this_o effect_n john_n moon_n say_v that_o whosoever_o be_v not_o eternal_a be_v external_a and_o that_o god_n only_o be_v eternal_a i_o say_v that_o the_o devil_n be_v not_o external_a and_o therefore_o eternal_a as_o it_o do_v follow_v from_o thy_o own_o word_n and_o i_o do_v then_o explain_v my_o meaning_n thus_o i_o do_v not_o say_v he_o be_v a_o devil_n from_o eternity_n but_o through_o or_o by_o his_o forsake_v his_o first_o estate_n and_o habitation_n he_o become_v a_o devil_n and_o i_o ask_v thou_o whether_o thou_o will_v deny_v that_o the_o devil_n be_v eternal_a without_o end_n for_o it_o do_v follow_v from_o thy_o word_n before_o that_o he_o have_v a_o end_n in_o say_v that_o whatsoever_o be_v not_o eternal_a be_v external_a and_o that_o god_n only_o be_v eternal_a for_o that_o which_o be_v external_a will_v have_v a_o end_n so_o that_o one_o of_o those_o two_o thing_n will_v unavoidable_o follow_v that_o either_o the_o devil_n be_v mortal_a and_o will_v have_v a_o end_n as_o all_o external_a thing_n will_v have_v a_o end_n or_o else_o he_o be_v one_o with_o god_n which_o i_o deny_v that_o the_o devil_n be_v one_o with_o god_n see_v now_o the_o snare_n which_o thou_o have_v lay_v for_o i_o thyself_o be_v fall_v therein_o and_o whereas_o thou_o say_v that_o i_o will_v neither_o prove_v by_o scripture_n the_o devil_n to_o be_v eternal_a nor_o acknowledge_v that_o i_o have_v tell_v a_o lie_n i_o refuse_v to_o prove_v he_o to_o be_v a_o devil_n from_o eternity_n as_o thou_o will_v have_v i_o the_o which_o i_o neither_o do_v speak_v nor_o mean_v but_o i_o offer_v to_o prove_v he_o to_o be_v endless_a i_o mean_v by_o the_o word_n eternal_a a_o thing_n which_o endure_v for_o ever_o as_o angel_n and_o soul_n of_o man_n and_o not_o always_o that_o eternal_a invisible_a unchangeable_a the_o only_a wise_a god_n who_o comprehend_v all_o thing_n and_o nothing_o can_v comprehend_v he_o and_o to_o say_v that_o any_o thing_n else_o be_v so_o be_v blasphemy_n nothing_o be_v unchangeable_a but_o god_n nothing_o only_o wise_a but_o the_o eternal_a god_n but_o angel_n and_o the_o soul_n of_o man_n do_v change_v their_o estate_n and_o condition_n yet_o that_o do_v not_o dissolve_v they_o angel_n become_v devil_n and_o man_n become_v sinner_n the_o soul_n that_o sin_v shall_v die_v and_o he_o have_v make_v his_o soul_n a_o sacrifice_n for_o sin_n there_o be_v a_o natural_a death_n and_o there_o be_v a_o spiritual_a death_n a_o die_a life_n and_o a_o live_a death_n and_o as_o thou_o say_v that_o the_o devil_n shall_v be_v cast_v into_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n that_o be_v true_a but_o that_o do_v not_o prove_v he_o to_o be_v external_a or_o to_o have_v a_o end_n that_o do_v prove_v a_o change_n of_o condition_n and_o not_o a_o dissolution_n or_o to_o have_v a_o end_n do_v thou_o know_v from_o whence_o or_o what_o be_v the_o root_n from_o whence_o the_o angel_n and_o soul_n of_o man_n come_v thou_o say_v that_o thou_o be_v come_v to_o the_o beginning_n if_o it_o have_v be_v true_a thou_o shall_v do_v have_v see_v the_o end_n also_o and_o that_o between_o and_o concern_v that_o which_o thou_o call_v a_o reply_n unto_o a_o answer_n of_o hugh_n evans_n and_o myself_o in_o which_o thou_o say_v that_o the_o first_o principle_n of_o pure_a religion_n be_v before_o transgression_n be_v not_o this_o thy_o query_n what_o be_v the_o first_o principle_n of_o pure_a religion_n and_o i_o say_v that_o before_o transgression_n there_o be_v no_o need_n of_o faith_n nor_o religion_n but_o if_o it_o have_v be_v propound_v what_o be_v the_o first_o pure_a principle_n we_o shall_v have_v return_v you_o another_o answer_n but_o as_o the_o case_n stand_v now_o with_o man_n be_v a_o sinner_n we_o say_v with_o the_o apostle_n heb._n 6.1_o that_o it_o be_v repentance_n and_o whereas_o you_o say_v that_o we_o deny_v the_o testimony_n of_o john_n you_o do_v say_v amiss_o but_o we_o say_v with_o the_o prophet_n isai_n 8.20_o that_o if_o man_n speak_v not_o according_a to_o the_o word_n it_o be_v because_o there_o be_v no_o light_n in_o they_o john_n price_n now_o i_o be_o come_v brief_o to_o answer_v to_o that_o which_o john_n moon_n charge_v hugh_n evans_n and_o i_o with_o in_o his_o book_n entitle_v the_o true_a light_n have_v make_v manifest_a darkness_n john_n moon_n begin_v his_o book_n with_o a_o glorious_a title_n the_o true_a light_n have_v make_v manifest_a darkness_n but_o before_o he_o go_v any_o further_a his_o pen_n go_v right_a than_o his_o confuse_a mind_n for_o say_v he_o or_o zion_n build_v up_o before_o he_o say_v that_o babylon_n be_v throw_v down_o and_o true_a it_o be_v that_o such_o a_o zion_n may_v be_v be_v build_v up_o among_o they_o wherein_o a_o babylon_n be_v yet_o in_o they_o to_o be_v throw_v down_o for_o if_o ever_o there_o have_v be_v confusion_n among_o any_o people_n it_o be_v among_o they_o but_o know_v this_o that_o as_o babylon_n be_v throw_v down_o so_o be_v zion_n build_v up_o and_o not_o zion_n first_o build_v up_o and_o then_o babylon_n throw_v down_o he_o go_v on_o and_o say_v with_o a_o true_a answer_n to_o what_o the_o baptist_n teacher_n object_v against_o he_o as_o he_o call_v they_o but_o it_o be_v no_o answer_n to_o any_o one_o particular_a that_o they_o object_v against_o that_o i_o know_v of_o but_o to_o his_o own_o forge_a or_o conceit_a lie_n so_o go_v on_o and_o towards_o the_o latter_a end_n of_o page_n the_o first_o he_o fall_v to_o prayer_n and_o well_o he_o may_v record_v it_o for_o i_o think_v it_o be_v a_o work_n he_o do_v but_o seldom_o in_o his_o second_o page_n he_o begin_v to_o charge_n hugh_n evans_n with_o say_v that_o the_o true_a light_n shine_v but_o in_o some_o &_o not_o in_o all_o &_o back_n it_o with_o a_o lie_n in_o say_v that_o he_o can_v not_o prove_v it_o but_o he_o omit_v to_o speak_v the_o whole_a for_o when_o hugh_z evans_z and_o i_o do_v reason_n with_o he_o about_o the_o true_a light_n we_o do_v not_o use_v to_o answer_v hasty_o nor_o unadvised_o but_o do_v inquire_v to_o this_o effect_n there_o be_v the_o light_n of_o the_o sun_n which_o be_v a_o true_a light_n in_o its_o element_n also_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n be_v a_o true_a light_n rom._n 2.14_o for_o whatsoever_o make_v manifest_a be_v light_n and_o that_o law_n or_o light_n which_o be_v in_o man_n nature_n do_v make_v manifest_a sin_n therefore_o a_o true_a light_n but_o it_o be_v not_o that_o light_n which_o be_v speak_v of_o in_o john_n 1._o which_o be_v christ_n that_o he_o deni_v to_o be_v in_o every_o man_n he_o and_o i_o often_o deny_v somewhat_o to_o this_o effect_n that_o that_o true_a light_n shine_v or_o live_v not_o in_o every_o man_n as_o it_o do_v appear_v by_o our_o answer_n to_o their_o query_n for_o further_a proof_n of_o this_o that_o this_o be_v our_o negative_a or_o denial_n i_o direct_v you_o to_o their_o second_o query_n and_o our_o answer_n to_o it_o which_o be_v propound_v and_o answer_v about_o thirteen_o month_n before_o the_o appearance_n of_o john_n moon_n print_v paper_n entitle_v the_o true_a light_n have_v make_v manifest_a darkness_n he_o further_o say_v that_o hugh_n evans_n be_v demand_v to_o prove_v that_o this_o true_a light_n do_v not_o shine_v in_o every_o man_n but_o can_v not_o whereas_o hugh_n evans_n produce_v this_o scripture_n to_o make_v good_a his_o denial_n isai_n 8.20_o to_o the_o law_n and_o to_o the_o testimony_n and_o if_o they_o speak_v not_o according_a to_o this_o word_n it_o be_v because_o there_o be_v no_o light_n in_o they_o from_o this_o scripture_n hugh_n evans_n and_o other_o reason_v to_o this_o effect_n if_o all_o man_n do_v speak_v according_a to_o the_o word_n and_o testimony_n of_o god_n than_o the_o true_a light_n shine_v or_o live_v in_o all_o man_n but_o all_o man_n speak_v not_o according_a to_o the_o word_n and_o testimony_n of_o god_n therefore_o some_o man_n have_v not_o the_o true_a light_n shine_v or_o live_v in_o they_o he_o say_v further_a in_o his_o second_o page_n now_o see_v say_v he_o how_o contrary_a to_o the_o scripture_n he_o speak_v that_o will_v deny_v the_o testimony_n of_o john_n but_o i_o say_v that_o that_o man_n that_o will_v make_v john_n a_o false_a witness_n may_v well_o be_v rank_v with_o john_n moon_n but_o hugh_n evans_n do_v own_v it_o and_o
