All Friends every where This is the Word of the Lord Unto you All.  
ALL to live in the Seed, in which all Nations are blessed; in which Seed you are blessed every way, in your rising up and lying down; in your goings forth and comings in: & you have the Blessings from Above, & the Blessings from Beneath, in this Holy Seed; yea, the Blessings of him that dwelled in the Bush, that makes the very Ground Holy, that you tread upon, who brings you out of the World, which is a Bushy, Thorny Wilderness, that ye might dwell in this blessed Seed, in which all Nations are blessed; which bruises the Serpents Head, which was the first Questioner, and Tempter, and liar, and Deceiver; and Man and Woman by hearkening or giving Ear to this Questioner, Liar and Tempter, the Serpent, they fell from their Habitation in the Image of God, and so went out of their Habitation and Service, that God had placed them in, and commanded them to do.  
But now, the Seed of the Woman is come, that bruises the Serpents Head, in which Seed Christ, all Nations are blessed.  
And all you who live and walk in this Seed, you live in him that bruises the Serpents Head, that Liar, Tempter, and Questioner; yea, and every one by this Seed Christ, is renewed up into the Image of God, as Adam and Eve was in the Beginning: Then you are all in your Habitations of Life and Truth, and the Image of God; and in it you know your Services, that the Lord God Almighty commands you. And you living in this Holy Seed, you live over all Vain unruly Talkers, and vain Disputers, Men of corrupt Minds, which have the Form of Godliness, but deny the Power thereof; all such as live in the Seed that bruises the Serpents Head, turn away from such, for their work is to destroy; whose words eat as a Canker; who do profess Truth in words, the Form of Godliness, but in their Works, deny the Power thereof, who are to every good work or service Reprobate.  
And these are the raging Waves of the Sea and Tempests, they are known by their tempestuous Spirit, and its raging, like a raging Wave of the Sea, casting up Mire and Dirt; a Murdering Spirit, like Cain, a Gain-saying Spirit, like konrah, and erred from the true Spirit, like Balaam: No Rain in their Clouds, no Water in their Wells, nor Fruit on their Trees; twice dead, that is, once dead, and made alive, and dead again; so they cannot grow in the Truth, Light, nor the Spirit of God, nor his Gospel; but such corrupt the Earth, and corrupt Peoples Minds; sowers of Discord, Strife, and Contention; Co-workers with the Serpent to beguile the unstable Minds; all such the Seed of God reigns over.  
And therefore in this Holy Seed Christ, all live and walk, and shunn such evil Spirits and their Works; and all be established in this Seed Christ Jesus, that the Serpentine Spirit, either by its Srrife, Vain-Jangling, Vain-Disputing, or its sowing of dissension, Tempting and Questioning, nor with feigned, fair, flattering, Inticeing Words may not draw you out of your Habitation of the Seed, Christ Jesus; and the Image of God, and your work and service in it, that God and Christ commands you.  
And therefore beware of this Serpentine Spirit, that you may not be deceived, as Eve was; and beware of Doggs that will bite and devour you; and beware of Evil-workers, though they have never such fair words to deceive the Hearts of the simplo: Beware of false Prophets, which are inwardly ravened from the Spirit of God, and are become Wolves, though they have got the sheeps-clothing, and the words of Truth, of Christ, and his Apostles, but whose Fruits are thorns and Thistles: and the Seed Christ, that discovers all these things, in him live, grow up and walk, and be established.  
Beware of the Leaven of the Pharisees, who make an outward Profession of the Holy Mens Words, but are persecutors of the Seed Christ Jesus, in whom all Nations are blessed, and despisers of his peaceable Government, of the Increase of which there is no end: and in this blessed Seed the Serpent cannot come, nor none of his Instruments nor Angels, which are Evil Spirits: And all the Doters about Questions and Strife of words, and the vain Janglers & vain perverse Disputers & Contenders, & the Sowers of Strife & dissension, makers of Debate and Strife. All this is out of the blessed peaceable Seed; let them profess the Truth of all the New and Old Testament in Words, without the Power of God,( that they are turned away from, and therefore they are to be turned away from) the Trumpet of the Lord, his Spirit and Power is blown against them, though they have never such high swelling words of Vanity, and have never so many flattering fair words and good speeches, and trimmed and decked with the sheeps-clothing, yet they are in the Wolfs nature, and Harlotted from the Lamb and his Nature, and so from the Seed Christ, in whom all the Children of the Kingdom and the Elect are to walk, that are of his H●avenly and Spiritual Generation, and grow up in him as Trees of Righteousness, whose Fruits are unto Holiness, and whose end will be Everlasting Life. And the ●nd of that Spirit and Fruits before-mentioned, that are out of Christ and his peaceable Truth; will be Destruction in the Lake of Fire. And that is the Word of the Lord to you all; therefore be warned what you join to, and what you lay hands on suddenly.  
For I remember before we were called Quakers, as I was sitting in an House in Nottinghamshire,( about the Year 1648) the Word of the Lord came to me and said; Those that should come to be Convinced with the Light and Spirit of God, and should come so far as Cain to hear God's Voice, and as far as Balaam to hear God's Voice, and to have some Openings, and to come so far as Corah, Dathan, and Abiram, these should be the Deceivers, and the Troublers of the Church of Christ, and seek to destroy the Faithful, and betray them: who formerly had some Experience to talk of, but did not live in the Truth. Which I and many others have seen come to pass and fulfilled.  
For Christ said to his Disciples, That the False-Prophets and the Antichrists( which were inwardly the Ravened Wolves, which the Apostles and Believers should beware of) should come to them, to try them, and had the Sheeps clothing and Outward Profession of Christianity, but Inwardly Ravening Wolves to devour them. Now, these were Inwardly Ravening from something. And the Apostle John speaks of such as went out from us: It seems, they were once among them, But( saith he) they were not of us, for if they had been of us, they would no doubt have continued with us; but they went out from the true Church, that they might be manifest that they were not all of it. And these were the Antichrists and False-Prophets, that Christ said, should come, which John and the Apostles saw were come, and exhorted the Church to beware of, and to keep to the Unction, which they had from the Holy One. And this Unction and Anointing, as it abides within the Saints, the true Church, it will teach them all things, and is Tr●th; and by it they shall continue in the Son and the Father, and so in the Holy Seed, Rock and Foundation, that cannot be shaken.  
And the Apostle saith, There were to be a falling away first, before the Man of Sin was revealed; the Son of Perdition, who opposeth and exalteth himself, &c. And then the Apostle saw the Mystery of Iniquity already work; and his coming is after the working of Satan, with all Deceivableness and Unrighteousness in them that Perish, because they receive not the love of the Truth, that they might be saved. And such go into strong Delusions, that they should believe a lye, and not the Truth. And here you may see there is a falling away, before the Son of Perdition or Judas be revealed; and they that fall away, receive not the love of the Truth, that they might be Saved; but believe Lies that they should be Damned. And the Lord will consume him with the Spirit of his Mouth, and will destroy with the brightness of his coming, the Wicked One and Son of Perdition, that is against the Righteous, and is the Opposer and Betrayer of them.  
Therefore all the Church of Christ are to stand steadfast, and be established in him in every good word & work, who are from the beginning chosen for Salvation through Jesus Christ, & through the Sanctification of the Spirit, and the belief of the Truth, and are called by the Gospel, the Power of God, to the obtaining of the Glory of the Lord Jesus Christ, in whom the glorious rest and peace is.  
And you may see, how the Church of Christ was troubled by such as went out from them, and fell away from Truth, and Inwardly ravened; some went like unto the Sw●ne in the Mire; and some like the Doggs to the Vomit; and some like Wolves, that Inwardly Ravened, and yet kept the sheeps-clothing: Some went in the nature of Cain, Sacrificers, and yet Destroyers of the Righteous; and some went in the Nature or Spirit of Jannes and Jambres, that withstood Moses; and others in the Nature of Judas to Betray; and others in the Nature of Corah, Dathan, and Abiram, to Gainsay and Resist the Truth; and others in the Nature of Jezabel.  
And this Spirit and Nature troubled the Church in the Old Testament, and troubled the Church in the New Testament, and are troubling the Church of Christ in this Gospel-day, that is come and coming out of the apostasy. But God's Trumpet, Spirit and Power was and is always sounded against it, that all People may beware of this Evil Spirit and Nature, and keep in the Seed Christ Jesus, that bruises the head of it, in whom you have Love, Rest, Salvation, Quietness and Peace, Hallelujah.  
And all dwell in Love, then you dwell in God, who is Love; let that be all your Habitations, which Love edifies the Body of Christ, and build you up in him, and all strive to excel one another in virtue, in Patience, Courteousness, Kindness, Tenderness, Meekness, and Humility, in Temperance, Modesty and Chastity; and whatsoever things are Descent and Comely, and of good Report, Honest and Lovely, that follow; for these are the good Fruits of the Spirit of God, and his Heavenly Seed; which Fruits are acceptable to God, and will make you all lovely and comely to him, and unto one another in his Heavenly Seed, in which( as I said before) you are blessed, and all Nations are blessed; which Seed Christ is your Sanctuary, who destroys the Devil the Destroyer, and so is over him, and was before he was, in whom the true Believers live, and have Peace, who clothes them with Salvation, and with his Righteousness, the Sanctified's fine linen.  
So all walk worthy of the Mercys of God and his Blessings from Above, and from Below, to the Glory and Praise of God.  
Dolston, the 13th of the 10th Month, 1683. G. F.  
This you may red amongst the Children of the Light and of the Day.  And they that dwell not in Love and Charity, are like the Sounding Brass, and Tinkling Cymbals; as you may red 1 Cor. 13.1, 8.
