a salve to cure the blind? only to shew you I work by instruments; and now by instruments I shall work; and as the hand-writing appeared against Belshazzar, so shall the hand-writing of men appear against the devil; and by their hand-writing he shall fall; for if I find but fifty righteous men to sign their names, I will destroy Satan for the fifty's sake, and all the others shall be cut off; for no man shall save his life, that will not sign his name for Satan's death. For if they said of ME, "Crucify him! crucify him! and I was crucified by man; so now let them say the same of Satan, and he shall be crucified also; that meaneth, his power shall be cut off from the face of the earth. Now I shall come to thee: he saith, thou art not found in Holy Writ; then let him explain the 2d chapter of Joel -12th chapter of Revelation, the 19th, and the last-54th chapter of Isaiah: and what my Apostle meant, when he said, "when the fulness of time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law, to redeem those that were under the law." What fulness will he prove there was when I came in the body, in the form of a man, and sin and iniquity has abounded ever since? The Jews were the only people under the law of the Lord; for I said you only have I known, of all the families on the earth; and they are still under the law, and not redeemed; but how shall I call them from all nations, where I have scattered them, if the Spirit of Prophecy is not given to call them by? How can I reason with man, or plead with man, without giving the Spirit of Prophecy to plead by? How can I cry out like a travailing woman, if a travailing woman never ery out in my name? Shall I cry out like a woman with child, when she is near to be delivered? in that language shall I cry out to the nations? O simple and unwise! read your Bibles, and weigh them deep; then ye will know my second coming must be in the SPIRIT when few believe it; for it is written, "They

shall crucify the Lord afresh, and put him again to open shame," and this they are doing daily. Let. it be known unto all men, I am come already in the Spirit, and I have scarce found faith on the earth for in a day they little thought of I visited thee; and in a day little thought of I will come in majesty and great glory; but as I first went through. MY OFFICE, and then expired on the cross, so will. I now go through MY OFFICE in the SPIRIT, and. bring the cross on Satan, and on every man that preserves the beast; for that is rebellion, like the sin of witchcraft; for Satan must bewitch men's minds, or they would all be glad to sign it. Can the Lord be offended to hear you sing the song of Moses and the Lamb? that as MOSES destroyed the temporal Pharaoh, so CHRIST will destroy the Pharaoh which is the devil." Here I shall break off. COMMUNICATIONS, Tuesday, 12th October, 1802. Joanna was ordered to open her Bible, and write the first verse she opened to; which was

PSALM, lxix. 6. Let not them that seek thee be confounded, for my sake, O God of Israel." 7. "Because for thy sake I have borne reproach: shame hath covered my face."

8. "I am become a stranger unto my brethren, and an alien fronr my mother's children." "Now I shall answer thee. This is thy prayer for thy friends, and this is thy petition for them, that they may not be ashamed for thy sake. I know the reproach thou hast borne for ME, and what thou hast suffered for my sake; I know thou art become a stranger to thy brethren, and alienated from thy mother's children; but thy throne will I now establish; thy goings forth shall be as the morning; and thy truth be as clear as the noon-day sun.Now open thy Bible again and I will answer." EZEKIEL, xiv. 16. But the Land shall be desolate."

PSALM, cxl. 2. "Their hearts continually are gathering together for war."

"Now I will answer thee. The Land shall be desolate, where I told thee of desolation; for they are preparing daily for war, and all the threatenings pronounced in that chapter shall now come upon them.* If Noah, Daniel, and Job, be in it, they shall save none but their own lives; for I will ut terly destroy them, and make a full end of them; and I will give their land to them that seek ME, and think upon my covenant, that I made to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob: for now I will be known of all the families upon the earth."

ISAIAH, ii. 2. "And it shall come to pass in the last days, that the mountain of the Lord's house shall be established in the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills, and all nations shall flow unto it."

vi. 3. "And one cried unto another and said, Holy! Holy! Holy! is the Lord of hosts; for the whole earth is full of his Glory."

ix. 6. "For unto us a CHILD is born; unto us a SON is given; and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor; the mighty God, the everlasting Father, the Prince of Peace; of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end; upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom to order it, and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth, even for ever: the zeal of the Lord of hosts will perform this."

xi. 9. "They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain: for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the Lord as the waters cover the sea; and it shall come to pass in that day, that the Lord shall set his hand a second time to recover the remnant of his people.">

xii. 5. "Sing unto the Lord, for he hath done excellent things; this is known in all the Earth.” "Now I shall begin to answer thee. These things I spoke by my prophet; and now I will do it; but

The Turks.

when was it done? Thou answerest, never. Neither was it ever done; for sin hath covered the earth, as the waters cover the sea; but the knowledge of the Lord was never yet known to man; neither was my glory known over the whole earth; neither have I established the throne of David; neither have I yet been the wonderful Counsellor, the everlasting Father, the Prince of Peace: for unto them a CHILD was born, unto them a Son was given, and the government was on my shoulders upon the Cross"Jesus of Nazareth the King of the Jews;" but when did I establish my reign? The Jews have no king nor governor, nation nor city; they are driven, as I said, into all countries, and become a prey to their enemies: My APOSTLES were destroyed; the MARTYRS burnt; and my BIBLE is now become like an old worn out coat, that is no more fit for wear: for what is not fulfilled, they judge never will: but now I will make it as a garment to men that is interwoven through, to be fulfilled throughout. For this was my knowledge when I made MAN at first, to take the Man and make him two, the MAN and WOMAN: and here I knew it would begin with the Devil and the Woman: and so he overcame the Man; by the BONE, that was taken from him, Satan made an instrument to destroy that happiness I promised him. When I came at first it was like MAN alone, and Satan attacked ME as he did the woman, but I did not avenge it on his head, as I knew I could defend myself; but left it for my second coming in the woMAN. But, as the perfect Manwas parted, to make the Woman, to complete MY FATHER'S will; so must I come in the BODY as the perfect man at first; and in the SPIRIT at my second coming, I must come made of a woman, made under the law to redeem those that were under the Law. Perfectly as theydied in Adam, perfectly so they shall be made alive in ME; for, as the Serpent, that is the Devil, overcame the Woman by arguments at first; so, let all men know, thou hast overcome him by arguments at last. And this was the

knowledge of the Lord, when he created the MAN: The Lord knew that Satan would lie as close to him as he did to the Angels in Heaven: therefore he parted the Man to make the Woman. Now, as Man fell by the Woman, he must rise by the Woman, by my power, as he fell by Satan's arts; and she must overcome the Devil as he overcame her. This must be known throughout the world, how the knowledge of GOD hath preserved Man at last for now I will preserve all Men that join with the Woman, and ascribe the glory and honour due unto my name. For however ignorant mankind be of thy disputes with the Devil, there is no man living could write or act like thee, without my being with them, to keep and direct them. Let those ignorant fools invent such a book themselves, and say it was a Dispute between the Powers of Darkness and them; and then forge the Answer of the Lord to it; and see how long they would live and reign. I tell thee they could no more do it, than they could work the miracles I worked here upon earth.

So let Jews and Gentiles stop their mouths,
Without a murmuring word;

For the whole race of Adam stand

Guilty before their Lord.

The Gentiles here do now appear,

With all their boasted pride,
Blind as the Jews did then appear-
My Bible's so applied.

When I did come, 'twas judg'd by them,
All this I should fulfil;

And then establish-David's throne,

And them with joy should fill.
There's not a promise that is made,
But they did then expect,

That Israel I should then redeem,
And give them David's seat.

The Mighty Counsellor become,

My Prophet did foretel,

The Prince of Peace-then wars must ceașe ;

But mark how wars did swell;

Invasion round their City came,

And they were forc'd to fly;

And where's the Peace that he did name ?

The Jews they still do cry.
