Has anyone looked into Jane Leads writings?

Historically traced, much of the Hyper Charasmatic church is influenced by her teachings, especially the NAR. These influences affect ideas including miracles and such, which is why I post this here
I'll paraphrase some of what she prophesied:
That there will be a total renewal by which the true church will shine by operating in signs and wonders,
Man made religion will be brought down, and the Holy Spirit will individually teach each true faithed Christian in Gods ways.
This will be the seal that separates the sheep/goats. The true church will operate in the Spirit.
She has a belief as well that the giftings though they had fallen away, would make a resurgence and would be the mark of a true believer.
The problem I see with her is that she got all of these propheys from "Gods wife" who's name is Sophia, she being the goddess of wisdom.
Wouldn't this imply that miracles/signs and wonders had ceased around the 1600's?
Also if the giftings needed a resurgence wouldnt that had meant they weren't being practiced?
I believe that the Holy Spirt still works today, and that miracles are possible and do happen. I also believe that the Holy spirit can and does give giftings.
I just also wonder what significance church history may have, like why were people not operating in these things and why did it take a pagan woman to shape the history of the Charasmatic movement? Which in essense brought much of the modern day sighns, wonders, prophesy/practices of giftings and what not.
How should we interpret the Bible? I do not always have the answer for this as we can all be lead stray by our own wants and desires. I thank God that he doesnt let us fall too far away. Context obviously is the main importance, but how much of history should shape our views?
Anyway, please if im wrong correct me. Also feel free to look for yourself regarding her writings, and the history leading up to the latter rain movment, early pentacostalism, and the other main charasmatic groups. and tell me what you find!
