A62877	True old light exalted above pretended new light, or, Treatise of Jesus Christ as He is the light which enlightens every one that comes into the world : against the sense both of the Quakers, Arminians, and other assertors of universal grace, whose light is proved to be darkness / delivered in nine sermons, by John Tombes, B.D., and commended to publick view by Mr. Richard Baxter.

darkness_n and_o that_o they_o know_v not_o the_o true_a light_n nor_o receive_v he_o whence_o we_o thus_o argue_v they_o have_v not_o a_o light_n within_o they_o sufficient_a to_o be_v a_o safe_a rule_n and_o guide_v to_o direct_v and_o warrant_v they_o in_o their_o way_n for_o please_a god_n who_o be_v darkness_n when_o the_o true_a light_n shine_v who_o know_v he_o not_o nor_o receive_v he_o for_o sure_o they_o that_o be_v such_o must_v be_v destitute_a of_o that_o light_n which_o may_v safe_o guide_v they_o who_o be_v so_o dark_a and_o ignorant_a as_o not_o to_o know_v the_o true_a light_n which_o enlighten_v every_o man_n but_o so_o it_o be_v with_o many_o even_o of_o the_o jew_n themselves_o when_o christ_n be_v in_o the_o world_n therefore_o they_o have_v not_o sufficient_a light_n in_o they_o and_o consequent_o none_o much_o less_o every_o man_n have_v a_o sufficient_a light_n to_o guide_v he_o safe_o in_o his_o way_n to_o god_n without_o the_o scripture_n and_o the_o

within_o they_o to_o be_v a_o safe_a and_o complete_a rule_n and_o guide_v to_o direct_v they_o in_o their_o way_n to_o please_v god_n and_o to_o warrant_v their_o action_n if_o they_o follow_v it_o who_o be_v darkness_n and_o who_o sit_v in_o darkness_n and_o in_o the_o region_n and_o shadow_n of_o death_n unless_o we_o will_v imagine_v that_o darkness_n be_v light_a and_o as_o the_o quaker_n do_v put_v darkness_n for_o light_n and_o light_n for_o darkness_n to_o who_o the_o prophet_n denounce_v woe_n isa._n 5._o 20._o but_o some_o there_o be_v afore_o christ_n and_o his_o apostle_n preach_v to_o they_o who_o be_v darkness_n who_o sit_v in_o darkness_n and_o in_o the_o region_n and_o shadow_n of_o death_n therefore_o every_o man_n have_v not_o a_o sufficient_a light_n within_o he_o to_o be_v a_o safe_a and_o complete_a rule_n and_o guide_v to_o direct_v he_o in_o his_o way_n to_o please_v god_n and_o to_o warrant_v his_o action_n if_o he_o follow_v it_o and_o if_o not_o then_o neither_o have_v we_o now_o 5._o arg._n from_o luk._n 16._o 8._o where_o our_o saviour_n say_v the_o child_n of_o this_o world_n be_v wise_a in_o their_o generation_n than_o the_o child_n of_o light_n the_o opposition_n of_o child_n of_o light_n to_o the_o child_n of_o this_o world_n show_v that_o the_o child_n of_o this_o world_n be_v not_o child_n of_o light_n and_o if_o they_o be_v the_o

man_n have_v a_o light_n within_o he_o sufficient_a to_o be_v his_o rule_n and_o guide_v of_o itself_o to_o direct_v he_o how_o to_o please_v god_n than_o every_o man_n shall_v be_v a_o child_n of_o

child_n of_o light_n therefore_o every_o man_n ha●h_v not_o a_o light_n safe_a and_o sufficient_a within_o he_o to_o guide_v he_o in_o his_o way_n to_o god_n and_o to_o be_v the_o complete_a rule_n of_o his_o action_n godward_o 6._o arg._n be_v from_o act._n 26._o 18._o where_o paul_n say_v christ_n send_v he_o to_o the_o gentile_n to_o open_v their_o eye_n and_o to_o turn_v they_o from_o

they_o who_o be_v to_o be_v turn_v from_o darkness_n to_o light_n call_v by_o god_n out_o of_o darkness_n into_o his_o marvellous_a light_n who_o be_v to_o awake_v and_o stand_v up_o from_o the_o

darkness_n to_o be_v light_n man_n among_o the_o dead_a fit_a to_o guide_v themselves_o but_o so_o it_o be_v say_v of_o both_o jew_n and_o gentile_n in_o those_o scripture_n therefore_o sure_o they_o have_v not_o such_o a_o light_n within_o they_o as_o quaker_n say_v be_v in_o all_o if_o they_o have_v such_o a_o light_n they_o shall_v have_v be_v direct_v to_o follow_v it_o not_o turn_v from_o it_o the_o apostle_n shall_v have_v call_v they_o as_o the_o quaker_n do_v to_o follow_v the_o light_n in_o they_o and_o not_o have_v call_v they_o out_o of_o darkness_n nor_o require_v they_o to_o awake_v and_o stand_v up_o from_o the_o dead_a that_o christ_n may_v give_v they_o light_v nor_o shall_v we_o do_v as_o the_o apostle_n do_v bid_v man_n leave_v the_o darkness_n in_o they_o but_o as_o the_o quaker_n do_v look_v to_o the_o light_n in_o they_o 7._o arg._n from_o rom._n 10._o 14_o 17._o how_o then_o shall_v they_o call_v on_o he_o in_o who_o they_o have_v not_o believe_v and_o how_o shall_v they_o believe_v in_o he_o of_o who_o they_o have_v not_o hear_v and_o how_o shall_v they_o hear_v without_o a_o preacher_n so_o then_o faith_n come_v by_o hear_v and_o hear_v by_o the_o

not_o sufficient_a to_o guide_v we_o to_o god_n that_o be_v not_o sufficient_a to_o beget_v faith_n since_o there_o be_v no_o come_n to_o god_n without_o faith_n as_o be_v tell_v we_o heb._n 11._o

how_o shall_v they_o bear_v without_o a_o preacher_n so_o then_o faith_n come_v by_o hear_v and_o hear_v by_o the_o word_n of_o god_n which_o be_v vain_a speech_n if_o there_o be_v another_o
