A58143 Light sown for the righteous, and gladness for the upright in heart This is to go abroad among all people who are honest-hearted, especially amongst the inhabitants in Fourns Fells, in Lancashire, and among all who have known me after the flesh, that all honest people may see what I was in profession, and also what I now am by the grace of God. From him which hath come through great tribulations, who hath even left all for Christ, and hath not whereon to lay his head, but is forsaken of father and of mother, and of kinred also, even for the testimony of Jesus, and for the Word of God, whom the world calls, Thomas Rawlinson.

so_o god_n which_o be_v the_o way_n where_o christ_n may_v be_v find_v that_o i_o may_v come_v to_o know_v he_o even_o as_o i_o be_o know_v of_o he_o and_o find_v he_o the_o priest_n say_v that_o read_v the_o scripture_n and_o godly_a book_n as_o they_o call_v they_o and_o pray_v and_o follow_v they_o and_o hear_v they_o preach_v that_o this_o be_v the_o way_n where_o christ_n be_v to_o be_v find_v so_o i_o do_v run_v from_o one_o priest_n unto_o another_o to_o see_v if_o haply_o i_o can_v find_v christ_n among_o any_o of_o they_o for_o several_a year_n together_o but_o do_v not_o while_o i_o follow_v the_o priest_n so_o all_o my_o labour_n be_v in_o vain_a i_o spend_v my_o labour_n for_o that_o which_o be_v not_o bread_n and_o my_o strength_n for_o that_o which_o can_v not_o satisfy_v yea_o i_o do_v read_v the_o scripture_n often_o &_o buy_v the_o best_a book_n i_o can_v hear_v of_o and_o read_v they_o and_o pray_v earnest_o always_o but_o do_v not_o obtain_v nor_o prevail_v though_o i_o cry_v and_o weep_v much_o and_o the_o reason_n be_v because_o i_o seek_v unto_o a_o people_n that_o can_v profit_v for_o the_o lord_n in_o a_o way_n where_o he_o be_v not_o to_o be_v find_v in_o the_o way_n of_o the_o ungodly_a for_o god_n hear_v not_o sinner_n and_o the_o prayer_n of_o the_o wicked_a be_v sin_n but_o the_o prayer_n of_o the_o righteoas_n be_v his_o delight_n and_o while_o i_o remain_v servant_n to_o sin_n the_o lord_n do_v not_o regard_v my_o prayer_n for_o it_o be_v his_o own_o that_o praise_v he_o unto_o who_o his_o ear_n be_v open_v alway_n which_o he_o hear_v and_o have_v regard_n unto_o so_o i_o see_v that_o the_o priest_n be_v liar_n who_o will_v be_v teacher_n of_o other_o and_o yet_o know_n not_o what_o they_o say_v nor_o whereof_o they_o affirm_v who_o will_v persuade_v you_o to_o follow_v they_o and_o to_o uphold_v they_o in_o their_o covetous_a practice_n and_o tell_v people_n that_o hear_v they_o be_v the_o right_a way_n and_o observe_v their_o tradition_n and_o custom_n be_v the_o right_a way_n and_o believe_v in_o a_o christ_n without_o you_o and_o look_v for_o a_o christ_n without_o you_o be_v the_o right_a way_n so_o be_v those_o which_o christ_n speak_v of_o shall_v come_v in_o the_o last_o day_n say_v lo_o here_o be_v christ_n and_o lo_o there_o be_v christ_n but_o say_v he_o believe_v they_o n●r_n nor_o go_v not_o after_o they_o for_o friend_n that_o which_o may_v be_v know_v of_o god_n be_v manifest_a in_o you_o so_o till_o you_o return_v to_o that_o of_o god_n in_o you_o the_o light_n you_o be_v in_o the_o darkness_n out_o of_o the_o good_a way_n in_o a_o evil_a way_n in_o a_o way_n that_o be_v not_o good_a whatsoever_o you_o and_o your_o priest_n may_v say_v of_o it_o neighbour_n and_o friend_n i_o speak_v by_o experience_n what_o i_o have_v see_v and_o know_v that_o speak_v i_o unto_o you_o in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n that_o you_o may_v take_v warning_n betimes_o for_o there_o be_v no_o other_o way_n to_o know_v christ_n but_o in_o the_o light_n wherewith_o you_o be_v enlighten_v so_o if_o you_o will_v own_v the_o right_a way_n where_o god_n dwell_v &_o where_o he_o be_v to_o be_v find_v you_o must_v then_o return_v in_o to_o the_o light_n to_o that_o which_o may_v be_v know_v of_o god_n in_o you_o and_o be_v in_o love_n with_o the_o light_n for_o god_n be_v light_a he_o that_o love_v the_o light_n bring_v his_o deed_n to_o the_o light_n and_o come_v to_o the_o light_n christ_n know_v you_o not_o how_o that_o christ_n be_v in_o you_o except_o you_o be_v reprobate_n you_o that_o talk_v and_o prate_v and_o say_v you_o believe_v in_o a_o christ_n without_o you_o who_o be_v profess_v a_o god_n and_o a_o christ_n without_o you_o and_o that_o he_o save_v his_o people_n from_o their_o sin_n what_o be_v this_o to_o you_o who_o know_v not_o that_o christ_n be_v in_o you_o there_o shall_v you_o find_v he_o if_o ever_o you_o know_v he_o a_o saviour_n to_o you_o who_o be_v come_v a_o light_n into_o the_o world_n that_o all_o man_n through_o he_o may_v believe_v this_o be_v he_o who_o suffer_v and_o dye_v at_o jerusalem_n and_o no_o other_o christ_n i_o own_o i_o say_v what_o be_v this_o to_o you_o who_o be_v yet_o in_o your_o sin_n and_o do_v not_o believe_v that_o ever_o you_o shall_v be_v make_v free_a from_o sin_n while_o you_o be_v here_o but_o that_o you_o shall_v sin_v while_o you_o live_v have_v you_o not_o learn_v this_o of_o your_o priest_n for_o this_o be_v their_o doctrine_n which_o they_o bring_v you_o from_o their_o father_n the_o devil_n and_o yet_o you_o be_v believe_v it_o and_o receive_v it_o so_o what_o be_v this_o to_o you_o for_o you_o to_o say_v christ_n save_v his_o people_n from_o their_o sin_n for_o you_o bear_v witness_n against_o yourselves_o that_o he_o be_v not_o your_o saviour_n who_o be_v yet_o in_o your_o sin_n for_o you_o deny_v the_o work_n of_o god_n and_o resist_v it_o in_o yourselves_o and_o deny_v the_o end_n of_o christ_n come_v into_o the_o world_n which_o be_v to_o save_v his_o people_n from_o their_o sin_n who_o be_v come_v into_o the_o world_n a_o light_n and_o be_v manifest_a to_o destroy_v the_o work_n of_o the_o devil_n and_o sin_n be_v the_o work_n of_o the_o devil_n which_o christ_n come_v to_o destroy_v and_o you_o that_o say_v you_o must_v sin_v while_o you_o live_v you_o bear_v witness_n against_o yourselves_o that_o christ_n be_v not_o yet_o come_v to_o you_o so_o you_o be_v the_o servant_n of_o sin_n and_o be_v free_a from_o righteousness_n so_o what_o be_v christ_n to_o you_o and_o what_o be_v your_o profession_n worth_a so_o while_o i_o follow_v the_o priest_n i_o never_o know_v the_o way_n how_o to_o come_v to_o christ_n therefore_o i_o have_v no_o rest_n in_o my_o spirit_n day_n nor_o night_n from_o god_n while_o i_o follow_v the_o priest_n but_o wrath_n and_o horror_n and_o judgement_n pursue_v i_o for_o disobedience_n to_o that_o of_o god_n in_o my_o conscience_n and_o trouble_n on_o every_o hand_n on_o the_o right_a hand_n and_o on_o the_o left_a be_v sorrow_o and_o vexation_n of_o spirit_n and_o my_o heart_n within_o i_o do_v faint_a for_o fear_v i_o be_v even_o at_o my_o wits-end_n and_o have_v almost_o despair_v of_o hope_n and_o of_o comfort_n have_v not_o god_n preserve_v i_o though_o i_o know_v he_o not_o for_o i_o can_v find_v no_o assurance_n of_o the_o love_n of_o god_n to_o my_o soul_n while_o i_o follow_v the_o priest_n though_o then_o i_o can_v with_o the_o priest_n talk_v of_o high_a attainment_n and_o can_v also_o with_o they_o and_o with_o professor_n sometime_o boast_v of_o experience_n and_o also_o of_o joy_n and_o peace_n sometime_o when_o i_o be_v lift_v up_o into_o the_o airy_a imagination_n with_o they_o and_o so_o for_o a_o while_o i_o glory_v in_o the_o flesh_n with_o priest_n &_o people_n and_o make_v merry_a over_o the_o witness_n of_o god_n in_o i_o then_o be_v satan_n exalt_v above_o all_o that_o be_v call_v god_n in_o i_o and_o then_o both_o priest_n and_o people_n do_v love_v i_o and_o and_o speak_v well_o of_o i_o for_o the_o world_n love_v its_o own_o and_o the_o devil_n who_o fill_v his_o child_n with_o mirth_n and_o joy_n with_o sport_n and_o pleasure_n and_o with_o the_o glory_n of_o this_o world_n he_o will_v suffer_v his_o servant_n to_o have_v a_o profession_n of_o the_o truth_n and_o to_o boast_v of_o god_n to_o be_v their_o father_n and_o of_o christ_n to_o be_v their_o saviour_n and_o also_o to_o talk_v of_o faith_n and_o of_o righteousness_n and_o the_o like_a so_o that_o he_o can_v but_o maintain_v his_o work_n in_o they_o which_o be_v to_o lie_v and_o to_o swear_v to_o be_v angry_a to_o envy_v and_o to_o hate_v and_o to_o be_v proud_a and_o covetous_a and_o to_o oppress_v to_o dissemble_v and_o to_o deceive_v and_o to_o defraud_v and_o to_o cozen_v to_o fight_v to_o rail_v and_o to_o be_v drink_v to_o be_v heady_a and_o to_o be_v

of_o the_o flesh_n so_o i_o say_v if_o the_o devil_n have_v but_o the_o heart_n and_o can_v but_o keep_v his_o seat_n there_o he_o care_v not_o then_o what_o profession_n they_o be_v of_o he_o know_n
