The Reuelation of God / and his great Propheatie.

The First Chapiter.

THis is the Re∣uelation [ A] of God / which God / out of his heartie Loue ؛his mostholie Beeinge{punctel} hath vouchsafed to shewe vnto his Ministers / now in thisa 1.1 last Time: and hath brought the∣same {reversed ;}with himself and with the gloriousb 1.2 Try∣umph of the Comminge of his Christ and of all his Sainctes;* 1.3 in Cleernes / to his elected Mini∣ster HN, which witnesseth the Woorde ofc 1.4 God / the Trueth and this Reuelatiō / euen as Hee hath seene and hearde thesame / and as it was shewed vnto him out of Heauen / To-thende that they all which loue God / also seeke Him withd 1.5 whole Heart / and haue a Luste 1.6 to doo his Will / should becom partakers of thesame Cleernes of this hea∣uenlie Reuelation / or inioye thesame· and so vn∣derstande thef 1.7 Wonderful-woorkes of God / both of them which were wrought in times-passed / and which also com-to-passe now in thissameg 1.8 Daye of the Loue.

2. Happie are They / h 1.9 which reade and heare

the Woordes of this Reuelation: and keepe-well by them / all that which is writen therin. For the Timei 1.10 is fulfilled / wherin all thatsame which God {reversed ;}ink 1.11 times-passed; hath opened to his Ministers and Propheates {reversed ;}to com-to-passe in the tocom∣ing-tyme; becometh eauen-now accomplished. It is very true.

[ B] 3. HN Elected of God andl 1.12 his Grace / to a Minister of his holie and gratious Woorde / for to declare in the Light {reversed ;}vnder the Obedience of the Loue;m 1.13 the In∣telligence of the Trueth of God / and the heauenlie Reuelation of the godlie Righteousnes / eauen∣like as God in times-passed promised thesame / and as also it was his Will / that it shouldn 1.14 comtopasse now in the last Daye· and becom allo 1.15 accomplished what-soeuer God hath spoken through his holie Propheates / Angels / and through the Euange∣listes of Christ.

4.* 1.16 To the Louers of the Trueth / which loue the vprightp 1.17 Beeinge of Iesu Christ, and that stande wel-mynded {reversed ;}with all the Sainctes of God; to theq 1.18 Concorde of Heart in the Loue.

5. The Louer 1.19 of God the Father / and the Spirit of his vpright and louelie Beeing / be with you all / in all Peace.

[ C] 6. I thanke the God of Life / in all the Good∣nes of his Loue / for that Hee {reversed ;}eauen as a spirituall and heauenlie Father; hath begotten vs {reversed ;}through Iesus Christ;s 1.20 to his beloued Children / in the hea∣uenlie Beeinge / and replenished vs with al-maner

of spirituallt 1.21 Blessinges of his heauenlie Riches. For thervnto hath Hee chosen vs / and made vs acceptable in his Loue / vnto him / that wee {reversed ;}in thesame Blessinge of his heauenlie Goods; should be holie andv 1.22 vnreproueable before Hym / to the Laude of his Grace and Glorie. Amen.

The Seconde Chap.

I HN your Fellowe-brother in the [ A] Loue of the Trueth / and aa 1.23 Fellowe-wit∣nes {reversed ;}with all the Sainctes of God; of the true Beeinge of God and Christ / was in the Lande PIETAS, for to expresse the Honour and Loue of God / amonge all Those which men ought for to loue.

2. Now whilst I thus {reversed ;}in all Obedience of the Loue; walked in Pietas, I was combred very-much in my Thoughtes· and in the Solitarines of my inwarde Beeinge or Spirit / with the won∣derfull Woorkes of God / for to vnderstande in my Spirit {reversed ;}vnder the Obedience of the Loue; the Wonderful-actes of God. and in what maner-of-sort / God wolde accomplish his Woorkes and his vprightb 1.24 Iudgment, now in the last Time.

3. In thissame Comberment of myne / my Heart becamec 1.25 lighted with Cleernes. and my whole in∣warde Minde / was persed-thorowe with Windes of Life and Delectable-sweetnes.

4. Fardermore / out of thissame Light and sweet Windes of Life / ther appeered vnto mee / a

great, mightie, and glorious Beeinge: Thesame opened my Heart / and spread-fourth my inwarde Minde {reversed ;}with itself; verye wyde and brode: Yea / so wyde / that the whole Heauen and the vniuer∣sall Earth / stoode comprehended therin.

[ B] 5. AFter-that / I sawe / and beholde: The Lorde satt in the Heauē / d 1.26 as in a Seate:* 1.27 and Hee filled the whole Heauen / like-as a Man filleth a Stoole or Seate / wher-in hee sitteth. and with his Feete / Hee reached eauen vnto the Earth / as on his Foote-beanch: and reached-ouer euenso with his Feete / the vniuersall Earth. And thissame Reuelatiō / multiplied itself {reversed ;}to manifolde Shewes; in my Sight: wher-through I humbled my whole Beeinge / before the Lorde and his glorious Maiestie.

6. I reioyced mee also very-much; with great Thankes-geeuinge vnto God; for that {reversed ;}through thesame Reuelation; the Day of the Lorde {reversed ;}e 1.28 which shall endure for euer; was shewed vnto mee for to beholde: and that I had reached or attayned vnto thesame pretiousf 1.29 Tyme / wherin the great Actes of the wonderfull Woorkes of God / were shewed so nakedlie and cleerlie-vnto mee. For with thesame Reuelation of God / ther was shewed and reuealed vnto••••ee / many and manifolde wonderfull Thinges and Powers of God.

[ C] 7. Moreouer / in thissame Reuelation ofg 1.30 the great Glorie of God / and in thissame liuelie De∣monstration or Shewinge of the many and mani∣folde Thinges / both of that which is in Heauen /

and also of that which is on Earth / so came-ther also vnto mee out of thesame heauenlie Beeinge / Testimony-of-trueth, which distinctlie infourmed mee of the Diuersitie of thinges / and resolued mee also {reversed ;}with cleere Vnderstandinge; of the Thinges which I vnderstoode not / & were shewed vnto mee.

8. But trulye / they are all straunge and incre∣dible Thinges / before the Contemners of the hea∣uenlie Woorkes of God / andh 1.31 before all Vnder∣standinges of y^e Wisdom of the Fleash: But before the godliei 1.32 Vnderstandinges / which {reversed ;}vnder the Obedience of the Loue;* 1.33 haue a regarde on the Bee∣ing of God and his Almightines / to a great Ioye in their Spirit / and to a great Thankes-geeuing to the highest God / because that Hee ؛thesame God•• hath manifested his Light / Life / and Wisedom / and the Vnderstandinge of his secreat Woorkes / amonge the Children of Men / vpon the Earth.

9. Moreouer / in all this that I sawe and [ D] hearde / and that was opened vnto mee / I was forced in my Spirit / to write it-all / to-thende that the secreatk 1.34 heauenlie Woorkes of God / mought be also declared amonge all Louers of the Trueth and vnderstanded and loued by them / in their Vn∣derstandinge. And euenso heer-withall / I ende∣uoured myself to write-vp all thesame / eauen so-much as ther was reuealed vnto mee / and as was expedient or profitable to the Children of Men for to knowe therof: and so I wrote in Letters / what I had seene and heard in this Reuelation of God· that Testimony-of-trueth saide vnto mee· & that

I myself had spokē: euen-like as heer-on followeth.

The Thirde Chap.

[ A] NOw when that the Mosthighest begon for to shewe mee thissame his Re∣uelation / in the Lande Pietas: and that I sawe-into the magnificent Powers of his Wonderous-woorkes / so cryed I then to the Lorde / and saide:

2. O wonderfull Power / Spirit / and Wise∣dom: a 1.35 O thou secreat God of Heauen: How vn∣knowen are thy Woorkes / b 1.36 and how secreat is thy Wisdom / before all Wisdoms of the Fleash: and how farre doth the Intelligence of thy holie Spirit / differ from the Wyse of the Worlde and their Scripture-learned!

3. For who is-ther of all Those / thatc 1.37 can vn∣derstande thy Minde / Spirit / or Meaninge / or anywhat of thy Purpose and Counsell: ether-yet finde {reversed ;}with all his Searchinge; the Daye of thy Iudgment / or {reversed ;}through his Studyinge and Practisinge in the Knowledge; comprehend the∣same? Verelie not anyone.

[ B] 4. Therfore {reversed ;}O Lorde; thou art onlie wyse / righteous / d 1.38 and true. For all those whiche 1.39 are good-thinkinge-wise / against Thee and thy Ser∣uice of Loue· andf 1.40 vnbeleeuing towardes thy gra∣tio••s Woorde / and the Testimonies of thy holie Spirit of Loue / together with all those whichg 1.41 are Straungers to thy Beeinge· and not essentialli••

goddedh 1.42 with thee / in their Spirit / or that dispise thesame Codeifyinge or Vnyting-to-god / shall all no-dowt finde themselues begiled / in their good-thinking Vnderstandingei 1.43 or Knowledge {reversed ;}which they suppose / to be a Wisedom of God / or Guift of the holie Spirit; / also stomble therin and fall / and {reversed ;}how knowledgfull / and how wel-learned so-euer they be in the Languages and Scriptures; misse the vpright Trueth and Wisedom of God.

5. But {reversed ;}O my God;k 1.44 Thou art thesame that thou art. In Thee is the Trueth: and thou ma∣••est likewise thesamel 1.45 knowen vnto Thyne / which loue thee.

6. Thou standest firme for euer / vnchaunge∣able or vnmoueable / eauen as am 1.46 Stonie-rocke: For thy Strength / Wisdom / &n 1.47 Purpose / doth ne∣uermore faile. Therfore suerlie / thy Iudgmentes / and all thy Woorkes / o 1.48 are onlie true. For nether in thy Iudgmēt / nor-yet in any of all thy Workes / shalt thou be made-ashamed.

7. But now in thissame Daye / all Fleash of [ C] Adam {reversed ;}which accordinge to the Minde of his fleashlie Vnderstanding / will iudge thy Workes / Wisdom / and Purpose; shalbep 1.49 made-ashamed / and be brought to reproch / before Thee {reversed ;}O God; and before thy Trueth.

8. (Yea / they shall all now {reversed ;}in thissame Daye; which will take vpon them / with their Counsell andq 1.50 Ingenious-prudentie of the Knowledge / to seeke-after / search-out / and vnderstande ether-yet iudge / Gods secreat Counsell / Wisdom / and Will /

ronne-to-an-ende in their Knowledge of God-his Matiers.)

9. For now {reversed ;}O God; in the Reuealinge of thy Trueth {reversed ;}wher-through the Misvnderstandinge of all Men of Adam / becometh witnessed vnto them / and is geeuen them to see-into; they must all needes acknowledge / r 1.51 that th••y haue missed the vpright Vnderstandinge of thy Trueth· and transgressed brutishlie against the Testimonies of thesame / To-thende that they mought euenso confesse their Er∣rour· s 1.52 humble them vnder thy holie Maiestie / and vnder the gratious Woorde of the Seruice of thy Loue. honour thy Glorious-lordlynes·t 1.53 hallowe or magnifie thy Name· and vnderstand and com∣prehende thy Wonderous-woorkes / and the Daye of thy righteous Iudgment / a-right / and accor∣ding to the Trueth.

[ D] 10. O God / that they all wolde now humble themselues vnder Thee / and so heare and beleeue thy Trueth / vnder the Obedience of thy Loue / So should they also then verelie / see andv 1.54 vnder∣stande the Secreatnes of thy Woorkes. and that also thy Woorke / is not broken / butx 1.55 perfect. For if they sawe-into & vnderstoode all thy Woorkes / accordinge to the Trueth / so coulde not also then thy Will / bey 1.56 resisted by them· thy Spirit of Pro∣pheaties /z 1.57 disanulled or queanched-out· nor thy Counsell of Wisdom distrusted. but thy Woorde should in euery-behalf be beleeued· and the Re∣quiringe of thesame {reversed ;}with good-willing Heartes; obedientlie& 1.58 ensued.

11. But now in this Daye of thy Appeering {reversed ;}O God; in thya 1.59 Glorious-maiestie / thou wilt notb 1.60 re∣spect any-man in his Wisdom. nor-yet also make-account of anyones Vnbeleeuingnes: but thou wilt bringe-fourth the Rightc 1.61 with the Trueth: also shewe thy wonderfull Woorkes {reversed ;}which are se∣creat before all earthlie Wyse; to thed 1.62 Littelones and Humble of Heart: and euenso execute thy vp∣right Iudgment {reversed ;}e 1.63 against all Vnderstandinges / Wisdoms / and Scripture-learned of this World; ouer the Worlde. But thesame will soundef 1.64 verie straūge or monsterous before the Eares of all those which vnderstande nor beleeue not {reversed ;}O God; thy Woorkes.

12. Therfore it is suerlie eauen-now {reversed ;}before all [ E] earthlie Vnderstandinges of this Worlde; a verie straunge org 1.65 wonderfull Woorke / that thou {reversed ;}O God; dost woorke and accomplish in thissame Day of thy Loue.h 1.66 For who shall {reversed ;}I saye; beleeue it / when-as it is tolde him?

13. Yea / who is-ther of all the Childrē of Men / * 1.67 that wolde once haue thought such a matier / name∣lie: that thy Life / i 1.68 out of the Death / thy Light / outk 1.69 of the Darknes / thy Vnderstandinge / out of the Simplenes / and thy Wisdom / out of the Foo∣lishnes / should so haue ben made-knowen! and that thou moreouer / out of a foolish People {reversed ;}l 1.70 that was not thy People; woldest prepare thee an acceptable People / that accomplisheth all thy Will: and that thou dost likewise / through thy Power and Almigh∣tines (eauen-like as it in this present Daye appeer∣eth)

bringe thatsame to light / which seemed befor•• all the Eyes of Men / to bem 1.71 vnpossible for to com-to-passe.

The Fourth Chap.

[ A] NOw when-as I had in such-sort spokē-fourth all thissame before the Most-highest / so looked I then vpwardes int•• Heauen / the* 1.72 Seate of the Lorde: which the Godhead so throughlie* 1.73 filled / that ther was no-wheare any emptie Place to be founde / through∣out the whole Heauen. Consideringe now heeron / I thought in my Heart: O supreame Godhead! Thou fillest the whole Heauen. Whea••e is then {reversed ;}I beseech thee; the Habitation or Place of thy Sainctes?

2. Now whilst I thus was combred heer-with∣all / in my Thoughtes / ther appeered vnto mee frō Heauen {reversed ;}out of the Beeinge of the Godhead; Te∣stimony-of-trueth. and saide vnto mee: Thou lookest onlie on the Heauen / the Seate of the Lord, and not {reversed ;}in circuite round-about; on the Multitude of all the Heauens of God-his heauenlie Kingdom / wher-in also God doth liue gloriouslie / and is also all in all in thesame.

[ B] 3. Then turned I about my Sight / both high and lowe / and also lardge round-about: and ther∣withall ther was shewed vnto mee / many Multi∣tudes of thowsand Heauens of thesame great God. And yet God filled neuerthelesse all these his Hea∣uens

/ with his Godhead: and yet it was all one-with-the-other / like-as one Heauen / and as one great glorious God.

4. Then asked I Testimony-of-trueth: What are {reversed ;}I praye thee; all the Thowsandes of these∣same Heauens / wherin God liueth and triumpheth so gloriouslie and through-lightinglie:c 1.74 and that reioyce them all with each-other so triumphantile / in the Light / Woorde / and Life of God: and that also with God {reversed ;}from the Heauen / eauen vnto the Earth;d 1.75 reach euerye-wheare ouer the vniuersall Earth / round-about the Lordes Feete: and yet ne∣uerthelesse {reversed ;}they all together; are ioyned one to-an∣other and one in-another; as one Heauen; eauen vnto the Highest with the Godhead.

5. THen saide Testimony-of-trueth vnto [ C] mee: All the Multitudes of Heauens / which thou seest {reversed ;}as if it were one Heauen; so ioy∣ned-together in each-other. and yet notwithstand∣inge streatch-out themselues / ouer the vniuersall Earth / vpon the Earth: That is the spirituall hea∣uenlie e 1.76 Bodie / with his manye Members. name∣lie / all the Sainctes or Holyones of God / f 1.77 wherin God dwelleth and liueth.

6. Which one Bodie {reversed ;}with the manie Multi∣tudes of his Members;g 1.78 raigneth with God: and beareth euenso his Dominion with God. Therfore it is namedh 1.79 ISRAEL.

7. Thissame heauenlye Bodie {reversed ;}with all hys Members; is also iustifiedi 1.80 or clensed from the Sinne. and is likewise {reversed ;}to his Saluation and

Ioye in the euerlasting Life;k 1.81 annoynted with the Holie-spirit of God. Therfore it is alsol 1.82 called / Christian.

8. When I now had once hearde and vnder∣stoode thissame / I marueiled ther-at very-much: and demaunded yet farder / whether that those∣same Holyones / were the Generations of Abrahā, and the Children of God and Christ/m 1.83 according to the Promises of God the Father / and the Te∣stimonies of y^e Scriptures / of the holie Propheates and Euangelistes.

[ D] 9. THen saide Testimony-of-trueth vnto mee: Yea / they are the-same. Howbeit / the Woorking of God touching These / hath euer∣moren 1.84 rested-secreat before the Wise of y^e Worlde: but according to the Will of God the heauenlie Father / they haue ben alwaies; through his Light of Life / and of the heauenlie Trueth; shewed and made-knowen / vnto theo 1.85 Humble and Single-mindedones / which {reversed ;}with whole Heart;p 1.86 had a Lust to accomplish the Will of the Lorde.

10. Then saide I: O my Lorde / infourme mee I praye thee / in what-sort / and also from whence / all these Multitudesq 1.87 of Sainctes / are com or growen to such-amaner of heauenlie Beeinge: and how that the Worlde / and all Generations of the Earth / r 1.88 shall obtaine their Blessinge and Salua∣tion / which is promised vnto them / accordinge to the Testimonie of the holie Scripture. For in my Thoughtes, I am also combred heer-with.

The V. Chap.

AFter-that spake Testymonye-of-trueth, [ A] and saide: Consider-well then on my Woordes: Thea 1.89 Secreat-misterie of thesame {reversed ;}wher-after thou demaundest; shall be declared vnto Thee / aboue Manye in this Worlde. For thy Heart hath forsaken the earthlie Consumeablenes / and {reversed ;}entring into theb 1.90 Waye to the Immortalitie; powred-fourth his Vnderstan∣dinge / before the Trueth of God / for to compre∣hende Wisdom / and the Thinges / wherthrough thec 1.91 Blessinge and Saluation of Men is to be obtayned.

2. Beholde / God hath in times-passed / d 1.92 fore∣seene and elected to him an holie People / out of Abraham, for to seale or sett-fast his Couenaunt {reversed ;}to a Token of his People; in thesame / To-thend that Hee / through thesame People {reversed ;}to y^e Blessing of all Generations of the Earth; wolde establish his Promises / made vnto Abraham. Which Pro∣mises of God {reversed ;}through Abraham and all Gods holie Propheates and Euangelistes; haue not he∣therto in any One; of all whatsoeuer hath ben pro∣mised by God;e 1.93 once fayled / but it is all com-to-passe. Howbeit / the Lordes Minde and his Pur∣pose {reversed ;}what Hee therwith wolde accomplish / at the very-last; hathf 1.94 remayned secreat before Manye.

3. Notwithstanding / it is permitted mee / that I {reversed ;}touching That-thinge which hathg 1.95 hetherto rested-secreat / before the Vnderstandinges of Men;

should vncouer the Minde of the Lorde· and also declare the Trueth {reversed ;}of thesame; vnto Thee HN.

[ B] 4. COnsider and note-well: The Promises of the Lorde stretch heere-vnto / namelie / that God {reversed ;}out of the Seede of Abraham; wolde reuealeh 1.96 his holie Minde / Will / and Purpose / on the Earth· and bring-fourth {reversed ;}through thesame; thei 1.97 Blessinge of all Generations of the Earth. Which Seede of Abraham {reversed ;}for the Promises cause; was first procreatedk 1.98 after the Fleash / vpon the Earth. Therfore was also thesame Generation {reversed ;}in his former Procreatiō;l 1.99 ISRAEL after y^e Fleash.

5. The-whilst now that this saide Israel / did yeat beare the fore-passing Procreation according to the Fleash / in him: and that also many People / did not knowe nor vnderstand y^e heauenlie Trueth of God according to the Spirit {reversed ;}wherin the pro∣mised Blessing becometh inherited; / So hath the Lorde {reversed ;}the God of Abraham{punctel}m 1.100 geeuen a Lawe or Ordinaunce vnto the People of Israel. and out of thesame Generation / n 1.101 ordayned also vnto him a Priesthod: wher-vnder that they (the-whylst that they were Fleash and fleashlie-minded / and had not yeat attayned vnto the Seconde-birth / o 1.102 accor∣ding to the Spirit and heauenlie Trueth)p 1.103 were sustayned· and kept through thesame / from the Estraunginge from their God / till that the Time was fulfilled / that God {reversed ;}q 1.104 through the Mightie-power of his Holie-spirit; procreated his true Bee∣ing and spirituall Seede {reversed ;}which tooke on him the Seede of Abraham; out of the fore-mentioned

Seede of Abraham: And euenso / out of thesame Seede of Abraham / God manifested his beloued Sonne / in Israel, euen-like as God {reversed ;}through his holie Propheates; hadr 1.105 fore-saide and promised thesame / To-thend that Hee wolde euēso {reversed ;}through thesame Seede of his spirituall and heauenlie Pro∣creation; confirme or fulfill {reversed ;}accordinge to his Trueth; thes 1.106 Blessinge and Saluation / which God had promised / out of the Faith of Abraham.

6. BEholde / This wolde God: and the∣same [ C] was Gods Minde and Will / through his Promises / to-thende that at the last / his vpright Procreation according to the Spirit [namelie / thet 1.107 Frute of his Loynes] should becom manifested· also hearde and beleeued of all the Generations of Mankinde / to their Salua∣tion and Blessing / according to the Promises· and they likewise {reversed ;}through thesame;v 1.108 renewed in their Spirit and Minde. Which vpright Procreation of the Godlynes / cometh out of y^e Faith / x 1.109 through the Faith / and in the Faith of Abraham.

7. These Promisesy 1.110 were made to Abraham / ereuer that ther was a Seede borne vnto him. But afterwarde / when-as Abraham had once receaued the Promise of the Seede / and that the Frute could liue / z 1.111 ther was a Sonne brought-fourth vnto him / namelie, Isaac.

8. Howbeit / thissame former Procreation ac∣cordinge to the Fleash {reversed ;}a 1.112 whose Children were not free / but were all vnder the Lawe; had the Fore-goinge / andb 1.113 increased them to a great

People / vnder the Lawe of the Lorde.

[ D] 9. Vnder which saide Lawe {reversed ;}for their Captiui∣ties cause / vnder the Sinne & vnder the Mindes of the Fleash; they were also subiect or capty∣ued / till that the Time wasc 1.114 fulfilled / that the Lordes heauenlie Procreation ؛y^• Seede of Abra∣ham accordinge to the Spirit? was borne ether brought-fourth on the Earth / d 1.115 and euenso mani∣fested itself {reversed ;}of the Stocke of Dauid; out-of the Faith of Abraham, to the Blessing of all the Ge∣nerations of the Earth: Wher-through the Spirit and Minde of the Lorde {reversed ;}how his Counsell and Will was of thesame; was made-manifest in Is∣rael. and wher-through ther was also published to thesame People Israel /e 1.116 the Releassing or Free∣makinge from their Captiuitie.

The VI. Chap.

[ A] MOreouer / when God now had begotten his Sonne / so did not thesame Sonne / ؛the verytrue Seede of the God of Heauen? take on him the Seede of the Heathen / that sinfull People after the Fleash.a 1.117 but the Seede of Abrahā / that vpright People accor∣ding to the Fleash [namelie / of Abraham / that was of the Howse of Dauid· and vnrebukeable in the Lawe of the Lorde] to-thende that God wolde also bringe the inwarde Righteousnes according to the Spirit [which is / to be incorporated {reversed ;}b 1.118 accor∣ding to the inward Man; into y^e Sonne of God]

to thesame Generation: and that euenso all Gene∣rations of the Earth / should {reversed ;}ther-through; ob∣taine theirc 1.119 Blessinge andd 1.120 Rest of Life / accor∣dinge to the Promises. For that is thee 1.121 vpright Righteousnes and Holynes in the Spirit: wher∣vnto God hath chosen the Seede of Abraham· and loued all Heathen.

2. See / eauen-thus in all thissame / and for the Birthes cause of y^e Seede of Abraham {reversed ;}which was borne after the Fleash· andf 1.122 captiued vnder the Lawe / and for-that-cause vnderstoode not the Minde and Will of the Lorde; so hath God {reversed ;}euen out of the Fulnes of his Wisedom / Grace / and Mercie; likewise vnder theg 1.123 Lawe / com-tow∣ardes or mett-with after the Fleash / thesame Seede of Abraham, accordinge to the Frailtie of his fleashlie Vnderstandinge. and hath likewise / by thesame Seede of Abraham after the Fleash / of the Seede of Dauid {reversed ;}also accordinge to the Fleash; begotten hish 1.124 onlie Sonne. andi 1.125 sett Him also vnder the Lawe / to-thentent that his Lawe should not bek 1.126 broken, disanulled, or for∣saken. but should remaine-of-force by all People {reversed ;}so-longe as they yeat caryed thel 1.127 Foreskinne of the Fleash before their Heartes / and remained fleashlie minded / or were not com to them 1.128 Incor∣poratinge with God and Christ; in her vpright Seruice or Office· and the People ben 1.129 euenso sustayned thervnder / vntill that {reversed ;}in the Obedience of the Lawe; the Foreskinne of the sinfull Fleash / beo 1.130 remoued from their Heartes. and that also {reversed ;}in

the Beleef and Righteousnes of Abraham; the spirituall Seede of God {reversed ;}with spirituall and hea∣uenlie Mindes; became procreated or borne out of Heauen / in them: and that euenso thep 1.131 Kingdom of the God of Heauens {reversed ;}full of all louelie Beeinge; were com vnto them / in the Spirit.

[ B] 3. Notwithstanding / albeit now that thissame Sonne of God / was thus vnto the People of Is∣rael {reversed ;} q 1.132 out of the Seede of Dauid / according to the Fleash; begotten as a Sonne of Man / vnder the Lawe: and had also the Fourme of ar 1.133 Ser∣uant of the Lawe / Yet hath Hee neuertheles ex∣pressed / that hees 1.134 was free· and {reversed ;}according to the Spirit;t 1.135 a Sonne of God / or {reversed ;} out-of the Seede of God of the holie Spirit;v 1.136 the very-like Beeing of God his heauenlie Father. Howbeit / Heex 1.137 was obedient {reversed ;}in all; vnto his Father. and also taught vnto his Bretheren after the Fleash / y^e true Passe∣ouer out of the Fleash / to God in the Spirit. and is also first / y 1.138 gon the Way himself before them / which {reversed ;}through y^e seconde Birthz 1.139 from the Death; leadeth or bringeth to the euerlastinge Life.

4. Also Hee hath {reversed ;}accordinge to the Fleash; borne all Contempt / a 1.140 Curssing / and the Sinnes of the Worlde. and suffered the Reproch / that Hee wasb 1.141 iudged, condemned, and killed {reversed ;} eauen as an Vngodly-person; of the Children of Men / that could not away with Him. Howbeit / through the Mightie-power of God / Hee isc 1.142 risen-vpp a∣gaine from the Death: and is euenso {reversed ;}by his Fa∣ther; begotten againe; from the Death / and made

lyuing / after the Spirit.

5. Fardermore / after his Resurrection from [ C] the Death / Hee hathd 1.143 manifested himself vnto Hys / lyuinglie: but not so / to the Worlde / nor to her Wyse / that could not away with Him after the Fleash. but to his Disciples / whiche 1.144 were becom Partakers with Him [that is: with Christ after the Fleash] of his Passion / Mortification / and Death: and kept euenso the Phase or Pascha with Him: which is / the Mortifyinge of the Sinne / and of thef 1.145 fleashlie Lustes and Desires / and to passe-thorowe the Passe-ouer with Christ, out of the Fleash / to God in the Spirit.

6. Through thissame Passe-ouer / these Disci∣ples were alsog 1.146 Witnesses of the Suffering and Death of Christ, and of his Resurrectiō from the Death / or Making-aliue accordinge to the Spirit.

7. Also they haue thus published Him / amonge all People. and confessed that thesame Sonne of God / is the right Messias orh 1.147 Christ, and the true Kinge of Israel and Iuda. andi 1.148 annoynted therto / by God himself / and ordayned to ak 1.149 Saui∣our of the People: and that they all {reversed ;}l 1.150 which beleeue in his Name; should through Him obtaine y^e Bles∣singe of the Promises / and the Saluation in God.

The VII. Chap.

THissame Sonne of God / Iesus [ A] or Sauiour / which wasa 1.151 begotten out of Heauen {reversed ;}to a Seede of Blessinge; to the

Howse of Israel and to the Howse of Iuda, is likewise {reversed ;}after his Resurrection from the Death; receaued-vppb 1.152 of his Father / into the heauenlie Beeinge. and in-sort of the fleashlie Procreatinge / was vnfruitfull on the Earth: Wherin that the Lawe after the Fleash / was not fulfilled. But-yet well / after the Spirit. For in the Lawe ther stan∣deth writen:c 1.153 None amonge you shall be vn∣fruitfull.

2. Wher-out now it seemeth according to the Fleash / as-though his Genealogie {reversed ;}after the Pro∣creation of the Generations of Israel;d 1.154 ceassed with Him / or was at-an-end in Israel. But that is not so / after the Spirit.

3. For Hee hath {reversed ;}out of the heauenlie Beeing; eauen from the Right-hande of God his Father / powred-fourthe 1.155 his holie Spirit / vpon all those which beleeued in Him / and were his obedient Dis∣ciples: and is euenso {reversed ;}through thesame Seede of his holie Spirit; becom very fruitfull / f 1.156 to manye thowsande Children of his Holyones / in the hea∣uenlie Beeing: First / in Israel. and then fourth / amonge allg 1.157 Heathen / through the Beleef of A∣braham.

[ B] 4. BEhold: Thissame Sonne of God {reversed ;}which is a Beeinge / Light / Life / and Woorde / withh 1.158 God his Father; and y^e manyi 1.159 Multitudes of his Sainctes / is the heauenlie Bodie / which raignethk 1.160 or hath his Dominion / with God: and is named Israel and Christian. And Those-same are also the Multitudes of the manye thowsande

Heauens / which thou hast seene so triumphantlie. All which these Sainctes / or Members of thesame spirituall and heauenlie Bodie / are begotten of the Sonne of God (eauen as I haue tolde thee heere) / and arel 1.161 becom to so many thowsande Sainctes / in the heauenlie Beeinge.

5. MOreouer / in that thou hast also seene / that these-same Multitudes of Heauēs / did also reach euerye-wheare ouer the vniuersall Earth ؛them 1.162 Beanch of the Lordes Feete?: That is: Those-same Sainctes ؛Israel and Christian? shall now in this Daye of y^e Loue {reversed ;}as true Priestes orn 1.163 Elders of the holie Vnderstandinge / and as Kinges {reversed ;}or wise Gouernours; raigne with God and his Righteousnes / euerlastinglieo 1.164 vpon the Earth: and all Generations of the Earth / shall euenso {reversed ;}through thesame Sainctes; obtainep 1.165 their Blessinge according to the Promises of God / and Testimonies of the holie Scriptures.

6. BEholde: This is thesame Sonne of [ C] God / which now at the last time / name∣lie / in this Daye of the Loue / appeereth in his Cominge-againe {reversed ;}with God his Father / q 1.166 and with all his Children and Sainctes; verie glori∣ous and triumphantlie / to Iudgment / with Righteousnes. Wher-with also Hee now expres∣seth / that his Name / is not put-out in Israel. but shall continuer 1.167 in Israel for euer-and-euer: Also that the Lawe becometh not broken / nether through Him / nor-yet through his Children or Sainctes· buts 1.168 fulfilled and accomplished: and that God his

Father / hath had the Power {reversed ;}through y^e Sonne; to raise-vpp / out-of the dead Stones / and out-of the brutish Heathen / t 1.169 Children vnto Abraham.

7. See / this is the Fruitfulnes of Christ / the Sonne of the God of Abraham. Which Fruit∣fulnes {reversed ;}to an Increasinge of his Holyones / and to many-more Thowsandes of his Children; shall now likewise in thissamev 1.170 last Daye, com-to-passe or take-effect, vnder the Obedience of his Loue: and that altogether after the former sort / like-as it came-to-passe {reversed ;}through his holie Spirit; in times-passed / namelie / out-of the Beleef / and in the Be∣leef of Abraham.

8. Which new-begotten Children / do all {reversed ;}tho∣rough thesame Christ;x 1.171 obtayne the Purginge of their Sinnes / and becomy 1.172 Coenheritours in the Testamentes of God / and of y^e holie Fathers / according to the Promises. For their Righteous∣nes / Faithfulnes / and Trueth / shall now {reversed ;}in this∣same Daye of the Loue; enlardge itself / so wide as the Worlde is / z 1.173 to-thende that it all {reversed ;}what-soeuer is writen of Christ; mought euenso becom fulfilled in the Loue.

[ D] 9. WHen I now vnderstoode all this {reversed ;}that was saide vnto mee; according to the Trueth / I reioyced mee very-much / in my Spirit: chiefliest / for that I had heard this Resolution / with so cleere Distinction· and& 1.174 seene the Daye of the Lorde / cominge ouer the Worlde. and that in thesame / the vniuersalla 1.175 Earth should be iudged with Righteousnes·b 1.176 gouerned by the Sainctes

of God· and all Vngodlie / rooted-out from the Earth / c 1.177 and becom condemned.

10. Moreouer / in all thissame / I lauded and thanked the God of Heauē / for his great Loue and Mercie / which Hee in this last Time {reversed ;}d 1.178 that is full of all Iniquitie; is extending ouer vs Littelones and Poore: and for that Hee also reuealeth to vs so nakedlie / and letteth vs see / e 1.179 to what a Glori∣ous-dignitie / He hath created, chosen, and also {reversed ;}through his Christ; called the manlie Genera∣tion: and ceasseth not yeat presentlie in this last Daye {reversed ;}through the holie Spirit of his Loue; to call and intirelie-bidde them / To-thende that they all now whichf 1.180 loue the Righteousnes / and which areg 1.181 laden with many Sinnes / or are fallen into manifolde Iniquities / mought yeath 1.182 turne them· and becomi 1.183 incorporated {reversed ;}to their Preseruation and Saluation; into the louelie Beeing of God.

The VIII. Chap.

AT the end of this my Thankes-gee∣uinge [ A] vnto God {reversed ;}in Thadmiration of the great Grace / which God expresseth now in thissame Daye; I cryed vnto God / which satt in hisa 1.184 Stoole and liueth for euer. and saide:

2. O Lorde / Lorde ؛thou God and Father of all Heauens? thou which comest now in the last Daye / with so many thowsandeb 1.185 Sainctes / in so great Triumph and Glorie / for to iudgec 1.186 the Compasse of y^e whole Earth / with Righteousnes:

and dost yeat in thesame Daye of thy Iudgment {reversed ;}to thed 1.187 Blessing of all Generations of the Earth; calle 1.188 and bidde all People {reversed ;}to a Reformation of them touchinge their Sinnes / and for to becom cleansed from the Iniquitie; vnto thee / vnder the Obedience of thy Loue!

3. What a special-thinge is this {reversed ;}O Lorde; that thou eauen-yeat in this present Daye (wher∣in trulie the Sinnef 1.189 is clomme-vpp eauen to the very-highest and in the presumpteoust-degree / and all the Children of Men so whollie drowned or stiffled therin / and so diepeg 1.190 sonken in thesame) shewest-fourth thy great Grace and Mercie / and dost call and bidde all Men {reversed ;}through thy heartie Loue; to the Purging of their Sinnes / and to the Seateh 1.191 of thy glorious Maiestie / to-thende that they mought not faile at any-hande to be warned for the auoyding of the Destruction / i 1.192 and of the Condemnation of the Vngodlie· alsok 1.193 refourme them touchinge the Sinne· and liue in thyl 1.194 Loue euerlastinglie.

[ B] 4. O God / this is now thy great Mercie ouer vs: For out of the Fulnes of thy Grace / thou lettest vs now see them 1.195 Defection of the Man from thy vpright Beeinge / and from the glorious Bew∣tie of thy Sumpteous-garnishinge.

5. Ouer-and-aboue that / thou lettest vs see the wicked andn 1.196 horrible Beeinge of the Sinne / which wee; eauen as Men distraught; haue feruently-loued· ando 1.197 serued thesame with our Mindes and Vnderstandinges. and incorporated our-selues so

whollie ther-into / that wee by that occasion / haue not esteemed Thee {reversed ;}O God; nor-yet thy Righte∣ousnes / for anything-worth: and yet thou {reversed ;}in more-aboundaunce of thy Grace; profferest thy Loue / to∣gether with thy Power and Mightines / vnto vs / for to renewe vs {reversed ;}through thep 1.198 outflowing Water∣streames of thy gratious Woorde / and Testimo∣nies of thy holie Spirit / and Seruice of Loue; in our Vnderstandinge: and so to release vs {reversed ;}in the Obedience of thy Loue; from the Iniquitie / to rayse vs vpp from the Death of Sinne / q 1.199 and to make vs lyuinge againe in Thee.

6. This is now assuredlie {reversed ;}O God; a great [ C] Grace / yea / euen a superaboundant Grace / that it so pleaseth thee now in thissame Daye / tor 1.200 procre∣ate thy Children {reversed ;}through the holie Spirit of the Loue of thy Christ; out of the Sinfullest,s 1.201 Vn∣cleanest, and Ignorantest of all: and that thou moreouer / adioynest thosesame Childrē of thy Loue {reversed ;}as thy Seede of Abraham, and as Fellowe-bre∣theren of Israel; to the Howse of Iacob, and ma∣kest them glorious with Israel.

7. At thissame great Grace of thine / extended so louelie ouer all sinfull Generations {reversed ;}wherby they mought without faile / becom ridde andt 1.202 saued from their Sinnes· and preserued from the hor∣rible Destruction; I cannot {reversed ;}O God; wonder sufficientlie.

8. WHen-as I now had ended this my Talking / before the Most highest / then spake Testimony-of-trueth againe vnto mee / and

saide: Wonder not thou so greatlie at the great Loue / Grace / and Mercie of God / extended ouer the Children of Men: For God isv 1.203 full of all Grace and Mercie: but wonder thou rather that the Man / in all thissame remayneth sox 1.204 hardned of Heart & Minde / that heey 1.205 respecteth not Gods proffered Grace / and his intire or heartie Loue / to his Preseruation: but contemneth thesame / and disdayneth the Louelynes of the Peace / or maketh himself vnworthie of thesame: and euenso chuseth to beare {reversed ;}in the wicked Kinde of the vngodlie Bee∣ing; thez 1.206 Miserie of the Vngodlie. and to inherit all Vnluck / Death / Hell / and Condemnation / a 1.207 in the hellish Fire / rather then thatsame louelie Bee∣inge of God / which is proffered vnto him / in the Seruice of the Loue.

[ D] 9. Then saide I: Verelie {reversed ;}my Lorde; The∣same doth also cause me for to wonder not a-little. But notwithstanding / albeit ther are many Dispisers to be found / which contemne Gods profferedb 1.208 Grace· his safe-making Seruice of Loue· and his heauenlie Woorkesc 1.209 in the Spirit· as also the Testimonies of his holie Spirit of Loue (wher∣with they prepare thed 1.210 Condemnation vnto them∣selues) yet see I neuertheles / that y^e Loue of God / and Fauour of Grace / remaineth still ouer the Man: and that the Mans Destruction and Con∣demnation (although the Man {reversed ;}by reason of the Iniquitie;e 1.211 is Gods Enemie)f 1.212 is greeuous vnto Him / ether pitieth him. For with y^e great Pacience of God extended ouer the Man / are theg 1.213 Vessels

of Wrath brought-fourth / to Condemnation. And that is it which moueth mee for to wonder.

10. Yet notwithstandinge / I reioyce mee also againe / in the Mercie of God / and for hish 1.214 great Longe-sufferinge: Wher-through yet Certen do turne them from the Iniquitie / and euenso {reversed ;}vnder the Obedience of the Loue;i 1.215 respect-well the Grace of God / to their Saluation.

11. Therfore trulie is thissame Time {reversed ;}before all [ E] those which haue a right regarde thervnto; a pre∣tious andk 1.216 godlie Time / of aboundaunce of Grace. For I see / that God doth now in thissame Daye / accept or receaue the most-abhominable Sinners {reversed ;}which are vnworthie of any Grace; verye gra∣tiouslie {reversed ;}l 1.217 in the Repentaunce for their Sinnes; in his Loue / also forgeeueth their Sinnes / and accepteth them worthy / for to liue with Him {reversed ;}in the Communialtie of the Loue of his Holyones; inm 1.218 all louelie Righteousnes.

12. This do wee now beholde {reversed ;}right euidentlie; with our Eyes / that God doth now {reversed ;}in thissame Daye of his Loue; set-vpp his louelie Righteous∣nes amonge the most-abhominable Sinners. and farder doth {reversed ;}in the Seruice of his Loue; accom∣plish That / which; in appeeraunce;n 1.219 seemeth vn∣possible for to com-to-passe / so that it cometh-to-passe or taketh-effect. Thissame is {reversed ;}assuredlie; verytrue / and a superaboundant Grace of God.

The IX. Chap.

[ A] O God / how bountifull art thou {reversed ;}in this Daye of thy Loue;* 1.220 ouer all those which loue Thee / for thy Righteousnes∣ses cause! For those-same (albeit that they haue inherited thea 1.221 Condemnation {reversed ;}in their Conscience; for the Sinnes cause· and so feele or tast the hellish Fire and all Indignation / euen-like as ther appertaineth to the Vngodlie / or as they are worthie of thesame) dost thoub 1.222 leade-fourth out of all their Miserie / and cleansest them from all their Sinnes: lettinge them tast and feele the De∣lectable-sweetnes of thy heauenlie Beeinge.

2. Thou bearest also those-same before thy Bo∣som /c 1.223 in thine Armes: and bringest them / as thy be∣loued Sheepe {reversed ;}d 1.224 whom thou hast founde strayinge· and allured againe vnto thee / through the Seruice of thy Loue; to the vpright constant Sheepe / in thy Howse of Israel.

3. Therfore must I yeat saye {reversed ;}as before; that God doth now in thissame Daye {reversed ;}through the o∣uerflowinge Grace of his Loue / and through the Omnipotentie of his mostholie Beeinge; bringe-fourth the Purest / out of the Most-vncleane / the Liuingest / out of the Most-deadlie / and the Sa∣uedest / out of the Most-condemned: and maketh e∣uenso of his cheefest Enemies / e 1.225 his loueliest Frindes: also bringeth those that were most-fardest from Him, most-neerest vnto Him: and they which haue ben {reversed ;}f 1.226 euen as vnfaithfull Members of an vnfaith∣full Espowsed-wife; most-vnfaithfull vnto Him / Those doth Hee now make faithfull / g 1.227 and accept∣eth

or receaueth them for his Best-beloued.

4. WHo shoulde haue thought that an adul∣terous [ B] whoorish Wife / coulde by any∣meanes h 1.228 haue obtained such a Grace at her Hus∣bandes handes / as that Shee (inasmuch as shee {reversed ;}with her whoorish Lustes and vnchast Desires; had turned her awaye from her Husbande / i 1.229 and committed her Whordom with so many Straun∣gers) shoulde bee receaued againe of her Hus∣bande / for such a beloued Wife. and that Hee should let her knowe {reversed ;}in the Seruice of his Loue; so throughlie his Minde and Will: Yea / sok 1.230 to hange or addict his Heart & Loue on her againe / as if shee had neuer ben turned-away from Him.

5. Trulie / this is to be reconed for a speciall and an aboundant Grace / wherin men haue greatlie to wonder. For who should any-waye haue thought / that an adulterous Wife / shoulde in such-sort haue ben cleansed from her Whoordom· and made so faithfull and meete {reversed ;}in the Obedience of the Re∣quiring of the Seruice of Loue; for to bring-fourth all good Frutes?

6. NOw with this my Wonderinge heere∣at [ C] / I stayed mee in my Talke: but the Sight of myne Eyes / was euermore fixed on the great Reuelation of God: and I tooke good-heed / to all the heauenlie Sightes / that were shewed vnto mee.

7. But when I had a little heald mee still heer∣in / then spake Testimony-of-trueth vnto mee / and saide: Rest thyself now from all this Won∣deringe

/ in thy Thoughtes: and take good-heede vnto all that which is shewed thee heere / in the Lande Pietas. For in thesame / God will yeat re∣ueale vnto thee and let thee see / manye secreat Thinges / l 1.231 which haue neuer ben seene of Mans Eyes / nor heard of his Eares.

[ D] 8. For-that-cause / m 1.232 holde thee still now before the Lorde / and be bolde / and feare not: but haue a good regarde vnto all that which becometh shew∣ed vnto thee heere / of the secreat Woorkes of God / that thou mayst rightlie knowe & well vnderstande all thesame. For the Minde of the Trueth of all thissame / shall not be kept-secreat from Thee / nor from anye of all those which are one Heart and Minde with thee / butn 1.233 be all made-knowen / and declared accordinge to the Trueth.

9. Heerwith I thanked the Lorde with Ioye / for all thissame great Grace extended ouer all Peo∣ple that loue the Trueth: and I endeuoured myself for to doo euenso / as ther was saide vnto mee.

The X. Chap.

[ A] AFter this Sayinge of Testimony-of-trueth, I looked-about ouer all the Heauens / as ouer aa 1.234 very-great Moun∣taine. Also I looked downe al-ouer the vniuersall Earth. and beholde: On the Earth / ther were euery-wheare many littleb 1.235 Hilles: as also besides that / many Valleis or Lowe-places.

2. Now as I looked vpwardes into y^e Heauēs

I sawe by the Multitudes of manye Heauens / a very-mightie and stedfastc 1.236 Peace / and ad 1.237 stronge Loue / which was not to be broken nor rent. and a faire Light of the Daye {reversed ;}of an exceeding passinge Cleernes; whiche 1.238 neuer chaunged / and after the which also no Night ensued.

3. But as I looked downe on the Earth / I sawe and heard by all y^e Multitude of little Hilles / alwayes a great Sounde of a Hurringe-noyze / withf 1.239 much Variaunce and Dissention: And that for the most-part / because that each-one of the little Hilles, wolde inforce him to be the best and lord∣liest on the Earth.

4. Also ther was by them all / verie-little Light. For those-same Lightes which they had by them / were all of little Light / and of small Power. and also verye chaungeable into Darknesses. And for that cause also / the Darknesses or Nightes / were theare much-more and longer / then the Lightes or Dayes.

5. After that I had once throughlie-vewed [ B] these chaungeable Lightes / and the Vnpeaceable∣nes and Stowtnes of the little Hilles on y^e Earth / and considered well theron / I turned my Sight againe to that one very-greatg 1.240 Mountaine of the Multitudes of many Heauens / which were toge∣ther with each-other / so whollie peaceable and con∣formablie-vnyted with the Godhead.

6. NOw as I considered heeron / I sawe. and beholde: This greath 1.241 Mountaine of all Heauens with the whole Deitie / opened it∣self

abrode verie wide and lardge: and ther-out ther came One fourth / i 1.242 like-vnto a Woman / whose Bodie was eauen as a Gods Bodie / or as a spiri∣tuall heauenlie Mans.

7. Thissame gaue-fourth her-self so great and glorious / that shee stretched-out her-self ouer all Heauens / and also in all Heauens: and shee was and remained consubstantiated with the Deitie / and with all Heauens. And with the Cleernes of her Bodie, shee gaue-light in all Heauens / and ouer the vniuersall Earth. for her Bodie wask 1.243 in Cleernes / brighter then the Sunne.

[ C] 8. AFter-that I sawe / and beholde: Out of thissame Woman / ther came-downe from the great Mountaine / a very-strongel 1.244 and vehement Winde / and blewe with a vehement Power on the Earth: in such-sort / that the Earth and all Hilles on the Earth / m 1.245 trembled therat.

9. Moreouer / this vehement or firce Winde / intermelled itselfn 1.246 amonge all the Hilles / on the Earth:o 1.247 and brake them all to-peeces / and ground them to small Poulder or Dust.

10. This Dust spred-abrode itself {reversed ;}as a drye or barren Sande; al-ouer the Valleis or Lowe-pla∣ces / and ouer all the Fatt-places of the Earth. Wher-of the Earth became altogether drye / p 1.248 and vnfruitfull of Corne:q 1.249 in such-sort / that {reversed ;}by that occasion; the People {reversed ;}which inhabited the Earth; were very-sore afflicted with Hunger and Thirst: and suffred also in-part / great and deadlie Smart.

11. When I now had well behelde thissame /

I mourned greatlie ouer the Miserie of the Peo∣ple / that inhabited the Earth. For I pitied much their Hunger and Thirst.r 1.250 and that ther was no Corne nor Bread any-wheare on the Earth / to the Satisfyinge of their Hunger / nor Water to the Quenching of their Thirst.

The XI. Chap.

AFter-that I sawe. and beholde: [ A] Thissame Woman / that was so bright and glorious / in all the Heauens / opened her Mouth: and there-out flowed / a 1.251 the Woorde of God / and the trueb 1.252 Bread and Wa∣ter c 1.253 of Life / for to feede and to refreash all hungrie and thirstie People.

2. With thesame Woorde / shee cryed {reversed ;}with lowde Voice; to all hungrie and thirstie People on the Earth / to-thende that they all should harken vnto the Distinction of her Voice· and {reversed ;}to all their Consolation;d 1.254 doo ther-after· and so becom satis∣fied with her Bread and Water of Life. But of all those which dwelled on the Earth / ther were very feawe which wolde harken vnto her Voice. and yet manye feawer that wolde doo ther-after. Neuer∣thelesse her Voice wase 1.255 verie sweet and louelie: and her Voice sounded euen-thus / and saide:

3. COm hether to Mee / f 1.256 all yee hungrie and thirstie Soules / so shall yee then finde all that by Mee / which yee desire. For by Mee is the Bread / vnto Life / g 1.257 for to feede all hungrie Heartes

ther-with. and theh 1.258 Water of Refreashinge / for to releeue all thirstie Soules ther-with.

4. Com hether now all I pray you / who / or of what Nation of People so-euer yee be. For by Mee is all Sweetnes / i 1.259 Milke / Honnie / Wyne / and Oyle. also all Riches / and Ioye / and ther-to / the euerlasting Life.

[ B] 5. HOwbeit / in all thissame / the People wolde not heare nor beleeue this louelie Voice: butk 1.260 hardened their Heartes somuch-the-more ther-against: and withdrewe them from thissame liuinge Voice / that spake vnto them from Heauen. Andl 1.261 refusinge the proffered Grace / they turned them to the Wyse of the Earth / which also cryed all alyke verie-lowde vnto them: Howbeit / with Diuision against each other.

6. And although that these Wyse of the Earth / had thus {reversed ;}eueryone against each-other; contrary Mindes / and diuided Vnderstandinges / yet cryed they all neuerthelesse eauen-alike {reversed ;}as with one-ma∣ner of Voice; and saide:

7. Fetch Bread / fetch Bread / heere out of these our Maundes. and eate:m 1.262 Fetch Water / fetch Water / heere out of these our Pitchers. and drinke: and be one with Vs. Turne not yourselues to any other Bread nor Water / that yee be not ther / through seduced.

8. But {reversed ;}alas;n 1.263 they had all emptie Maundes / and voyde Pitchers / that had nothinge in them. For-that-cause also / the poore People remained whollie destitute and vnsatisfied / both of Bread

and Water:o 1.264 and vnderstoode ne perceaued not / where the Satisfying of their Hunger / y^e Quench∣ing of their Thirst / the Comfort of their Life / nor-yet the Appeasment of their Heartes / was to be founde.

9. MOreouer thesame Woman cryed with [ C] lowde Voice / out of Heauen. and saide: Harken to Mee / and to the Requiring of my ser∣uiceable Woorde / O yee foolish People: and turne not about yourselues / to your earthlie Wyse / for to heare them. For by them ther is not any Bread / thatp 1.265 cometh-downe from Heauen: nether do also theq 1.266 liuinge Waters / flowe from their Bodies. Therfore also yee finde not by them any Foode / to the Life:r 1.267 but they seduce you / and bring you into straunge Wayes / and in much Misery & Smart.

10. How remaine yee thus-longe / sos 1.268 voyde of Vnderstandinge: and wherfore suffer yee your∣selues to be yeat continuallie seduced of the earthlie Wyse? Consider {reversed ;}I praye you; how that ther is not anye vpright brotherlie Loue / Concorde / t 1.269 nor-yet Peace / amonge them.

11. Seeing then that they themselues are yeat vnregenerated· and not incorporated into that one* 1.270 peaceable Heart and vpright Minde of my Bee∣inge: but deale-hypocriticallie towardes thesame / or seperate them therfrom / and restv 1.271 diuided against each-other: and cannot therfore haue any true Loue amonge each-other· any vpright brotherlie Fami∣liaritie· nor without Faynednes / anye Peace or Concorde / So consider and iudge it then now

yourselues / how they should anywaye be able for to bringe you / to the right brotherlie Loue and Fa∣miliaritie· and to that one vpright Heart of the Loue and Peace ether Concorde.

12. They crye all {reversed ;}no-dowt; lowde-enough: Heere / x 1.272 heere is Christ: Theare / theare is Christ: The one bosteth him of the Beleef:y 1.273 the other of the Woorkes. The one sayth: Wee are saued now. The other sayth: It is heer-after.

[ D] 13. BVt I saye vnto you: If yee this-daye hearez 1.274 nor beleeue not my Voyce / nor humble you obedientlie vnto my Requiringe / so shall yee not then {reversed ;}nether heere on Earth / nor-yet heer-after; obtaine That which the earthlie Wyse do set-fourth before you / or call you vnto. But hee which this-daye heareth and beleeueth Mee / and cometh vnto mee / a 1.275 shall finde all that by mee which is Gods and Christes, and concerneth his Sal∣uation.

14. Therfore com now all vnto Mee / b 1.276 in your Bourdensomnes / and yee shall be eased and com∣forted· and finde by Mee / the true Christ ؛your Sauiour{punctel} also the Righteousnes / c 1.277 the Life / the Rest / and the Peace: for I am full therof: But the Earth and all her Wyse / are vtterlied 1.278 voyde and vnfruitfull of thesame.

15. Com now all yee that are hungrie / e 1.279 and eate of this my Bread / whichf 1.280 I bringe vnto you out of Heauen / so shall yee then becom satisfied and liue.

16. Com now all yee that are thirstie / g 1.281 and

Com now all yee that are tender-hearted and faint of Courraige / k 1.284 and tast of this my sweet Wine: and set yourselues be annoynted with this my wel-smellinge Oyle or Oyntment / so shall yee then bel 1.285 wel-strengthned and becom of good-cour∣raige. as also ioyfull in my Loue. Wher-through also your Ioyem 1.286 shall be perfect.

18. Turne you hether to Mee / andn 1.287 becom [ E] borne-anew {reversed ;}as Babes or Infantes; out-of Mee / so shall yee then {reversed ;}eauen-as my beloued Babes; suckeo 1.288 my Breastes / and tast the Milke of my Sweetnes / Louelynes / and Frindlynes / there∣out. Yea / than will Ip 1.289 imbrace you / and dandle or play-with you / also let you rest in myne Armes / and make you all Heyres in the Riches of myq 1.290 spi∣rituall and heauenlie Goods· and ther-to / in the euerlastinge Life.

19. Heer-withall did thissame Woman staye her Voice / for speaking any-more on the Earth.

20. NOtwithstanding / in all thissame Loue∣lye-alluringe of the Voice / which so let it-self be heard {reversed ;}out of Heauen; on the Earth / the Men which dwelled on Earth / wolde notr 1.291 once geeue any eare nor credit vnto the Woorde of God / or {reversed ;}at least-wise; very-little: but they chose much-rather / to followe-after the Foolishnes of the igno∣rant earthlie Wisdom / then to respect thissame

proffered* 1.292 Grace / and the Requiringe therof / wherby they mought haue liued. And thatsame mooued mee more for to wonder far-away / then all the reast wher-at I had wondered.

The XII. Chap.

[ A] NOw after-that this Voyce had geeuen-fourth his Sounde in such-sort / ouer the vniuersall Earth / and ceassed for speaking any-more on the Earth / So be∣came then the whole Worlde / and all Men which inhabited the Earth and had Breath / a 1.293 turned into Silence: and were as theb 1.294 Dead / which do nether see, heare, nor feele. And ther-with I turned my Sight to the liuing God / which satt in the Heauen {reversed ;}c 1.295 his Seate{punctel}. and thought in my Heart: O God / what shall now {reversed ;}I beseech thee; com vpon the Worlde and the Men, in thissame Silence as the Dead?

2. After-that / I looked / and beholde: The Godhead opened his Side / on his Right-hande: and in thesame Side / I sawe seuen cleere Lightes: and each Light in-seuerall / was in Cleernes verie bright. These Lightes stoode in-course {reversed ;}as on-a-rewe; one-by-another / as beinge redie to appeere on the Earth / and to geeue-light on the Face of the Earth / with their Cleernes.

[ B] 3. After-that / I sawe / and beholde: The formost Light appeered first / on the Earth: and gaue {reversed ;}from God and out-of God; his Light and

Cleernes on the Earth. Howbeit / the Man sawe nor knewe not the Cleernes of the first Light.

4. After-that appeered the seconde Light / on the Earth: and gaue {reversed ;}from God and out-of God; his Light and Cleernes on the Earth. Howbeit / the Man had no regarde to the Cleernes of the second Light.

5. After-that appeered the thirde Light / on the Earth: and gaue {reversed ;}from God and out-of God; his Light and Cleernes on the Earth. Howbeit / the Man was not aware of thesame / for to perceaue the Cleernes of the thirde Light.

6. After-that appeered the fourth Light / on the [ C] Earth: and gaue {reversed ;}from God and out-of God; his Light and Cleernes on the Earth. Howbeit / the Man wist nor vnderstoode not anything at-all of the Cleernes of the fourth Light.

7. After-that appeered the fifth Light / on the Earth: and gaue {reversed ;}from God and out-of God; his Light and Cleernes on the Earth. Howbeit / the Man had no vnderstanding of the Cleernes of the fifth Light.

8. After-that appeered the sixth Light / on the Earth: and gaue {reversed ;}from God and out-of God; his Light and Cleernes on the Earth. Howbeit / the Man knew not the Cleernes of the sixth Light.

9. After-that came-fourth the seuenth Light: And I sawe / and beholde: The perfect Godhead / andd 1.296 Gods Rest / was in the seuenth Light. This seuenth Light appeered also on the Earth: and gaue {reversed ;}from God and out-of God; his Light and Cleer∣nes

on the Earth. Howbeit / the Man walked not / whylst that the Cleernes of the seuenth Light shy∣ned on the Earth.

[ D] 10. BVt of all these / the Man had not any Feeling nor Vnderstanding at-all. For the Worlde together with all Men on the Earth / were in all these seuen Lightes / c 1.297 turned whollie in∣to Silence. and so insencible / that they could not di∣stinct the Lightes from the Darknesses.

11. Then pitied I the case of all Men or Gene∣rations of the Earth / for that they were so whollie dead, insencible,f 1.298 and blinde. and sawe or knewe no∣thing at-all of all these-same.

12. After-that I sawe / and beholde: These seuen Lightes with their Shyninges and Cleernesses / passed or went in againe to God / in the heauenlie Beeinge: First-of-all / the seuenth Light / which ap∣peered last: after-that the sixth Light / vntill that they all / were becom consubstanciated and hidde a∣gaine in God / eauen-like as at the first. And after-that it becameg 1.299 darke ouer the vniuersall Earth.

13. Then cryed I vnto God / which liuethh 1.300 from euerlastinge to euerlastinge. and sayde:

[ E] 14. O Lorde God! Wher-to is y^e Man com / which is now so whollie couered with the Darknes / on the Earth: whom Thou notwith∣standinge / dydsti 1.301 create to such an Excellentie and Pretiousnes / on y^e Earth / and elect for to liue in thy Light? Oh / How vtterlie deadk 1.302 and insencible or voyde of conceauing of thy Loue / and of y^e Cleernes of thy Lightes / is now the Man becom!

15. O God! Hast thou then created the Man {reversed ;}which lyeth now thus whollie in the Death of Sinne / and couered so vtterliel 1.303 with the Darknes∣ses; altogether in vayne?

16. Shall then all the Loue / which thou {reversed ;}eauen-heatherto; hast bestowed on him / be frustrate?

17. Are then now thym 1.304 Promises touching the Mans Saluation / whollie at-an-end / as if they were nothinge / or had not any effect in them?

18. Shal-ther nothinge then {reversed ;}I saye; becom of all that / whervnto thou hast {reversed ;}out of thy gratious Loue; elected the Man· and {reversed ;}through thy Christ; calledn 1.305 and bidden him for to com? so shall then {reversed ;}no-dowt; the Man remaine in the state of perdi∣tion / & thy Promises rest vnfulfilled / for euermore.

The XIII. Chap.

AFter-that when-as I had made-an-end [ A] of these Woordes / then sawe I. and beholde: The Heart and the verie-inmost Minde of the Godhead; which is full of great Grace / Loue / and Mercie / towardes the Man; opened itself verye wide-abrode: in such-wise that I sawe through-and-out / the verie-in∣most of the mostholie Beeinge of the Godhead / wherout all the Treasures of God / a 1.306 and y^e Most-secreatest of his godly Wisdom / was shewed vnto mee.

2. Which mostholie Beeing {reversed ;}that was shewed vnto mee / so full of Grace / Li••e / Loue / and Power

or Abilitie· and so full of all louely Bewtie and sweet Sauour; isb 1.307 vnexpressible and vnwritable. For it is the whole Secreatnes of God.

[ B] 3. AFter-this I sawe / and beholde: Out of thesame Fulnes of Grace / Life / Loue / and Powers of the Minde of God / God reuealed a Newc 1.308 Day / which was verie-aboundant of Light and Cleernes· and also {reversed ;}in itself; to an euerlasting Ioye and Gladnes.

4. Now when-as all these Secreates of God / were thus {reversed ;}out of y^e heauenlie Beeing; reuealed vnto mee: and that this great wōderfull Worke of God / was so shewed vnto mee / out of Gods mostholie Beeing / so feared I / & cryed-out with lowde Voice / and saide: Where art thou Testimony-of-trueth? Resolue mee {reversed ;}I pray thee; of all this which I haue seene and heard heere / and is shewed vnto mee.

5. Then appeered Testimony-of-trueth vnto mee / and sayde: Feare not. I will not forsake thee: but throughlie infourme thee in it all. Ther∣fore be now strengthned / andd 1.309 of good-cheere: and harken vnto the Resolutiō of those Thinges / wher∣in thou art cheefliest mooued for to wonder.

[ C] 6. THou lookedst downe on the Earth / and saweste 1.310 euery-wheare vpon the Earth / manye little Hilles. and that ther was by the Multitudes of those-same little Hilles / great Va∣riaunce and much Dissention / continuallie.

7. These Multitudes of manye little Hilles / which thou hast seene {reversed ;}with so much Variaunce; so diuided on the Earth / are the manye. Kingdoms

of the diuided Wyse of this Worlde / which are be∣••om so diuided / out of the last Kingdom of Babel: like as Daniel {reversed ;}in Babilon; saide vnto Nabucho∣donosor {punctel}the Kinge of Babel{punctel}f 1.311 touchinge the Imaige that the Kinge had seene / whose Feete and Toes / were part of Yron and part of Lome: and that thesame Feete and Toes / signified a diuided Kingdom or the last Kingdom of Babel: and that {reversed ;}moreouer; the God of Heauē {reversed ;}g 1.312 at the time of the∣same Kingdom; wolde set-vpp an euerlasting and peaceable Kingdom / that should neuermore be disturbed.

8. THat which thou sawest like-vnto a Wo∣man [ D] / to com-fourth {reversed ;}out of the lardge Openinge of the Heauens and of the Godhead; so glorious and bright in Cleernes and Bewtie: and that shee with her Cleernes and Bewtie / stretched-out herself ouer all Heauens / and also in all Hea∣uens / That is the Loue / h 1.313 eauen the Holie-gost itself.

9. THe vehement Winde / which thou sawest to com-downe {reversed ;}with great Power; out-of the Woman / from the great Mountaine of Hea∣uens. and al-to-brake the Hilles on the Earth / and ground them to Dust / i 1.314 That is the Stone / wher∣of also Daniel tolde the Kinge in Babilon, which the Kinge had seene in his Dreame / that it came-downe from the Mountaine / with-out any healpe of Handes. and did grynde euery-whitt of y^e great Imaige / k 1.315 together with the Feete & Toes {reversed ;}which were part of Yron and part of Lome; al-to-poulder.

[ E] 10. THe Woorde of God / which passed-fourth {reversed ;}with ^• sweete Voice; from the Mouth of the Woman / and did let his Voice go-out {reversed ;}on the Earth; amonge all People that were in Miserie / in such l••••elie-maner / for that they all should heare and beleeue thesame / and doo ther-af∣ter: wher-with the Woman called all People vnto her / and yet was not harkened-vnto nor beleeued / Thatsame is thel 1.316 Sonne of God / which in his Seruice / is named Iesus Christ: and was in times-passed not beleeued on the Earth / of y^e Wyse of the Worlde. but killed of them / and which is also yeat in this present Daye / m 1.317 not beleeued of the Wyse of the Worlde.

The XIIII. Chap.

[ A] THe seuen Lightes / which thou hast seene in the Side at the Right-hande of God / and appeered therout on the Earth / and gaue also their Cleernes on y^e Earth / area 1.318 the former seuen Dayes / which became or ap∣peered in the Beginninge / out of the Eaueninges and Morninges: Wherin also God in times-passed / wrought his glorious Woorkes / and let them to be seene therout.

2. THe First Daye / is the Paradice ether Will of the Lorde / b 1.319 wherin God hath sett the Man / in the Beginninge: and required ther-withall of the Man / that hee {reversed ;}in thesame Day or Light; should vnderstande the Lust or Will of

the Lorde / from out-of his owne Lust or Will: and euenso {reversed ;}c 1.320 that he mought liue; distinctlie-diuide the Death from the Life / and so liue in the Life. In which Daye / the Man hath not endeuoured him therto· but procured {reversed ;}with his owne Lustd 1.321 or Will; the Death vnto himself.

3. THe Seconde Daye / is thee 1.322 Lawe / the Doctrine / or the good Ordinaūce: wher∣withall God requireth of the Man / that the Man should be obedient vnto God / in all good Ordi∣naunce: to a goodf 1.323 Sustentation and Preseruinge of the Man / the-whylst that hee is yeat younge or childish in the holie Vnderstandinge· and for-that-cause yeat to weake / for to liue in the Righteous∣nes of God. Wher-vnder the Man hath notg 1.324 sub∣mitted him / for to be therin obedient.

4. THe Thirde Daye / is the Righteousones [ B] {punctel}the true Spirites or holie Angels{punctel} which are consubstantiated or of-one-beeinge with God & his righteous Iudgment: wher-with God requi∣reth of the Man / that the Man should also be of-one-beeinge / with those-same Righteousones / to-thend that hee mought also appeere {reversed ;}with all Righ∣teousones and holie Angels;h 1.325 before the righteous Iudgment and Trueth of God / in Righteousnes. and euenso in thesame Daye {reversed ;}wherin all Righte∣ousones doi 1.326 rise-vpp; becom preserued with all the Sainctes of God / in the Life of the godlie Trueth. Whervnto y^e Man hath had no will to apply him.

5. THe Fourth Daye / is the Dominion with God / or Hee which raigneth with God

[that is: Hee which {reversed ;}in his Dominion; is god••ded with God / one Beeingek 1.327 with Gods Bee∣inge / and euenso preuaylinge or gouerninge with God:] Wher-with God requireth of the Man / that Hee [to-wit] God himself {reversed ;}eauen-like as Hee is a true God and holie Spirit; should haue with the Man, in his Manhod·l 1.328 and the Man with Him in his Godhead / m 1.329 the Dominion {reversed ;}in euery-behalf; on the Earth. Which vpright Do∣minion {reversed ;}like-as the Man ought for to gouerne; the Man hath not knowen· and for-that-cause also not borne-dominion in such-sort.

[ C] 6. THe Fifth Daye / is then 1.330 Stoole of the Maiestie ؛the Possessinge of the most-excellent Glorie{punctel} / wher-with God {reversed ;}o 1.331 eauen as the right Kinge and Prince; requireth to all good Gouernment / at the Mans hande / to haue {reversed ;}al∣wayes and for euer; the Stoole or Seate of his most-holie Maiestie / by or in the Man / as-well on the Earth as in Heauen. After the which the Man hath not framed himself nor indeuoured him therto.

7. THe Sixth Daye / isp 1.332 the Vision of Peace: wher-through the Perfection or the vpright Fourme of all Thinges / is seene and vnderstoode. wher-with God requireth of y^e Man / that Hee himself {reversed ;}as a God or Light of Peace; should dwell {reversed ;}in all good Ordinaunce of the vp∣right Fourme of all Thinges;q 1.333 euerlastinglie with the Man. and that the Man euenso {reversed ;}in thesame Vision of Peace; should gouerne all Thinges wel••

on the Earth {reversed ;}in his vpright Ordinaunce and Fourme;r 1.334 vnto Peace. From y^• which / the Mans Sight hath ben closed· and for-that-cause also / nots 1.335 seene nor vnderstoode the vpright Fourme of all thinges· nor the good Gouernment and Or∣dinaunce / which stretcheth to the vpright Fourme and to the Peace of all Thinges / and ought to be on the Earth.

8. THe Seuenth Daye / is the Annoynted [ D] [That is / Hee which ist 1.336 annoynted with the Oyle or Oyntment of the Holie-spirit:] Wher-with God requireth of the Man / v 1.337 the Health of Mans Soule / or tox 1.338 saue the Man from the Sinne / to-thende that God {reversed ;}withy 1.339 the Ioyful-oyle of his holie Spirit; shouldz 1.340 dwell and liue in the Man / and the Man likewise in God. and that it mought euenso {reversed ;}with God and the Man; be an heritable Rest / a stedfast Peace / and a perfect Ioye. Wher-vnto the Man hath not geeuen-ouer himself / nor beleeued thesame.

The XV. Chap.

MOreouer / wher-as thou hast seene / [ A] that the Worlde together with y^• Man∣hod / werea 1.341 turned into Silence {reversed ;}eauen as the Dead; all these seuen Dayes: That is it / which the Angell in times-passed (and is now in thissame Daye fulfilled) hath sayde vnto Esdras / as a thinge for to comtopasse:b 1.342 The World (saith hee) shall be turned into the olde Si∣lence

/ seuen Dayes: like-as in the first Iudgment.

2. Beholde / These seuen Dayes / are now de∣clared / and passed-thorough ouer the Worlde: and y^• Worlde hath ben turned in those-same / into the olde Silence. and not vnderstanded nor know∣en anye-thinge therof: eauen like-as it came-to-passe in the first Iudgment / c 1.343 ouer the former Worlde / which also knew not of Gods Lightes nor of his Woorkes {reversed ;}what Gods purpose was therin; before that the Deluge or Floudde came ouer thesame.

3. Euenso is now also in thissame Daye (ac∣cording to the Woorde of the Angell vnto Esdras) thed 1.344 Most-highest reuealed on the Seate of his Iudgment. In which thissame Daye of Iudg∣ment / of the most-high God / all the Propheaties of God / shall becom fulfilled· the Lordes Dead / rise-vppe 1.345 from the Death and made liuinge· and all Vngodlie / rooted-out from the Earth.

[ B] 4. Howbeit / all This shall rest vnknowen to the last wicked Worlde / which shall perrish tho∣rough the Fyre (eauen-like as also thef 1.346 former wicked World which perrished through the Wa∣ter / vnderstoode not their owne Destruction / nor the Preseruation of the Righteous) or they shall not vnderstande any-thinge therof / g 1.347 nether-yet also they all which remaine lyinge-still in the vn∣godlie Beeing of the last wicked Worlde / h 1.348 before that the foresaide Destruction / i 1.349 and the Condem∣nation with the hellish Fire / fall vpon them / and roote them all out from-of y^e Earth / and condemne

them in the Hell, euerlastinglye.

5. MOreouer / in that the Heart and the ve∣ry-inmost Minde of the Godhead / vn∣locked or opened-abrode it-self: and that thou sawest / that it was so full of Grace / Powers of God / k 1.350 and so full of all godlie Goods and Bewti∣fulnes: Thatsame is the Mostholie of the true Tabernacle of God / and the Most-secreatest of his godlie Wysdom. which also no Man / l 1.351 with any Minde of the sinfull Fleash can comprehend· nor see or perceaue with any Eyes of earthlie Vnder∣standinge. For them 1.352 fleashlie Minde / with the earthlye Vnderstandinge of the sinfull Fleash {reversed ;}which is a Fore-skinne before the Heartes of the vncircumcised and vnregenerated Men; couereth his inwarde Sight / and estraungeth him / from the Mostholie of the vncouered heauenlie Cleernes of God.

6. ANd in that God {reversed ;}out of thesame Fulnes [ C] of his Grace / Loue / and Power of Life; declared and reuealedn 1.353 a New Daye / which is so aboundant in Cleernes / and so full of eternall Ioye: Thatsame is theo 1.354 New Life / which God {reversed ;}to an euerlasting Life of all repentant Men; bring∣eth-fourth out of the inmost Heart of his Minde. and is also the Newe Ierusalem, / which now in the last Time descendeth from Heauen / and wher∣in the right Perfection is to be inherited. Which Light / is the Eight Daye / wher-out the Seruice of the Loue {reversed ;}through the holie Spirit of Loue; hath his Ministration. Through whose Appeeringe

ouer the Earth / all the Dead {reversed ;}which are disceassed in the Lordep 1.355 Iesus Christ; do rise-vpp from the Death / and areq 1.356 made liuinge. and all Genera∣tions of Heauen and of Earth / r 1.357 becom iudged {reversed ;}in the Iudgment of God; with Right and Equitie.

7. Beholde / this Eight Daye / is the New Daye / s 1.358 which the Lorde himself reuealeth: in which all the Righteous and Holyones of God / do reioyce them. Wher-of also ther is writen in the Booke of the Psalmes. Yea / it is the New Daye of the Lorde / which will now eauen at the very-last / enlardge itself {reversed ;}with all Fulnes of Life / Grace / and Loue; ouer the vniuersall Worlde / t 1.359 to the Re∣newinge of the Earth with Righteousnes / and to the Saluation of all People that loue the Righte∣ousnes. After the which Daye / v 1.360 ther is not also any Daye of Saluation more for to com / seeing that thesame verelie / is the Perfection· and the Fulfillinge of the Scriptures· as also the very true Righteousnes itself.

[ D] 8. Therfore respect-well now thissame New Daye / that thou maystx 1.361 walke in his Light: For / ouer all those that haue a good regarde vnto the∣same / and that walke {reversed ;}through the Seruice of the Loue; in his Light / ther comethy 1.362 great Ioye / Peace / and Rest / and the euerlastinge Life. All which also / shall bee kept-safe from the horrible Plages / z 1.363 that are cominge ouer the Vngodlie.

9. Thus keepe or retaine-well now all This in thy Heart: and take good-heede vntoa 1.364 this pre∣tious Time. For in thesame ther shall be shewed

vnto Thee HN / the lastb 1.365 Iudgment of God / which is now cominge and passing-thorough ouer the Worlde: Which also is committed vnto Thee {reversed ;}out-of Manye; for to reueale. For God hath chosen Thee therto / for to reueale {reversed ;}out of his Se∣creatne••; all this vnto thee which thou seest and hearest: and that thou shouldest also testifie thesame amonge all People {reversed ;}which loue the Righteousnes; on the Earth· and warne them all concerning the Plages of the Vngodlie / c 1.366 and from the horrible Condemnatiō of the reprobate or damnable Men / whichd 1.367 dispise the Loue of God / To-thende that they mought turne them repentantlie / to the Righ∣teousnes· and the Dispisers haue none occasion / toe 1.368 excuse them of their Condemnation.

10. FOr all thissame that Testimony-of-trueth [ E] declared vnto mee / I reioy••ed mee much / with great Ioye: Chiefliest / for that the Time {reversed ;}cominge-on; did now approch / in the which / God {reversed ;}in his Iudgment;f 1.369 will woorke the Righteousnes on the Earth / and roote-out all Falshod. Yet thought I in my Heart:

11. O my God! In what-sort shall Al-thinge now {reversed ;}I pray thee; be ordered / and thy Iudgment com-to-passe? and wher-through or in what ma∣ner / shall {reversed ;}I beseech thee; the vpright Iudgment becom declared to the Man / that hee mought vn∣derstande thesame? For the Man is becom {reversed ;}in his Memorie or Vnderstandinge; whollie ignorant of thy Trueth / and voide of feelinge of thy Light: andg 1.370 syeth in Silence / as the Dead: and is also

{reversed ;}in all his Searchinge-prouidence; ronne-to-an-ende / in the Knowledge of Good and Euell. For-that-cause also / hee hath vtterlie lost the right Dif∣ference betwixt Sinne and Righteousnes: In such-sort / that hee with his Vnderstandinge / is com intoh 1.371 a darke Minde / eauen as into an heauie Traunce / wherin one knoweth not / i 1.372 how / or what to doo.

The XVI. Chap.

[ A] NOw whilst that I together with my Thoughtes / was thus combred {reversed ;}heer-withall; in my Heart / I heard in the Ayre {reversed ;}betwixt Heauen and Earth; a lowde-rushinge Noyze: then turned I my Sight and Hearinge thervnto / for to see / what it was. and to vnderstande the Crying-noyze.

2. As I was now consideringe heeron / ther appeered vnto mee two Spirites / which also were well knowen vnto mee. The one Spirita 1.373 was / Searching-prouidence, which did heere-tofore {reversed ;}through much Riches of the Knowledge; reioyce the Man / in his Vnderstandinge.

3. The other Spirit was / Thaccuser, which also in times-passed was a Iudge / in the Mans Vnderstandinge: and for-that-cause / he dwelt in the Mansb 1.374 Conscience. Wherthrough the Man {reversed ;}when-as the Accuser approued his cause;c 1.375 waxed∣prowde {reversed ;}in his owne Righteousnes; very-often: Againe of thother-syde {reversed ;}when-as y^• Accuser accused

him in his Conscience / or disalowed his cause; hee became oftentimesd 1.376 greatly burdened {reversed ;}in the Con∣science; with greeuous Straightnes or Distresse: and so humbled hymself to all that / which was iudged of him {reversed ;}out of the Knowledge; to be right.

4. MOreouer / As I was thus harkening [ B] with myne Eares / to their Sounde / so heard I that Searching-prouidence spake / and saide vnto the Accuser:

5. I haue dealt or conuersated mee for a longe-time / with the Man {reversed ;}in his Vnderstandinge; in the earthlie Beeinge: also gouerned him with al∣maner of Prudence and Ingeniousnes of y^• Know∣ledge: e 1.377 and therto {reversed ;}out of thesame Knowledge; taught him how to distinct or seuer the Good from the Euell: and haue yet farder / let him enioye or in∣herit thesame experymented Wisdom / as a Light. And ther was neuer yeat anye Vnrighteousnes founde in mee. For I am iust in all my Dealinges. For-that-cause also / my Authoritie-in-gouernment ought to be greater / then ouer the Mans Vnder∣standinge / in the earthlie Beeinge.

6. Heer-vnto answered the Accuser. and saide: I haue also no-dowt / ben alwayes as a Iudge by thee: andf 1.378 accused the Man / in his Vnderstan∣dinge {reversed ;}when-as hee transgressed in any of all that which hee admitted as Good {reversed ;}through Thee; in y^• Knowledg; as a Transgressour of the Good. and asscribed euenso the Right therin vnto thee. Wher-through thy Power & Gouernment {reversed ;}in the Mans Vnderstandinge; is becom so great on the Earth.

[ C] 7. Then sayde Searchinge-prouidence: I holde not myself contented / with thissame Gouern∣ment on the Earth. For ther belongeth yet greater vnto mee / inasmuch as I haue preuayled by the Man {reversed ;}in his Vnderstandinge; with the Know∣ledge {reversed ;}against Gods Woorde / and the Obedience that God requireth therwith; and gotten as also kept theg 1.379 Victorye therin in him / on the Earth.

8. Inasmuch then as God hath alwaies inuey∣ed or set-vp himself against mee / on the Earth. and yet hath not ben able {reversed ;}hetherto; to preuaile against my Wisdome out of the Knowledge / So haue I now therfore made-vpp myself / out of the earthlie Beeinge / for to appeere {reversed ;}with my Wisdome; a∣gainst God, wher-by that I mought also get the Dominion / in the heauenly Beeinge. What will you laye?h 1.380 I shall raigne aboue God {reversed ;}or at least∣wise / equall with God; in the Heauen also.

[ D] 9. Then saide the Accuser: Thou hast {reversed ;}surelie; right therto. For what hath God brought-in at any-time / against thyne expert Wisdome / that hath perseuered on the Earth? Ori 1.381 where appee∣reth that which hee hath promised? For Al-thinge remayneth still in one State. Therfore go-fourth now boldlie. Thy Title is right. And I also will not faile / in Accusation against God / to be alwayes by thee. For to thee belongeth the Dominion in the Heauen / like as thou {reversed ;}through the Light of thy Knowledge; hast thesame on the Earth.

10. Then saide Searching-prouidence: For to winne the Right / therto am I sufficientlie

grounded / and also of good courraige. Therfore I will now not spare to presse on-fourth to the ••eauen / and trye my Titlek 1.382 in the Lawe / against God. I fore-see the mattier so {reversed ;}through the Sear∣••••inge in the Knowledge; that I shall preuaile / and that I {reversed ;}with my knowledgfull Wisdom; shall 〈◊〉〈◊〉 iudged worthier for to raigne / then God /l 1.383 with ••he Requiring of his Obedience. For dowtles ther 〈◊〉〈◊〉 nothing / that can bringe-vnder or-yet surmount ••he Light of the prudent and expert Wisdom. For-••hat-cause also / it is becom {reversed ;}aboue the Obedience ••f God; the Renowmedst and Excellentest / or the Best-esteemed / on the Earth.

••1. Therto affirmed the Accuser: Thy Case is [ E] 〈◊〉〈◊〉 questionles; al-cleere. And it is also well knowen / ••••y all earthlie Wyse on the Earth / that thy Light ••f expert Wisdom / is exalted {reversed ;}m 1.384 by all worldlie Wyse and Scripture-learned; ouer the whole Worlde / aboue the Obedience which God requy∣••••th· healde for the Best and Truest· and counted ••o be the Excellentest: and that moreouer / by that ••ccasion / the scientiall or knowledgfull Wisdome ••ath gotten the Preheminence / amonge all those ••hat dwell on the Earth. For then 1.385 Obedience to ••he Woorde of God {reversed ;}which God requireth; is ••ith thesame (like as it appeereth on the Earth) ••hollie gon-vnder or depressed: In such-sort / that ••her is nomore regarde taken {reversed ;}or very-little; on the Requiring of the Obedience to y^e Woorde of God.

••2. Then saide Searchinge-prouidence: I ••••n sure that God {reversed ;}for-asmuch certes as Hee is

not subtile in the Ingenious-prudentie / nether yet also any of all His / that serue Him; shall not b•• able to excuse him heerin against mee. And when-a•• I shall then {reversed ;}in the Lawe; excell Him with the Sub••tiltie of my Knowledge / o 1.386 so may I also well {reversed ;}with right and honestie / before all the Worlde and he•• Wyse; take-in y^e Heauē: and so then beare the Domi••nion / ouer all what is in Heauen and on the Earth▪

The XVII. Chap.

[ A] WHen I had thus heard-throughli•• the Counsell and Enterprise of these Spi••rites / I wondered very-greatlie at thei•• Talke and Purpose. But yet I consi∣dered on their Enterprise: and looked what th•• Ende therof wolde be.

2. Now when they had thus helde their Counsel•• together and throughlie-concluded all their Mat∣tier / in what order they wolde handle thesame / the•• came they {reversed ;}with a Vehement-russhinge; vnto Hea∣uen / before God: And Searchinge-prouidenc•• made his Complaint / before God. and saide:

3. Ther is great Iniurie ministred vnto Me•• Searching-prouidence / on the Earth: For agains•• myne Office and my Righteousnes / ther is a•• other entred into myne Office: by whom both 〈◊〉〈◊〉 and also the Man {reversed ;}in his Vnderstanding; haue be•••• constrained {reversed ;}oftentimes;a 1.387 to suffer Distourbaunce▪

[ B] 4. Therto answered God. and saide: Be quie•• thou Searching-prouidence: Whosoeuer mini∣••••reth

Iniurie / against thee and the Trueth / let him 〈◊〉〈◊〉 thy Seruant: and beare thou ouer him thyne ••uthoritie.

••. Ther-withall spake the Accuser. and saide: Thou God thyself / art euen Hee which hast mini∣••••red the wronge / vnto Searching-prouidence: ••nd hast oftentimes {reversed ;}with thy Woorde; entred-in ••gainst him / into his Office. But-yetb 1.388 Searching-prouidence {reversed ;}hauing ingendred y^e greatest Know∣••edge / in the Mans Vnderstandinge; hath al∣wayes {reversed ;}with his subtile expert Wisdom / and with ••he Mans Ingeniousnes; gon-beyonde Thee. and ••reuayled against Thee and the Obedience which ••hou requyrest / or hath wonne the Victorie therin ••n the Earth / and also kept thesame.

••. Inasmuch now therfore as that Searching-prouidence / hath alwaies on the Earth {reversed ;}with the ••xpert or knowledgfull Wisedom / in the Mans Vnderstandinge; gon-beyonde Thee {reversed ;}O God; in ••hy Woorde and Requiring of the Obedience: and ••hat Thou hast not atchiued or brought-to-effect ••herwith / anything on the Earth / against the expert Wisdome and the Mans Ingeniousnes / through Searching-prouidence,* 1.389 So hast thou (I saye) ministred wronge against him. And for-that-cause {reversed ;}according to thy Woorde; thou shalt be his Ser∣uant: and hee shall also raigne or beare Dominion in the Heauen / life-as on the Earth.

7. THen saide God vnto Searching-proui∣dence: [ C] Inasmuch as thou with the Ac∣cuser / dost make a Complaint against Mee / and the

Accuser taketh-part with thee / so cannot therfo•••• the Accuser iudge our Causes / accordinge to 〈◊〉〈◊〉 Trueth. For-that-cause / chuse thou a Iudge 〈◊〉〈◊〉 Heauen wheare-in I dwell: And I will {reversed ;}of 〈◊〉〈◊〉 other-side; chuse also One / on the Earth / fro•• whence thou with the Accuser art com / & whea•••• thou hast the Gouernment. Both These shall the•••• be our Iudges / in discising of all Mattiers / whi•••• ether thou / or anyman els bringeth against Me•• wherin I should haue donne ether maintaine•• wronge.

8. Thissame which God spake / pleased Sear∣chinge-prouidence very-well: and hee chose 〈◊〉〈◊〉 Heauen for a Iudge / Testimony-of-trueth.

9. Then chose also God {reversed ;}of his part; on th•• Earth to a Iudge / The Memorye or Vnder∣standinge of the Man. And euenso both thes•• [Testimony-of-trueth and The Mans Vnder••standinge] were fore-seene and chosen / in Heaue•• and on Earth / for true Iudges / For to pronounce-fourth {reversed ;}now in the last Time; the right Senten∣ces of the true Iudgment of God: and also wha•• the Requiring of thesame Iudgment is of y^e Chil∣dren of Men / on the Earth.

[ D] 10. Now when that the Election of the vpright Iudges / was thus com-to-passe / then spake Te∣stimony-of-trueth, and saide: Forasmuch now as I am foreseene & chosen of Prouidence {reversed ;}which i•• com-vpp from the Earth / vnto Heauen / with Occasion of Contention against God; to a Iudge: and that also of the other-side / The Mans Vn∣derstandinge

/ is foreseene and chosen of God / to a Iudge likewise / So will Wee therfore / c 1.390 accor∣dinge to the Trueth {reversed ;}now in the last time; iudge vprightlie together.

11. For presentlie {reversed ;}in this Daye; wee will bring-fourth and pronounce the vpright Iudgment, ac∣cording to the Trueth: Also execute thesame / both in Heauen and on Earth / to-thende that it all mought go in his right Course / or be reduced into his right Order.

12. Therfore I will now appeere on the Earth, by the Mans Vnderstandinge. For I knowe that the Power / Hope / and Comfort of thesame on the Earth / is vtterlie awaye.

The XVIII. Chap.

NOw when-as Testymonye-of-trueth / [ A] had thus ended his Talke / hee went out of Heauen / and appeered on the Earth / a 1.391 by the Mans Vnderstandinge [namelie / by thesame / which was wholly com to-an-ende in the Knowledg / and had a Lust to be obe∣dient vnto the Will and Requiringe of the Lorde] and saide vnto her: Open vnto mee the Doore of thy Minde / and receaue Mee. For I bring vnto thee a ioyfull Messaige.

2. Then saide the Vnderstanding: How is it possible that I should let thee in & receaue thee in∣to mee / inasmuch as I knowe Thee not? And what Messaige to Ioyfulnes / canst thou also bringe vn∣to

Mee / wheare-as I am {reversed ;}certes;b 1.392 in the Death· and in euery-behalf {reversed ;}with the whole Worlde;c 1.393 in Silence / touchinge the Knowledge of the Trueth: also vtterlie made-emptie of Searching-prouidence / through whom {reversed ;}in times-passed; I obtained great Riches of the Knowledge / of the Good and of the Euell: in such-sort / that I am now by that occasion becom so whollied 1.394 poore of all thesame / that I scarse∣lie knowe any Difference more / betwixt the Righ∣teousnes and the Sinne. For all this is cleene de∣parted from mee: and I lye heere forsaken / e 1.395 in the deadlie Silence.

3. Then saide Testimony-of-trueth: Thy De∣stitution in deadlie Silence / and that thou art now becom thusf 1.396 poore of Spirit / shall extend vnto thee / to a Life eternall / and to great Riches of God. For euen to that effect is my cominge hether vnto thee / for to comfort thee / with som better-thing then that which thou hast had alredie.

[ B] 4. Then saide the Vnderstandinge: Who art thou then? And from whence comest thou / that thou shouldest be able so for to comforte mee / with som better-thing then that which I haue had alredie?

5. Then saide Testimony-of-trueth: I am Testimony-of-trueth, which am com vnto thee / out of Heauen / and do also speake vnto thee from Heauen. Which heauenlie Trueth / thou hast neuer {reversed ;}through all thy Riches of the Knowledge; once seeneg 1.397 nor knowen. But now in the Ende of the Worlde {reversed ;}eauen in the vpright Iudgment; it shall all / what is Trueth and the Secreatnes of the

heauenlie Kingdom of God / h 1.398 be geeuen thee for to see-into / and be made-knowen vnto thee.

6. Also thou art now chosen of God / for to pro∣noūce-fourth with Mee [that is / with the Trueth] the syncere and vpright Iudgment. For thou with mee / and I with thee / are required by God and Prouidence / to be Iudges / for to execute Iudgment / withi 1.399 Right and Equitie.

7. Then saide the Vnderstandinge: Oh! wherby {reversed ;}I pray thee; may I knowe / that thou art com out of Heauen / and art Testimony-of-trueth? For ther is no Power of the Life / nor-yet sure Knowledge by mee {reversed ;}wheron I may sett my confidence; for to make-triall of thy Spirit / k 1.400 and to prooue / whether thou art of God or no / and comest to mee with the heauenlie Trueth.

8. Then saide Testimony-of-trueth: I haue [ C] tolde thee {reversed ;}dowtles; Tokens enough / wher-tho∣rough thou mayst well beleeue mee. But yet {reversed ;}ouer-and-aboue these which I haue tolde thee; let this now be to a Token vnto thee / that I am of God (namelie) that I com vnto thee {reversed ;}thou beinge so poore of Spirit; in thy Destitution / and common {reversed ;}with Thee; sol 1.401 manifestlie or nakedlie {reversed ;}like-as I now speake with thee; of the Kingdom of God and of y^e Secreatnes of thesame [with thissame Talk, Testimony-of-trueth vncouered or declared to the Mans Vnderstandinge / manye Secreat-mysteries of the Kingdom of God and of his vpright Righteousnes] which trulie the Spi∣rites that are not of God / m 1.402 cannot doo. For all

forren Spirites {reversed ;}which are not of God nor of the Trueth; haue not any Cleernes nor vpright Bee∣inge of the Kingdom of God / nor of his vpright Righteousnes / like-as thou hearest well / that ther is by Mee. But through the Searchinge in the Knowledge / n 1.403 they seduce the Mans Vnderstan∣dinge.

9. Howbeit / in that thou art becom thus poore of Spirit / be not sorowfull therin: but reioyce thee. For {reversed ;}therfore;o 1.404 the Kingdom of the God of Hea∣uens / belongeth vnto Thee.

10. Seeke not also againe / to haue any confi∣dence in the Knowledg / for to search or trye {reversed ;}ther-through; y^e Spirites / and to prooue or top 1.405 knowe, whether they be of God or no. For ther-with thou shouldest most-of-all becom deceaued.

[ D] 11. For the Spirites nether-yet also any of the godlie Causes / cannot be knowen through any Searchinge: nether can-men alsoq 1.406 iudge them / through any Riches of the Knowledge / nor tho∣rough anye Scripture-learnednes / whether they be of God. but onlye / r 1.407 through the heauenlie Trueth / and the syncere Beeing of thesame.

12. For-that-cause / heare now & beleeue Mee: and geeue-ouer all thine Vnderstandinge in Mee / so shalt thou then finde al-thinge {reversed ;}in the Trueth; euen-like as I haue sayde vnto thee: Yet not in the Knowledge / according to the maner of the in∣genious Prudentie. but in the true Beeing of the liuinge Godhead / wherwith I ؛Testimony-of-trueth{punctel} am conformablie-vnyted.

13. NOw when-as the Vnderstandinge heard and vnderstoode / that all that which was chaunced vnto her / was tolde her accor∣ding to the Trueth. and that also thes 1.408 Openinge of the Kingdom of the God of Heauens and of his vpright Righteousnes / came-to-passe accordinglie / then opened the whole Minde of the Vnderstan∣dinge itself / and receaued Testimony-of-trueth very louelie / with Ioye: and beleeued Him with whole Heart. And submittinge herself obedientlie vnder his Requiringe / shee saide:

14. Blessedt 1.409 art thou to the Lorde {reversed ;}O Testi∣mony-of-trueth; [ E] which comest in the Name of the Lorde. Thou art good, holye, and true: What is the Will of my Lorde and God? I geeue-ouer myself whollie vnto Thee / for to ac∣complish according to thy Witnessinge / the Will and Requiring of the Lorde· and also all Righ∣teousnes. And whatsoeuer I haue of God / of the Nature / and on the Earth / v 1.410 thatsame do I also lay-downe all heere before thy Feete: For thou art my Lorde / and my right Head.

15. Therfore {reversed ;}O my Lorde; doo with mee and with all what is by mee / x 1.411 according to thyne and thy Lordes Will. Fory 1.412 I desire to liue and walke perfectlie / according to thy Woorde and Counsell of Wisdom. For thervnto haue Iz 1.413 a Lust / eauen from my whole Heart.

16. Then did Testimony-of-trueth / take-vpp the Mans Vnderstandinge. Hee tooke thesame vnto him / as his Deerlie-beloued: and imbraced

her euenso in his Armes. and in such-like-sort did also the Mans Vnderstandinge / vnto Testimo∣ny-of-trueth. And beinge euenso {reversed ;}in all Obedience of the Requiringe of the Loue; becom concordable and of-one-beeinge with each-other / they& 1.414 lauded and thanked the God of Heauen / which liueth from euerlastinge to euerlastinge.

The XIX. Chap.

[ A] NOw as the Mans Vnderstanding had whollie geeuen-ouer herself to Testi∣mony-of-trueth· and humblie submitted her to his Obedience: and walked also faithfullye in thesame Obedience: and that they therto in mutual-sort / honoured and thanked the God of Life / Then sawe I. and beholde: The whole Beeing of the Godhead / opened againe his whole Heart and Minde {reversed ;}which is full of Grace / Loue / Powers / and Life; in all respectes / a 1.415 with al∣maner Garnishing of Excellent-bewtie / eauen as I had seene thesame before. And God shewed himself ouer the Earth / and brought-fourth out of his Heart and Minde / the New Life / b 1.416 the Light of Perfection: and it is the Eight-daye / c 1.417 which the Lorde hath made· and declared on the Earth / to the Making-aliue of Men in his vpright Bee∣inge / and wherin men reioyce them with Gladnes.

2. After that I sawe. and beholde: Thissame Eight-daye appeered on the Earth / and gaue from God and out-of God / his Light and Cleernes on

the Earth. and the Vnderstandinge {reversed ;}d 1.418 which walked faithfullie / in all Loue / and in all Obe∣dience towarde Testimonye-of-trueth; became {reversed ;}through thesame Light of the New or Eight Daye; borne-anew out of the Death / or out of the Mortalitie·e 1.419 and chaunged into the euerlasting Immortalitie: and became euensof 1.420 made-aliue {reversed ;}with perfect Ioye of the holie Spirit of Loue; in the New Life / and sanctified vnto the Lorde.

3. THen did Vnderstandinge reioyce her [ B] with great Ioye: and that cheefliest / be∣cause the Middel-wallg 1.421 or the Coueringe of the sinfull Fleash / was so throughlie laide-away from her Heart· the Vaile departed from the Most-ho∣lie: and that shee {reversed ;}in all Loue of the holie Spirit; was so sanctified to the God of Heauen: and sawe-into the mostholie Beeinge of God / h 1.422 and all the Sumpteous-garnishing of the Riches of his spiri∣tuall & heauenlie Goods / so nakedlie & cleerlie / as also inherited all thesame / in God / in Christ, and in y^e Holie-gost of Loue / with Testimony-of-trueth.

4. And euenso heer-with / became the sanctified Vnderstandinge so bright in Cleernes / eauen as was Testimony-of-trueth, and as all Heauens of the liuinge Deitie. Through which Cleernes / the sanctified Vnderstandinge behelde Testimo∣ny-of-trueth, and all the Heauens with the per∣fect Deitie / i 1.423 from Face to Face / and became of-one-beeinge with those-same.

5. TH••n saide Testimony-of-trueth to the [ C] Mans sanctified Vnderstanding: Be∣holde

/ Now vnderstandest thou {reversed ;}through y^• Light of the New Life; that Gods Light and Wisdom / and his heauenlie Riches {reversed ;}which are com vnto thee out of his liuing Beeinge;k 1.424 doth farre excell the Light and Wisdom that proceedeth out of the Ri∣ches of the Knowledge. and that thou before {reversed ;}the∣whylst thou soughtest the Wisdom / in the Know∣ledge / and in the ingenious Prudentie; inheritedst not els-what but greatl 1.425 Trauell / Heauynes / and the deadlie Beeinge: But now {reversed ;}in thissame Wis∣dom of God;m 1.426 the Rest and the euerlastinge Life.

6. Wherfore / O thou holie Vnderstandinge ؛thou Blessed of the Lorde{punctel} / in that thou {reversed ;}before this thy New-birth; hast beleeued Mee ؛Testi∣mony-of-trueth {punctel}·whollie geeuen-ouer thyself {reversed ;}o∣bedientlie; vnto my Doctrine or Requiringe· and ben obedient and faithfull / in the Passe-ouer of the Sufferinge and Death of Christ {reversed ;}eauen into the seconden 1.427 Birth from the Death; with Christ, So hath God therfore turned all his Loue toward thee.

7. Also thou sh••lt ascende with mee vnto Hea∣uen / and heare, beholde, and inherit with Ioye / all what is in Heauen. Also wee both are (like as I sayde before vnto thee) fore-seene and chosen to vp∣right Iudges / for to pronounce-fourth Gods righ∣teous Iudgment {reversed ;}in this hiso 1.428 Eight-daye; both in Heauen and also on Earth: and euenso with Righteousnes {reversed ;}vnder the Obedience of the Loue; to gouernep 1.429 the vniuersall Earth {reversed ;}with God and his Sainctes; in vpright-maner / To-thende that it all {reversed ;}both in Heauen and on Earth; may go in his

right Course / or be sett in his right Ordinaunce.

8. Heer-withall did the holie Vnderstanding / [ D] bow-downe herself before Testimony-of-trueth. and saide:q 1.430 All the Woorkes of the Lorde are vp∣right and good: and his Lawe and Iudgment is onlie true. Let him deale with mee / r 1.431 accordinge to his Will.

9. After-that I sawe. & beholde: The Mans sanctified Vnderstanding, Memory / or Though∣tes / with Testimony-of-trueth / assembled them to the Multitudes of the Heauens of God and Christ / in the heauenlie Beeinge:s 1.432 Wherin all the heauenlie Societie {reversed ;}with much Ioye; did greatlie reioyce them. And ther was made ouer all Hea∣uens and in all Heauens / a great Tryumph and Gladnes.

10. After-that I sawe. and beholde: Thissame holie Vnderstandinge, with Testimonye-of-trueth / were sett {reversed ;}of God and Prouidence;t 1.433 on the Iudgment-seates. and alowed and esteemed to be worthie / for to iudge it all both in Heauen and on Earth {reversed ;}through Gods Iudgmēt with his Ho∣lyones; v 1.434 with Right and Equitie.

The XX. Chap.

AFter-that spake Testymonye-of-trueth, [ A] and saide to the holie Vnderstan∣dinge: Beholde / Presentlie {reversed ;}eauen in this∣same New Daye of thea 1.435 new and true Life; wee are fore-seene to true Iudges together-with

God and all his Holyones / and also sett therto {reversed ;}by God and Prouidence; on the Iudgment-seates / To-thende that all Mattiers {reversed ;}both of that which is in Heauen / and of that which is on Earth; should com and be presented before vs / that wee mought heare and examen those-same / also iudge them ac∣cordinge to the Trueth / and so pronounce-fourth the right Sentences ther-of.

2. After-that / Testimony-of-trueth and holie Vnderstandinge spake both-alike together / with a Thankes-geeuinge vnto God. and sayde:

[ B] 3. Laude and Thankes be geeuen to the Most-highest / for this his great Grace. For behold: The Day which God hath sett or ordayned / for to iudg in thesame / b 1.436 the Compasse of y^e Earth with Righ∣teousnes /c 1.437 is now appeered and com. In the which eueryone shalld 1.438 receaue his Recompence / according to his Woorkes / and wherin eueryone hath right {reversed ;}or is to be iustified; right shall be geeuen him / and hee shall be iudged vprightlie.

4. Therfore let eueryone now appeere {reversed ;}in this∣same Daye; with his Cause / e 1.439 before the Iudg∣ment-seate of Christ. And wee will bringe-fourth the vpright Iudgment {reversed ;}accordinge to the Trueth of God and Christ, and accordinge to the Vnder∣standing of the holie Spirit; / and pronounce-fourth the Sentence iustlie.

[ C] 5. THen came-fourth Searching-prouidence in place. and saide: O thou Testimonye of the eternall Trueth, and thou Vnderstanding of the holie Wisdom {reversed ;}yee noble Lordes and Prin∣ces

/ in Heauen and on Earth;f 1.440 Yee are worthie to sitt on the Seates of Iudgment / for to iudge all Mattiers vprightlie. For surelie all thingesg 1.441 are nakedlie knowen {reversed ;}accordinge to the Trueth; vnto your Noblenes.

6. Inasmuch now then as that your Noblenes can right-easelie and with small labour / knowe and vnderstande the Deepnes of all Vnderstandinges {reversed ;}which also dowtles must now all appeere before thissame Iudgment;· and iudge eueryone {reversed ;}accor∣dinge to the Trueth; vprightlie / So do I therfore humble myself somuch the free-willinger before your noble Wisdom: and will also in that consideration {reversed ;}with freenes of Minde; open my Case euen-heere before your Noblenes.

7. For-that-cause vouchsafe now to heare mee in this {reversed ;}O yee noble and honourable Lordes; in all what I shall speake heere before the vpright Iudg∣ment / and before your Noblenes / by the Will and goodwillinge Permission of your Noblenes.

8. I Searchinge-prouidence {reversed ;}h 1.442 beinge pru∣denter [ D] and vnderstandinger then all the Soules of the Earth; haue alwaies vsed myne Of∣fice / and the right Kinde of my Nature and Fashi∣on / vprightlie on the Earth. and yet notwithstan∣dinge suffered often Wronge at Gods hande. For God hath often troubled mee· as also the Man in his Vnderstandinge / with his Woord {reversed ;}wherwith Hee requyred Obedience / which is dowtles euery∣wheare on the Earth / esteemed for least-of-reputati∣on. and brought vs to great Dissention and into

much Dowtinge of our Light / which wee had ob∣tayned out of the Knowledge.

9. Which thinge also Hee hath cheeflyest vsed or accustomed for to doo / when-as our Light of the Knowledge came to be esteemed in thei 1.443 glorioust-degree / and was euery-wheare accepted {reversed ;}on the Earth; for the true Light of the Wisdom of God. and that wee had foreseene to purchase ther-tho∣rough / with all Mindes of the Fleash / and with all earthlie Wyse and Scripture-learned / a quiet Peace on the Earth: in such-sort / that the Man in his Vnderstanding / became {reversed ;}by that occasion; oftentymes diuided / and fell into dyuers Diuisi∣ons: and was driuen euenso {reversed ;}with greatk 1.444 Labour and Vexation of his Minde and Wittes / in the Curious-searching after thel 1.445 Light / in the Know∣ledge; to com-againe vnto mee· and to bringe-fourth through Mee ؛Searching-prouidence{punctel} a new Light / out of the Knowledge / for to sett his Heart andm 1.446 Conscience {reversed ;}which was whollie trou∣bled; at-peace ther-on.

Forasmuch now as that I {reversed ;}O yee noble Lordes; haue thus-longe indured {reversed ;}with Longe-sufferinge; this Wronge / and the manye Hynde∣rances touching the Peace on the Earth: and that also the Riches of my Light / & my expert Wisdom {reversed ;}which hath euery-wheare before all the Children of Men / the most estimation and cleauing-vnto; doth farre excell God & his Wisdom / So affirme I therfore heere before the Iudgment / that such Wronge / and thesame Hinderance of the Peace

with all Mindes and Wyse of the Fleash / ought not to be suffered any-lenger on the Earth. but to be knowen for right / that I {reversed ;}with my Wisdom and Light of the Knowledge; ought for to raigne aboue God / or at least-wise / to ben 1.447 equall with God / and eauen as God himself.

The XXI. Chap.

AFter-that spake God. and saide: [ A] Yee Holyones and Wyse / yee honourable Lordes and Iudges / and yee most-noble Seedea 1.448 of the renowmedst kinglie Stocke of the most-puissant Maiestie: Presentlie {reversed ;}eauen in thissame Daye of the vpright Iudgment; will I excuse or cleere myself with the Trueth {reversed ;}before your Noblenes of so excellent and high-degree; against my contrarye Partie: and affirme heere before the Iudgment / b 1.449 that ther can none other God more beare-dominion / besydes Mee. For I onlie am the Lorde.

2. Inasmuch then as that I amc 1.450 holie, vp∣right, and true / in all my Woorkes / so will I alsod 1.451 possesse alone the Seate of the godlye Ma∣iestie· and also {reversed ;}according to the Trueth; keepe well the Victorie / and that with Right.

3. I Heare heere before the Iudgment / a [ B] Complaint against Mee: To-wit / that I {reversed ;}with the Light of my Woorde; should haue made an entrie / into anothers Light / Wisdom / & Peace. and so haue brought-in Distourbaunce and Dis∣sention

by the Man / in hys Vnderstandinge: Wherto I rightlie make-answer / that I knowe not of anye other Light / e 1.452 but my Life: and the Life / which proceedeth or floweth from Mee / that∣same is the true Light of the Man: and is to an Illuminating of him in his Vnderstanding / and ther is none other Light more.

4. Also I knowe not of any otherf 1.453 Wisdome / but the holie Vnderstandinge / which also is a Life of my Life· and for that cause likewise / a Light of my Light. I knowe not also of any Peace / but the peaceableg 1.454 Louelynes of my Spirit of the Loue / which also all my Holyones {reversed ;}which are becom sanctified through the Light of my Life; do inherit in the euerlasting Life.

5. For-that-cause / O yee honourable Lordes ؛Testimony-of-trueth and holie Vnderstan∣dinge{punctel} haue well in remembraunce / this my Cleer∣ing of myself: and consider effectuallie of my Light. And then peruse it all / whether that ther be in Hea∣uen or-yet vpon Earth / any other Light more / thenh 1.455 that Light / which is my true Life itself: and whether that also it doth not all walke in y^e* 1.456 Dark∣nesses / that is or hath his Fourth-goinge with-out my Light of Life. In such-like-sort deale also with my Wisdom / Rest / and Peace / wherin the syn∣cere Loue standeth-firme for euermore. For I knowe that your Noblenesses do well vnderstand and haue intelligence of these Mattiers.

[ C] 6. THissame Complaint made by Search∣ing-prouidence, and y^e Cleering of God

in his case / beinge thus com-to-passe / so did then the Lordes and Iudges / take-vp both their Cau∣ses: and departed ther-with into their Counsel-chamber / for to peruse-ouer thesame groundlye / and that they mought so pronounce-fourth an vpright Sentence ther-of.

7. Now whenas they were com-fourth againe / they saide vnto God and Prouidence: Yee haue presented your Causes on both sides / heere before vs and the Iudgment: and hauinge throughlie considered therof / so is this our Counsell touching thesame / and our first Sentence / that wee pro∣nounce ther-of.

8. Each-one of you shall expresse or de∣clare heere before Vs / * 1.457 the cleerest Certifica∣tion {reversed ;}that is knowē vnto hym therof; of his Right / wherby hee mought haue Iustice.

9. Out of which Declaration / wee will yet far∣der throughlie-wey each-ones Mattier / To-thend that wee pronounce not fourth the last Sentence o∣uer-swiftlie / and so the one or the other to rest dis∣contented: but that it may be wrought with such Manifest-certification and Vnderstandinge / that it may be as-well knowen to him against whom thesame falleth-out / that wee haue spoken rightlie / or pronounced the Sentence in right-fourme / accor∣ding the to Trueth / as vnto him with whom the mattier goeth.

10. NOw when these Woordes were ended / [ D] Testimony-of-trueth saide: Let Sear∣ching-prouidence

bring-fourth heere before vs / his Declaration of his Light / and of his Equalitie with the Godhead: And let God also doo the like / of his Light. and that ther is none other Light more / and that Hee onlie / is God and the Lorde. Eueryone shall now {reversed ;}in thissamek 1.458 New Daye; heare the vpright Iudgment pronounced-fourth / through Vs ؛Testimony-of-trueth, and Holie-vnderstandinge{punctel}.

11. Heer-vnto Searchinge-prouidence saide: Forasmuch as God hath now cleered himself / that Hee knoweth not of any other Light more: as also that ther should not be any other Wisdom more / but onlie his Light and Wisdom / So is therfore my Request to your Noblenes {reversed ;}yee honourable Lordes; that God may haue the Fore-going / in his Declaration: and euenso will I then {reversed ;}in the Vtteraunce of his mattier; take-heede vnto y^e time of my Declaratiō. and speake-fourth thesame (like-as it shall also be founde right-true) according to the Trueth.

[ E] 12. Then saide the Lordes and Iudges: Go∣to then / let it be eauenso. O God, it is vouchsafed Thee / that thou shouldest first bringe-fourth the Declaration of thy Right before vs. So let vs now heare thy Declaration / to prooue that thou hast right in thy Cause. And Thou {reversed ;}O Search∣ing-prouidence; shalt turne thy Hearinge ther∣vnto. Wher-in then God hath right / that shalt thou acknowledge to be true.

13. If thou then be able to disaprooue thesame

{reversed ;}by alledging of any better and cleerer Certificatiō; in any-poynt / therin shalt thou then be heard also at-full. And in such Order shalt thou likewise let vs heare thy Declaration / that thou hast to ap∣prooue thy mattier right / So may wee then vn∣derstande both your Cases· and yee both likewise / our Sentence {reversed ;}that wee pronounce thesame vp∣rightlie / according to the Trueth; in right-sort / To-thende that yee {reversed ;}on both sides; may euenso approoue and acknowledge all what is right / for right· and also accomplish thesame.

The XXII. Chap.

AFter that / God spake. and saide: I [ A] will vtter-fourth my Declaratiō {reversed ;}to prooue my Title right; with good Certificatiō and cleere Vnderstandinge / before your No∣blenes {reversed ;}yee honourable Lordes; vprightlie and ac∣cording to the Trueth.

2. Beholde: I God /a 1.459 am onlie God.b 1.460 I was* 1.461 from in Eternitie / without beginninge. I am con∣tinuallie present / c 1.462 also alwayes to-com or appee∣ringe: and shall remaine without ende {reversed ;}in my hea∣uenlie Mansion and Glorious-dignitie; euerlast∣inglie. Such-like is also my Beeinge / which is an eternall Life with mee.

3. Thissame Life of myne / d 1.463 is the true Light. Thissame Light of myne / is my true Woorde ؛my only begotten Sonne{punctel} which floweth-fourth from Mee / to the Peace and Saluation of Men.

Which Woorde of myne / was also begotten of Mee eauen from the Beginninge / e 1.464 when-as I made through thesame / Heauen and Earth / with all their Ornamentes. Whosoeuer is in thesame Woorde / and the Woorde in him / hee hath my true Light: and inheriteth {reversed ;}in thesame Light;f 1.465 my Rest and Peace / and my euerlastinge Life.

[ B] 4. Yet farder / to a more-inlardginge of this my Declaration: I God myself {reversed ;}g 1.466 which am onlie the Lorde; haue also out of Myself {reversed ;}as out of an vn∣chaungeable Light; brought-fourth Dayes or Lightes / to seuerall Seruices or Offices / on the Earth / and caused thosesame / h 1.467 out of y^• Eaueninges and Morninges / for to be or to appeere / on the Earth: also {reversed ;}in my Light; I foresawe it-all / what ther was needfull in euery-behalf: and made all the∣same myself / to a good Ordinaunce.

5. Also I foresawe the Man / to make him to myne Imaige: and euenso {reversed ;}to an Imaige of God; madei 1.468 I the Man / To-thend that thesame / tho∣rough the Light of my Wisdom or Vnderstan∣dinge (k 1.469 which I haue begotten and brought vnto the Man {reversed ;}out of his Life of my Life; to an Healp for hym) shoulde gouerne all that which was brought-fourth or created through my Woorde / well and vprightlie·l 1.470 and euenso in my Beeinge / haue the Dominion / ouer the created Thinges on the Earth.

6. Beholde: All this wasm 1.471 made and orday∣ned in such-sort / through my Light / Woorde / and Wisdom. Who is-ther then that may be a God /

besidesn 1.472 I myself? Or where is-ther an other God / that can be like Mee / in my Light and Wis∣dom / and in my Woorkes?

7. Therfore I affirme heere now for Right / that I am only God. and that also it-all what∣soeuer is in Heauen and on Earth / ought to submit itself and be obedient vnto Mee / in my Woorde. Foro 1.473 it is all / my Proprietee or Very-owne.

8. AFter-that / Searching-prouidēce spake. [ C] and saide: It is true: God hath made all Thinges {reversed ;}which Hee hath made;p 1.474 through his Woorde: but-yet not without Mee. For I my∣self haue ben assuredlie (life as God himself hath also heere affirmed) in all his Woorkes / the Pro∣uidence of thesame:q 1.475 and haue foreseene it all vnto God / ereuer that hee made thesame / To-thend that Hee should make it all euenso / out of my Wisdom.

9. For I myself / was Gods Eye / or the pro∣uident Cleernes of his Light:r 1.476 Wher-through Hee sawe-into the vpright Fourme of all Thinges / ereuer that hee made thesame. And yet farder / to a more Certentie or Confirmation of my Right.

10. I myself haue also first foreseene the Man vnto God / euen-like as Hee made thesame: In like sort also / the Healp of the Man: insomuch / that Gods 1.477 made it-all / euen-like as I ؛Prouidence{punctel} foresawe it-all vnto Him. For God coulde do no∣thing without Mee / because I was y^e Sight؛the Highest and Pretioust{punctel} of the Bodye of God. For-that-cause I am also the Lorde / or a God, euen-like as God himself.

The XXIII. Chap.

[ A] THen saide God. It is true: Pro∣uidence is the Eye or the Sight / and a pretious Member of my Bodye: and that I also {reversed ;}through thesame; haue seene-into Al-thinge {reversed ;}ereuer I made it; well and a-right: Ina 1.478 like-sort also touching the Man / which I made {reversed ;}with Light / Trueth / and Prouidence; ac∣cordinge to my Beeinge {reversed ;}in all; like vnto My∣self / to-thend that the Man should liue in Mee / and I in him {reversed ;}with one Beeinge; for euermore.

2. Had now the Man with the Prouidence / remayned standinge in my Woorde / Light / or Beeinge: and not searched / for to knowe anythinge more / So should also then likewise my Light and Trueth / haue remayned still in the Man and in his Prouidence. Also the Man should not haue needed anye thinge more / for to search{reversed ;}curiouslie; after my Light or Trueth / in the Knowledge. For the Lifeb 1.479 and also the Dyinge of the Death / was sett in sight / before the Man and his Prouidence: in such-sort / that ther was not anything wanting to the Man / for to haue lyued in my Goodnes of the true Light eternallie.

3. But now / when-as the Man with the Pro∣uidence / were fallen-awaye from my vpright Bee∣ing / and the Light of my Life / c 1.480 and had taken-on to them the Searching in the Knowledge of the Good and of the Euell: and that it went so euell with the Man {reversed ;}by that occasion; continuallie /

So haue Id 1.481 sought vpon him {reversed ;}with my Woord; oftentymes / to procure him to the Obedience of my Requiringe: and haue euenso infourmed him / with my Light / To-thend that I moughte 1.482 ridde him from his Miserie· and bringe him againe vnto Mee / in the Light of my Life.

4. Howbeit / the Man / seekinge alwayes his [ B] Life and Light of Wisdom{reversed ;}through Searching-prouidence; out of the Knowledge / f 1.483 could not so knowe nor vnderstand my Light nor Wisdom / nether-yet the Obedience / which I required of him through my Woorde. And is also by that oc∣casion {reversed ;}eauen vntill thissame Daye of the righ∣teous Iudgment; remayning in his Miserie: nether coulde-ther also anyman els / deliuer him therfrom.

5. Therfore I affirme / that ther is none other Light / g 1.484 but my Life: nor-yet any other Wisdom / but the Woorde of my Trueth:h 1.485 Wher-through I haue wrought all my Woorkes.

6. It is true: That which I haue made / I haue {reversed ;}out of the Prouidence which was of-one-bee∣ing with my Godhead;i 1.486 made it-all well: but not through Searchinge-prouidence, as to search ther-after in the Knowledge / how it mought best* 1.487 accorde or ioyne-together. but as I sawe-into the vpright Fourme therof / in my Beeinge. And ac∣cording to thesame Fourme / k 1.488 it was all good / what-soeuer I made.

7. So is now therfore the Conclusion of this my Declaratiō / to prooue that I haue not brought-fourth

my Light and Wisdom / nor-yet my Woor∣kes / through Searching-prouidence in y^e Know∣ledge. but as thesame stoode nakedlie before Mee {reversed ;}in my Beeinge; according to the Trueth. Wher∣with I expresse sufficientlie {reversed ;}and haue also before expressed and prooued thesame; that my Cause is right. and that I onlie / l 1.489 am the Lorde and God.

[ C] 8. SEarchinge-prouidence hauinge heald his peace heer-at a little-while / spake af∣terwarde. and saide: God is yet for-al-that vtter∣lie vngrounded in all his Declaration / for to keepe the Right and the Authoritie-of-gouernment a∣gainst Mee.

9. For / inasmuch as I am the Sight of God / and the Principalst of the whole Bodie of God (which thinge also God himself graunteth / and must needes graunt ther-vnto:) and that I with the Mans Vnderstandinge / haue alwayes {reversed ;}tho∣rough the Searching in the Knowledg; sought the Welfare of the Man / on the Earth· and brought-fourth euenso {reversed ;}out of thesame Light of the highlie-bosted knowledgfull Wisdom; so manifolde good Pollicies vnto Peace on the Earth / So will I now therfore {reversed ;}O yee noble Lordes; yelde-ouer my Mattier {reversed ;}which I haue heere in Cleernes / dis∣couered vnto your Noblenes; whollie into your handes / for tom 1.490 iudg thesame with Righteousnes. For I haue such confidence in your Noblenes / that looke whoso hath right in his cause / him will yee defende / and yelde him right in his Title.

The XXIIII. Chap.

NOw whenas the Lordes and Iudg∣es [ A] / had throughlye-hearde and effectual∣lie vnderstoode this Declaration / on both sides / Then saide they to them both: Harken-to / what ther shall yeat {reversed ;}of Iudgmentes-part; be saide and proponed heere vnto you both.

2. To both your Concorde and Peace / and to the Concorde and Peace of all those which haue any Mattiers before the Iudgment of God and Christ, yee shall now {reversed ;}on the behalf of your Mat∣tiers; er-euer that the last Sentence be geeuen / heare yeat one Sentence / wher-with the Most-needfullest {reversed ;}that yee mought first doo euenso / or ac∣complish thesame; shall be spoken-fourth.

3. For that now {reversed ;}to a good concordable Peace; ther mought be of you Twayne and of all what is diuided {reversed ;}which ought to be One; made One:a 1.491 and that the Middel-wall / which is growen or entred∣in betwixt you both / and betwixt all those which are seperated from God and from the good Bee∣ing of God· and yet loue y^e Righteousnes / mought in thissame New Daye of the righteous Iudg∣ment /b 1.492 becom remooued / So is this now {reversed ;}in that consideration; yeat our Sentence / which wee {reversed ;}as the necessitie requireth it; will pronounce-fourth before the last Sentence.

4. Which Sentence, wee {reversed ;}as vpright Iudges and Peace-makers; do requyre / that yee both / and all those which are in Heauen and on Earth that

loue the Righteousnes / should from this present howre-fourth {reversed ;}first or before-all; fulfill or accom∣plish. And when-as thesame is fulfilled / so will wee then immediatlye ther-after / pronounce-fourth the last Sentence / or the last Iudgment: and also exe∣cute thesame speedelie / in Heauen and on Earth.

[ B] 5. Presentlie in thys Daye {reversed ;}in the vp∣right Iudgment;* 1.493 wee saye: That euery∣one / both in Heauen and also on Earth {reversed ;}like-as it is meete and right; shall from this howre-fourth / whollyec 1.494 geeue-ouer hymself in our Woorde and Requyringe {reversed ;}Testimony-of-trueth, and holie Vn∣derstandinge;· sett his right and wronge / in our Vnderstandinge and Counsell of the Wysdome· and euenso holde hym∣self wel-contented with Vs and our Ar∣bitrement or Sentence / for to doo all that which wee requyre / accordinglye.

6. For whosoeuer do whollied 1.495 geeue-ouer them∣selues / in our Woorde & Requiring / and com vnto vs: and that it were so that the Middel-wall were by them {reversed ;}wher-through the Diuision and Discorde hath had his proceeding or is com-fourth / Yet must thesame Middel-wall becom manifest and knowen vnto them: and Thosesame {reversed ;}to whom the Middel-wall is so manifested and made-knowen;

shall then also yelde themselues good-willinglie / to becom purged or ridde from thesame. let thesame be remooued from them. let themselues be prepared to an acceptable People for the Lorde· and assem∣bled to the Holyones of God: for to liue euenso with all the Holyones of God / concordablie {reversed ;}e 1.496 in all Loue; for euermore.

7. AFter-that / when-as thissame Sentence [ C] was in such-sort pronounced-fourth / by the Lordes and Iudges / so sawe I. and beholde: It pleased God and Prouidence, and also them all / that were in Heauen and on Earth {reversed ;}which loued the Righteousnes; very-well: and they all acknow∣ledged / that it was right / and ought to be don eauenso.

8. And heer-withall / they all {reversed ;}which loued the Righteousnes; gaue-ouer themselues goodwilling∣lie / in the Woorde and Requiring of Testimony-of-trueth, and of the holie Vnderstandinge. and also promised / that they wolde gladlie endeuour themselues / to accomplish all thesame / like-as the last Sentence should signifie and require.

9 Fourth-with after that / when-as thissame Geeuing-ouer was thus don / then sawe I. and beholde: Ther appeered One vnto mee / which was clothed with white Silke: and hee had a great Trumpet / which hee helde with both his Handes. And ther stoode writen on his Forehead: The Peace of God.

10. Thissame sowned his Trumpet very-lowde / ouerf 1.497 all Heauēs / and ouer all those that inhabited

therin: also ouer the whole Earth / and ouer all those that dwelled on the Earth and in thesame. And y^e Voyce of his Trumpet sounded euen-thus:

[ D] 11. REioyce now / g 1.498 O yee Heauens / and all yee that dwell therin.

12. Reioyce now / thou Earth / and all yee that dwell ther-on / which loue the Righteousnes.

13. Reioyce now / yeeh 1.499 Dead / which lye in the Earth / and are disceassed in Christ.

14. For this-daye yee shall alli 1.500 rise-vpp from the Death. and all what is yeat on the Earth {reversed ;}that lo∣ueth the Righteousnes;k 1.501 becom chaunged / and com to the Iudgment of Righteousnes.

15. Now shall the righteousl 1.502 Iudgment passe∣fourth / or be brought-to-light / accordinge to the Trueth: and the syncere Righteousnes {reversed ;}like-as it was from in Eternitie / and shall also remaine per∣petuallie; becom manifestlie declared.

16. Now shall likewise all whatsoeuer is in Hea∣uen and on the Earth / bem 1.503 iudged with Righte∣ousnes. And the Earth / and all Generations / Na∣tions / and People {reversed ;}which haue geeuen-ouer them∣selues to the Woord of Testimony-of-trueth and of the holie Vnderstandinge; shall now obtaine theirn 1.504 Blessinge / accordinge to the Promises.

The XXV. Chap.

[ A] THe-whylst that this Trumpet was yeat thus a-sowninge / so were the Lordes and Iudges in a redines / for to pronoūce-fourth

the vpright Iudgment / accordinge to the Trueth / and to sett the Parties {reversed ;}to Concordable∣nes; at-peace: and spake both-alike together / first these Woordes:

2. INasmuch as that God hath made his Declaration / that Hee was from in Eter∣nitie· and in the Beginninge when-as Hee made him y^e Man / onlie the Lorde / a 1.505 the Life / the Light / and the true Woord and Wisdom itself: and euen∣so foresawe it-all / what-euer Hee made. And that Prouidence hath also declared / that hee first fore∣sawe all thinges {reversed ;}according to the vpright Fourme therof; vnto God: and that Godb 1.506 made all the∣same accordinglie / So knowe wee very-well / that all thesame is good. and that ether-other / in the∣same Cause of his {reversed ;}when-as they both were yeat of vnifourme-beeing / and stood vndiuided in one Bee∣inge; hath well {reversed ;}for the first; good right.

3. But now / heere-betweene ther is a secreat [ B] Middel-wall entred-in / the which {reversed ;}or what the∣same is; is not perhappes seene or espyed by euery∣one. For wee note / that in the Beginninge of the Creation of Man on the Earth / ther was by God* 1.507 and by all his Kingdom / and by all the Mem∣bers of his Bodie / great Peace and Concorde. Howbeit after-that / when-as God had made the Man {reversed ;}on the Earth;c 1.508 to an Imaige of himself {reversed ;}as a Life / of his Life / a Light / of his Light / and a Pro∣uidence / of his Prouidence: and also out of hym / the Vnderstandinge / to an Healp of thesame Bee∣inge; so became-ther ad 1.509 Middel-wall betwixt God

and his Imaige / like-as it in this present Day ap∣peereth before Vs. Through which Middel-wall (which also may well be a Misvnderstandinge / wherby the one cannot vnderstande the other a∣right) ther is likewise entred-in euery-wheare on the Earth / so great Variaunce and Iniquitie· and so manifolde Deceiptes and Falshod.

[ C] 4. It is true: God hath heer-vnto / bestowed alwayes great dilligence / e 1.510 through his Messen∣gers / for to plucke the Man with his Woorde / to the Obedience of y^e Requiring of thesame Woord· and to his vpright Beeinge / wherby hee mought be ridde from the Iniquitie· and liue in all Loue and Peace.

5. In like-maner: Prouidence hath also be∣stowed alwayes great dilligence {reversed ;}through Search∣inge in the Knowledge; with the Mans Vnder∣standinge / for to bringe the Man into good Or∣der: and for-that-cause also (to-thende that the Man should liue peaceablie on the Earth· and be deliuered from the Destruction of the Iniquitie) hath brought-in many requisite Pollicies & Lawes. Howbeit / the Man is not in all those-same {reversed ;}f 1.511 euen til-vnto thissame Day of the righteous Iudgment of God on the Earth; releassed from the Iniquitie / nor brought vnto y^e Peace: nor-yet also theg 1.512 Mid∣del-wall {reversed ;}wherthrough all Iniquitie is proceeded; made-knowen / wherby the Man mought haue ben broughth 1.513 vnto Peace and Concorde· and the true Righteousnes / haue gotten the Victorye on the Earth.

6. Forasmuch now then as that this Middel-wall / [ D] hath not ben rightlie seen-into by Many∣aone: and that also by that occasion / the one could not vnderstande the other. and the Iniquitie hath preuayled in Victorie / and that the Loue is like∣wise therthrough / waxen-colde with Many / So hath also the Man {reversed ;}and almost it-all what dwel∣leth on the Earth; consumed his tyme {reversed ;}till vnto thissame Daye of the true Iudgment of God;i 1.514 in greeuous Miserie / and plucked much Dissention and Iniquitie on his owne necke. But now in this∣same New Daye (wher-through allk 1.515 thinges must euen-now becom manifested) the Faylel 1.516 and Middel-wall {reversed ;}which is the Occasion of all Ini∣quitie & Variaunce; is nakedlie appeered in Sight and rightlie made-knowen / vnto Vs ؛Testimo∣ny-of-trueth and holie Vnderstandinge{punctel}.

The XXVI. Chap.

AFter these Woordes / the Lordes [ A] and Iudges spake yet one other Sayinge / before the last Sentence. and saide:

2. FOrasmuch now as that y^•a 1.517 Iniquitie•• / together with the subtile Falshod / and the most-wylie Heartes / are so exceedinglie multi∣plied euery-wheare / with the Man on the Earth / and that the Occasion of all this Iniquitie / is not knowen vnto eueryone: and that moreouer God and Prouidence, and eueryone that loueth the Righteousnes / wolde most-gladlie s••e the Salua∣tion

and Welfare of the Man / and the Peace on the Earth: and yet neuertheles / ther is greatb 1.518 Va∣riaunce entred-in: and that therto eueryone that loueth the Righteousnes / hath now goodwilling∣lie c 1.519 geeuen-ouer himself / in our Woorde & Coun∣sell of the Wisdom· and sett all thinges in our Handes (to-thende that all this Controuersie / andd 1.520 the Meane wher-through the Iniquitie hath so multiplied itself / as also the Iniquitie herself / should be remooued or vtterlye rooted-out· and so al-thinge bee 1.521 restored againe / into hys vpright Fourme) / So harken heere now therfore vnto this our Saying and Requiringe. For euen after-that / wee will pronounce-fourth an vpright Sen∣tence of it all.

3. For that euery-one mought now {reversed ;}in this∣same Daye of the righteous Iudgment of God; be preserued from thef 1.522 Perrels of great Damaige both to Soule and Bodie / so let not anyone {reversed ;}from thissame present Daye fourth;g 1.523 take vpon hym for to blame or accuse the one the-other / as touching his Offices behalf. nether-yet also that the Ini∣quitie and Variaunce is growen to be on y^e Earth / by anymans Fault: Nether shall also anyone {reversed ;}the one against the-other; esteeme or geeue-fourth him∣self h 1.524 for great {reversed ;}ether high-of-reputation; for his knowledgfull Wisdoms cause: nor desire in such respect / to be the Lorde / or to beare the Lordship. But that which Wee pronounce to an vpright Iudgment or Sentence / shall eueryone doo / and not omitt to accomplish thesame.

4. Eueryone shall from this howre-fourth [ B] / endeuour hym for to enter-in or com theare with his Beeinge / * 1.525 wheare hee and his Beeing was in the Beginning / er-euer Godi 1.526 made the Man on the Earth: and assemble hym euenso againe / to his vp∣right Beeinge [namelie / into thesame State / as his Beeinge was in his Peace / er-euer God made the Man on the Earth.] And all what eueryone had then / and all whatsoeuer is flowen or issued with Hym / out of thesame former Beeinge / all that shall hee bring-in againe {reversed ;}with hymself; to thesame Bee∣inge: k 1.527 Also forsake all that which is not of thesame Beeinge / or proceedeth not ther∣from.

5. Beholde / and haue now all / a good regarde to this last Sentence: for in the Fulfillinge of the∣same /l 1.528 all Middel-walles / Dissentions / and Ini∣quities {reversed ;}which are growen to be euen from the Be∣ginninge / and haue brought-in all Variaunce and Disturbaunce; shall not choose but remaine with∣out the Man / and passe-awaye to nothinge / inas∣much as thesame Iniquities / are not of the vpright Beeinge of God nor of the Man / nether-yet pro∣ceede ther-from.

6. When now then thissame is thus accompli∣shed

by eueryone / so shall it be well seen-into and knowen by eueryone / what hee ism 1.529 of himself. Also what Seruice or Office ther belongeth to him for to minister or vse: and which is also his Glorie / whervnto hee hath right. For hee shall then inherit all thesame / and liue therin peaceablie.

[ C] 7. O God, Heer-in shalt thou first haue the Fore-goinge: Settinge thy-self in the Fourme of thesame Beeinge / like-as thou hast ben from in Eternitie / and like-as thou wast in the Be∣ginninge / er-euer thou madest the Man / on the Earth.

8. Forasmuch then as that thou art an heauen∣lie Beeinge / n 1.530 Light / and Spirit / so shalt thou plucke all that which is gon-fourth or flowen-out from Thee to the Earth {reversed ;}to-wit / heauenlie Bee∣inges / Lightes / and Spirites; againe vnto thee. And all what cometh to thee ther-of / that-same shalt thou receaue / and set or ordaine it in his vp∣right Ordinaunce.

9. In such like-sort / shalt thou also {reversed ;}O Proui∣dence; sett thyself in the Fourme of thesame Bee∣inge / like-as thou hast ben from in Eternitie / and like-as thou wast in the Beginninge / er-euer God made the Man / on the Earth: And all that which was than by thee / and all what is flowen-fourth with thee / out of thesame Beeinge / that-same shalt thou plucke againe vnto thee / into thesame Bee∣inge. And all what cometh to thee ther-of / that shalt thou receaue: and euenso shall then that-same also enter-in with thee / to his right Ordinaunce.

10. LEt eueryone respect-well this vpright [ D] Sentence of the righteous Iudgment / which Wee heere-now {reversed ;}in the last or newest Daye; do pronounce-fourth according to y^e Trueth. For it concerneth eueryone / o 1.531 so-well the earthlie and naturall Beeing / in His / as the heauenlie and spi∣rituall Beeinge / in His. For this is nowp 1.532 the Last Iudgment / wher-vnto the Loue and her Seruice reacheth.

11. For-that-cause / O thou earthlie and natu∣rall Beeing / thou shalt also endeuour thyself / for to sett thee {reversed ;}accordinge to the Requiringe of the Woorde of the Lorde and his Seruice of Loue; in the Fourme of thesame Beeinge / like-as thou wast in the Beginninge / er-euerq 1.533 God made the Man / on the Earth: And all what-soeuer is de∣parted from thy Beeinge / as earthlie and Nature / that shalt thou pluck vnto thee againe. And all what cometh vnto thee ther-of / that shalt thou also receaue / and sett or ordaine each-one {reversed ;}according to his right Beeinge and Nature; in his right Or∣dinaunce.

12. And when-as now thissame {reversed ;}with eueryone which hath a Lust for to enter into his right Bee∣inge and Ordinaunce; is all euen-thus brought-to-passe and accomplished. and when-as also the Tymer 1.534 of Grace {reversed ;}for eueryone to enter-in to his vpright Beeinge; is ouer-passed or ended / Then shall all that which remayneth-ouer / with-out the vpright Beeinge [namelie / of that which is Spiri∣tuall and Naturall]: and whatsoeuer is not profi∣table

or necessarie for anythinge in Heauen nor on Earth / be vtterlie rooted-out / ands 1.535 burnt with the Fire: So shall then trulie the manyfolde-sort of Iniquitie and Variaunce {reversed ;}together with all those that loue or practise Iniquitie / Variaunce / & Ren∣tinge; com euenso vtterlie to an ende.

[ E] 13. For all that which is of wicked Kynde and Will / shall be throwen to-gethert 1.536 into the hellish Fire of the euerlastinge Damnation:v 1.537 wheare the Worme of their gnawinge Conscience doth neuer dye / nether shall the hellish Fire of their Condem∣nation / be euermore quenched-out: for their Con∣demnation shall endure euerlastinglie.

14. Then shal-ther not be els-what in Heauen and on Earth / but Righteousnes / Loue / & Peace. andx 1.538 the vniuersall Earth be inhabited in Peace· andy 1.539 gouerned with Righteousnes / euerlastinglie. For so {reversed ;}like-as wee haue saide it; it is right / and an vpright Iudgment / For to bringe all that which is declyned or estraunged from his vpright Beeinge / into his vpright Fourme and peaceable Beeinge againe.

The XXVII. Chap.

[ A] NOw whenas the Lordes and Iudg∣es / had pronounced-fourth thissame Sen∣tence and their Wordes / in such-maner / it pleased God and Prouidence also {reversed ;}toge∣ther with all those that loued the Righteousnes; very-well: and eueryone acknowledged / that the

Iudgment and the Sentence was pronounced-fourth vprightlie / according to the Trueth: and that it also ought so to com-to-passe by eueryone.

2. And all they that loued the Righteousnes / lauded and thanked the Most-highest / a 1.540 that the New-daye {reversed ;}b 1.541 to the Renewinge of all that which is waxen-olde; was appeered and com: and that the Generations of Men {reversed ;}through the true Light of thesame New-daye / and through the Fulfilling of the last Sentences; mought com or be brought to theirc 1.542 Blessing and Saluation.

3. AFter-that I sawe. and behold: The dead Righteousonesd 1.543 stoode all vpp / from the Death / and became {reversed ;}with all those which yeat lyued on the Earth / and walked in the Obedience of the Loue; chaunged {reversed ;}through the New Life of God; out of the Consumeable / into the Vnconsumeable· and {reversed ;}with perfect Ioye; assembled {reversed ;}e 1.544 very try∣umphantlie; to God and Christ, and to all the Sainctes of God / in the heauenlie Beeinge: And euenso {reversed ;}with Ioye; eueryone gaue himself {reversed ;}accor∣ding to the Requiring of the last Sentence; to his vpright Beeinge / and to his right Place and Or∣dinaunce. And it becamef 1.545 all / one God with God / that was Gods.g 1.546 and one Kingdom of God / in all Heauens / and that with perfect Glorie.

4. But the Curious-searchinge and the Accu∣ser [ B] {reversed ;}which were entred-in / besides the Prouidence and y^e Mans Vnderstandinge▪ had not any place in God nor in his Prouidence, nor in y^e sanctified Vnderstandinge: For their Habitation was not

therin / from in Eternitie. And they descended vnto the Earth / and fourth into theh 1.547 Bottomles-pitt: with whom also / the seconde Death· together with all Vngodlie / and their vngodly Beeinge / were throwen-in and damned.

5. And the earthlie Beeinge / and the Nature / together with all that which was naturall on the Earth / and loued the Equitie / did also endeuour itself / for to set itself {reversed ;}according to the Requiring of the last Sentence; in his vpright Fourme and Beeinge / on the Earth.

6. And euenso {reversed ;}through the Illuminatinge of the New Life of God on the Earth; all that which was Nature / and loued and had of the earthlie Beeinge / an vpright Beeing of the Nature / i 1.548 went into his vpright Beeinge and Ordinaunce. And so ther was on the Earth / k 1.549 a great Peace / with all vpright Natures and naturall Thinges. And euenso eueryone came againe {reversed ;}according to his vp∣right Kinde or Nature; vnto his right Place / and into his vpright Ordinaunce / euen-like as it was in the Beginninge.

[ C] 7. NOw when-as God had gathered-toge∣ther all that which was His: namely / that was of his Beeing / and loued the Righte∣ousnes; vnto him (eauen-like as anl 1.550 Husbandman gathereth his Wheat {reversed ;}from the Fielde; into his Barnes) and that all the true Heauenly and Spi∣rituall / was com vnto Heauē / and to God {reversed ;}m 1.551 which is a Spirit;: and that in like-maner on the Earth / all what was Earthlie and Naturall {reversed ;}which loued

the naturall Equitie; was com into the vpright Fourme of his naturall Beeinge: and that also the Iniquitie / with all those that loued and serued the∣same / were seperated therfrom / Then sawe I. and beholde:

8. Ouer the vniuersall Face of the Earth / ther appeered One clothed with an Habergion & Har∣nesse / and gyrded with an yron Chayne. And both his Handes / and from his Gyrdel-fourth / euen vnto the verye ende of his Feete / hee was very read and weat of Bloud. And hee had in each Hande a Sworde. The Sworde in his Leaft-hande / was also very read and weat of Bloud. But the Sworde in his Right-hande / was alto∣gether a glowinge Fire / which glynsened and crackt very terriblie / with many Firie-flames. And ther stoode written on his Forehead / The Ven∣geaunce of God.

9. Thissame cryed very-lowde / with a terrible [ D] Sounde: and the Sounde of his Voyce sounded euen-thus:

10. Vengeaunce / Ven-engeaunce / Ven∣en-engeaunce / ouer all Bloud-giltyones / which hauen 1.552 oppressed the Single-minded· and shead or spilt the innocent Bloud / together with the Bloud of the Witnesses of the Woorde of God Iesus Christ / on the Earth.

11. Now swiftlie / now swiftlie / Yea now very-swiftlie {reversed ;}in thissame great and terrible Daye;o 1.553 ther cometh {reversed ;}to a Reuengement; ouer all Vngodlie /

and ouer all those which loue and cleane-vnto the Iniquitie / great Wo / Miserye / Bitternes-of-smart / and the euerlasting Death / with the eternall Damnation in the hellish Fire.

12. Wo / Wo-o / Wo-o-o / vntop 1.554 all the Enemies of the Lorde and his Holyones / and vnto all the Enemies of the Famelie of Loue: and also vnto all those that haue not respected y^e Grace of Life {reversed ;}whilst that thesame was proffered vnto them;q 1.555 to Repentaunce for their Sinnes. and vn∣to those which {reversed ;}to the Peace and Concord of the Loue; haue not geeuen-ouer themselues {reversed ;}vnder the Obedience of the Loue; to Testimony-of-trueth and the holie Vnderstandinge. and vnto those which haue walked and dealt falslie / against the Famelie of Loue / and haue not shewed any Sor∣rowe / Confession / r 1.556 nor Repentaunce for thesame.

13. After-that when-as this Voyce / had so geeuen-fourth his Sounde ouer the vniuersall Earth / so sawe I. and beholde: Ther appeered out of Heauen / many thowsande Angels. All these cryed together {reversed ;}with a great Sounde; ouer the Earth / and ouer all those which dwelled on the Earth. And the Sounde of them all / was like as a Sounde of a great Noyze of many thowsande Trompettes.

14. Howbeit / this Sounde of all these Angels / was with great Ioye and Gladnes. and sounded euen-thus:

[ E] 15. THis is the greats 1.557 Daye of the Lorde / Yea / the last Daye of the righteous

Iudgment of God / with his Sainctes or Ho∣lyones.

16. This is the New Daye / t 1.558 which the Lorde hath made: wherin all the Holyones of God do reioyce them / and receaue their Rewarding / in the euerlastinge Life.

17. This is the appointed Daye / v 1.559 which God himself hath constituted and sett or ordained: in the which / God doth now iudge the Compasse of the Earth with Righteousnes: and will recompence all the Enemies of God / and the Enemies of hys Holyones / with that which they haue deserued. For they shall now be vtterlie rooted-out·x 1.560 and throwen into the hellish Fire of euerlastinge Dam∣nation.

18. AFter-that I sawe. and beholde: These Angels gathered all that to-gether on an Heape (like-as the Seruantes of an Husband∣man / do gather the Weede {reversed ;}of the Fielde;y 1.561 all on an Heape) which remayned-ouer / and was not a∣nye vpright heauenlie or spirituall Beeinge· nor a∣nye vpright earthlie or naturall Beeinge: also all that which had intangled or held-fast itself on the Iniquitie / and whatsoeuer had seperated itself from the Loue and her vpright Beeinge· and not respec∣ted the Entraunce into his right Beeinge and Or∣dinaunce. z 1.562 and threwe it all to-gether into the hel∣lish Fire of the euerlastinge Condemnation / which the Deuell and all his Ministers {reversed ;}through the Hardnes of their Heartes in the Iniquitie; had prepared to themselues.

The XXVIII. Chap.

[ A] AFter-that / when-as all that which stoode-mynded to y^e Iniquitie & Destructiō / was thus vtterlie rooted-out frō the Earth· anda 1.563 condemned in the Hell or Bottomles∣pitt / Then sawe I. and beholde: Ther was in Heauen and on Earth / a great and eternall firme Peace / to-wit / b 1.564 in all / New Heauens / and New Earth / wherin Righteousnes dwelleth.

2. And the Holyones of God / were chosen on the Earth / to bec 1.565 Priestes & Kinges / for to raigne euenso on the Earth / and to gouerne thesame with Righteousnes. And it became on the Earth and ouer the Earth / Eight Dayes / which also remay∣ned alwayes and for euer / in the Seruice or Office of their Light.

3. These Eight Dayes / were thesame Lightes / which I had seene before: andd 1.566 they were all Ho∣lye-dayes of the Lorde. And euenso the one Holye∣daye followed on the other / all which were also sanctified / each-one in the Office of his Light. Also there 1.567 was not any-more Night. And euenso out∣of great Ioye {reversed ;}for the true Light and euerlastinge Peaces cause / which was com in Heauen and on Earth;f 1.568 ther was sunge euery-wheare / in Heauen and on Earth / Allelu-ia, Allelu-ia: That is / Great Laude and Thankes-geeuing to the Lorde.

[ B] 4. NOw when that all this was thus reuea∣led and shewed vnto mee / then sawe I and vnderstoode in my Spirit / that in thissame

New org 1.569 Eight Daye / the whole Scripture of the holie Propheates & Euangelistes / wash 1.570 fulfilled. and that also the God of Heauen / was becom a Kinge and Prince / i 1.571 and the chief Iudge on the Earth. For it-all {reversed ;}both in Heauen and also on Earth; was subiect or stoode bowed {reversed ;}to Obedience; vnto the God of Heauen.

5. This is verelie Gods Kingdom / k 1.572 which is com with Righteousnes: Wher-throughl 1.573 the Will of the Lorde & God / becometh accomplished {reversed ;}in all and ouer all; on the Earth / as in Heauen.

6. NOw after that I had seene-into all this / according to the Trueth: and that this∣same Reuelation of God and his great Prophe∣tie / together with all fore-passed and to-cominge Thinges / were shewed in naked Cleernes vnto Mee· and expounded by Testimony-of-trueth, or the Vnderstanding of those-same opened / So saide Testimony-of-trueth yet-farder vnto Mee:

7. Retaine it-allm 1.574 in thy Heart and Vnder∣standinge / which is heere shewed vnto thee / and tolde thee. For of all thesame {reversed ;}like-as it is chaunced vnto thee; it shall not faile in one Iote / to be all eauenso brought-to-passe and accomplished in this present Daye / al-ouer the vniuersall Earth.

8. For-that-cause / thou shalt not concease ether [ C] hide thissame. but out of the Loue {reversed ;}wherwith thou art Deptour to loue thy Neighbour; contine••tlie make it manifest.

9. Thus-doinge / so shall then now in thissame Daye of the Loue / the vpright Sentences / and the

righteous Iudgment of God (like-as thesame is iudged by Vs ؛Testimony-of-trueth and holie Vnderstandinge{punctel}) together with all that which thou hast seene and heard / and is chaunced vnto thee / becom {reversed ;}through the Seruice of the Loue; spread-abrode ouer the vniuersall Earth· also pub∣lished and brought{reversed ;}n 1.575 to an Euangelie or Ioyful-messaige of the Kingdom; to the Louers of the Trueth and Righteousnes· and all what is on the Earth / required and procured {reversed ;}ther-with; into his vpright Fourme or Beeinge / To-thende that all the Children of Men / should not through the Vengeaunce of God{reversed ;}·o 1.576 which cometh now swiftlie ouer the Worlde; be rooted-out from the Earth / nor condemned· but that they all {reversed ;}which loue the vpright Righteousnes; mought remayne-ouer / or be preserued / to Saluation.

10. For all that which is not of the vpright Kynde of the Beeinge of God: nether-yet decent or orderlie / in the naturall Beeinge / nor standeth inclyned ther-vnto. but is whollie mynded ther-against / shall now {reversed ;}with twigge and roote; bep 1.577 vt∣terlie rooted-out· and condemned in y^e hellish Fire.

The XXIX. Chap.

[ A] IN all thissame which I had seene and hearde· and that Testimonye-of-trueth had spoken vnto Mee / I reioyced mee very-much / eauen with great Ioye. And euenso {reversed ;}with a merye Heart; I bowed mee

downe to the Feete of the Lorde: laudinge and thankinge the God of Heauen / for that the Daye and Howre of his righteous Iudgmenta 1.578 was com. and that I HN؛ his humble Seruant {reversed ;}had reached to the pretious or worthie Tyme / in the which / al-thing shall now go in his vpright Course· and he gouerned vprightlye / accordinge to the Trueth.

2. REioyce you all also with mee / O yee good-willing Heartes to the Loue / and yee all that dwell on the Earth / which loue the Trueth and Righteousnes / and the Vnytie of Heart / in the Loue of Iesu Christ. For I bringe and publish to you all / a ioyfull Messaige of the Kingdom of y^e God of Heauens and of his Righ∣teousnes.

3. Beholde / Presentlie in this Daye / is the [ B] Kingdom of the God of Heauensb 1.579 and his Righ∣teousnes / the godlie Maiestie and his Glorie / as also the Saluation of Christ and the eternall Life / appeered in perfect Cleernes {reversed ;}with great Tryumph and Ioye; vnto vs / and com on the Earth. Tho∣rough which saide Cleernes / wee are also let to see and ther is made-knowen vnto vs therby / c 1.580 the Saluation of Men / in Iesu Christ,d 1.581 the Resur∣rection of the Dead / the Clensinge of the Earth / thee 1.582 Blessing of all Generations of the Earth / the righteousf 1.583 Iudgment of God / the Appeering of the glorious Comminge of Christ with all the Thowsandes of his Sainctes / and the euerlasting Condemnation of all Vngodlie / in the hellish Fire.

4. For-that-cause / geeue now vnto that God which liueth from euerlastinge to euerlastinge / onlie the Honour: and laude Him in thissameg 1.584 New Daye / with great Thankes-geeuinge. For Hee ؛thesame great and glorious God{punctel} hath not leaft vs Little and Pooreones / ash 1.585 Orphantes / ether fatherles: but is {reversed ;}eauen as a good and faithfull Father; com vnto vs / with full Grace / Loue / and Mercie: and hath begotten vs {reversed ;}Wee meane I / which haue had a stedfast Confidence on God and Christ / eauen vnto the seconde Birth;i 1.586 from the Death. and made vs Heyres in his Light / in the Throne of his glorious Maiestie / and in the loue∣lie k 1.587 Rest of his Holyones: and {reversed ;}euen as Fellowe-members of Christ and God; incorporated Vs in∣to him / and made vs glorious with him / l 1.588 wherby wee mought liue and raigne with God and Christ / for euermore.

[ C] 5. Therfore reioyce and showte now all with cheerfull Heartes: and singem 1.589 on all Wayes / and in all Streates {reversed ;}alwayes and for euer; the Laude∣songe of the Lorde / Allelu-ia, Allelu-ia. and reioyce you euenso with great Ioy and Thankes-geeuing / in the New Kingdom of the godlie Maiestie / on the Earth.

6. O all yee that loue the Righteousnes / and also all yee People which dwell on Earth / and that reade or heare to-daye / the Woordes of this Reuelation of God and of his great Prophe∣tie / Respect-well thissamen 1.590 gratious Time / and geeue-ouer yourselues now whollie / to the Testi∣monye

For This-daye yee are all {reversed ;}heer∣with; q 1.593 required ther-vnto / To-thende that yee all now {reversed ;}in this Daye of the Loue of God the Fa∣ther; mought becomr 1.594 planted into the good Bee∣inge of God· and so preserued in thesame / and not perrish or be rooted-out with the Vngodlie / nor with all those that are vngodlie of will / nor-yet be damned in the Hell / euerlastinglie.

7. Beholde / This-daye yee are all / yeat warned [ D] of the Destruction / and for auoyding of the horri∣ble Condemnation / er-euer that it light vpon you / to-thende that yee in that Daye / when-as the Destruction and Condemnation (if yee bes 1.595 vnbe∣leeuinge to the Trueth) doth catch you / f 1.596 as a Trap-snare / and that yee must beare the Miserie with the Vngodlie / should not haue anything (as that yee haue heard or knowen nothing therof) to excuset 1.597 or vngiltie yourselues with-all.
