The increase of my Government
He said should be in PEACE;
And there's no end should be to it,
And David's throne increase.
With Judgment I should set it forth;
For so it shall be done;

And from henceforth for evermore,
The Seed it so shall come;
Even, the Seed shall ever be—
The zeal of God was so!
But now I say, look back and see
If I the things did do?
No; simple people and unwise,
These things are all to come!
I will no longer blind your eyes,
But call you back to Man;
The Woman here must first appear,
And I her Counsellor be;
And prove to you my Spirit's here,
And plainly now tell ye,

I see the Gentiles and the Jews,
How they do both appear;
For many then did hear the news,
And so my Followers were;

And now the same, a few are come
Who seek the Truth to know,

And now I'll give them David's throne ;
For what I've said I'll do!

A David's Throne must now be known,
The Keeper of the Sheep;
And so I'll now advance my own,
That do my Kingdom seek!
That is, I say, to raise you high,

As David was at first;

And you my Friends that judge Me nigh, Will find your crowns to burst.

So do not fear what Sauls are here;

For I shall raise the Throne;

As Jesse's Son did then appear,
Just so I'll raise MY OWN.

For David's Throne must now be known,

It is to raise you high;

But if I do exalt but one,

Then all the rest may lie ;

As Subjects here you may appear;

Then where is David's Throne ?

But as I did advance that Man,

Just so I'll raise my own,

That now will stand like valiant men,

Like princes in the fight;

For the Goliah he is slain

Now by a Woman's might;

But sure in ME her might must be,
Or she I know must fall;

So now I'll gain the victory,
-And bring in Peace for all;
The Heathen Nations I'll destroy,
And let my SEALED Come;
Because my friends I'll now enjoy,

And give them DAVID'S THRONE."

The ANSWER of the LORD to Page 92, where the Seal stands.

MARK, the second Star stands close to the second Psalm; and as the I is meant for JESUS and JOANNA; so is my Spirit come to thee; and as the Morning Star is a type of Man, and the Evening Star of the Woman; so now I am come as the bright and Morning Star, to reveal my coming to the Evening Star and all men shall know I will set to my seal, and fulfil all that is in thy writings and this book that is now printing. For here are the Prophets that prophesied of ME, what I was to fulfil: and now I will fulfil them; so put thy Seal to every book in print, with wax by the side of the Seal let not one go out without being sealed with wax, and all Men shall find the printed Seal

Is signed and sealed by my Command;
And both together let them stand,
And they shall find I'll now appear,
And every chapter now I'll clear,
And every word I'll now make good,
And to the Woman now allude:
For Adam said, by her he died:
Then here's an ADAM now applied,
That bids you all to live again-
Obey her voice, I'll not complain:
She says, the Serpent all must kill,
As he did bruise HER SAVIOUR'S HEEL:
And she's begun to bruise his Head,
By every Word to him she said;
And for her MASTER did contend;
And all shall find I'll stand her frienb,
So much in power like her word;

Her Friends I'll bless, and send my sword
Her every foe for to destroy;
And all her FRIENDS I'll now enjoy.

So let the Woman's Seed appear

In Hand and Heart to join with her,

And then the BRIDEGROOM they shall see-
Welcome her Friends; they welcome be↓
To see the coming of the LORD,
And Paradise again restor❜d;
As Adam was cast out that way,
The Woman's Hand, he then did say
Gave him the Fruit, and so he died;
But here's the ADAM now applied,
That bids you all turn back this way;
Mark ye the Serpent where he lay,
And say,
, you all agree to kill,
Because the Woman's blood he'd spill,
Which you confess was Part of Man;
Then how can you refuse her Hand,
As she was taken from your side?
Part of the Man must be applied,
And so you must together stand,
I tell you all, both heart and hand,
If ever you will be redeem'd,
Just like my COAT without a Seam.
For how can your Redemption come?
The Man and Woman both as ON E
Did join together in the Fall;
And so again, I tell you all,
That both together you must join,
In heart as ONE you must combine,
Before your Bliss can be complete.
MY FATHER'S words are no deceit ;
And I shall prove it in the end;
I died to be the WOMAN'S FRIEND,
My FATHER'S promise to fulfil-
I said I'd come to do HIS WILL."

An explanation given to Joanna, in answer to a person's saying that the whole of the 24th Chapter of St. Matthew was to be fulfilled at the second coming of Christ. The reader is desired to examine the 24th and 25th chapters together, with great attention; they may then discover the events that befell the Apostles and Disciples of their Lord, which he told them would happen to them after his death:-the destruction of Jerusalem; the false prophets and impostors of those days, &e. By an attentive reading of the two chapters, any person who searches for the truth, may know how to separate the two chapters, so as to discover the calamities that fell in those days, distinct from the blessings that will attend true and faith

ful believers at this time, when the powers of hell can only fall on the wicked and unbelievers, who would wish to perpetuate human misery, and continue the dominion of Satan on the human race without end.

Here is the answer of the Spirit.

"How do men read my Bible, without weighing one thing with another! Let them read both chapters together, and then they may judge for themselves: but how can they judge of one without the other? In the 24th, I spoke to my disciples of the destruction of Jerusalem, and their persecution, and the false prophets that then arose among them. How did the vagabond Jews try to act like my disciples! What sorcery and witchcraft were then used amongst the people! And how they delivered up my disciples to be killed for my sake! And how were they hated for my sake! Ye do not discern what is past, or what is to come; what has been already fulfilled; and what is to be fulfilled. The persecution I spoke of followed my disciples; and now the same spirit is risen against them again: but he that endures to the end shall be saved. For now shall my Gospel be preached in all the world: but this was never yet done. I have placed thy writings to shew mankind how my Bible stands: and how you must judge it. I told thee of three good harvests, if men seek to find the truth of thy writings; in the following year I told thee of a fatal harvest, if unbelief abounded; so they expected that to follow before the three following harvests of plenty were fulfilled; just so the Jews judged my Prophets that I must come first in power and great pomp and glory, to establish the throne of David, and have the uttermost parts of the earth for my possession, before I had been wounded for their sins, and bruised for their iniquities, or that the chastisement of their peace was laid upon ME: for as the words were spoken together, they knew not how to part them asunder; so both grew together until the harvest of the

Lord, which is approaching. And now I shall separate my Bible, and so will I separate the people, one from the other; for if they look for my coming, to bring in my Kingdom of Peace, they must look to what is said in the 25th chapter; for there I have told you the perfect end, how ye shallinherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world; which I made as a garden for Man, that he might be fruitful and multiply, and replenish the earth, and establish it in righteousness, and bring forth good fruit unto ME. This was the foundation I laid for you, of this world to be in union and communion with your GOD; and this I promised throughout my Bible to establish for man. Now, ye simple and unwise, how foolishly do ye understand my words or meaning! If ye judge the death I warned my disciples would certainly come to them, and the destruction of Jerusalem, that I said would follow, alluded to the time of my bringing inmy Kingdom of Peace; then the following chapter contradicts it; and so the fools may burn their Bibles, and perish for want of knowledge, and Israel destroy themselves; and so may all men destroy themselves, if they judge the death, that fell on my disciples, must fall on my followers in the end: when I said, in the following chapter, what was done unto my brethren was done unto ME, and so would I reward them; and they that despised my disciples despised ME;-and they shall be cut off. Now, if ye have no discernment of what you read, how it was then fulfilled, and what was to follow after; one chapter contradicts the other; for, in the following chapter, it goes well with my disciples, and all others are cast out with these words-1 know you not! for thus I likened my coming, to the coming of the Bridegroom; and so I likened the Kingdom of Heaven to Man."
