Walk as children of the light Now mark Here 's sometimes here is times of darkness but now they were light in the Lord. Now here was the converted and the unconverted and these were to have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness t●e light shines in darkness though darkness doth not comprehend it and ye are somtimes darkness and light shines in d●rkness and darkness doth not comprehend it there is the unconverted estate and the converted esta e an● God hath commanded light to shine out of da●kness and hath shined in our hear●s to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ Now mark here 's light shines out of darkn●ss God had commanded it to shine out of darkness What Was it not there then Now it is come forth before it was in darkness light shined in darkness and God hath commanded it to shine out of darkness and somtimes ye were darkness but are the light of the Lord which light that shines in the heart gives the light of the knowledge of the glory of God here 's the conver●ed estate Now while light shineth in darkness and darkness doth not comprehend it there 's the unconverted estate 2 Cor. 4. John 1. and the Apostle was sent to turn people from the darkness to the light from the power of Satan to God Now this was the estate of preaching to them while they were in darkness whom the God of the world ha●h blinded their eyes left the light of the glorious Gospel of Christ should shine in them Mark shine in them therefore the god of the world hath blinded the eye of the mind and to such the Gospel is hid for the light darkness cannot comprehend while the god of the world hath blinded your minds therefore the Apostle was sent to turn them from darkness to the light light shineth in darkness so the god of the world hath blinded them lest the light of the glorious Gospel should shine in them Now wh●re it shines in the heart it gives the knowledge of the glory of God where it comes fo●th now where it shines in darkness and darkness comprehends it not there 's the god of the world that hath blinded the mind and to such the Gospel is hid which is the power of God and the light of the glorious Gospel is not comprehended which is the Image of God and it doth not shine in them to give them the light of the knowledge of God Now such as are turned to the light the eye comes to be opened and from the darkness these comes and from the power of Satan the god of the world that hath blinded their eye that the light of the glorious Gospel shines in them to give them the light of the knowledge of the glory of God and to such the Gospel is not hid So by the manifestation of the Truth commending our selves to every mans conscience in the sight of God Now here 's the state not turned from the darkness to the light and their eye is not opened then the god of the world hath blinded them Such be in the unconverted estate to such the Gospel is hid though light shines in darkness and the god of the world blinds their minds so this is the time they are darkness not turned from the da●kness and the darkness doth not comprehend
