You who learn Christ outside the Spirit, hold up an image of Christ in your earthly mind, as did the Jews & their rulers concerning the Messiah; by whom He was persecuted, and put to death. For it must needs be that the Scriptures be fulfilled, and now upon those who partake in His sufferings. Woe unto the world because of offences! for it must needs be that offences come; but woe to that man by whom the offence cometh! Matthew 18:7. Know therefore the brutish of your vain knowledge, which have not so learned Christ in the Spirit, and so judge after the flesh, but know nothing of His in you, nor seen His shape, or image form in you, that you might fear the holy God of Life, and Power, and cease your hard words, which you ungodly sinners speak against Him, and bring them up with your lofty minds, speaking evil of those things which you know not in yourselves, who would not have Christ reign over you. Woe to you! who are in Cains nature, and gainsaying as Core, who have not so learned Christ within, but clothe over your beasty nature with a likeness of Christ, which you have fashioned for yourselves, like yourselves, and so think God to be like yourselves, and therefore judge others from your cursed ground who are clothed by the Spirit, and not by the Whore, which covers herself over in you with a fallen love, a fallen joy, a fallen humility, a fallen righteousness, &c. through a fallen wisdom working deceitfully: professing yourselves to be wise, you became fools, and fat hearted; you are up in yourselves stomping under foot the Son of God. Oh cast off your filthy rags, and wretched wares, you filthy hypocrites! come down from your high chamber, and your high seat, whereon you blaspheme the name of God, and put Christ at your footstool! dwell in the dust; put on sackcloth; Tremble, Tremble! for nakedness, you great houses of laughter, that maybe you be built up in the Spirit with that house which is from heaven; or take your portion with the hypocrites, with all the woes pronounced against you!
THE DAY IS EXPIRING! THE LIGHT IS GOING DOWN! CEASE YOUR STRIVING IN THE FEAR OF THE LORD, AND REPENT! COME DOWN IN YOUR SELVES TO THAT WHICH YOU TRAMPLE UPON IN YOUR WANTONNESS, YOU LUSTFUL-ONES- LEST YOU BE BLOTTED OUT OF HEAVEN, AND SHUT-UP IN THE DARK AS THE DAY OF LONG-SUFFERING PASSES YOU BY AT LAST, AND THE CANDLE OF THE LORD IS PUT OUT IN YOU, WHO FILL YOURSELVES WITH ALL UNRIGHTEOUSNESS, AS THE LEAVEN OF A DARK KINGDOM WAGING WAR AGAINST THE TRUTH, WHO IS KEPT DOWN WITH YOUR DECEIT, AND COVERED OVER BY THE FALSE PROPHET IN YOU, AS THE TRUTH MAKES MAKES MANIFEST WHAT YOU ARE, AND ALL YOUR UNGODLINESS & WORLDLY LUSTS, THAT YOU MIGHT TURN AT HIS REPROOF FROM THAT DARKNESS TO THE LIGHT, FROM THE POWER OF SATAN TO GOD, THAT YOU MIGHT RECEIVE POWER TO BECOME HIS SONS, WHICH POWER DESTROYS THE WORKS OF THE DEVIL, AND PUTS AN END TO SIN.
