A54907	The captive (that hath long been in captivity) visited with the day-spring from on high. Or the prisoner (that hath fitten in the prison-house of woful darkness) freed into the everlasting light and covenant of God, in which perfect peace and satisfaction is Written by way of conference, and sent out into the world for the sake of those who have long groped upon the tops of the dark mountains, where the barrennesse and emptinesse is, without the knowledge of the true light to be their guide, that they (as in a glass) may see themselves, and read what hath been the cause why they have so long sought, and not found that they have sought for. Given forth especially for the sake of the scattered people in America, by one who labors for and waits to see the elect gathered from the four quarters of the earth, known by the name of Richard Pinder.	Pinder, Richard, d. 1695.	1660 (1660)	Wing P2262; ESTC R219448	16,995	45

to_o give_v peace_n as_o ever_o it_o be_v to_o trouble_v and_o condemn_v i_o when_o i_o have_v commit_v unrighteousness_n and_o as_o i_o remember_v thou_o tell_v i_o it_o be_v able_a to_o keep_v and_o preserve_v i_o out_o of_o all_o the_o snare_n and_o temptation_n of_o the_o wicked_a one_o which_o thing_n have_v not_o be_v count_v credible_a by_o either_o teacher_n or_o people_n among_o who_o i_o have_v walk_v but_o we_o have_v rather_o cry_v out_o as_o heresy_n and_o blasphemy_n that_o any_o shall_v say_v they_o be_v free_a from_o sin_n in_o this_o life_n but_o indeed_o since_o i_o fall_v into_o conference_n with_o thou_o and_o that_o thou_o have_v inform_v i_o to_o this_o light_n within_o and_o that_o by_o it_o i_o feel_v my_o understanding_n somewhat_o open_v i_o dare_v not_o judge_v it_o as_o a_o thing_n unpossible_a but_o that_o people_n may_v be_v thorough_o wash_v and_o cleanse_v by_o the_o blood_n of_o jesus_n from_o all_o sin_n and_o unrighteousness_n while_o hear_v upon_o earth_n that_o if_o it_o shall_v please_v the_o lord_n to_o open_v thy_o mouth_n to_o inform_v i_o any_o further_a i_o shall_v glad_o lend_v a_o ear_n inform._n well_o be_v thou_o see_v the_o cause_n why_o thy_o sin_n have_v so_o prevail_v against_o thou_o have_v be_v because_o thou_o have_v not_o take_v heed_n to_o the_o light_n which_o show_v thou_o when_o temptation_n do_v arise_v in_o thy_o own_o heart_n and_o see_v thou_o have_v receive_v some_o encouragement_n for_o the_o time_n to_o come_v to_o take_v heed_n unto_o it_o namely_o the_o light_n which_o i_o do_v inform_v thou_o unto_o which_o have_v show_v thou_o thy_o own_o darkness_n now_o that_o thou_o may_v mind_v thy_o own_o condition_n i_o perceive_v that_o be_v safe_a for_o thou_o and_o not_o to_o seek_v to_o comprehend_v thing_n in_o thy_o own_o wisdom_n but_o wait_v to_o feel_v thyself_o comprehend_v into_o the_o light_n which_o thou_o tell_v i_o at_o our_o first_o enter_v into_o conference_n thou_o have_v a_o desire_n to_o be_v free_v into_o for_o consider_v darkness_n be_v that_o which_o thou_o have_v be_v captivate_v by_o and_o light_n be_v that_o which_o have_v be_v hide_v from_o thy_o eye_n but_o now_o thou_o find_v it_o somewhat_o open_v thy_o understanding_n it_o be_v safe_a for_o thou_o to_o abide_v in_o it_o and_o not_o to_o reach_v at_o thing_n above_o thy_o measure_n lest_o thou_o be_v beguile_v and_o deceive_v again_o for_o as_o i_o tell_v thou_o before_o thy_o strength_n sufficiency_n and_o ability_n in_o the_o measure_n of_o light_n which_o thou_o say_v in_o some_o measure_n have_v open_v thy_o understanding_n that_o if_o thou_o go_v before_o it_o thou_o go_v from_o thy_o strength_n and_o stay_n and_o then_o the_o enemy_n which_o thou_o have_v be_v so_o long_o captivate_v by_o he_o can_v toss_v thy_o mind_n and_o lead_v thou_o what_o way_n it_o please_v he_o so_o in_o short_a thy_o profit_v unto_o god_n stand_v in_o thy_o own_o measure_n of_o light_n receive_v from_o christ_n for_o abide_v in_o it_o thou_o will_v see_v more_o light_n and_o witness_v the_o daystar_n arise_v in_o thy_o heart_n which_o will_v be_v more_o joy_n gladness_n comfort_n and_o satisfaction_n unto_o thy_o soul_n than_o ever_o thou_o taste_v of_o while_o thou_o follow_v such_o teacher_n and_o walk_v among_o such_o people_n that_o cry_v heresy_n and_o blasphemy_n that_o any_o shall_v expect_v to_o be_v free_v from_o sin_n in_o this_o life_n for_o thou_o may_v remember_v while_o thou_o walk_v among_o such_o that_o thou_o be_v whole_o in_o darkness_n for_o thy_o ear_n be_v stop_v at_o the_o cry_n of_o the_o light_n which_o now_o in_o some_o measure_n have_v open_v thy_o understanding_n that_o thou_o dare_v not_o judge_v that_o be_v impossible_a but_o that_o they_o which_o believe_v may_v be_v cleanse_v thorough_o by_o the_o blood_n of_o jesus_n therefore_o it_o be_v none_o but_o such_o teacher_n and_o people_n that_o call_v the_o light_a natural_a such_o thou_o tell_v i_o thou_o do_v adhere_v unto_o in_o the_o time_n when_o thou_o be_v so_o toss_v from_o mountain_n to_o hill_n that_o cry_v heresy_n and_o blasphemy_n that_o any_o shall_v say_v they_o be_v free_v from_o sin_n in_o this_o life_n but_o now_o thy_o understanding_n be_v somewhat_o open_v by_o the_o true_a light_n thou_o see_v all_o thing_n possible_a with_o god_n but_o while_o thou_o stand_v whole_o in_o that_o nature_n which_o hate_v the_o light_n thou_o be_v in_o the_o unbelief_n and_o so_o judge_v according_a to_o thy_o blindness_n and_o as_o thou_o see_v it_o be_v in_o thyself_o and_o measure_v the_o saint_n condition_n by_o thy_o own_o as_o paul_n and_o other_o that_o thou_o know_v full_a well_o those_o teacher_n and_o people_n that_o hate_v the_o light_n which_o christ_n have_v enlighten_v every_o one_o withal_o and_o call_v it_o natural_a that_o they_o can_v believe_v any_o such_o thing_n that_o any_o shall_v be_v whole_o cleanse_v from_o sin_n while_o here_o upon_o earth_n but_o account_v it_o as_o delusion_n that_o any_o shall_v have_v such_o a_o faith_n in_o they_o that_o they_o may_v be_v whole_o cleanse_v but_o little_o i_o hope_v i_o need_v to_o say_v unto_o thou_o concern_v they_o for_o thou_o know_v well_o thyself_o upon_o what_o a_o bad_a foundation_n thy_o faith_n stand_v while_o thou_o follow_v such_o teacher_n and_o walk_v among_o such_o people_n videlicet_fw-la such_o as_o cry_v heresy_n and_o blasphemy_n that_o any_o shall_v say_v they_o witness_v freedom_n from_o sin_n while_o here_o upon_o earth_n captive_n i_o hope_v the_o lord_n will_v further_o show_v i_o the_o thing_n which_o long_o i_o have_v seek_v after_o for_o this_o now_o i_o plain_o see_v that_o my_o profit_v unto_o god_n stand_v only_o in_o the_o measure_n of_o light_n which_o christ_n have_v enlighten_v i_o withal_o and_o also_o the_o lord_n through_o his_o tender_a mercy_n with_o the_o day_n from_o on_o high_a by_o which_o he_o have_v visit_v i_o have_v let_v i_o see_v that_o the_o cause_n of_o all_o this_o my_o want_n have_v be_v that_o i_o have_v not_o mind_v my_o own_o condition_n but_o have_v rather_o seek_v to_o comprehend_v thing_n in_o my_o earthly_a wisdom_n which_o now_o i_o see_v be_v foolishness_n with_o god_n and_o have_v separate_v i_o from_o the_o knowledge_n of_o his_o way_n that_o i_o be_v not_o like_a to_o see_v into_o those_o thing_n which_o do_v pertain_v unto_o life_n eternal_a neither_o into_o the_o saint_n condition_n which_o i_o read_v on_o in_o the_o scripture_n because_o i_o know_v not_o a_o measure_n of_o this_o light_n within_o to_o be_v my_o guide_n which_o now_o i_o see_v the_o scripture_n be_v speak_v forth_o from_o and_o remain_v as_o dark_a say_n unto_o i_o and_o all_o man_n until_o our_o understanding_n come_v to_o be_v open_v by_o the_o true_a light_n which_o lead_v to_o the_o fulfil_n of_o they_o for_o as_o thou_o say_v while_n my_o ear_n be_v stop_v against_o the_o cry_n of_o the_o true_a light_n than_o i_o measure_v the_o saint_n condition_n and_o judge_v of_o they_o according_a to_o my_o own_o darkness_n for_o the_o faith_n i_o be_v in_o or_o rather_o unbelief_n give_v i_o no_o victory_n over_o my_o sin_n in_o that_o i_o do_v not_o believe_v in_o the_o light_n which_o christ_n have_v enlighten_v i_o withal_o though_o i_o profess_v faith_n in_o he_o and_o do_v strive_v many_o time_n within_o myself_o to_o believe_v that_o all_o my_o sin_n past_a and_o to_o come_v be_v do_v away_o in_o he_o yet_o still_o this_o light_n which_o come_v from_o he_o namely_o christ_n and_o shine_v into_o my_o own_o conscience_n do_v show_v i_o that_o my_o sin_n be_v stand_v and_o be_v unblot_v out_o and_o that_o i_o be_v a_o enemy_n in_o my_o mind_n unto_o his_o life_n in_o that_o sin_n be_v bring_v forth_o and_o that_o with_o my_o mind_n i_o serve_v it_o and_o as_o thou_o say_v my_o faith_n stand_v upon_o a_o unsound_a foundation_n as_o i_o now_o plain_o see_v for_o it_o be_v gather_v from_o without_o i_o and_o not_o from_o any_o knowledge_n of_o christ_n make_v manifest_a within_o i_o the_o hope_n of_o my_o glory_n but_o be_v whole_o build_v upon_o my_o own_o
