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.

from_o among_o the_o son_n of_o man_n to_o bear_v his_o name_n among_o the_o heathen_a in_o truth_n and_o righteousness_n according_a to_o my_o measure_n who_o have_v give_v i_o life_n in_o the_o

all_o lose_v and_o go_v do_v you_o not_o love_v the_o world_n and_o few_o the_o thing_n of_o jesus_n christ_n for_o they_o that_o love_v the_o world_n have_v not_o the_o love_n of_o god_n in_o they_o and_o since_o it_o please_v god_n to_o reveal_v his_o son_n in_o i_o who_o have_v choose_v i_o and_o call_v i_o by_o his_o grace_n out_o from_o my_o father_n house_n &_o from_o my_o kindred_n also_o do_v not_o even_o many_o of_o you_o hate_v i_o without_o a_o cause_n and_o even_o scorn_v i_o and_o even_o wag_v your_o head_n at_o i_o and_o gaze_v upon_o i_o and_o say_v lo_o this_o be_v he_o and_o some_o say_v that_o they_o pity_v i_o and_o be_v sorry_a for_o i_o that_o i_o shall_v choose_v a_o way_n that_o be_v so_o contemptible_a and_o despise_v among_o man_n friend_n to_o the_o light_n of_o christ_n in_o all_o your_o conscience_n i_o speak_v what_o evil_a have_v i_o do_v since_o i_o own_v christ_n jesus_n my_o everlasting_a light_n to_o be_v my_o teacher_n whereof_o i_o may_v be_v ashamed_a convince_v i_o be_v it_o a_o unrighteous_a thing_n with_o you_o to_o choose_v to_o follow_v that_o which_o be_v good_a in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n and_o of_o all_o honest_a man_n even_o to_o follow_v after_o righteousness_n and_o truth_n and_o to_o turn_v from_o darkness_n unto_o the_o light_n and_o from_o the_o power_n of_o satan_n unto_o god_n and_o be_v not_o the_o way_n of_o

mighty_a man_n of_o war_n set_v he_o at_o nought_o so_o it_o be_v possible_a that_o that_o which_o be_v high_o esteem_v among_o man_n may_v be_v abomination_n in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n and_o that_o which_o be_v chief_o despise_v among_o man_n and_o set_v at_o nought_o with_o they_o may_v be_v chief_o own_v and_o high_o esteem_v with_o god_n and_o precious_a for_o my_o way_n be_v not_o as_o your_o way_n neither_o be_v your_o way_n as_o my_o way_n say_v the_o lord_n so_o it_o be_v plain_a that_o whosoever_o will_v live_v godly_a in_o christ_n jesus_n must_v suffer_v persecution_n and_o must_v be_v hate_v of_o all_o man_n for_o whosoever_o depart_v from_o iniquity_n make_v himself_o a_o prey_n to_o the_o heathen_a and_o become_v a_o reproach_n and_o a_o byword_n among_o the_o

so_o weep_v not_o for_o i_o because_o my_o father_n according_a to_o the_o flesh_n have_v shut_v his_o door_n against_o i_o who_o have_v despise_v and_o forsake_v his_o own_o child_n contrary_a to_o

with_o he_o who_o be_v my_o natural_a father_n according_a as_o he_o have_v deal_v with_o i_o as_o to_o shut_v he_o out_o of_o his_o kingdom_n for_o ever_o be_v it_o not_o just_a and_o equal_a but_o

he_o who_o now_o dives-like_a be_v feed_v upon_o his_o many_o dish_n and_o have_v forget_v god_n that_o make_v he_o for_o i_o tell_v he_o before_o that_o he_o put_v i_o from_o he_o that_o i_o be_v

then_o he_o may_v after_o that_o he_o can_v convince_v i_o of_o unfaithfulness_n have_v some_o ground_n of_o cause_n why_o he_o will_v put_v i_o from_o he_o but_o to_o put_v i_o away_o without_o cause_n for_o a_o thing_n of_o nought_o this_o be_v a_o thing_n altogether_o unjust_a contrary_a to_o all_o reason_n and_o equity_n and_o as_o for_o any_o part_n of_o disobedience_n on_o my_o part_n towards_o he_o i_o know_v of_o none_o unless_o refuse_v to_o follow_v after_o the_o priest_n as_o he_o will_v have_v have_v i_o and_o i_o tell_v he_o that_o i_o can_v not_o find_v any_o profit_n by_o they_o and_o why_o will_v he_o therefore_o have_v i_o to_o follow_v after_o a_o people_n that_o can_v profit_v for_o god_n have_v say_v that_o they_o shall_v not_o profit_v the_o people_n at_o all_o and_o this_o shall_v all_o people_n find_v true_a by_o woeful_a experience_n that_o they_o shall_v never_o profit_v by_o they_o while_o they_o follow_v they_o for_o i_o will_v as_o glad_o have_v profit_v by_o they_o as_o any_o if_o it_o have_v be_v possible_a but_o the_o priest_n be_v a_o covetous_a wicked_a lie_v people_n a_o generation_n of_o viper_n who_o never_o be_v send_v of_o god_n how_o shall_v they_o therefore_o profit_v the_o people_n at_o all_o as_o by_o the_o scripture_n of_o truth_n i_o can_v prove_v they_o to_o be_v liar_n and_o deceiver_n all_o out_o of_o the_o doctrine_n of_o christ_n and_o of_o the_o apostle_n and_o it_o be_v not_o requisite_a that_o we_o shall_v follow_v liar_n and_o deceiver_n and_o blind_a guide_n so_o i_o can_v not_o but_o turn_v from_o they_o when_o i_o see_v their_o wickedness_n and_o lie_v against_o god_n and_o so_o in_o this_o thing_n it_o be_v better_a for_o i_o to_o obey_v god_n rather_o than_o my_o parent_n according_a to_o the_o flesh_n it_o be_v a_o matter_n of_o conscience_n towards_o god_n and_o it_o have_v be_v but_o fit_v i_o shall_v have_v have_v my_o liberty_n of_o conscience_n towards_o god_n to_o worship_n but_o my_o natural_a father_n will_v not_o suffer_v i_o to_o have_v this_o liberty_n but_o have_v shut_v his_o door_n against_o i_o and_o have_v put_v i_o from_o he_o upon_o this_o account_n for_o not_o follow_v the_o priest_n any_o long_o so_o have_v he_o not_o even_o hate_v i_o without_o cause_n when_o as_o both_o before_o he_o put_v i_o away_o and_o since_o i_o have_v prove_v the_o priest_n to_o be_v liar_n and_o deceiver_n according_a to_o the_o scripture_n therefore_o have_v he_o not_o herein_o exceed_v the_o heathen_a for_o a_o hard-hearted_a man_n against_o his_o own_o child_n let_v all_o honest_a man_n judge_v for_o the_o very_a first_o day_n i_o go_v unto_o a_o meeting_n of_o the_o people_n of_o god_n the_o same_o day_n at_o night_n i_o return_v again_o unto_o my_o father_n house_n and_o the_o door_n be_v shut_v against_o

i_o and_o then_o i_o call_v unto_o my_o brother_n william_n and_o bid_v he_o let_v i_o into_o the_o house_n and_o he_o tell_v i_o that_o he_o dare_v not_o let_v i_o into_o the_o house_n i_o ask_v he_o why_o he_o say_v that_o his_o father_n have_v send_v all_o his_o child_n and_o servant_n to_o bed_n &_o that_o he_o go_v throughout_o all_o the_o house_n himself_o to_o see_v that_o all_o the_o door_n be_v lock_v and_o bolt_v against_o i_o and_o do_v charge_v they_o all_o that_o if_o i_o do_v come_v not_o any_o of_o they_o to_o let_v i_o into_o the_o house_n if_o they_o do_v any_o of_o they_o he_o say_v that_o he_o will_v turn_v they_o also_o out_o of_o the_o door_n with_o i_o so_o william_n tell_v i_o these_o thing_n and_o that_o he_o dare_v not_o let_v i_o into_o the_o house_n so_o unto_o this_o day_n i_o remain_v a_o sufferer_n for_o righteousness_n sake_n and_o true_o i_o believe_v that_o i_o shall_v not_o have_v put_v pen_n to_o paper_n in_o reference_n as_o to_o all_o my_o suffering_n from_o my_o natural_a father_n have_v i_o not_o hear_v how_o he_o have_v report_v it_o that_o i_o run_v from_o he_o and_o the_o like_a so_o for_o the_o right_n inform_v all_o people_n understanding_n as_o to_o the_o truth_n of_o this_o matter_n i_o have_v brief_o in_o few_o word_n declare_v something_o of_o what_o have_v be_v do_v by_o he_o towards_o i_o and_o of_o what_o word_n pass_v between_o we_o but_o i_o may_v have_v intimate_v much_o more_o of_o his_o rage_n and_o cruelty_n &_o sore_o usuage_v of_o i_o but_o that_o i_o be_o against_o lay_v open_a nakedness_n and_o have_v only_o clear_v my_o own_o innocency_n as_o touch_v false_a report_n of_o run_v from_o my_o father_n house_n and_o the_o like_a as_o also_o his_o own_o family_n and_o other_o can_v witness_v against_o he_o to_o the_o contrary_a for_o i_o if_o they_o will_v but_o testify_v so_o let_v he_o consider_v and_o look_v back_o and_o see_v what_o he_o have_v do_v against_o the_o innocent_a that_o seek_v not_o his_o own_o who_o seek_v no_o revenge_n but_o suffer_v all_o thing_n endure_v all_o thing_n and_o envy_v not_o but_o in_o the_o peace_n which_o the_o world_n can_v give_v nor_o take_v away_o rest_v satisfy_v in_o his_o father_n love_n from_o above_o and_o so_o refer_v his_o cause_n unto_o he_o that_o see_v in_o secret_a who_o reward_v open_o and_o take_v vengeance_n for_o vengeance_n be_v i_o say_v the_o lord_n so_o i_o have_v boldness_n towards_o god_n in_o all_o my_o suffering_n and_o tribulation_n yea_o very_o i_o have_v the_o answer_n of_o a_o good_a conscience_n towards_o god_n and_o man_n herein_o god_n witness_v in_o i_o even_o the_o spirit_n of_o truth_n which_o bear_v witness_n to_o my_o spirit_n that_o i_o suffer_v for_o well_o do_v and_o who_o shall_v then_o condemn_v i_o and_o because_o i_o can_v for_o conscience-sake_n worship_v the_o beast_n nor_o follow_v the_o blind_a guide_v any_o long_o i_o be_o persecute_v and_o forsake_v of_o father_n and_o mother_n and_o of_o brethren_n and_o sister_n and_o of_o kindred_n too_o and_o these_o thing_n have_v they_o do_v unto_o i_o that_o the_o scripture_n may_v be_v fulfil_v according_a to_o christ_n word_n who_o say_v you_o shall_v be_v hate_v of_o all_o man_n for_o my_o sake_n and_o marvel_v not_o if_o the_o world_n hate_v you_o for_o it_o hate_v i_o before_o it_o hate_v you_o if_o you_o be_v of_o the_o world_n the_o world_n will_v love_v you_o for_o the_o world_n love_v its_o own_o but_o because_o i_o have_v choose_v you_o out_o of_o the_o world_n therefore_o the_o world_n

for_o my_o sake_n and_o the_o gospel_n say_v christ_n he_o can_v be_v my_o disciple_n and_o he_o that_o take_v not_o up_o his_o cross_n and_o follow_v not_o after_o i_o he_o be_v not_o worthy_a of_o

this_o life_n and_o in_o the_o world_n to_o come_v everlasting_a life_n so_o it_o be_v evident_a that_o whosoever_o will_v ●ive_a godly_a in_o christ_n jesus_n must_v suffer_v for_o he_o that_o depart_v from_o iniquity_n make_v himself_o a_o prey_n to_o the_o wicked_a and_o to_o the_o unrighteous_a and_o sinner_n so_o friend_n think_v it_o not_o strange_a i_o run_v not_o with_o you_o to_o
