A52677	An account from the children of light (to them that askes) in several particulars why we have been kept from joyning to, or worshipping in those formes at law, and formes of worships, that have been imposed upon us against our consciences, in these late years, for denying whereof, we have so deeply suffered, with our lives, liberties, and estates. : Also what we owne as to those things, and can be obedient to for conscience sake, according to truth, and the practise of the church of Christ, and the Scriptures.	Naylor, James, 1617?-1660.; Hubberthorn, Richard, 1628-1662.	1660 (1660)	Wing N256; ESTC R27517	31,099	57

estate_n and_o life_n to_o see_v if_o they_o can_v provoke_v or_o drive_v we_o from_o his_o faith_n in_o our_o conscience_n or_o tempt_v we_o any_o way_n to_o deny_v he_o and_o own_o they_o in_o their_o will_n and_o though_o we_o have_v daily_o suffer_v thus_o under_o every_o several_a power_n and_o people_n yet_o have_v we_o not_o cease_v to_o warn_v they_o in_o love_n with_o much_o fear_n and_o plainness_n that_o if_o by_o any_o mean_n they_o may_v have_v receive_v his_o testimony_n and_o not_o have_v perish_v in_o their_o gain_n say_v for_o our_o god_n in_o who_o we_o trust_v show_v it_o to_o we_o that_o they_o shall_v not_o prosper_v nor_o be_v establish_v without_o he_o his_o spirit_n and_o anoint_v to_o who_o he_o have_v give_v the_o government_n of_o all_o people_n that_o

resurrection_n for_o their_o glory_n and_o his_o anoint_n for_o the_o strength_n of_o their_o kingdom_n and_o this_o be_v the_o cause_n why_o we_o have_v choose_v rather_o to_o suffer_v under_o every_o power_n that_o yet_o have_v rise_v then_o to_o join_v in_o with_o they_o because_o we_o have_v not_o hear_v the_o voice_n of_o the_o holy_a one_o in_o the_o midst_n of_o they_o neither_o have_v his_o spirit_n in_o they_o be_v the_o strength_n of_o their_o counsel_n 5.21_o but_o they_o have_v seek_v to_o make_v flesh_n their_o arm_n and_o to_o strengthen_v their_o kingdom_n with_o flattery_n and_o deceit_n and_o not_o with_o truth_n 17.5_o and_o they_o have_v seek_v to_o make_v themselves_o dreadful_a by_o violence_n and_o to_o rule_v with_o cruelty_n and_o not_o with_o the_o

not_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n 30.1_o so_o with_o the_o light_n of_o christ_n we_o see_v their_o foundation_n and_o their_o building_n and_o that_o they_o can_v not_o stand_v long_o in_o god_n

cause_n and_o no_o other_o thing_n why_o we_o have_v hitherto_o bear_v our_o testimony_n against_o they_o all_o even_o because_o they_o will_v not_o join_v to_o the_o lord_n nor_o hear_v his_o voice_n in_o their_o day_n but_o the_o more_o he_o call_v after_o they_o by_o the_o mouth_n of_o his_o servant_n the_o more_o they_o be_v ●ardned_v and_o the_o more_o provoke_v he_o to_o their_o own_o

we_o have_v the_o witness_n of_o truth_n in_o we_o to_o this_o day_n how_o glad_a our_o soul_n have_v be_v before_o the_o lord_n when_o we_o have_v but_o feel_v the_o least_o tenderness_n in_o any_o of_o they_o arise_v ●rom_o the_o spirit_n of_o jesus_n or_o the_o least_o confession_n from_o his_o light_n in_o they_o and_o sometime_o we_o have_v feel_v some_o tenderness_n in_o some_o of_o they_o when_o they_o have_v be_v low_a little_a and_o in_o fear_n in_o which_o we_o have_v have_v some_o hope_n and_o gladness_n to_o hear_v the_o voice_n of_o simplicity_n and_o truth_n though_o but_o
