spirit which God hates and this is evident in the Light of Truth throughout the World What is the Gift of God which the spirit of the World abuses not If God give Wealth where that spirit is above how is the creature puft up therewith above the rest of his brethren as though he were no more of the same mould and blood but as God would he be worshipped If he give beauty it s turned into lust pride and wantonness begetting and deceiving adulterous eyes Wisdom is turned into folly and wickedness scorning the simple and over-reaching the plain-hearted and such as have most of it are but most able to compass their corrupt ends If God give Grace it s turned into lasciviousness and Gods long for bearance into hardness of heart Religion and Profession into a cloak for sin and hypocrisie Fasting and Praying to accomplish mens self-ends against such as they would swallow up c. And not one thing that God can give which this evil one will not subvert and turn against the giver so that though God be free in himself and good and plentiful by Nature yet he cannot so shew himself to such in whom the strong man keeps the house who makes the creature thereby but more wanton to kick against his Creator and puffs him up to forget his Maker and Feeder and so a fruitful Land maketh he barren for the wickedness of him that dwells therein which from the beginning was not so Neither is it so with the Children of Light and Counsel who have the Giver in their hearts above the gift where the pure Counsel sits to order the pure Gifts where every good and perfect gift is brought forth in its own nature form and manner undefiled or disfigured with the spirit of the World but the springs run forth from the clean Fountain and the Plant and Fruit is Holy like the Root where the spirit is clean and the flesh undefiled and every thing as it comes from God as in the beginning where the world is ended and the old man put off and all things of God there every gift of God is known by its fruits and nature and ends in such Vessels The Gifts of God return to God by glorifying him here on earth where Riches bring forth good and merciful Works and not pride and vain glory Wisdom stands up against Oppression and not to deceive and through Grace doth Righteousness reign unto Life eternal their Religion is pure and unmixt with the World but separated from it whereby the Sons and Daughters of God are known in the streets by his virtue and comeliness put upon them by him with which they are covered over as a Garment even with all the Fruits of the Holy Spirit of Faith and Truth which is in Christ Jesus who is Lord over all in such Vessels and these are the Vessels of Honour sit for the Lord to shine through against his adversary the worlds spirit in Fruits that cannot be condemned being not defiled in the Vessel but manifest as they come from above answering to that of God in every heart in which the evil one hath neither part nor power these are Sons of God without rebuke in the midst of an unclean generation shining as lights and this alone honours God which is of God and this answers the end of mans Creation and Gods bounty who is rich in such till they come to be filled with all the fulness of God which he withholds not from such but from the unclean and slothful such who defile the flesh with lusts from such he withholds his riches and fulness therefore the World knows not the Sons of God nor whence they are nor whither they return who follows Christ out of the World never returning thither again but to testifie against it whose Vessels are no more filled with lust and the spirit of this World to bring forth thereto but are filled with the holy Ghost who hath made them new Creatures for himself to walk in and shine forth in Fruits of the Spirit And now you wild Colts and barren earthly minded Professors who have filled your Vessels with wantonness and deceit and all sorts of fleshly minds in vain do you hunt about with your old Bottles and think to retain the Heavenly Treasure you gad about but to no purpose in the sight and esteem of God for you are in the wrong work while you are in the worlds nature and in the old creation your words and ordinances are empty of the Life of God and his Fruits you cannot bring forth nor receive till you be renewed nothing you can do will avail you but a new creature your old vessels are full of the old wine from the wild grape and that 's above in you which defiles the pure so God withholds his Gifts from you which abound in his new Creation and you know nought of it but what condemns you so you fight against it and say there is nothing now perfect and so would condemn the new with the old and judge them alike and thus you err not knowing the Gift of God nor the Works of his Hands which are all perfect as he is perfect who walks not in the defiled
forced to fly in the end for refuge when all else is weighed and found too light to abide the tryal though now it be lightly esteemed and you say it s not able to save it s that within that must give you the knowledge of God in the face of Jesus nought without you will make your peace but that which works in you that must cleanse the house of your adversary and ordain peace for you And this is that which makes the holy men of God who have gone before you in this Regeneration to preserve a clean House and a pure Conscience above all that the World can afford or promise knowing that in the day of tryal all will prove a lye but what is truth in the inward parts and that none are true worshippers but who worship the Father in the Spirit and in Truth and the whole mystery of Faith and of Godliness is learned within and holden in that which is pure and the pure in heart onely sees God and have heard and learned of him and such are Sons indeed who are born of the Spirit and led by the Spirit and filled with the Spirit and these have power light and understanding to do well who have God in them who is holy and that Spirit which the Devil is not able to resist and every Child of God hath this in their measure by which they resist the World and overcome it even that which is born of God that onely overcomes which is faithful and will not forget himself blessed onely are they who have of this in them in the evil times which God cannot forget nor suffer to be tempted above measure such only have that Election for whose sake the flesh is saved and in this only doth the creature find favour in the sight of God in the day of vengeance when God ariseth to plead with all the earth for their wickedness a Seed shall be saved but that is not it which saith and doth not And therefore think of this all you who mock at a pure Conscience and reject that of God within and speak lightly and reproachfully of it did you know whom you reproach and against what it is you sport your selves you would rather gnaw your tongues then utter a word against it you would change your minds and seek it with those that sell all that they may find it though it be little in you so that you dare not trust to it yet all that have proved it prize it as the great Power of God to Salvation and whether you can receive it or no you have no Election but what is in it In this did Noah find grace in the sight of God when the earth was corrupted and Noah walked with God and was just and perfect in his generation and in that which was just and perfect he was saved and in the Righteous Seed which was grieved with the uncleanness of Sodom was Lot saved Now if you can read your Election you may its onely that which was before sin was that is grieved at sin and testifies in man against uncleanness and this Seed stands elect before the world was if you can receive it and make it sure you may but you which say you have not power to do well and denies his Call can never do it He that calls out of sin and the soul that is vexed because of sin is little and lowly in you but the god of this world is lofty strong and powerful in you and hath lifted up your hearts on high to seek great things far above that pure principle of true light and understanding which God hath chosen and elected to himself and wherein he will commune with man and teach him his fear and knowledge and give him renewed strength and of his spiritual power and salvation from sin And now your lofty looks are too high for this door and the day of this small and simple one you despise these waters are too still for you to drink on and to stay and wait for great things where so little is seen you have not faith so you out-run your rest and the poor in Spirit take the Kingdom before you to whom the Election and Blessing belongs Now consider you that are lofty rich and high-minded mind the Calling of God and his Election Hath he elected the rich in notion and high in profession the proud and the wanton Hath not he chosen the weak and poor foolish and contemptible to confound all this But he doth not confound the Election the poor lowly and meek the pure and holy in heart and soul he doth not confound nor shut out but he that is pure meek and holy calls and the soul that is meek lowly and loves holiness it answers in all conversation obtaining grace to be holy as he that calls is holy Here is the Calling made sure and the Election by answering thereto who keeps in the Call and in the Election which was in God before transgression was But you that deny him that calls you out of darkness into light by the power of his holiness lowliness meekness and truth manifest in Spirit in you according to the gift of God in his tender mercy by which this springs from above as was in the beginning I say you that reject this to lay hold on something that is set up without you since the beginning you deny your Calling and Election and betake your selves to a changeable thing which the Election is not nor he that calleth thereunto For the Election hath been preserved in God when all the world else professions and people have been deceived defiled destroyed and changed And that is it which is alwayes pure as God is pure and changeth not and he that goes out from this doth not make it sure to himself by well-doing For the Election is in the light and power of Holiness and Truth which they that say and do not are out of Therefore return from off the Mountains you that have lift up your selves on high without God who have a form without the power of God And feel after that which is pure lowly and just in you for God is a Spirit and in the Spirit and Truth is he known and served and there is his counsel received in that which is truth in your inward parts feel that which never sinned near you then you draw near to God in Spirit and keep there and wait and hearken what the Spirit saith which never sinned with that principle in you which would not sin with that wait upon the holy Spirit and mind his motion continually and be obedient thereto that you may once come to serve the living and not the dead that you may be able to say your Redeemer liveth and that you know him and have heard his Voice that is holy as God is holy that is lowly and meek and that you have learned and do alwayes learn of him and are joyned to him that you may become conformable
whose life you speak evil of but know it not by birth and virtue which is naturally good as the first man is naturally evil And the bondage is in that which is against the pure nature and not in that which is free-born and the law is upon the transgressor and him that is degenerated into that nature which is carnal and sensual and if this man do any thing as to God it is from something that is laid upon him not in spirit but from without and this is legal and in bondage which is not in the free Spirit which doth by nature the things contained in the Law And little it is that such would either do or know were there not a Law or a Letter a Heaven or a Hell to put them upon works and here is the bondage and fear that hath torment but with the Spiritual Seed it is not so who are begotten and born of God in Christ Jesus in whom they receive freely as the branch of the root and what he sends forth through them is fruits of the Spirit against which there is no Law and this is not legal but spiritual and free who are a Law unto themselves and there is no Law against the Seed but is added upon the transgressor because of sin till the Seed be come and where the Seed is born and rules that creature is not under the law letter nor tradition nor bondage but led by the Spirit and born of that Nature which was before transgression was by which the fruits of Righteousness are brought to light by the working of the Holy Ghost who worketh the will and deed of his good pleasure and with the same good will and pleasure it is brought forth without bondage or constraint And in whom the bonds of iniquity are broken the world ended and all things become new and all things of God there dwells not self-righteousness nor spirit of bondage but that is the new creature which is in Christ Jesus created unto good works and not in self and the Heavens new and the Earth new wherein dwells Righteousness as it is in Christ Jesus revealed from God in Spirit and Power without the Law manifest to which the Law and the Prophets bear witness having foretold what glory and freedom should be revealed in the latter dayes at the Seeds appearing and the Letter testifies of this life and power but is not this life but the Spirit gives this life and freedom that it may be of grace freely and the glory of the Lord who is that Spirit and here is the boaster and self excluded and all fruitless trees condemned and seen to come short of the glory of God of whose works he is not either root or off-spring And before you can judge of this Freedom or the nature of the works that spring thereof or inherit the power that brings forth this Righteousness you must own the Judgment of Him that condemns the man of sin in you and receive him for your Law-giver which will break you off from the world and would have you to deny the forms and images and bring you from under its power that 's he that breaks the house of bondage and sets the righteous Seed at liberty to bear the fruits which are of God And thus hath Christ sent his servants to seek the lost and to gather them from among bryers and thorns and bring them to Zion one by one and as they were gained out of sin so the Devils kingdom fell and grew weaker by every servant he lost and Christs Kingdom increased until the Kingdoms of this world become the Kingdom of Righteousnesse wherein the righteous King reigns And out of cruel mockings scorning and bloody persecutions they gathered the lost and gained them to God yea sometimes pulled them out of the fire such hath been their faith and zeal for Christ and his holy Kingdom and their stedfastness to that work to which they were called and hired and the furie of the adversary and his opposite power against him in his servants hath often reached unto blood rendering evil for love to their souls Wherefore take heed to your selves you that name the Lord and call him Master depart from iniquity and obey the good This is his work if you be his servants he hath called you to holinesse as he is holy And that you turn from the world and repent of his works who is the prince of it and deny him and them openly and in secret if you will serve the holy One you must bear his mark and open your heart to him and your mouth for him as confidently as the servants of sin do for it that your Light might shine against the darknesse of this world in the face of the perverse and crooked generation that it may appear to all men that the wayes of the Lord and the world are not one nor their servants one nor their words one nor their garments one nor their table one in all things bearing his Image and Glory above his Adversary that it may appear whose Family you belong to and what is his Glory who hath hired you and what is the Work of your Lord in the World And herein may all people as in a glass see your selves and what you are to God in this his day and what against him these are the two masters which Christ tells of which none can serve but the one he hates who serves the other so now who hath hired you whom do you serve and whom do you hate Is it the World you serve then you hate Christ Is it Christ then you deny the World And these are plain things and you may read as you go if you will whose business you go about and whose hand you strengthen If you commit sin and plead for it then you war against him that is manifest to destroy sin And if you say sin must live in you while you live then while you live the Devil must have a place and power in you and a kingdom as long as you live and if you believe to overcome sin then you wait for the Kingdom of God which consists in Righteousness and believe to see it and seek it daily with your whole heart for it is not words which take the Kingdom but power of Faith against the evil one Neither is it forms and professions or any outward thing that can vanquish the Devil for he is a spirit and by a spiritual power must he be resisted and the weapons must be spiritual and mighty through God which casts down his seat in man though many are led out from form to form and deny that power of God in them and obey the power of sin in them not knowing that power which layes the Ax to the root of the evil tree out of which all the evil springs and these are manifest to be such as are not hired what ever your forms may be which you chuse and change you are but in the
place mind to know his spiritual Nature and Vertue and what hath power against sin in word and in deed therein is his Kingdom and there is his Glory and there he reigns So take heed how you let that Spirit which goeth out against sin in judgment and in victory in the least of his people and this know that his Kingdom is spiritual and within and holy and there are his Testimonies Laws and Judgements which he sends out by the mouths of his Servants as he sees fit and it s against the works of the evil one he testifies in judgement and vertue for that is his Nature and to that end he appears on earth to destroy the Devil and his works through the Sword of his Spirit and none will let this but Antichrist and his servants whose works are evil and so would stop the Mouth of Truth and Voice of Christ Jesus So you may come to know his voyce from his Temple when you hear Judgement from the Spirit of Truth passing against pride and lust and all the works of the flesh to destroy out of the world this is his voyce from his Temples in which his Throne is his holy Kingdom and Power and that 's the voyce of Antichrist who would let this and sayes thou must not judge when sin is judged and so with the words of Christ would save the works of the Devil from shame and destruction And now there be many Antichrists in this work to withstand the Word God in his Temples and who set the Letter against the Spirit to keep up sin and to silence the Word of the holy Ghost that comes out of his house against it and here are the Children of the holy God known and the children of this world the one seeks to cut down sin the other to save it and both professe Christ in words but the end of their work makes them manifest And you that are talking of Christs appearance where will you allow him a place to rule in if not in the heart and chief place in man therein to judge and govern and speak and give out his Laws will you allow the evil one to utter his voice openly in man in swearing lying and cursed speaking and every evil work and must Christ be silent and dumb thereat in his vessels when he sees it is not this his priviledge in his redeemed ones as the other hath his power in his captives that in them he may judge sin as openly as in the other it is acted and this is the reasonable service of his chosen vessels to give up their bodies that he may speak and act and shew forth his vertues and life and power therein against the spirit of the world in his vessels and were it not for this none of the holy men of God need to have suffered nor been hated but for the words of God spoken by them as Christ hath said It is not you that speak but the Spirit of your Father that speaks in you and this is the voice which the world knows not and so would stop it and sayes it is not the Lord not knowing that justice and judgement are the habitation of his throne in the hearts and mouths of his people What must not the Spirit of Truth in whom he lives judge deceit and falshood where it lives Must not that which is Holy judge the unclean must not the lowly one judge the proud the chaste one judge the lust must not he that is spiritual judge all things must not Saints judge the world What a nation would you have this to be who would root out judgement and yet profess Christ in you Is Christ in that people where there is no judgement against sin what none to judge pride and excess lying swearing and cursed speaking false wayes and false worships would you have all sin to pass openly without reproof Is the Land wholly become as Sodom mind what was their words to Lot in this case This one fellow came in to sojourn and he will needs be a Judge whose righteous soul was vexed daily with their unclean conversation So would you have sin to go openly in the streets without repoof and shame Where is the Holy One in whom doth he dwell who is of purer eyes then to behold iniquity Is Christ a King is he a Judge is he pure and clean in heart doth he live can he see sin and be silent where he hath a mouth to speak by did he ever take up his abode in people where none would allow him a habitation and a mouth to speak by Mind his walking aforetime in his Servants and what he did and spoke in them and against what and is he not still a God of Judgment at hand against his adversary though such as know not his Voice put him afar off So you who say you are for Christ and his Kingdom mind whose kingdom sin is in and whose work it is to defend it from judgment and take Scripture to plead for it that is he which condemns the just who would clear the guilty and that is abomination to God and withstands his appearance and you that yeeld your members thereto are not for Christ but against him in his members who have yeelded themselves Servants of Truth and such as you were they who slew the Just One his Prophets and Apostles in whom the Word of God spoke against sin and had the Scriptures and served sin Wherefore if you love the appearance of Christ Jesus you must not love sin but in that principle which would not sin feel him that suffers because of sin and yet is without sin and against sin and if to him you come whose appearance is in that which is holy just and true and therein joyn to him you will love that which condemns sin by which he is grieved oppressed and then are you for Christ when you can feel and suffer with him by that which he suffers and you will then see that nought is it that is offended at sin being judged but he that is guilty thereof Grace received and Grace rejected THE Grace of God is that which brings Salvation to man all men being in natural darkness as they are in the world without God so the Grace of God is tendred to all without respect of persons And that 's it in every man which gives him a sight of Truth in himself which Truth God by his Grace accepts in every man who would have all men to come to the knowledge thereof that they might be saved Now this Grace in it self is one in every man and is of God in every man and doth not spare the evil nor deny the good in any out of respect either to person wisdom strength or riches which is of this world but hath respect to the Truth of Spirit in all and their obedience thereto therein to teach and lead to Salvation and the true Worship of God in Spirit which leads to Life
eternal and to the strengthening the holy Seed in man quickening the Soul which by sin hath suffered and this it doth by condemning sin in every motion that it may never arise against the holy Seed and also by ministring comforts and promises and power in spirit to the soul in the way of its arising above the power of the son of wickedness still ministring light and understanding in the hidden part to the holy Seed that hates sin opening that eye daily through the obedience of Truth which the god of this world hath blinded and purifying the Soul by putting off the body of corruption and blinding him that saith he sees but knows not the way out of sin ministring the Law upon him And this is the ministration of free Grace to every Soul that receives it and this it worketh powerfully in all that abide in it through the Spirit of Christ Jesus and this Grace as saith the Scripture hath appeared to all men yea and doth daily appear in all who truly wait in Spirit for its appearance and gives to all such a sight of Truth in themselves testifying with or against every motion in their hearts according as it stands in the sight of God whether it be good or evil whereby the Conscience doth accuse or excuse even as God shall judge them by Christ Jesus So that there is no cause in this Grace why any are not saved thereby from sin and condemnation but being rejected of some it becomes their condemnation and the same thing which saves him that receives it in faith and obedience condemns him that rejects it in his disobedience And this is the Grace of God that changeth not which appears to all men but only reigns to Salvation through righteousness wherein it is believed to be sufficient and obeyed in the Truth therewith made manifest So that is the Grace of God which is of God in man ministring in Spirit light to the Soul in the midst of darkness ministring life to that which is dead in sin leading that through the vail of death up to God from whom the Grace hath appeared and of whom it is and the Light thereof is Judgement and discerning in every one that receives it to be led with it in Judgment and Condemnation to such as turn it into lasciviousness denying the life thereof and the truth that leads thereto and so cannot be saved through it but he that receives it and joyns to it in Spirit becomes one with it and by his daily sinking into it in counsel it grows in him and he in it until it becomes a habitation and cover for him against all evil and so he becomes gracious in words and works daily receiving Grace for Grace of his fulness And he that hath received of this Grace and is faithful therein must not minister of it to strengthen the transgressor who loves his sin and so is under the Law for that is to cast the pearls to swine but to such as are heavy laden and weary of sin to encourage against sin and temptations which all that turn from the Devil must be sure to meet with and Judgement it ministers to the wicked that therewith he may know his condemnation with the light of Truth in whom Grace is denied to reign it is their condemnation that he is come into the world who is full of Grace and Truth but the Kingdom of Grace is Salvation in whom it reigns through righteousness unto eternal Life by Jesus Christ the Lord. So he that receives the teaching of Grace comes therein to the leading of the Spirit and so becomes free from sin is no more under the Law but under Grace but the Law hath power over him that walks after the flesh and every appearance of Grace is witness against him by declaring him to be under the law of sin and death and not in Covenant with him that appears against sin in the power of Grace and Truth which is Christ Jesus the Lord.
