A52725 What the possession of the living faith is, and the fruits thereof and wherein it hath been found to differ from the dead faith of the world, in the learning and following of Christ in the regeneration with an opening of light to all sorts of people that waits for the Kingdom of God, and a candle lighted to give the sight of the good old way of God, from the wayes that now ensnares the simple : also a message from the spirit of truth unto the holy seed who are chosen out of the world, and are lovers and followers of the light / written by J.N. in the time of his imprisonment, and now (the second time) published by a Friend.

be_v the_o estate_n of_o many_o at_o this_o day_n though_o some_o there_o be_v who_o conscience_n be_v fear_v and_o feel_v not_o this_o witness_n live_v in_o they_o though_o their_o damnation_n
