For certainly God, who is the King of
Righteousness, is not a God of words only, but of deeds; for it is
the badge of hypocrisy for man to say and not to do. Therefore we
leave this with you all, having peace in our hearts by declaring
faithfully to you this Light that is in us, and which we do not
only speak and write, but which we do easily act and practice.
"Likewise we write it as a letter of congratulation and
encouragement to our dear Fellow Englishmen that have begun to dig
upon the Commons, thereby taking possession of their Freedom, in
Wellinborow in Northamptonshire, and at Cox Hall in Kent, waiting
to see the chains of slavish fear to break and fall off from the
hearts of others in other countries till at last the whole Land is
filled with the knowledge and righteousness of the Restoring Power,
which is Christ Himself, Abraham's seed, who will spread Himself
till He become the joy of all Nations.
