A64243	The true light shining in darkness and dispelling the mists of errour arising from the darkness of man's heart, &c. promoted by the prince of darkness against the truth of God; in the matter of our justification: shewing, that by the deeds of the law, or mans own righteousness, no flesh can or shall be justified in the sight of God. The first part. By Tho. Taylor, the meanest and unworthiest of the servants and ministers of Jesus Christ; and now pastor to a small congregational church in Cambridge.	Taylor, Thomas, 1618-1682.	1693 (1693)	Wing T559; ESTC R219692	113,014	241

that Jesus Christ is Lord to the glory of God the Father Wherefore my beloved as ye have always obeyed not as in my presence only but much more in my absence work out your own Salvation with fear and trembling And verily he shall appear to be something at the great day when he shall come to judge the World and before him shall be gathered all Nations as Matth. 25.31 32 33 34. When the Son of man shall come in his glory and all the Holy Angels with him then shall he sit upon the Throne of his glory And before him shall be gathered all nations and he shall separate them one from another as a Shepherd divideth his Sheep from the Goats And he shall set the Sheep on his right hand but the Goats on his left Then shall the King say to them on his right hand Come ye blessed of my Father inherit the Kingdom prepared for you before the foundation of the World And thou thy self also must appear before his judgment seat 2 Cor. 5.10 11. For we must all appear before the Judgment seat of Christ that every one may receive the things done in his body according to that he hath done whither it be good or bad Knowing therefore the terror of the Lord we persuade men but we are made manifest unto God and I trust also are made manifest in your Consciences And Rev. 6.15 16 17. And the Kings of the Earth and the Great men and the Rich men and the Chief Captains and the Mighty men and every Bond-man and every Free-man hid themselves in the Dens and in the Rocks of the Mountains And said to the Mountains and Rocks Fall on us and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the Throne and from the wrath of the Lamb For the great day of his wrath is come and who shall be able to stand And Rev. 20.12 13 14 15. And I saw the dead small and great stand before God and the books were opened And another book was opened which is the book of Life and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books according to their works And the Sea gave up the dead which were in it and Death and Hell delivered up the dead which were in them And they were judged every man according to their works And Death and Hell were cast into the Lake of Fire This is the second Death And whosoever was not found written in the Book of Life was cast into the Lake of Fire And this day will come as a Thief in the night 2 Pet. 3.10 But the day of the Lord will come as a Thief in the night in the which the Heavens shall pass away with a great noise and the elements shall melt with fervent heat the Earth also with the works that are therein shall be burnt up And Rev. 22.11 12. He that is unjust let him be unjust still And he which is filthy let him be filthy still And he that is righteous let him be righteous still And he that is holy let him be be holy still And behold I come quickly and my reward is with me to give every man according as his work shall be Well then Reader whoever thou art know that the word Kingdom is good Seed and the Sower is the Son of man Matth. 13.37 He answered and said unto them He that soweth the good seed is the Son of man We are but his under Servants to minister from him this good seed and our great Lord is able to bless the seed sown though we be nothing as 1 Cor. 3.5 6 7 8. Who then is Paul and who is Apollos but Ministers by whom ye believed even as the Lord gave to every man I have planted Apollos watered but God gave the increase So then neither is he that planteth any thing neither he that watereth But God that giveth the increase Now he that planteth and he that watereth are on● And every man shall receive his own reward according to his own labour With 2 Cor. 9.10 Now he that ministreth seed to the sower doth minister bread for your food and multiply the seed sown and increase the fruits of your righteousness And the ground into which we must sow this seed is the heart tho' thro' the ear Matth. 13.9 Who hath ears to hear let him hear The good ground is the good and honest Heart The Lord make thine such and then there will be good fruit brought forth with patience and to perfections though in different measures and degrees as Matth. 13.23 But he that received seed into the good ground is he that heareth the Word and understandeth it which also beareth fruit and bringeth forth some an hundred-fold some fifty some thirty Luke 8.15 But that on the good ground are they which in an honest and good heart having heard the word keep it and bring forth fruit with patience To thy salvation and God's glory which the Lord grant unto thee And pray for us his poor Ministers and Servants and particularly for the meanest and most unworthy of them all thy Servant for Christs sake in the Work of the Gospel Tho. Taylor To my many Worthy and Beloved Friends of divers Congregations in and about the City of London the Town of Hackney and other Towns within and without the Lines of Communication where I have occasionally Preached this Gospel Grace and Peace MOST Dear and Pretious Friends Pretious I say for the late Pretious Faith obtained by you with us 2 Pet. 1.1 Simon Peter a Servant and an Apostle of Jesus Christ to them that have obtained like pretious Faith with us through the righteousness of God and our Saviour Jesus Christ By which Faith the very Faith of Gods Elect Christ is pretious indeed to you 1 Pet 2.7 Unto you therefore which believe he is pretious But unto them which be disobedient the stone which the builders disallowed the same is made the head of the corner when to others a stumbling stone even to them that stumble at the word being disobedient Your Names are too many to be prefixed to this short Epistle and besides in the matter of truth I like not to go to the Poll as if truth needed a Muster-roll of names to carry the voice against such as are the opposers of it It is enough that Christ hath a few names in Sardis who have not defiled their Garments and which shall walk with him in white for they are worthy It matters not how many the names of others in Sardis were Rev. 3.4 Thou hast a few names even in Sardis that have not defiled their Garments and they shall walk with me in white for they are worthy It is enough that wisdom is justified of her Children When true Wisdom neither in John Baptist the forerunner who was greater than all the Prophets nor in Christ the Head and Lord of them all could have a testimony from an evil and adulterous Generation Or if they had
