DESCRIPTION
------------------------------------------------------------------------

George Fox preaches about the importance of faithfulness, waiting on
Christ for guidance, and walking in the light as new creatures in Him.
Believers are encouraged to live above the world, be patient, and allow
their minds to be directed by the immortal and undefiled spirit. Through
faith in Christ, believers can experience victory over the world,
salvation of their souls, and unity in one spirit and one faith.

My Friends,--Be faithful and keep your meetings; and in that light wait,
which comes from the head, Christ, in whom are all your lives; from
whence ye have your light, which is the life [John 1:4] in the son. And
ye, who do witness the high calling in Christ Jesus [Phil 3:14],and are
redeemed by him out of the world, and are become new creatures [2 Cor
5:17], walk above the world, and be not hasty [Eccl 5:2]; but in the
light and life wait, that with it your minds may be directed, and
guided, and joined together with that which is immortal and undefiled [1
Pet 1:4], in one spirit, up to the immortal God.

And that with the spirit which he hath given you, ye may witness the one
baptism into one body [1 Cor 12:13], and ye all with the light may see
the one faith, which Christ is the author and the finisher of [Heb
12:2]; and that ye may all see the end of your faith, the salvation of
your souls [1 Pet 1:9], with that which gives you the victory over the
world [1 Jn 5:4]. And fear the Lord, and take heed of strife, and live
in peace and love one with another, believing all in the light which
maketh manifest; that all ye may be the children of the light [John
12:36]. And this belief giveth the victory over the world. He that is of
this faith, is born of God [1 Jn 5:1]; and he that believeth in the
light shall not abide in darkness [John 12:46], nor shall ever be
confounded [1Pet 2:6].

For he believeth in that which manifesteth that, which is to be
confounded and trampled upon; and he shall not be condemned, but shall
have the light of life [John 8:12]. And he that believeth not in the
light is with the light condemned already. And he that heareth not the
voice of the son of God doth not live, but is in death. Therefore he
that heareth not the light which comes from Christ the life, heareth not
the voice of the son of God, and he cometh not to life. And the hour is
come that they which have been in the graves, have heard the voice of
the son of God and do live [John 5:25,28]; and they that do not hear the
voice of the son of God do not live, but are in the death and the grave.

And they that come to believe in the light hear the voice of the son of
God and live, and out of the condemnation are come; and live over
death,and the grave, and hell, and so come to life.

G. F.
