A44794	The heart of New-England hardned through wickednes in answer to a book, entituled the Heart of New-England rent, published by John Norton appointed thereunto by the General Court. The doctrine of the Quakers uindicated [sic], his ignorance manifested, and his lying doctrines brought to light and judged with the word of truth, and truth cleared from his aspersions and slanders. By him that waits to see the throne of righteousness exalted above all deceit. Francis Howgill.	Howgill, Francis, 1618-1669.	1659 (1659)	Wing H3166; ESTC R223647	32,471	42

or_o against_o the_o light_n of_o the_o spirit_n must_v needs_o be_v sinful_a and_o then_o if_o it_o be_v as_o thou_o have_v say_v and_o if_o this_o must_v be_v the_o true_a sense_n of_o that_o

sinful_a and_o evil_a and_o yet_o thou_o have_v confess_v it_o will_v teach_v that_o none_o ought_v to_o lie_v or_o steal_v and_o to_o know_v one_o god_n and_o the_o creator_n and_o eternity_n and_o

be_v not_o these_o the_o deep_a thing_n of_o god_n and_o so_o b●bylon_n be_v the_o land_n of_o thy_o nativity_n and_o thou_o reel_v and_o stagger_v up_o and_o down_o like_o a_o drunken_a man_n and_o will_v be_v a_o teacher_n and_o know_v not_o whereof_o thou_o affirm_v nor_o of_o what_o thou_o speak_v further_o thou_o say_v that_o this_o little_a light_n there_o be_v be_v much_o miscarry_v and_o thy_o reason_n be_v because_o it_o be_v manage_v by_o the_o reign_a power_n of_o darkness_n and_o the_o judgement_n of_o man_n be_v corrupt_a and_o then_o thou_o go_v on_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n since_o the_o fall_n be_v not_o to_o be_v compare_v say_v thou_o with_o the_o light_n of_o the_o image_n of_o god_n before_o the_o fall_n and_o it_o have_v no_o proportion_n with_o gospel_n light_n but_o be_v gross_a darkness_n nay_o be_v worse_a than_o gross_a darkness_n answ._n and_o how_o do_v the_o light_n miscarry_v thou_o blindman_n and_o when_o do_v the_o reign_a power_n of_o darkness_n manage_v it_o see_v that_o there_o be_v no_o fellowship_n betwixt_o light_n and_o darkness_n and_o the_o light_n which_o every_o man_n be_v light_v with_o have_v bear_v witness_n against_o darkness_n and_o the_o reign_a power_n of_o it_o and_o though_o the_o judgement_n of_o man_n be_v corrupt_a his_o miscarriage_n be_v because_o he_o have_v not_o mind_v the_o light_n and_o because_o he_o have_v

and_o though_o thou_o say_v that_o the_o light_n which_o light_v every_o man_n be_v not_o compare_v with_o the_o light_n of_o the_o image_n of_o god_n before_o the_o fall_n and_o have_v no_o

because_o sin_n have_v enter_v and_o death_n by_o sin_n and_o that_o be_v it_o which_o obscure_v the_o image_n of_o god_n from_o man_n and_o its_o light_n yet_o the_o light_n shine_v in_o darkness_n but_o thou_o conclude_v it_o be_v darkness_n yea_o worse_o than_o gross_a darkness_n and_o thou_o bring_v a_o proof_n to_o prove_v it_o you_o be_v darkness_n the_o apostle_n do_v not_o say_v that_o the_o light_n which_o shine_v in_o darkness_n be_v darkness_n or_o worse_a than_o gross_a darkness_n as_o thou_o ignorant_o say_v but_o he_o say_v the_o ephesian_n or_o the_o man_n of_o ephesus_n be_v darkness_n and_o not_o the_o light_n in_o they_o which_o shine_v in_o darkness_n though_o the_o darkness_n comprehend_v it_o not_o but_o how_o now_o john_n norton_n what_o will_v the_o general_n court_n of_o boston_n say_v when_o they_o see_v thy_o confusion_n lay_v open_a and_o the_o deceit_n make_v manifest_a to_o thou_o and_o their_o shame_n and_o ignorance_n thou_o confess_v in_o the_o 16._o page_n that_o it_o will_v lead_v to_o know_v god_n and_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n and_o teach_v not_o to_o lie_v and_o steal_v and_o so_o forth_o and_o to_o discover_v some_o of_o god_n

and_o worse_o than_o gross_a darkness_n and_o so_o have_v make_v as_o bad_a if_o not_o worse_a than_o any_o principle_n that_o be_v in_o a_o beast_n and_o it_o may_v true_o be_v say_v of_o thou_o even_o in_o thy_o own_o phrase_n quanta_fw-la sub_fw-la nocte_fw-la jacebat_fw-la nostra_fw-la dies_fw-la but_o now_o thou_o come_v to_o a_o further_a interpretation_n of_o 1_o job_n 9_o and_o thou_o

but_o guess_n like_o a_o blind_a man_n and_o like_o a_o wild_a archer_n shoot_v at_o random_n and_o why_o do_v thou_o make_v such_o distinction_n betwixt_o the_o word_n the_o son_n of_o god_n and_o christ_n the_o son_n of_o god_n thou_o make_v but_o three_o person_n in_o the_o trinity_n before_o but_o it_o seem_v by_o thy_o argue_v thou_o will_v now_o make_v four_o and_o as_o for_o thy_o

son_n of_o god_n have_v not_o enlighten_v every_o man_n they_o confess_v the_o man_n in_o the_o fall_n be_v in_o darkness_n and_o darkness_n be_v over_o he_o and_o in_o that_o he_o be_v not_o able_a to_o comprehend_v the_o light_n which_o be_v in_o he_o and_o as_o to_o the_o improvement_n of_o it_o in_o the_o darkness_n man_n have_v not_o power_n to_o improve_v it_o to_o salvation_n but_o what_o

the_o light_n of_o life_n in_o its_o self_n though_o thou_o deny_v it_o i_o know_v what_o i_o speak_v for_o in_o he_o be_v life_n and_o be_v life_n and_o that_o life_n be_v the_o light_n of_o man_n and_o the_o light_n of_o the_o world_n and_o so_o that_o light_n which_o every_o man_n be_v light_v with_o be_v of_o the_o life_n and_o from_o the_o life_n and_o so_o may_v true_o be_v say_v to_o be_v the_o light_n of_o life_n in_o itself_o though_o man_n in_o the_o transgression_n do_v not_o feel_v it_o so_o as_o to_o he_o but_o may_v true_o say_v it_o be_v the_o light_n of_o condemnation_n because_o he_o feel_v it_o so_o

in_o the_o operation_n thereof_o be_v in_o the_o transgression_n it_o convict_v reprove_v accuse_v and_o condemn_v for_o evil_a and_o therefore_o it_o can_v be_v the_o light_n of_o life_n to_o he_o

the_o apostle_n speak_v well_o and_o understand_o according_a to_o knowledge_n that_o which_o be_v ordain_v for_o life_n wrought_v death_n in_o he_o that_o be_v because_o the_o law_n be_v against_o he_o and_o he_o in_o the_o contrary_a nature_n to_o it_o the_o ignorance_n of_o many_o wise_a man_n so_o account_v in_o this_o generation_n be_v such_o that_o when_o they_o see_v or_o feel_v contrary_a effect_n they_o judge_v there_o must_v needs_o be_v contrary_a subject_n or_o object_n because_o there_o be_v different_a effect_n for_o now_o the_o same_o light_n which_o show_v evil_a and_o accuse_v for_o it_o and_o judge_n for_o it_o there_o be_v one_o operation_n and_o excuse_v he_o that_o love_v it_o and_o obey_v it_o here_o be_v another_o operation_n that_o which_o convince_v

make_v the_o spring_n of_o life_n to_o bubble_n up_o in_o they_o that_o believe_v here_o be_v another_o operation_n yet_o the_o same_o christ_n these_o thing_n i_o write_v to_o inform_v thou_o and_o all_o where_o this_o may_v come_v that_o that_o be_v true_o a_o appearance_n of_o christ_n which_o show_v sin_n and_o condemn_v it_o in_o any_o measure_n and_o he_o alone_o be_v the_o judge_n of_o the_o quick_a and_o the_o dead_a and_o if_o all_o judgement_n be_v commit_v to_o the_o son_n then_o to_o be_v judge_v for_o lie_v for_o steal_v and_o for_o wrong_v any_o man_n it_o be_v the_o work_n of_o christ_n and_o the_o work_n of_o the_o son_n oh_o man_n thou_o have_v much_o to_o repent_v of_o and_o thy_o ignorance_n be_v great_a which_o have_v call_v christ_n the_o light_n or_o the_o light_n of_o christ_n or_o the_o light_n of_o life_n darkness_n and_o contradistinct_a to_o the_o spirit_n and_o worse_o than_o gross_a darkness_n so_o this_o be_v thy_o conclusion_n against_o the_o first_o of_o john_n and_o the_o 9_o that_o christ_n have_v not_o enlighten_v every_o man_n or_o all_o man_n that_o come_v into_o the_o world_n but_o all_o man_n so_o qualify_v of_o every_o sort_n so_o then_o by_o thy_o conclusion_n the_o first_o of_o john_n and_o the_o 9_o verse_n give_v a_o uncertain_a sound_n like_o the_o 17._o of_o john_n and_o 22_o so_o than_o its_o qualification_n of_o man_n that_o procure_v light_a from_o christ_n and_o so_o it_o be_v not_o of_o grace_n but_o of_o debt_n but_o if_o it_o be_v of_o debt_n which_o be_v owe_v unto_o a_o person_n so_o qualify_v than_o it_o be_v not_o of_o gift_n but_o thou_o err_v in_o thy_o judgement_n for_o it_o be_v by_o the_o gift_n of_o righteousness_n that_o justification_n come_v upon_o all_o that_o believe_v it_o be_v not_o this_o or_o that_o qualification_n before_o their_o conversion_n which_o be_v any_o cause_n of_o god_n enlighten_v they_o but_o it_o be_v the_o free_a love_n of_o god_n unto_o man_n without_o exception_n or_o respect_n of_o person_n that_o he_o have_v light_v every_o man_n to_o the_o intent_n that_o all_o and_o every_o man_n may_v see_v his_o error_n and_o depart_v from_o it_o and_o turn_v

christ_n be_v bind_v to_o give_v they_o light_n this_o be_v rank_a popery_n and_o not_o according_a to_o the_o doctrine_n of_o godliness_n and_o thou_o cite_v the_o 2_o pet._n 1._o 19_o we_o have_v
