A58143	Light sown for the righteous, and gladness for the upright in heart This is to go abroad among all people who are honest-hearted, especially amongst the inhabitants in Fourns Fells, in Lancashire, and among all who have known me after the flesh, that all honest people may see what I was in profession, and also what I now am by the grace of God. From him which hath come through great tribulations, who hath even left all for Christ, and hath not whereon to lay his head, but is forsaken of father and of mother, and of kinred also, even for the testimony of Jesus, and for the Word of God, whom the world calls, Thomas Rawlinson.

captivity_n come_v to_o be_v lead_v captive_a and_o the_o strong_a man_n shall_v then_o be_v cast_v out_o of_o the_o house_n and_o his_o good_n too_o when_o christ_n who_o be_v strong_a than_o he_o

they_o know_v that_o their_o faith_n be_v never_o impute_v to_o they_o for_o righteousness_n from_o god_n so_o what_o be_v this_o to_o they_o or_o to_o the_o r_o people_n to_o talk_v of_o a_o impute_a

be_v impute_v to_o he_o for_o righteousness_n but_o what_o be_v this_o to_o the_o priest_n and_o to_o their_o follower_n who_o know_v not_o abraham_n faith_n which_o be_v make_v perfect_a by_o work_v for_o faith_n without_o work_v be_v dead_a if_o a_o man_n say_v he_o have_v faith_n and_o have_v not_o work_v can_v faith_n save_v he_o be_v not_o abraham_n justify_v by_o work_v when_o be_v offer_v

for_o every_o tree_n be_v know_v by_o his_o fruit_n a_o good_a tree_n can_v bring_v forth_o evil_a fruit_n neither_o can_v a_o evil_a tree_n bring_v forth_o good_a fruit_n so_o we_o know_v the_o

render_v of_o all_o people_n useless_a who_o out_o of_o the_o evil_a treasure_n of_o their_o heart_n bring_v forth_o that_o which_o be_v evil_a so_o they_o be_v evil_a know_v not_o to_o give_v good_a

speak_v not_o in_o contempt_n unto_o any_o but_o will_v take_v people_n off_o put_v trust_n in_o man_n and_o that_o they_o may_v come_v to_o know_v the_o lord_n and_o in_o he_o to_o trust_v that_o all_o may_v come_v to_o be_v teach_v of_o the_o lord_n that_o he_o may_v teach_v they_o himself_o of_o his_o way_n who_o teach_v his_o people_n to_o profit_n and_o this_o be_v my_o end_n to_o turn_v all_o unto_o christ_n the_o light_n who_o lighten_v every_o man_n and_o that_o people_n may_v try_v their_o priest_n by_o their_o fruit_n for_o if_o they_o be_v of_o the_o good_a tree_n they_o can_v not_o bring_v forth_o evil_a fruit_n and_o do_v this_o offend_v either_o priest_n or_o people_n to_o exhort_v all_o to_o try_v they_o by_o their_o fruit_n and_o to_o turn_v from_o they_o that_o bring_v forth_o evil_a fruit_n unto_o the_o light_n of_o christ_n in_o they_o who_o lighten_v every_o man_n that_o come_v into_o the_o world_n that_o they_o may_v come_v to_o be_v engraft_v into_o christ_n that_o in_o he_o they_o may_v come_v to_o bring_v forth_o good_a fruit_n if_o they_o abide_v in_o the_o light_n and_o walk_v in_o the_o light_n as_o he_o be_v in_o the_o light_n they_o can_v bring_v forth_o evil_a fruit_n for_o he_o that_o abide_v in_o christ_n the_o light_n sin_v not_o but_o out_o of_o the_o good_a treasure_n of_o his_o heart_n bring_v forth_o that_o which_o be_v good_a so_o i_o say_v my_o end_n be_v that_o all_o both_o priest_n and_o people_n may_v come_v to_o repentance_n and_o every_o man_n come_v to_o be_v ashamed_a of_o his_o own_o way●s_n that_o they_o have_v choose_v and_o so_o every_o one_o both_o priest_n and_o people_n may_v return_v unto_o christ_n the_o light_n who_o lighten_v every_o man_n and_o will_v not_o the_o death_n of_o a_o sinner_n but_o will_v have_v all_o man_n both_o priest_n and_o people_n to_o be_v save_v and_o to_o come_v to_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o truth_n who_o be_v set_v for_o salvation_n to_o the_o end_n of_o the_o earth_n that_o all_o people_n may_v come_v to_o the_o light_n and_o to_o the_o brightness_n of_o his_o rise_n both_o priest_n and_o people_n that_o so_o all_o may_v come_v to_o be_v teach_v of_o the_o lord_n who_o teach_v his_o people_n to_o profit_n that_o so_o none_o may_v follow_v after_o a_o people_n which_o can_v profit_v the_o priest_n if_o they_o be_v of_o the_o good_a tree_n which_o can_v bring_v forth_o evil_a fruit_n will_v not_o be_v ashamed_a to_o be_v try_v by_o their_o fruit_n but_o they_o be_v of_o the_o evil_a tree_n which_o can_v bring_v forth_o good_a fruit_n be_v ashamed_a to_o have_v their_o deed_n bring_v to_o the_o light_n neither_o will_v they_o come_v to_o the_o light_n to_o prove_v their_o call_n and_o minister-ship_n before_o the_o people_n lest_o they_o shall_v have_v shame_n of_o their_o doctrine_n and_o practice_n before_o all_o the_o people_n their_o practice_n be_v contrary_a to_o all_o the_o holy_a prophet_n and_o apostle_n of_o christ_n so_o it_o be_v plain_a they_o be_v of_o the_o evil_a tree_n which_o bring_v forth_o evil_a fruit_n can_v profit_v the_o people_n at_o all_o so_o the_o people_n who_o follow_v they_o be_v ever_o learning_n yet_o never_o able_a to_o come_v to_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o truth_n by_o they_o so_o while_o i_o follow_v the_o priest_n though_o i_o diligent_o inquire_v unto_o they_o after_o the_o lord_n yet_o i_o find_v he_o not_o because_o i_o seek_v unto_o a_o people_n which_o can_v not_o profit_v therefore_o i_o do_v not_o attain_v to_o the_o thing_n which_o i_o seek_v for_o unto_o they_o so_o turn_v from_o they_o find_v no_o profit_n by_o they_o and_o then_o within_o a_o little_a while_n after_o this_o the_o light_n of_o the_o lord_n begin_v to_o rise_v in_o obscurity_n and_o my_o eye_n be_v open_v and_o then_o through_o the_o mercy_n and_o love_n of_o the_o lord_n i_o be_v turn_v from_o the_o darkness_n to_o the_o light_n of_o christ_n in_o i_o and_o then_o my_o mind_n be_v turn_v from_o follow_v the_o priest_n from_o dote_v on_o they_o and_o my_o heart_n be_v change_v for_o now_o in_o the_o light_n of_o the_o lord_n i_o see_v light_n and_o how_o i_o have_v wander_v walk_v in_o darkness_n without_o light_n but_o now_o my_o light_n be_v come_v the_o light_a spring_n and_o the_o day_n dawn_v for_o the_o daystar_n be_v rise_v in_o my_o heart_n and_o the_o cloud_n of_o darkness_n fly_v away_o for_o the_o glory_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v reveal_v and_o the_o clear_a light_n now_o shine_v out_o of_o darkness_n and_o christ_n be_v rise_v so_o i_o have_v find_v he_o of_o who_o moses_n in_o the_o law_n and_o the_o porphet_n do_v write_v for_o god_n who_o command_v the_o light_n to_o shine_v out_o of_o darkness_n have_v shine_v into_o my_o heart_n to_o give_v i_o the_o
