Covenant with the house of Israel and the house of Judah Mark a new covenant with the House of Israel and Judah was Ch●ist the light So they that hold up the first covenant and come not to the new they was unconverted for those was out of the light so out of the light out of conversion and I le give him for a covenant of light to the Gentiles to enlighten them so the Gentiles being in the light in the covenant the Jews in the light in the covenant they are both one with the Father and this throws down the partition wall betwixt Jew and Gentile and brings them to be both one in the covenant in the light and both one out of the covenant out of the light and to measure the Jew and the Gentile out of the light out of the covenant the Gentile shall judge the Jew and make his circumcision uncircumcision for the Jews having the Law of God and was commanded to do such things according to the Law and did not do them the Gentiles doing by nature the things contained in the Law shewing the Law of God written in their hearts without an outward command so it was by Nature for that which may be known of God was man●fest in them for God shewed it unto them which when they acted contrary to it they knew the judgements of the Lord did come upon them so the Jews here having the Law in the letter and was transgressors of the law of the outward he who acts contrary to that of God within him and the Gentiles who acted according to that of God in him fulfilled the Law this judged the Jew so the one was a command as in time and the other was not as a command but he did it by nature so according to the Apostles natural son So you that stumble and say Christ Jesus doth not enlighten every one that cometh into the world that all men might believe Mark God said he would give him for a light for a covenant to enlighten the Gentiles and those was called Heathen and God said I le make a new covenant with the House of Israel These were called the people of God and Christ was this covenant of light to the Jews and to the Gentiles and the Jews not believing in this covenant nor the Gentiles they were both in the unconversion and John a man sent from God to bear witness to the true light he said he was not the light but said This was the true light that did enlighten every one that cometh into the world and in Christ was life and the life was the light of men Ma●k the light of men and the light shined in darkness and the darkness comprehended it not This was he that was in the world and the world knew him not though all things was made by him and this was he that John came a witness of that all men through him might believe and this the true light that doth enlighten every man that cometh into the world which light shineth in darkness and da●kness comprehendeth it not Now mark it is there What Doth it shine in darkness and darkness comprehendeth it not Is not this the state that the world knew h●m not nor the Pharisees knew him not though the Kingdom of heaven was with●n them Luk● 17. and light shined in darkness and darkness comprehended it not Her●'s the unconverted estate so he came to his own and his own received him not light shines in darkness and darkness comprehends it not You were d●rkness saith the Apostle Eph. 5. but now are ye light in the Lord. 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
is light and John saith Light shines in darkness and darkness doth not comprehend it and the Apostle saith God hath commanded light to shine out of darkness so the light comprehendeth darkness and gives the light of the knowledge of God and the people of God that sate in darkness saw a light and to them that sate in the shaddow of death light is sprung up Here was the unconverted estate and the converted estate when they sate in darkness and the shaddow of death there 's the unconverted but them that was converted light was sprung up but darkness could not comprehend it Matth. 4. but who is come to witness the day Zachary speaks of that the light would not be clear nor dark but at the evening it shall be light This was the day when the living water was to go out from Jerusalem Zach. 14. who sees that which Habakuk saw Hab. 3. the glory of the Lord covered the earth whose glory was his praise whose brightness was as the light and the judgements of the Lord God and his Son are as the light that goeth forth for who acts contrary to the light God who is light his judgements are according to the light and are one with the l●ght and answers the light in every one Hosea 5. Lam. 3. he saw when he was broug●t out of the darkness into the light so there 's a time in darkness and a time out of darkness but he saw each condition who come under that which was transgress●d such as provokes the Lord to anger to such the Lord said he would take away their light of the candle such as transgress the ways of the Lord Ier. 25. but such as hears the word of the Lord they come to witness the state where they shall not need the light of the Sun nor the light of the Moon nor the light of a candle but who transgress the word of the Lord shall want the light of a candle so to the Law and the Testimony if they speak not according to this word it is because there is no light in them Mark how should they when they have transgressed it and loves darkness more then light and are gone from it so gone from the testimony which is the Spirit of Prophesie which is the testimony of Jesus and speaks not according to the word which is light in them so who are gone from the word are gone from the light and where the word is transgressed the light condems them for the light comes from the word Christ whose name is called the word of God which enlightneth every man that cometh into the world and the law is light and here 's the state of darkness where there 's no light in them which comprehended not the light which be in the transgression and there 's the place for the familiar spirit to enter Now if ye say the Letter be the Testimony and the Letter be the Law Isa 7. the Pharisees they had the Letter which stood against Christ the ligh● and they had ●he Law if that be the Law and if that be the word and they stood against Christ the light which had the words of the Law for mark them that have transgressed the light which is the Law they are from the testimony and they are from the light and then there 's no light in them and such was the Pharisees which professed the Scriptures and doth not believe in the light when it was come yet light shines in darkness but darkness doth not comprehend it and there 's that which is dead in sins and trespasses which before conversion must be quickned so the people that have walked in darkness have seen a great light and they that have dwelt in a land of the shaddow of death hath light shined I say and they who transgressed who were from the Law and the Testimony called darkness light and and put light for darkness this was the darkness which could not comprehend it in the Transgression now with the light these were comprehended The Prophet comprehended these who was not in the light and spake not according to the Word th●y spake not according to Christ which the Prophet said that God would give him for a covenant of light to the Gen●iles and to op●n the blind eyes and to bring out the prisoner from the prison and them that sate in darkness from the P●ison-house Ma●k what is the Prisoner must come out here that must come into covenant with God doth not the light come to shine out of darkness here where the Prisoner comes out and is he not in darkness till that I have long held my peace and have been still I w ll bring the blind by a way they know not and will lead them into paths that they have not known I will make their darkness light now you that a e bl●nd cannot comprehend the light such stands against the covenant of God and sees it not that be blind but such now ●he Lord God is come to lead to make darkness light and to lead them the way they have not known Isa 42. Moreover saith the Lord the light of the Moon shall be as the light of the Sun and the light of the Sun as the light of se●en days Isa 30. and saith the Lord is it a light thing that thou shouldest be as my servant to ra●se up the seed of J cob and to restore the preserved of Israel Mark to restore them here 's Covenant with God I will give thee for a light to the Gentiles that thou mayst be my salvation to the ends of the earth Mark Now you that say h● doth not enlighten every man that cometh into the wo●ld you see not the salvation of the ends of the earth Isa 49. who is among you that feareth the Lord and obeyeth the voice of his servant that walks in darkness and hath no light Mark that walks in darkness hath no light while he walks in darkness what l ght hath he there let him trust in the name of the Lord and stay upon his God then he stays upon the light but if he walks in darkness he goes from the light and whoso feareth the Lord and obeyeth the voice of his servant that will lead him out of darkness into the l●ght Isa 50. and such comes to find the help of God But such as walks in darkness goes from the light and fear of God and stays not upon the Lord and such comes to have no light for darkness cannot comprehend it though light shines in darkness yet darkness cannot comprehend it so they will put light for darkness and darkness for light which is comprehended with the light which reacheth to the light which shines in darkness Darkness shall cover the earth and gross darkness the people Mark cover and light shines in darkness but the Lord shall rise upon thee and his glory shall be seen in thee and the Gen iles shall come to thy light Arise shine for the
of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ these were them that were troubled on every side and had the treasure in earthen vessels and the excellency of the power of God in them which was which was not of the world and these were not of the world that told the Corinths the end of the world was come so this was a converted state so he hath enlightned every one that cometh into the world that all might believe and he that doth not believe is condemned already but so many as receives him he gives power to become the sons of God John was a burning and a shining light and many did rejoyce in that for a season but Christ had a greater witness then John and they received honour of men but Chri●t received not honour of men which enlightneth every m●n that cometh into the world neither doth the light which they are enlightned withal rec●ive honour of men and saith Jesus Christ who doth enlighten every man that cometh into the world the Prophets had prophesied that God would give him for a Covenant of light to the G ntiles and a new covenant to the house of Israel and salva●ion to the ends of the earth a●d John was s●nt to bear witness to the light and said he was the true light that did enlighten every one that cometh into the wo ld when Christ Jesus the covenant of light to the Gentiles and glory of Israel was come into the world saith he I am c●me a light into the world he that follows me shall not walk in darkness but shall have the light of life Iohn 8. Now he that follows not the l●ght abides in darkness and they that were sea●ching the Scriptures and thought to have life there and would not come to Christ the life they had not the word of God abiding in them neither heard they the voice of the Father at any time nor see his shape These were them that professed the Scriptures but in the transgression of the life that gave them forth and John writ to the converted and told them the darkness was past and the true light shined Mark here 's a time they were in darkness and a t me when light shined in darkness in the unconv●rted state and a time when light shined out of darkness in the converted estate He that saith he is in the light and h●teth his brother is in da kness until now He that hates the light is in darkness out of the light out of covenant in the enmity he that loves his brother abides in the light and there is no occasion of stumbling in him but he that walks in darkness is he that hates his brother and knows not whither he goes because darkness hat● blinded his eyes 1 John 2. and this was the message the Sain●s declared that God was light and in him was no darkness at all Now whosoever saith he hath fellowship with God and walks in darkness is a lyar and doth not the truth for the truth is in the l ght out of darkness 1 John 1. and the Apostle tells them that was of the Royal Priesthood that was the chosen generation an holy Nation a peculiar people that they was called out of darkness into his marvellous light mark out of darkness there was a time they was in it that light shined in darkness which while they was in darkness they could not shew forth their fruits to the praise and glory of God but being called out of darkness into the light which comprehends darkness 1 Pet 2. and so such as are stumbling at the light which enlightneth every ma● that cometh into the world are stumbling at every good and perfect gift which cometh down from above from the Father of light with whom there is no variableness nor shadow of changing Jam. 1. the night is far spent and the day at hand l●t us therefore put off the works of darkness and put on the true light which witness the night far spent and the day at hand that was to put off the works of darkness and put on the Armor of light the light is the Armor that which manifests the works of darkness and the night is the light and that is the Armor Rom. 13. The J ws stood against the light when the Apostles preached Christ Jesus therefore saith he to them that had the Scriptures shewing to them what the Prophets had said I have sent thee a light to the Gentil●s and salvation to the ends of the earth Acts 13. when the Gentiles heard this th●y were glad Now the Professors of this age which are wrangling against the light they are wrangling against the salvation for the same which is a light to the heathen is salvation yea to the ends of the earth and Christ saith to the Pharisee● Take heed that the light that be in thee be not darkness Now the Pharisees did not own Christ the light so they was in the state Isaiah speaks of that put light for darkness and darkness for light and which John sp aks of which light shined in darkness which darkness could not comprehend yet no man when he hath lighted a candle putteth it in a secret place neither under a bushel but on a candlestick that they may come to see the light they was to ligh● the lamp Exod. 25. Numb 8. Aaron was to light the Lamp the seven lamps shall give light o●er against the Candlestick and Christ saith let your lights be girded about and your lights burning Mark the substance Luke 12. The Philistims sought to quench the light of Israel so them that be in the same natu●e now do and war against it 2 Sam. 21. the Lord had promised to his people a light 2 Kings 8. which the wicked hates and wherefore is light given to him that is in misery saith Job Now he that is in misery hath light given to him you may see Job 3. and why is light given to him whose way is hid to bring him into the ways of God it is the way and therefore it is given to him and therefore his way is hid a land of darkness and the shadow of death without order wh●re the light is as darkness in that land as it is in this which is stumbling at it Job 10. they grope in the darkness without light which are hating it but God discovereth the deep things out of darkness and bringeth to light the shadow of death Job 12. and Bildad said the light of the wicked shall be put out the light shall be dark in his Tabeanacle and his candle sh●ll be put out with him and he shall be driven from the light into darkness and chased out of the world of whom Job said How long will ye vex my soul and told them they had reproched him the light going from it condemns out of the everlasting world and he goes into the world of wickedness and upon whom doth not the light arise saith
light is come and the glory of the Lord is risen then shall thy l ght break forth as the morning and thy light speedily and thy righteousness shall go before thee and the Sun shall be no more thy light by day nor the Moon give light to thee but the Lord God sh●ll be thy everlasting light here 's conversion thy light riseth in obscurity and thy darkness shall be as the Noon-day read that condition here 's conversion again Isa 58. and 60. such as came out of bondage out of captivity out of transgression the Lord had enlightned them and given them a nail in h s holy Place Mark a nail a fastning Mark and read what a nail doth but such as be in the captivity transgression and bondage darkness covering therefore light shineth and darkness comprehendeth it not thou wilt save the afflicted and b●ing down the proud Look thou wilt lighten my candle oh Lord and enlighten my darkness Mark as the afflicted is saved proud looks is brought down the candle is lighted and there 's enlightning of darkness Mark the enlightning of darkness that l ght sees over it Psal 10. and they look'd to the Lord and unto him and were enlightned Mark as there 's a looking to the Lord there 's an enlightning yea which makes the face to shine Psal 34. but looking from the Lord and going from the light and ●ates it he goes into darkness and there he stumbles if it be at Noon-day they were stumbling when Christ was among them the Pharisees the Scribes the Jews which had Scriptures but were darkness and in darkness and the light shined in them but they could not comprehend it and the kingdom of heaven was within them but they were observing it to come Lo here and lo there and of David according to the flesh Christ came said his lightning enlightned the world and the earth saw and trembled Mark enlightned the world you will say he enlightens Saints but his light enlightens the world and the earth saw and trembled Psalm 97. He spread the cloud for a covering and fire to give light in the night Mark who be in the night there was fire to give th●m light in the night to stay upon whereby they m●ght stay upon the Lord which was to the children of Israel which had the figures of the everlasting substance Christ Je us the enterance of thy words giveth light Ma k the entrance of the words of God giveth light it is a true word but you see the Pharisees had the words and the mind that transgressed so they hated the light Christ they that had received the words from others but the enterance of the words received from God giveth light if I say surely the darkness shall cover me even the night shall be light about me yea the darkness hideth not from thee take notice of this but the night shineth as the day the darkness and the light are both alike to thee for the Lord sees over it who is one with the light that shines in darkness Psal 139. ye are the light of the world saith Christ who saith he was the light of the world said his Disciples was the light of the world Mark the light of it a City set on a hill that cannot be hid neither do men light a candle and put it under a bushel but on a candlestick and is giveth light to all that be in the house let the light so shine before men that they may see your good works and glorifie your father which is in heaven here they answer the light which every man is enlightned withal that are the light of the wo ld which makes them to glo●ifie their father which is in heaven and think not saith Christ that I come to destroy the Law but to fulfil it Matth. 6. the paths of the just are as the shining light which shineth more and more to the perfect day the way of the wicked is as darkness and they know not at what they stumble at Prov. 4. the light of the righteous rejoyced but the lamp of the wicked sha●l be put out Mark he goes from it who hates light and transgresseth and abideth not in it and so hath not God Prov. 13. the poor and the deceitful man meets together and the Lord lightens both their eyes Now mark here is the poor and the deceitful man ●oth enl●ghtened but he that doth ev●l leaves the light and doth not come to it because his deeds are evil and that is his condemnation And you that say the wicked man is not enl●ghtned the deceitful man is not enlightned you deny the Scripture read Prov. 29. and I say that wisdom did excel folly as light darkness Eccles 2. Mark and know this light and know this wisdom that excels folly and darkness and com●rehends it which gives to see the salvation Christ Jesus the light of the world that doth enlighten every man that cometh in●o the world the Covenant of God to the Jews and Gentiles and salvation to the ends of the earth so he that believes in the ligh● shall not abide in darkness but shall have the light of life and he that believeth in the light shall become a child of light and Christ the Saviour of the world doth enlighten every man that cometh into the world and this light from him will let every man see his salvation which believ●ng in the light receives power to become the Son of God but hating the light it is his condemnation and he doth enlighten all men that c●meth into the world that all might believe this is his end but he that doth not believe is condemned and this is his condemnation the light that light is come into the world mark into ●he world he doth not say altogether in his Saints and men love darkness rather then the light mark men that darkness are in the world and hates the light and doth evil and will not come to the light left his deeds should be reproved but he that doth truth cometh to the light that his deeds may be manifest that they are wrought in God Now he loveth darkness because his deeds are evil and every one that doth evil hateth the light neither cometh to the light lest his deeds should be reproved mark th●se be of the world and hath these the light yea how should they know their evil deeds else and will not come to the light because the light will reprove them therefore men love darkness rather then the light for every one that doth evil hateth the light and this is his condemnation the light that doth enlighten every man that cometh into the world saith John he doth not say every Saint that cometh into the world but every man and light shineth in darkness and darkness doth not comprehend it Now the Apostle writes to the Corinths and told them God had commanded light to shine out of darkness which shined in their hearts which did give them the light
