I. Now none can be saved from the Wrath of the Lord but they who are saved from their Sins; for Sin brings the Wrath of God upon the Consciences of men, and Anguish upon Soul and Body; and who are not saved from Sin, cannot be saved from Wrath; for Wrath pursues the Guilty, and he that doth evil, sin lies at his door, and continual anguish upon his spirit because of sin, and the load and burden of the body of death oppresseth his soul, and anger from God kindleth in his breast, because he hath sinned; and he knows he is guilty of Transgression, and the Lord wounds him in his Conscience, and no man in that state can speak peace unto him, nor can any save him from the Wrath of God, because he is not saved from his Sin, nor from the guilt of it; but his grief and burden is, because he hath sinned against the Light in his own Conscience: And therefore whosoever will be saved from Wrath must be saved from Sin and Christ, must purifie his heart, and the Blood of the Lamb must sanctifie him, and his Conscience must be cleansed from the guilt of Transgression, and Christ must live in him, and he must live the life of Faith, which gives victory over all Sin, or else he cannot be saved with the Salvation of God eternally.
II. Again, Whosoever will be saved with the Salvation of God, must own the Light of Christ Jesus in his own Conscience, and he must believe in this Light and walk in it, even the Light in his Conscience, that convinces him, and checks him for his evil deeds, and that lets him see what sin he is guilty of; you must believe in this Light, and follow it, and depart from that, and forsake that Iniquity which it convinces you of, and do that Good which it moves your hearts unto, or else you can never be saved; for if you continue in evil-doing, contrary to the Light of Christ in your own Consciences, you are in a condemned condition, and you cannot be justified of the Lord, while you are accused by the Light within you, of such and such sins, and that you are guilty of them, and forsakes them not; for the God of Heaven condemneth and justifieth men according to the Witness of the Light in their own Consciences; for it is Gods Evidence, to bear witness for God, and to accuse or excuse every man in his sight, and according to its evidence, God justifieth or condemneth all the children of men.
III. Again, whosoever will be saved, must be born again of the Seed of God, and must be changed and renewed in mind and heart, and spirit; and old things must pass away, and all things must be made new; and a new nature must live in you, and the Image of God must be brought forth, which is in Righteousness and true Holiness, which is like unto God; and this is the new Creation, which every one must witness to be wrought in them that ever enters into Gods Kingdom; For saith Christ, Except a man be born again he cannot enter into the Kingdom of God; for it is not a profession of Religion made with the lips, nor the practises of Duties and Ordinances, taken on and performed in the old nature, and a holding of truth in unrighteousness; this is not the way of Salvation, but it is the regenerating and making like unto God, being his Image of Justice, Truth and Righteousness; it is this in which men may be saved everlastingly.
IV. Again, Whosoever will be saved, must receive the Spirit of God, and it must dwell in them, even the Spirit of the Father; and they must be taught by it, and led into all Truth, to do the Truth, and speak the Truth in all things; even the Spirit of Truth must be received, to teach and to lead in all the wayes of God; it alone must teach; and all the Hireling Teachers of the world must be turned away from, by whom peoples souls have been deceived; all such as have run, and God never sent them; that have cryed up Teaching and Ministry, and through whom people have not received the Spirit of the Father; all such Teachers must be denyed, their Church and Ministry; and the Spirit of the Father must only teach and lead; and you must walk in the Spirit, and not after the Flesh; for if you walk after the Flesh, in the wayes and works of it, you are in the state of Condemnation, and not of Salvation; and the Spirit of God doth not teach you, but you are out of the New Covenant of God; in which Covenant all are taught of the Lord, and in Righteousness are they established: the Spirit of God is put within them, and the Law of God is written in their hearts; and they need no man to teach them, but as the Spirit teacheth: and this is the New Covenant of Peace with God, into which all must come to witness this, or else they cannot be saved.
V. Again, All that will be saved, must be sanctified, cleansed and purified from all unrighteousness, by the Spirit and Word of God, whereby every heart must be made clean, and every conscience sprinkled with the Blood of the Lamb; and the body of Sin and Death must be put off, and the bondage of Corruption must be broken, and Iniquity must be forsaken, and turned from, and Sin must be judged in the flesh, and Purity, Holiness and Righteousness must live and reign in all that will be saved; and Sin and Transgression, and the guilt of it must be removed; and you must shew forth the Image of God in Holiness and Righteousness; and must be pure, as he is pure, in kind and quality; and you must walk in Holiness and Righteousness, being freed from Corruption, and from the wayes of Sin and Death, being sanctified in Body, Mind and Spirit, by the Word of the Lord; and Sin must be blotted out, and Transgression must be covered, and Iniquity must be remembred no more, and in all things you must cease to do evil, and learn to do well, if ever you will be saved.
VI. Again, Whosoever will be saved, must witness Christ revealed in you, and He must live in you, and you must be followers of him whithersoever he goes, and your Bodies must be the Temples of the living God, and God must walk in you and dwell in you, according to his promise; and he must be your King, your Judge and Law-giver, your Teacher, Father and Master, and he must be all in all unto you, even God the Father who is blessed for ever; you must know him near you, and feel his presence in you, to be your joy, life and peace; and you must have fellowship with him in Spirit, and must worship him in Spirit, and by the Spirit, without respect of Dayes, Times or Places: Every one that will be saved must come into this, and witness it, for this is the way of the Salvation of God.
VII. Again, Whosoever will be saved, must live in the power of Godliness, and must deny all Forms of Religion without the Power; all Profession of Scriptures, Ordinances, Churchmember-ship, Praying and Preaching, which is not in the Power of God, and by his Spirit, must be denyed, and that part that holds it, (that holds the Form of Godliness without the Power) must be crucified; and every one must come into the Power of the Spirit of God, and must witness that to work in them, to will and to do; and no more professing of the things of God, but as they are witnessed by the work of his Spirit in their hearts: you must not hold Truth any longer in unrighteousness, nor make a profession of it in your unrighteous minds; no more talking of Justification and Redemption, nor of any of the matters of Gods Kingdom, but according as they are witnessed by the working of the Spirit of God in the heart; and every one must feel in himself the evidence and testimony of the Spirit of God to witness the Truth in his heart (or conscience) of what he professeth with his mouth.
VIII. Again, Whosoever will be saved, must witness the Scriptures of Truth fulfilled in themselves: the things that they have read of without them, must be wrought within them, wrought in their hearts by the same Spirit as gave forth the Scriptures; they must passe through the same conditions as the holy men of God did; and the same truth that the Scriptures declare of, must be revealed in the heart, by the same Spirit that gave forth the Scriptures; and none must profess more than they do enjoy from God; and all flesh must be silent from speaking of the things of Gods Kingdom, which they have not seen, handled, tasted and felt, by the working of the Spirit of God in their Consciences: and this is to witness the Scriptures fulfilled, when you have experience of the same conditions, and of the same operations and manifestations which the Servants of the Lord passed through and had experience of; and so that you may speak what you have heard, and seen, and handled, and tasted of the Word of Life: All that will be saved must come to this, and witness it.
IX. Again, Whosoever will be saved, must believe in Jesus Christ, and receive him; and they must take up his daily cross and follow him; and must know him to mortifie and crucifie them to the world: and he must work the same things in you by his Spirit spiritually, as he wrought without you in his Person, or else you have no part in him, nor salvation by him: For it is not enough unto eternal life, only to believe that there was such a one as a Christ, and that he did and spoke such and such things at a distance without you; for many may make a belief and a profession of this, and yet perish; but Him that was, of whom you read, without you, must you receive, and witness within you; and you must know Him as he was before Abraham was, and before the world was; and He himself by his Spirit in you must give you the knowledge of Himself, what He was before the beginning, what he is now, and what he shall for ever be.
X. Again, Every one that will be saved, must come up out of the Apostacy into which all Christendom hath been fallen, and must come into the same Spirit, Life and Power as the Apostles were in; from which Life, Spirit and Power, all Christendom have been Apostates, and they have held the words and practices of the Apostles without the same Life and Power, and made Sects, Churches and Ministers, but out of the same Life and Spirit as the holy men of God were in; and all that will be saved must be restored and recovered into the same Spirit and Life in their Churches, Ministry and Ordinances, as the Apostles of Christ Jesus were in: and this is Restoration, when People come again into the same Life and Spirit of God, which the Apostate Christians have all wanted, and been in the Form of Ministry, Churches, Religion and Godliness, without the Power; And unto this is the Lord God restoring People, his Day is dawned, and his everlasting Light is risen, and his Name will be known in the Earth: And none can be saved with the salvation of God, but who believe, receive and understand these things.
