pure Reason, and God's Nature divine Faith. And there was no impure Thing in his Sight; only he created one Angel more glorious than the reft. After this, the glorious Wisdom of God moved him to create this mortal vifible World of Earth and Water, which were eternal Substances, but dark, dead, and fenfelefs: And of this visible mortal Earth, the glorious wife God created Adam and Eve in his own Image, and breathed into them the Breath of Life: That Breath of the ever-living God made their Souls Spiritual and immortal, and would have fo continued: But now behold, what the Wisdom of God moved him to: He first tries what his Creature, that Holy Angel would do, or what would become of him if he did withdraw his Revelation from him, and leave him to himself: Not that God had eternally decreed this, but as his glorious Wisdom moved him to this or that: For if God knew what was past, present, and to come, there was an End of his Wifdom, and fo would not be infinite; but this makes him infinite, that his Wifdom is eternally increafing. Now, when God did withhold his Revelation from this glorious Angel, his pure Reafon in Creation became impure, and afpired to be above the Creator; which when God faw and knew, thofe vilifying Thoughts that continually sprang in him, he caft him down from Heaven, like Lightning. From that very Moment Good and Evil was visible in this Creation; which was the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil, which stood before Adam and Eve. Here Sin entered into the World Therefore the glorious God having found, by the Trial of his firft Creature, how it became with him, his Wisdom faw it good to leave Man of his own Nature to himfelf: Only he firft gave Man aLaw, that if he hearkened to the Subtilty of that reprobate fallen fpiritual glorious Angel, by eating or believing in him, he should die the Death; that is, that immortal Soul he were created in, while he ftood in Obedience to God, could not fall: But he should by Difobedience become mortal; Now the Subtilty of this glorious Ange

was

was too powerful for Eve (Adam was not in the leaft concern'd in Eve's Temptation) but being overcome by the Serpent Angel, he having Power, prefently enters her Womb: For the Nature of 1piritual Bodies can tranfmute itself into as fmall a Place as it pleafeth: And this Angel pollutes her, makes her defil'd, fills her pure innocent Soul with luftful Thoughts and Defires towards her Hufband: There this immortal reprobate Angel lays down his Immortality, in becoming Seed; and had, or could Eve have lived without the Embraces of her Husband, fhe would in her appointed Time brought forth Cain the Offspring, and only begotten Son of that reprobate_Angel, the Father of all the Devils in the World: But the could not forbear, but tempt poor innocent Adam, who is overcome by hearkening to Eve's Words, and fo becomes polluted too; then at that very Time Death enter'd into the World, and not before. Now, as concerning Hell, God comes and fays, I will put Enmity between the two Seeds, the Seed of the Woman, and the Seed of the Serpent. There was in Cain Part of the Woman's Seed (which was God's Nature) as well as the Serpent's: Likewife in Abel there was two Seeds: But here lies theDifference; in Cain the Seed of his Father the reprobate Angel was predominate, and Lord over that Spark of the Seed of the Woman; whereas in Abel, whom Adam begot, though both Seeds were in him, yet the Seed of Faith being God's divine Nature, was predominate, and did fo captivate the Seed of Reafon in him, that his Sacrifice was acceptable before God, when Cain's was refus'd, which made him flay his Brother Abel. Now, mark the Seed of Reafon, which is the Seed of the Serpent, or the reprobate Angel, or the Devil, fhould bruife the Heel of the Seed of the Woman, or the Seed of Faith: But the Seed of the Woman hall break the Serpent's Head. Now when the glorious God did fulfil his Promise, and faw it moft fit to transmute his glorious Immortality into a mortal human Condition of Flesh, Blood, and Bone;

by

by entering into the Virgin's Womb, who in Time shedding his most precious Blood, hath overcome Sin, Death, and Hell; which Hell, as yet, hath no Being: Although the Heaven of Glory, which will be the Reward of the Elect Seed, be in Being, and ever was: Yet the Place of Torment will appear but in Time, when God will call all to Judgment.
