plain_a proof_n to_o make_v it_o appear_v if_o they_o can_v which_o i_o know_v they_o be_v no_o more_o able_a to_o do_v than_o to_o hinder_v the_o sun_n from_o shine_v nor_o the_o wind_n from_o blow_v and_o therefore_o the_o teacher_n among_o the_o people_n call_v quaker_n exhort_v people_n to_o mind_n love_n and_o receive_v to_o believe_v and_o walk_v in_o this_o divine_a light_n that_o will_v do_v that_o for_o they_o which_o no_o other_o can_v it_o will_v show_v they_o their_o thought_n discover_v their_o condition_n let_v they_o see_v they_o be_v sinner_n and_o that_o they_o can_v save_v themselves_o and_o as_o they_o believe_v in_o this_o light_n be_v true_o sorry_a for_o their_o sin_n and_o unfeigned_o repent_v of_o they_o and_o come_v to_o walk_v in_o this_o light_n they_o will_v have_v the_o benefit_n of_o the_o death_n and_o suffering_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n that_o die_v for_o our_o sin_n and_z rise_v again_o for_o our_o justification_n and_o experience_n his_o blood_n to_o cleanse_v they_o from_o all_o unrighteousness_n and_o may_v come_v to_o find_v peace_n be_v fit_v for_o god_n kingdom_n and_o know_v salvation_n to_o their_o immortal_a and_o never-dying_a soul_n but_o those_o that_o rebel_n against_o it_o do_v evil_a and_o hate_v it_o and_o will_v not_o receive_v nor_o believe_v in_o it_o nor_o bring_v their_o deed_n to_o it_o if_o they_o be_v as_o wise_a as_o achitophel_n as_o learned_a as_o gamaliel_n and_o can_v live_v to_o the_o age_n of_o methusalem_n they_o can_v never_o know_v true_a peace_n nor_o enter_v into_o god_n kingdom_n but_o will_v be_v punish_v with_o everlasting_a destruction_n from_o the_o presence_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o from_o the_o glory_n of_o his_o power_n 2_o thess_n 1.9_o and_o will_v be_v turn_v into_o outter_n darkness_n where_o the_o weep_v and_o gnash_n of_o tooth_n be_v mat._n 8.12_o therefore_o let_v all_o have_v a_o care_n they_o do_v not_o hate_v it_o nor_o rebel_n against_o it_o nor_o continue_v in_o any_o thing_n that_o this_o light_n manifest_v to_o they_o to_o be_v contrary_a to_o the_o will_n of_o god_n but_o believe_v in_o it_o that_o they_o may_v receive_v power_n to_o do_v that_o which_o it_o show_v they_o they_o ought_v to_o do_v and_o become_v the_o son_n of_o god_n and_o if_o b._n bird_n will_v but_o diligent_o and_o reverent_o read_v the_o gospel_n in_o the_o common-prayer_n which_o be_v to_o be_v read_v on_o christmas-day_n he_o may_v find_v this_o doctrine_n thorough_o prove_v and_o this_o exhorration_n in_o the_o commination_n viz._n let_v we_o while_o we_o have_v the_o light_n believe_v in_o the_o light_n and_o walk_v as_o the_o child_n of_o the_o light_n that_o we_o be_v not_o cast_v into_o utter_a darkness_n where_o be_v weep_v and_o gnash_n of_o tooth_n the_o next_o thing_n i_o observe_v be_v his_o quarrel_v about_o the_o scripture_n concern_v which_o he_o say_v page_n 5._o which_o be_v p._n 9_o of_o my_o former_a viz._n that_o christ_n light_n be_v to_o be_v prefer_v because_o it_o be_v before_o the_o scripture_n answer_n yes_o so_o it_o be_v and_o so_o do_v b._n bird_n confess_v for_o he_o say_v they_o be_v give_v we_o by_o christ_n than_o christ_n be_v before_o they_o and_o be_v worthy_a to_o be_v prefer_v above_o the_o scripture_n which_o b._n b._n say_v be_v give_v we_o by_o christ_n see_v p._n 6._o and_o will_v he_o prefer_v the_o gift_n before_o the_o giver_n and_o in_o p._n 6._o he_o say_v i_o charge_v those_o that_o take_v the_o scripture_n for_o their_o only_a rule_n of_o faith_n and_o obedience_n as_o if_o they_o do_v set_v they_o above_o the_o spirit_n and_o above_o christ_n but_o he_o quote_v no_o page_n of_o my_o book_n however_o b._n bird_n say_v this_o be_v a_o false_a charge_n for_o they_o be_v give_v we_o by_o christ_n answer_n then_o christ_n be_v before_o the_o scripture_n as_o aforesaid_a and_o b._n bird_n grant_v it_o where_o then_o be_v the_o falseness_n of_o the_o charge_n and_o why_o be_v he_o angry_a if_o he_o prefer_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n for_o the_o first_o great_a or_o supreme_a rule_n of_o his_o child_n i_o will_v grant_v he_o that_o the_o holy_a scripture_n that_o be_v write_v by_o holy_a man_n as_o they_o be_v move_v by_o the_o holy_a spirit_n be_v the_o secondary_a and_o subordinate_a rule_n what_o false_a doctrine_n be_v there_o in_o this_o and_o in_o p._n 6._o b._n b._n say_v christ_n send_v we_o to_o the_o holy_a scripture_n to_o search_v for_o he_o and_o not_o to_o the_o light_n that_o be_v within_o and_o therefore_o we_o have_v reason_n to_o hearken_v to_o he_o and_o not_o to_o those_o that_o will_v draw_v we_o from_o they_o to_o something_o better_a in_o our_o own_o heart_n and_o conscience_n which_o we_o shall_v keep_v close_o to_o answer_n the_o first_o part_n relate_v to_o what_o christ_n say_v john_n 5.39,40_o i_o grant_v that_o christ_n word_n search_v or_o you_o search_v etc._n etc._n do_v not_o carry_v any_o reproof_n in_o they_o for_o their_o search_v the_o scripture_n but_o for_o their_o not_o come_v to_o he_o the_o true_a light_n and_o think_v to_o have_v eternal_a life_n in_o the_o scripture_n for_o say_v he_o they_o be_v they_o that_o testify_v of_o i_o and_o then_o blame_v they_o that_o they_o will_v not_o come_v to_o he_o that_o they_o may_v have_v life_n so_o that_o he_o do_v principal_o desire_v they_o may_v come_v to_o he_o the_o true_a light_n that_o shine_v in_o their_o heart_n and_o conscience_n and_o which_o be_v something_o better_a than_o the_o scripture_n that_o testify_v of_o he_o although_o b._n bird_n be_v not_o willing_a to_o hearken_v to_o they_o that_o will_v draw_v he_o to_o something_o better_a than_o the_o scripture_n o_o strange_a be_v this_o the_o man_n that_o say_v we_o shall_v keep_v to_o john_n 5.39,40_o and_o yet_o will_v not_o come_v to_o christ_n which_o be_v something_o better_a than_o the_o scripture_n for_o although_o they_o he_o speak_v to_o think_v to_o have_v eternal_a life_n they_o be_v mistake_v and_o if_o b._n b._n think_v so_o he_o be_v mistake_v for_o he_o can_v have_v eternal_a life_n till_o he_o come_v to_o christ_n the_o true_a light_n and_o believe_v and_o walk_v therein_o which_o be_v the_o some_o thing_n better_a than_o the_o scripture_n which_o b._n b._n say_v he_o have_v more_o reason_n to_o hearken_v to_o and_o i_o hearty_o wish_v b._n b._n do_v so_o and_o that_o all_o people_n do_v practice_v and_o believe_v according_a to_o holy_a scripture_n and_o in_o p._n 7_o he_o say_v he_o i._n e._n john_n feild_n find_v fault_n with_o many_o say_v we_o can_v tell_v whether_o we_o have_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n in_o we_o but_o by_o the_o scripture_n but_o can_v he_o or_o any_o one_o else_o tell_v how_o we_o shall_v know_v the_o spirit_n of_o truth_n to_o be_v in_o we_o but_o by_o the_o scripture_n of_o truth_n answer_n yes_o by_o its_o own_o evidence_n and_o work_n in_o our_o heart_n because_o that_o be_v not_o want_v to_o do_v that_o in_o we_o which_o christ_n who_o be_v the_o truth_n promise_v it_o shall_v see_v john_n 16_o 7-13_a he_o do_v not_o say_v the_o scripture_n shall_v convince_v of_o sin_n etc._n etc._n but_o the_o spirit_n of_o truth_n which_o those_o that_o write_v scripture_n be_v move_v by_o and_o by_o this_o spirit_n and_o the_o light_n thereof_o those_o that_o never_o see_v or_o hear_v the_o scripture_n may_v know_v good_a and_o evil_a see_v rom._n yea_o god_n and_o the_o thing_n of_o god_n as_o well_o as_o those_o do_v that_o be_v before_o the_o scripture_n be_v as_o adam_z enoch_n abraham_n and_o moses_n who_o my_o antagonist_n grant_v to_o have_v have_v immediate_a converse_n with_o god_n and_o sure_o that_o must_v be_v by_o the_o spirit_n and_o as_o god_n and_o his_o spirit_n change_v not_o so_o he_o can_v and_o do_v by_o his_o spirit_n let_v we_o know_v we_o be_v of_o god_n as_o primitive_a christian_n do_v and_o that_o the_o whole_a world_n lie_v in_o wickedness_n in_o p._n 6._o he_o say_v i_o ask_v what_o damnable_a error_n the_o quaker_n hold_v and_o b._n b._n say_v let_v he_o read_v john_n faldo_n book_n call_v quakerism_n no_o christianity_n and_o thomas_n danson_n the_o quaker_n folly_n and_o his_o synopsis_n of_o quakerism_n answer_n observe_v how_o he_o recommend_v i_o to_o our_o adversary_n book_n for_o proof_n will_v he_o have_v i_o refer_v he_o to_o those_o book_n that_o papist_n or_o presbyterian_o have_v write_v against_o the_o church_n of_o england_n for_o proof_n that_o their_o doctrine_n be_v erroneous_a and_o damnable_a this_o show_v his_o folly_n as_o well_o as_o enmity_n and_o that_o he_o be_v not_o wise_a but_o otherwise_o in_o that_o he_o will_v have_v judgement_n against_o we_o by_o false_a accusation_n
