A Word to the WORLD. FRom the Spirit of Truth, as a tender visitation of my Father's love, that they may yet return unto him that is able to save from sin and iniquity, and no longer resist the Spirit of truth within them, which yet striveth with them, that they may no longer feed on vain imaginations, which profiteth nothing; for I have seen your abominations in the Light of the Lord, and that you are not accepted by him, neither will he always strive with you, to call you to repentance; but for his Seed's sake he once more calleth you, if ye will hearken, and not be rebellious, but harken diligently, that your souls may live in the day of the Lord, which hasteneth, wherein nothing but that which is of himself shall be accepted: I say, it's that which his own right hand hath planted, that shall see his presence which will be glorious to that part which is of himself; for unto that all minds must be gathered, which teacheth to deny ungodliness and worldly lusts, and leadeth into all truth; for he alone is able that reproveth for sin, to lead out of sin; for his Arm is not shortened that he cannot save, nor his ear heavy, that he cannot hear; for he lives and works as in the days of old, and delighteth to do good as much as ever, and waiteth to be gracious to his people; he hath not forgot his promise, that he would show mercy unto the rebellious, and that he would bring back the captivity of Zion, and dress his Vinyard himself, and send forth Pastors of his own, that shall delight to do his will. Wherefore return you wanderers, unto the good Shepherd, that you may be led out of darkness into the liberty of the sons of God with me, to lie down in peace where none can make you afraid; but as you turn and fly from him that reproveth sin in the gate, so you turn and fly from him that would lead you into safety, peace & pure obedience, and to wait to do the will of God in all things, and not your own; for I declare in the moving of the Spirit of the Lord, that unless you come to witness in you that birth destroyed which is of the flesh, you cannot come to partake of that peace which is everlasting; therefore whilst you have a day, prise it; and no longer turn the Grace of God into wantonness; for he will yet have mercy, and repent of the evil that he hath against you: And therefore fear before the living God who created all things for his service, and to be at his command; for when God created Adam, and set him in Paradise, he said, Touch not of the Tree of knowledge of good and evil, which command he broke, and so was driven out of Paradise from the peace. And so my Friends, you that are not acquainted with the way to an endless life, wait in that which showeth you in secret the evil; that's the way which will lead you into all truth; even to as many as believe in it, and patiently wait in ●t, they shall see salvation from the lowest depth, & they shall witness with me, that he alone is able to work a great work, and to deliver the seed in bondage, which traveleth for deliverance, that it may come to have the Heirship unto whom it belongeth to have the pre-eminence in all things, who alone is worthy of all honour & glory both now and for ever and ever, Amen. A Word to the Episcopal people (so called) who have not slain the Witness, by making War against the Light THe Message of everlasting peace is come, if you will hearken to it, and not fly the Cross of Christ, which is the Power of God unto salvation to as many as believe in it, and patiently wait in it, to be led and guided by it who is come to destroy sin in the creature, and to set up the Kingdom of Righteousness: Therefore haste, haste, haste out of Babylon at God's call, before a day of bitter howling overtake you, which you shall not escape except ye repent, the Lord hath spoken it; Wherefore slight not your call, but turn to the Lord your God with all your heart, and cease from sin, and wait to know the voice of the good Shepherd, that his will may be done in earth as it is in Heaven, and not your own in any thing; for straight is the way that leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it: But a certain number there be that have found it, praises be to his Name for evermore, who in his everlasting love hath visited us, and brought a remnant out of Egypt, and he will bring more that shall praise his Name, as I do this day: Therefore sleep not, but be awakened unto life eternal; for this is the day that God calleth to you by his servant, that hath tasted of the lovingkindness of the Lord, and I am made to invite you to taste of this Heavenly Treasure, that you may eat and be satisfied, that your souls may live and be nourished up unto life Eternal; for he alone is able to feed you, that saith, I am the way, the truth, and the life, even Christ Jesus the Light of the world, that enlighteneth every one that cometh into the world, even he that was dead, and is alive, and liveth for evermore, who is come to judge the world in righteousness. Therefore in the uprightness of my heart, and in love have I written, who am a lover of your souls. Marry Anderdon From Exon- Gaol 23. of the 9 month, 1662. where I am a prisoner for Truth's sake.
