rebellion_n and_o disobedience_n be_v the_o same_o which_o cause_v calmness_n stillness_n settlement_n and_o satisfaction_n and_o bring_v forth_o peaceable_a fruit_n of_o righteousness_n in_o our_o soul_n since_o we_o have_v believe_v &_o continue_v obedient_a thereto_o that_o very_a light_n which_o before_o convince_v reprove_v judge_v &_o condemn_v we_o for_o all_o unbelief_n and_o unrighteousness_n both_o in_o heart_n &_o life_n be_v still_o the_o same_o which_o do_v convert_v confirm_v cleanse_v justify_v and_o save_v yea_o that_o light_n which_o before_o shine_v in_o darkness_n and_o the_o darkness_n comprehend_v it_o not_o be_v but_o one_o and_o the_o same_o which_o after_o it_o be_v believe_v and_o obey_v do_v expel_v and_o lead_v out_o of_o darkness_n that_o the_o light_n which_o before_o be_v eclipse_v may_v now_o so_o shine_v before_o man_n that_o see_v our_o good_a work_n may_v glorify_v our_o father_n which_o be_v in_o heaven_n in_o the_o day_n of_o their_o visitation_n wherefore_o the_o love_n of_o christ_n constrain_v we_o thus_o to_o judge_v that_o the_o light_n of_o christ_n be_v in_o every_o man_n and_o woman_n who_o be_v able_a to_o save_v to_o the_o uttermost_a all_o that_o believe_v in_o he_o and_o obey_v he_o because_o when_o we_o be_v as_o vile_a as_o the_o worst_a of_o sinner_n we_o can_v witness_v that_o the_o same_o light_n which_o do_v then_o shine_v in_o darkness_n do_v now_o to_o the_o praise_n of_o god_n shine_v out_o of_o darkness_n whereof_o we_o be_v not_o ashamed_a 3._o because_o our_o lord_n jesus_n who_o can_v lie_v have_v say_v that_o man_n condemnation_n arise_v only_o from_o the_o contempt_n of_o and_o disobedience_n to_o this_o light_n say_v this_o be_v the_o condemnation_n light_n be_v come_v into_o
