First Property.
The First was a circling Cloud of Light, from whence uncessant Revelation would spring, and open what was never known before, concerning the invisible Scenes of Glory, to which the mortal Man hath been altogether a stranger, not having understood his original Royalty. But where Christ, the central Light, is entred into the Soul’s Essence, there everlasting Light doth break, which shews invisible things in their first pure Ground, where the Eternal Fire-Soul moves strong to come out of an impotent weak Life, that hath been shut up in this vile Body of Sin; the Light of Revelation making it restless any longer to abide therein, and so it is made to pursue another Beginning from a new-rising Spring, flowing from the God-head, that affords strength for a Co-deified Operation, which may give a living Testimony, that a new Spring is appearing out of an old Tree, whose Sap is renewed to bring forth the second Property of the Holy Ghost, as another Fruit bearing Branch.
Second Property.
Which Branch is put forth from the All-compassing Element, wherein the Soul is baptized, as in a Cloud of Fire; whoever they be that come to know This, need no greater Witness, as to their own particular; for they know their dwelling is the very Center-Heart of God, they are fed and cherished with the Blood of Life, and Oily Lamp, that makes all the Body within to be as a burning Cherubim, that at times and season can mount and fly into the very Heavens: Though this be yet a mystical and dark Speech, and little experienced, yet know, the time of Elijah is nigh, and a Whirl-wind is descending from the Alpha and Omega, to take up the slain Witnesses, who have been in the World so undervalued. The Ascension-Gate by this bright Key is unlocked, to go in after him, who was translated from among Men, so as not to be yet hid in the Mystery: And thus shall it be again, tho’ in another Form and Model; for these Elijah-Prophets, though they shall be redeemed from every thing which is of the degenerate Nature, yet in this shall differ from Elijah: for whereas he was taken up, and seen no more among Men, these in their visible Persons shall remain on the Earth, and every where carry along with them their encompassing Charriots of Fire, which shall be discoverable to none but the Ministring Elijah’s, that will not cease to follow fully, where the Life-Witness doth remain after this sort and kind.
Third Property.
The Third out-flowing Property of the Holy Ghost, which ushers in Christ’s Reign, is this, that a simplified naked Soul, coming forth from the baptizing Cloud, puts on a Cloathing of impregnable defence and power, viz. a meer Magical Body, such as the Lord Christ had after his Resurrection, consisting of the One pure Element, which can swallow up the visible gross substance of Flesh, that it may no longer be an Impediment to the Soul’s running its Race: Indeed such a Body is very suitable for the great things that are to be wrought by the Christed Kings on Earth; for if provision of such a Body were not made by Christ, it would be in vain for him to go about to settle his Kingdom, where the Beast and Dragon have had their Dominion so long, and who will not now be dethroned upon a slight account: They will hold their Propriety in the outward Husk of the Body, when they can find no place for themselves in the Soul: Therefore the Lord hath revealed, That he will turn the very Body into its Paradisical Property again, that the dark Prince and his Agents may not be able to overthrow the Lord’s personal Reign in his Saints; who would desire no fairer Mark to shoot their Arrows at, than a frail mortal Body of Flesh. Wherefore the Lord hath said, That he will raise a firm Tabernacle, which no earthly Weapon shall be able to pierce, which will be a fit Garment to last out the thousand Years: Let the Just and Holy believe this, and see all this finished first, in the Kingdom that is within the Soul’s Essence, and then such may conclude that they shall assume a visible Power and Right to reign with Christ, over all Kingdoms of this World in Magical Might.
Fourth Property.
The Fourth out going Power of the Holy Ghost, sets the Soul free in the Eternal liberty, from all Conflicts which the Dragon, or the starry Region hath introduced; for the Soul now is influenced by those superior Planets, to which these outward Planets are subject. The Soul and Christ are in a mutual agreement, to break away from the infectious Rays of Time and Mortality; being encompassed with that Sun that will set no more, nor with-draw; for it is the Glory of seven Days, that runs its Circle without the least diminishing of its Light: and fixeth the Soul in its pure splendorious Body; when the Soul shall find it self in another form of Life, and seated as a high Principality before Jehovah’s Throne, attending there to know the Counsel and Decrees of the Soveraign Majesty, under whom is managed all inferior Government, which shall be committed to those who reign with Christ the Lord: Oh! this will be a wonderful time indeed! For while the Lord is opening these things to me, I am as one sunk into the Abyssal Ground, where I am as nothing, till he put forth a piercing Ray from his flaming Eye, to fetch my Spirit up again; who thus spake unto me, Stand thou up, and hear and declare the new Model of my Reign, and let it be published; for it is time to awaken those who are ordained for the first Resurrection, that they may no longer sleep in the Day-break of my Appearance: And do thou solemnly set thy Heart to the great Immunities that are revealed, not only for speculation, but for fulfilling, where great Earnestness shall be found.
Thus the Holy One set home his Word, and causeth it to pass through a Vessel that is nothing to be accounted of, whereat my self stands amazed, what should move the Lord thus to appear, and hold such a free Converse, and leave such weighty things in trust with me? Oh! What can be said, but that it is the Good-will and Pleasure of my Christ and King, who will change Tin and Dross into Gold, as it pleaseth him?
The Fifth Property.
The Fifth Property of the Holy Ghost is, that whereby the Soul gets free from the striving Elements, and comes to Rest and Peace, all Wars and Combates ceasing. The Soul having got up these four ascending Steps towards the Throne, can now look down like a Tower of strength, terrible to all the lower Inhabitants round about: It is a Palace compacted within it self, knowing nothing but a serene Peace and Concord; neither Dragon nor Beast do so much as attempt to come here, for Love and Peace is their Hell and Torment. Christ’s prersonal Reign in his Saints consists of Peace, Power, Love & Joy; the Holy Ghost moveth in the mild and meek Property from the Water of Life, that captivates the Enmity and Strife, and shuts up the dark Center with all its Spirits: This carries a two-fold meaning, for first it is to be understood of that Love and Peace which possesseth the whole inward Hemisphere of the Soul; and in the next place of the same Love flowing forth and diffusing it self through all the Subjects of that peaceful Kingdom, which Christ will establish in the high Angelical Harmony of Love.
Sixth Property of the Soul.
The Sixth out-flowing Property, is the Omnipotence of God, exerted in the renewed part, in an absolute and Almighty Dominion, that admits of no controul. Here is no need of going out to borrow Gifts or Powers, which are now fixed in the Soul to manifest the Wonders of the Magia, which hath been shut up in Wisdom’s Principle, whose Virgins Crown of Power is sent down as a signal Testimony of the Kingly Reign that must prevail over all the Earth. The bright flaming Standard of Christ’s Personality will be of that Magnificence, as to draw home the dispersed and scattered Flock, which hath suffered Violence in this Babylonish Kingdom: A Jubile will be proclaimed by them, to whom this Dominion shall first come. They, the Head-Kings and Leaders are appointed to shine forth as Stars, that shall bear such sway in God’s Omnipotency, as shall make all the Elect to haste and fly to this Kingdom, as Doves to the Windows, where all occasions of complaint about the Necessities of Life shall be cut off: because Wisdom’s Store-house shall from the Inherent Omnipotency, abundantly supply whatsoever is needful of this kind. The Paradisical lost Power shall be restored in a higher degree than ever, to the end that Self-Love and Propriety may be taken away, which cannot enter into Christ’s Kingdom; for the Lord hath averred, That none who are thus Spirited shall ever his Kingdom inherit. The vast and inexhaustible Treasure of Divine Riches cannot be enjoyed in Propriety, but only in Love’s Communion.
Seventh Property.
The Seventh and last Property of the Holy Ghost, that gives witness to Christ’s Reign, doth consist in a Life of Praise and Exaltation, which goeth forth in the Angelical Tongues, Powers and Sounds of so many perfumed Offerings, paying an everlasting Love-Tribute of Joy to the Antient of Days; by and in whom they are come to reign over all Kingdoms in this World, in Christ’s personal Power: The New Hallelujahs from the Fire-breath of the Holy Ghost shall be the Holy Sport and Coelestial Play of the Children of this Kingdom: All their Works shall speak forth the Praises of the most High; for Wisdom’s Spirit will act so high, and in such a mysterious manner, as hitherto hath not been known. All which miraculous Powers have been reserved to make up the Glory of Christ’s second coming in his Representatives here on Earth. For if the Lord should not in this manner demonstrate his God-head-Power in his Saints, they would be set very light by, and it would be a vain thing to assume the Title and Name of Kings without Anointing Power suitable to it. No Dominion, whether inward or outward, can be maintained without Loves-Omnipotency. And truly, my Lord hath assured me, that he hath made large and full Provision for this Day, who upon some private Objections of my own, said to me, Be thou nothing doubtful concerning all the great Things of my Kingdom, which have been open’d to thee from the Center of Light; they have been revealed for a ground of Faith: The Hand of the Dyal is moving towards the fixed Hour, which will manifest all these working Powers of the Holy Ghost: Wherefore do not streighten thy self, nor any to whom this Word shall come, but run out in a spacious large Belief, answerable to Loves-Power, and the ability of the Object, to whom the Eye of Faith is directed: For wonderful things are upon the Wheel, by which you may know it is high time to put forth your Hands to raise and awaken that which hath been so long asleep. This was the concluding Word of Counsel from the Lord.
