March 19. 1678. The Old Leaven.

This Word much followed me this Morning, being again often repeated, Let no Leaven be found in your Habitations.

March 2. 1678. The Blood under the Altar.

My Internal Senses were still more opened and made attractive, drawing down Eternal Powers for guardian Might and Defence, against the Bryer-twisting Nature of Sin; Which we have been warned of so often by the Spirit of Wisdom, because the Spirit of our Lord doth know, he cannot make our way to the ...

March 20. 1678. An Alarm in the Night.

In the Night in a deep Sleep, I saw a Place, as a Tower for strength enclosed, and within it a Garden very richly replenished with Flowers and Plants of all sorts.

March 23. 1678. The Unknown Warfare.

The many Vicissitudes attending from the Worldly-Spirit, striving and thronging for the laying of somewhat of offence still in our Garden-Walks, where only we should be enteretained with Heaven's-Gales, blowing up the Odoriferous Sweets. But unsavory Weeds yet are permitted to spring, and to give fo... Read More

March 25. 1678. The Living Statues. A Vision.

Oh how great an Aversion is it to a Mind, that great and bigned is according to an Eternal Birth-Degree, to bow, and stoop, and to be humbled under things transitory. When once it comes to calculate its high Spiritual Nativity, thereby to understand what it is born unto, in reference to that which i... Read More

March 29. 1678. The Parable of a Mill. In Vision.

The World that visited me this Morning was this, When thou to God thy Father dost Pray, Watch, and Weigh all Worlds thou dost say.

March 5. 1678. The Altar of the Third Degree

This Word spake in me, Erect a pure Altar of the Third Degree unto your God, that therefrom your Oblations may be of force, which hath been hitherto too weak.

May 10. 1678. The Key of the Properties of Eternal Nature.

Being waiting this Morning in my Spirit, for some fresh Discovery, and Visitation, all being quiet and still within.

May 12. 1678. The Mountain-Seal.

This world I had further given me in upon these Properties. A great Mountain of Earth does yet lie upon them, and before them, therefore it is impossible for it to dissolve away. Grudge not therefore thy time here wholly to spend, and fixedly here stand, imploring and calling upon Great Jehovah, (fr... Read More

May 15. 1678. The Interpretation.

The Vision of the Key, which openeth the seven Properties of Eternal Nature, as to me explained, from the spring of Wisdom, and Fountain of understanding.

May 19. 1678. On the same subject

This Word was spoken in me, saying, If ye can fast with me from Mortal things: then will be given you to eat that, which will supply all of Eternal Nature's Properties, for which your Spirit is so perplexed to find them out. But for this, give place to the Fire-Engin, that may display its bright Ray... Read More

May 20. 1678. The Deifying Properties of Eternal Nature.

This Word came with a fiery Breath unto me. The most high and perfect Rule is set before thee, but now it must so enkindle in thee, as to beget and bring forth the Deifying Properties: Otherwise Light and Revelation hath not its End answered. Having heard, and learned the way and Model for the accom... Read More

May 21. 1678. The Sea of Eternal Nature.

As I was waiting, I met with this Word from my Lord and God, Who ceaseth not to give Counsel unto us, to avoid the Snares, that every way do lie, while we are waiting in this Corrupt Air. The Word thus spake. O great Soul, and Mind, beware of Worldly soil: keep the inward part all refined; that God ... Read More

May 29. 1678. The Angelical Womb.

In the Morning-Watch my Spirit was called upon to hear, and attend, for what was yet further to be known, in order to the deliverance from the Polluted State, of the Natural Birth. I was shewn how greatly it did derogate from God's Creation, as Adam in his first Figure, and the Angels in theirs. I s... Read More

May 8. 1678. A Call to the Mount of Divine Vision.

A Call there is to the Exiled to return into the secret Pavilion, where God only does appear, and does declare his living Testimony. For who else can have freedom of conversation from this high Sphear, with the perfect One. To which height of Dignity, some out of this gross Earth called out may be, ... Read More

Whose Spirit as a Sign hereof... Read More

November 12. 1678. A Call into the Vineyard.

This Morning it was first spoke to me, Consider that this is no time to stand Idle in the Market-Place.

November 13. 1678. The Angelical Key.

AS the Spiritual Exercise of my Mind was consulting upon the now approaching Day of God, which will be so terrible to Flesh. I cryed O my Lord, who shall live in this Day, when thou shalt contend with all Nations, and pour out Indignation? What can secure these Bodies at such a time, that are Obnoxi... Read More

November 14. 1678. The Line of the Spirit.

A Deep fathoming Line was presented unto me, that was as a round bottom wound up, only some part of it was unwound towards me. It was twisted with various Colours, White, Purple and Red. And the Word that given was, Follow this Line as it doth unwind, and it will lead through all Worlds, which are n... Read More

November 20. 1678. The Soveraignty of the Will.

I Was in the Ejaculations of an inspired Mind, proposing to my God and Father, somewhat that might free my outward Life from all kinds of Servility.
