A41345 A few lines in true love to such that frequent the meetings of the people called Quakers and love to hear the sound of truth but are not yet come to obey the testimony of it, that they may also hear and learn to read at home : with a second addition as a confirmation of what the Lord requires at your hands.

lord_n for_o this_o the_o land_n of_o our_o nativity_n and_o country_n in_o which_o we_o dwell_v for_o which_o dear_a friend_n let_v we_o increase_v the_o number_n of_o true_a breathe_n tender_a and_o fervent_a supplication_n such_o as_o may_v find_v acceptance_n with_o the_o great_a god_n who_o be_v lord_n of_o lord_n and_o king_n of_o king_n and_o aught_o to_o be_v the_o only_a ruler_n in_o

f._n my_o friend_n these_o forego_v line_n be_v intend_v you_o some_o time_n since_o but_o i_o be_v not_o willing_a hasty_o to_o publish_v they_o till_o now_o have_v good_a confirmation_n by_o the_o testimony_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n that_o run_v as_o in_o a_o current_n or_o stream_n of_o life_n through_o many_o of_o his_o faithful_a servant_n by_o which_o you_o and_o i_o may_v understand_v that_o this_o be_v his_o will_n and_o the_o present_a concern_v of_o many_o that_o be_v convince_v of_o the_o bless_a truth_n and_o come_v among_o we_o that_o they_o may_v all_o walk_v in_o the_o truth_n and_o according_a to_o the_o righteous_a testimony_n of_o it_o in_o their_o own_o heart_n that_o still_o the_o testimony_n of_o truth_n may_v be_v preserve_v in_o the_o purity_n and_o sweetness_n of_o it_o by_o all_o you_o who_o do_v profess_v it_o and_o have_v believe_v in_o the_o spiritual_a appearance_n of_o christ_n jesus_n in_o your_o heart_n who_o say_v i_o be_o come_v a_o light_n into_o the_o world_n he_o that_o believe_v in_o i_o shall_v not_o abide_v in_o darkness_n but_o shall_v have_v the_o light_n of_o life_n and_o bless_v be_v the_o lord_n many_o can_v testify_v he_o that_o have_v promise_v be_v faithful_a to_o perform_v by_o which_o we_o know_v the_o true_a light_n have_v not_o only_o break_v forth_o but_o the_o sun_n have_v also_o rise_v and_o in_o its_o clearness_n shine_v that_o discoveres_n unto_o man_n what_o be_v good_a and_o make_v know_v the_o exceptable_a will_n of_o god_n which_o be_v that_o man_n shall_v do_v just_o love_v mercy_n and_o walk_v humble_o with_o god_n who_o all-seeing_a eye_n behold_v all_o thing_n both_o the_o evil_a and_o the_o good_a and_o therefore_o you_o that_o have_v believe_v in_o the_o light_n take_v heed_n to_o the_o light_n that_o you_o may_v be_v the_o child_n of_o the_o light_n and_o of_o that_o bless_a day_n that_o many_o through_o the_o divine_a discovery_n of_o it_o have_v and_o will_v find_v themselves_o concern_v to_o do_v good_a and_o communicate_v of_o those_o spiritual_a blessing_n that_o they_o do_v receive_v from_o the_o hand_n of_o the_o lord_n who_o through_o the_o riches_n of_o his_o love_n do_v communicate_v to_o his_o child_n and_o people_n that_o wait_v upon_o he_o such_o inward_a comfort_n that_o do_v refresh_v they_o by_o which_o they_o have_v be_v often_o make_v to_o say_v it_o be_v the_o lord_n that_o open_v the_o depth_n and_o cause_v the_o brook_n to_o run_v by_o the_o way_n and_o therefore_o in_o a_o live_a sense_n thereof_o let_v we_o all_o be_v of_o a_o ready_a mind_n as_o dear_a child_n to_o communicate_v and_o also_o to_o receive_v one_o from_o another_o that_o which_o the_o lord_n may_v see_v convenient_a by_o any_o hand_n to_o distribute_v among_o we_o that_o may_v tend_v to_o edification_n strength_n or_o confirmation_n in_o that_o measure_n of_o the_o samemost_a holy_a faith_n which_o be_v once_o deliver_v to_o the_o saint_n and_o

believe_v in_o the_o dispensation_n of_o his_o grace_n and_o power_n in_o our_o heart_n may_v be_v preserve_v under_o the_o safe_a conduct_n of_o it_o through_o this_o the_o pilgrimage_n of_o our_o sojourn_v here_o towards_o that_o everlasting_a rest_n which_o many_o people_n be_v desirous_a to_o enter_v and_o of_o which_o the_o lord_n have_v give_v some_o a_o earnest_n in_o this_o our_o day_n by_o which_o they_o be_v encourage_v to_o go_v forward_o in_o that_o way_n which_o lead_v to_o everlasting_a life_n which_o way_n be_v christ_n jesus_n who_o appear_v in_o we_o to_o we_o and_o among_o we_o for_o that_o very_a end_n that_o she_o may_v restore_v man_n and_o woman_n into_o a_o state_n of_o happiness_n and_o felicity_n again_o with_o god_n their_o maker_n who_o make_v man_n for_o a_o purpose_n of_o his_o own_o glory_n although_o man_n have_v seek_v out_o many_o invention_n with_o pretence_n to_o glorify_v god_n but_o we_o may_v see_v that_o man_n pretend_a way_n have_v great_o tend_v to_o the_o dishonour_n of_o the_o righteous_a god_n that_o make_v he_o and_o have_v put_v his_o spirit_n in_o he_o for_o that_o very_a end_n that_o man_n may_v be_v teach_v by_o it_o to_o deny_v ungodliness_n through_o his_o subjection_n to_o it_o or_o otherwise_o what_o be_v all_o man_n saying_n or_o do_v in_o pretence_n to_o honour_n god_n while_o they_o do_v live_v in_o unrighteousness_n and_o do_v unjust_o one_o by_o another_o which_o we_o do_v too_o often_o see_v be_v incident_a to_o man_n in_o his_o fall_a nature_n and_o therefore_o in_o this_o consist_v all_o man_n happiness_n in_o believe_v and_o receive_v he_o who_o god_n have_v ordain_v a_o mean_n for_o their_o recovery_n by_o which_o they_o may_v be_v bring_v into_o a_o state_n of_o union_n and_o

chief_a business_n to_o walk_v according_a to_o the_o conviction_n of_o it_o that_o by_o the_o measure_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n receive_v you_o may_v be_v able_a to_o resist_v that_o anti-christian_n spirit_n which_o be_v against_o god_n and_o a_o enemy_n to_o all_o righteousness_n and_o as_o you_o come_v to_o be_v inward_a and_o commune_v with_o your_o own_o heart_n and_o be_v still_o you_o will_v find_v what_o be_v most_o consistent_a with_o and_o agreeable_a to_o the_o nature_n of_o godliness_n and_o what_o be_v most_o against_o the_o nature_n of_o god_n who_o be_v love_n and_o they_o that_o dwell_v in_o love_n be_v find_v in_o that_o which_o be_v good_a and_o most_o agreeable_a to_o his_o will_n who_o be_v the_o author_n of_o all_o good_a and_o hear_v you_o will_v come_v to_o find_v the_o plain_a path_n way_n as_o you_o come_v to_o receive_v the_o reproof_n for_o that_o which_o be_v against_o god_n by_o which_o you_o will_v also_o find_v by_o good_a and_o sound_a experience_n that_o the_o reproof_n of_o instruction_n be_v the_o way_n to_o life_n and_o this_o be_v the_o universal_a love_n of_o our_o god_n to_o all_o mankind_n that_o thereby_o they_o may_v come_v under_o the_o peaceable_a government_n of_o his_o son_n our_o lord_n and_o saviour_n christ_n jesus_n to_o who_o in_o true_a love_n let_v i_o recommend_v you_o that_o we_o may_v all_o be_v partaker_n of_o the_o bless_a benefit_n death_n and_o suffering_n of_o our_o lord_n who_o give_v himself_o a_o ransom_n that_o he_o may_v redeem_v mankind_n from_o all_o iniquity_n and_o disobedience_n by_o which_o he_o do_v violate_v his_o law_n and_o incur_v his_o displeasure_n but_o through_o christ_n in_o the_o riches_n of_o his_o love_n he_o have_v and_o do_v call_v all_o man_n every_o where_o to_o repentance_n and_o that_o they_o may_v repent_v with_o that_o repentance_n that_o can_v never_o be_v repent_v of_o and_o therefore_o all_o you_o to_o who_o the_o call_v of_o the_o
