Sprinkles the Conscience from the dead Works which have no fellowship with the living God And Cain offered in that Mind and the Jews prayed in that Mind and Spirit but the Lord regarded them not as he did Righteous Abel and the Cry of the Innocent therefore read James 4.2 3. Ye lust and have not ye envy and desire immoderately and cannot obtain ye fight and war and yet get nothing because ye ask amiss ye ask and receive not because ye ask amiss that ye may consume it upon your Lusts or that you might lay the same out upon your Pleasures So I do desire you that have known the Lord and his holy Counsel to stand therein for to such I speak in Tenderness of Heart that ye may not make it void and of none effect by letting your Minds reach out to an easier and wider Way than what the Cross that mortifies self admits of for a true Word it is and stedfast forever to the Children of men no Cross no Abolishing Death no Crown of Life no Crown of Glory will Wisdom deliver to thee for thou art no Child of Wisdom that dost not justifie Wisdom in all her Wayes thou that canst own her in some but not in all her Wayes art not Free-born from above thou art a Bastard and not a Son of the Free-Woman And Friends that Man or Woman that is not willing to stand in the holy Will and Counsel when it is once known will hearken to the Witch for Counsel as Saul did And whoever forsakes the Lord the Fountain of living Waters they will be hewing to themselves broken Cisterns as saith the Prophet Cursed be the man that trusteth in Man or makes Flesh his Arm whose Heart hath departed from the living God O foolish Galatians saith Paul who hath bewitched you that ye should not obey the Truth Have you begun in the Spirit and what do you think to be made Perfect in the Flesh Were not they given up to believe a Lying Spirit who liked not to retain the Knowledge of the true Spirit Oh! how many have desired to bend the Lord in his Counsel to serve themselves like as Balaam did who although he once knew that the Lord was pleased only to Bless Israel his People and not to Curse them yet for his Promotion sake and Lusts sake he would fain have done it he went into Error when he went to ask Counsel of God again about that matter whose Madness and Folly and his Way which was perverse before the Lord the dumb Ass reproved So such as be Convinced of the Lord 's holy Way who love it so as to walk in it without any reservation be Obedient till the Death and then will the good Spirit never be grieved nor with drawn from you for saith the Lord Wo be to you when I depart from you for about the Throne of God and the Lamb which is for true Judgment be many Spirits even now as in the dayes of Ahab and they have now as then Commissions given them to wait on them that wait not on the Lord with a pure simple Mind and to be their Counsellors who like not to retain God his Counsel when he is once known and this Spirit will become their King and their God which they shall Curse one day and look upward as did the Rich and Full Man who when in his Torment would fain have been comforted with a little of that which the Poor man in Abraham's Bosom did enjoy but it could not be given him and this is a Ministration of Justice from the Just God and the Lamb upon such that have known the Lord but have not liked to retain him in their Knowledge and so have been given up to Unrighteousness until their Temple and House which was once in part swept and garnished came again to be filled with Darkness and here it has happened with them according to the true Proverb The Dog is returned to his Vomit again and the Sow that was washed to her wallowing in the Mire And therefore its good that we all take heed to him who is that most sure and living Word of all the Prophets so as to abide in it then will it keep us in the hour of Temptation and Tryal for some which Peter spake of and the Author of that Epistle to the Hebrews spake of who had tasted of the good Word of God and of the Power of the World to come and was clean escaped the Polutions of the World through the true Knowledge of the Lord and Saviour these were again intangled and overcome with Sin to the seperating of their Souls from God and so their Last End was worse than their Beginning for better had it been for us if we had not known the Way of the Lord if after we have known it we turn from the holy Commandment for now is God putting a difference between Cattel and Cattel and between the Sheep and the Goats and Wo to them that dig deep to hide their Counsel from the Lord whose work is in the Dark saying No Eye may see them So consider ye that be for a wide and easie Way that do the Work overly and slightly at home so must you needs do it abroad they that pity not the good in themselves but can live at ease in the Flesh above the Cross of Christ which would mortifie the Deeds of the Flesh such be apt to pity and take part with the bad in others and so the Root of Bitterness which bears Gall and Wormwood springs up apace to the defiling of many for their Vine is of the Vine of Sodom and of the Fields of Gomorrah their Grapes are Grapes of Gall and their Clusters are Bitter And this is the Fruit of that Evil Root and Spirit that is risen up in opposition to the Lord and his holy Will and Way this day who be in the Willfulness and Presumption calling those things that be Good Evil and Idols and as Jeroboam's Calf which be nothing else but Effects of that good which is in the Power and such be as the strong Oaks of Bashan whom the Lord with his stormy Wind and Tempest will break to pieces and come upon them as upon Morter and as the Potter when he treadeth Clay and then shall ye know ye have sinned against the Lord in with standing and slandering his Servants as Apostates and so your Wells will be without Water and your Cloudes without Rain from the Lord your Root will be dried up from beneath and your flourishing Branches which be but in the mixture and not truly grafted into the living Vine they shall wither you shall be as when a Hungry man dreameth he eats but when he awakes he is still Hungry and his Soul within him hath still Appetite or as when a Thirsty man dreameth he drinks but when he awakes he is still Thirsty so shall they all be whatever they have known or seen that fight against Mount Sion for Corah
