A few words in brief : for the worldly teachers and worshippers to consider of, who think that God heareth sinners; and though they alwayes erre in their hearts, that they shal be saved. For the awakening of such, I shall shew them, with the light, as it is noted in the Scriptures of truth, that God heareth not sinners; neither shall they that alwayes err in their hearts from God's wayes, enter into God's rest; the Lord hath sworn it: and this was finished from the foundation of the world. And also, what that light is in men, that every man is lighted withal, from the writing of prophets, philosophers, and modern teachers: and how men have pitched besides the Eben-ezer, or stone of help.

But more particularly thus: the devil (who was a murderer and a liar from the beginning, and the original of all sin) is the father of all persecutors and persecution, which is the birth born after the flesh, ... Christ Jesus, the truth, the peace, the power of God (which destroyes the devil, the original of all sin and unrighteousness) he is the original and everlasting father of all the righteous, which the birth born after the spirit: whose mother is Jerusalem from above, which is free with her children, who are the righteous (which are persecuted) who will not persecute nor hate but love enemies. ...
