A65987	Vnto those people who are called Baptists.	Wight, Thomas, of Market St., Herts.	1659 (1659)	Wing W2109; ESTC R214793	4,236	7

unto_o those_o people_z who_o be_v call_v baptist_n friend_n in_o tender_a love_n to_o your_o soul_n be_v my_o soul_n draw_v forth_o for_o i_o see_v there_o be_v a_o zeal_n among_o you_o but_o be_v your_o zeal_n according_a to_o knowledge_n whilst_o many_o of_o you_o be_v profess_v preach_v pray_v and_o worship_v and_o yet_o stumble_v at_o and_o contend_v against_o that_o in_o which_o alone_a all_o worship_n prayer_n and_o sacrifice_n be_v accept_v in_o the_o sighr_n of_o god_n therefore_o this_o be_v the_o word_n of_o truth_n which_o i_o testify_v unto_o you_o that_o except_o your_o worship_n prayer_n and_o sacrifice_n do_v proceed_v and_o come_v from_o a_o measure_n of_o he_o in_o you_o who_o be_v the_o light_n of_o the_o world_n in_o who_o alone_o the_o father_n be_v well_o please_v you_o be_v but_o warm_v yourselves_o at_o your_o own_o spark_n which_o you_o have_v kindle_v for_o which_o you_o must_v receive_v of_o the_o lord_n a_o lie_v down_o in_o sorrow_n therefore_o you_o who_o be_v cry_v out_o of_o deceit_n and_o delusion_n i_o say_v be_v not_o deceive_v for_o god_n will_v not_o be_v worship_v or_o serve_v but_o with_o his_o own_o seed_n only_o therefore_o weary_v he_o not_o with_o that_o which_o be_v you_o and_o take_v heed_n of_o reject_v or_o slight_v that_o measure_n of_o his_o own_o seed_n which_o he_o have_v give_v you_o to_o serve_v he_o with_o even_o that_o in_o you_o which_o move_v contrary_a to_o the_o world_n and_o breathe_v after_o the_o fountain_n from_o whence_o it_o come_v that_o which_o search_v the_o heart_n yea_o the_o secret_n therein_o and_o make_v manifest_v the_o deceit_n and_o hypocrysie_n thereof_o this_o be_v the_o seed_n of_o the_o kingdom_n in_o you_o which_o be_v like_o a_o grain_n of_o mustard_n seed_n and_o this_o be_v the_o grace_n of_o god_n which_o bring_v salvation_n and_o have_v appear_v unto_o all_o man_n for_o this_o end_n to_o lead_v out_o of_o the_o dark_a path_n of_o sin_n and_o death_n and_o this_o be_v the_o light_n which_o shine_v in_o the_o dark_a heart_n of_o man_n but_o the_o darkness_n comprehend_v it_o not_o but_o man_n love_v the_o darkness_n rather_o than_o the_o light_n because_o it_o make_v their_o cruel_a deed_n manifest_v and_o be_v not_o many_o of_o you_o stranger_n to_o this_o light_n have_v your_o heart_n veil_v over_o with_o thick_a darkness_n whilst_o you_o be_v profess_v and_o read_v the_o scripture_n and_o yet_o be_v question_v where_o they_o declare_v of_o or_o direct_v to_o a_o light_n within_o oh_o how_o have_v the_o god_n of_o this_o world_n blind_v the_o eye_n of_o many_o who_o be_v stumble_v at_o that_o which_o be_v give_v they_o to_o lead_v out_o of_o darkness_n even_o that_o sure_a word_n of_o prophecy_n unto_o which_o you_o may_v do_v well_o to_o take_v heed_n as_o unto_o a_o light_n that_o shine_v in_o a_o dark_a place_n until_o the_o day_n dawn_n and_o the_o daystar_n arise_v in_o your_o heart_n but_o how_o can_v you_o profess_v that_o you_o know_v god_n whilst_o you_o be_v deny_v the_o light_n of_o his_o son_n within_o in_o which_o the_o father_n be_v reveal_v and_o by_o which_o that_o that_o may_v be_v know_v of_o god_n be_v make_v manifest_a in_o man_n or_o be_v there_o another_o way_n to_o come_v to_o the_o knowledge_n of_o god_n then_o by_o his_o light_n which_o shine_v in_o the_o heart_n and_o give_v the_o light_n of_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n in_o the_o face_n of_o jesus_n be_v not_o this_o the_o apostle_n doctrine_n and_o the_o end_n of_o their_o ministry_n to_o turn_v people_n from_o darkness_n to_o this_o light_n that_o so_o they_o may_v come_v to_o know_v he_o in_o they_o who_o be_v the_o light_n of_o the_o world_n for_o they_o who_o know_v he_o only_o outward_o after_o the_o flesh_n they_o murder_v he_o in_o who_o the_o fullness_n of_o light_n life_n and_o power_n dwell_v because_o they_o know_v he_o not_o that_o be_v from_o the_o beginning_n the_o word_n of_o life_n the_o rock_n of_o age_n the_o bread_n that_o come_v down_o from_o heaven_n the_o flesh_n that_o be_v meat_n indeed_o and_o the_o blood_n that_o be_v drink_v indeed_o they_o know_v not_o neither_o have_v they_o hear_v the_o voice_n of_o god_n or_o see_v his_o shape_n at_o any_o time_n for_o they_o be_v err_v and_o go_v forth_o from_o that_o which_o will_v have_v make_v he_o manifest_a even_o the_o seed_n of_o that_o kingdom_n within_o they_o which_o they_o be_v seek_v in_o observation_n without_o and_o in_o the_o scripture_n without_o they_o do_v think_v to_o have_v eternal_a life_n but_o unto_o he_o that_o be_v the_o life_n of_o who_o the_o scripture_n testify_v they_o will_v not_o come_v but_o stumble_v at_o the_o stumble_a stone_n now_o you_o that_o deny_v that_o christ_n have_v enlighten_v all_o man_n with_o a_o light_n sufficient_a to_o lead_v to_o salvation_n who_o faith_n be_v that_o god_n have_v appoint_v a_o certain_a number_n before_o the_o world_n be_v unto_o salvation_n and_o unto_o they_o he_o afford_v grace_n sufficient_a to_o bring_v they_o to_o the_o end_n appoint_v they_o and_o that_o all_o other_o be_v reprobate_v to_o destruction_n and_o yet_o say_v that_o god_n give_v so_o much_o of_o his_o grace_n to_o they_o as_o may_v leave_v they_o without_o excuse_n and_o that_o may_v be_v sufficient_a to_o condemn_v but_o not_o to_o save_v they_o notwithstanding_o god_n declare_v that_o he_o will_v not_o the_o death_n of_o he_o that_o die_v but_o rather_o that_o he_o will_v turn_v from_o his_o wickedness_n and_o live_v and_o that_o he_o have_v give_v his_o son_n a_o light_n into_o the_o world_n that_o it_o through_o he_o may_v be_v save_v and_o that_o he_o will_v all_o man_n shall_v be_v save_v and_o come_v to_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o truth_n and_o that_o he_o be_v no_o respecter_n of_o person_n but_o though_o your_o faith_n do_v stand_v in_o respect_n of_o person_n will_v you_o therefore_o make_v god_n to_o be_v like_o yourselves_o sure_o if_o you_o will_v but_o come_v down_o and_o own_o the_o wisdom_n of_o god_n you_o may_v in_o it_o see_v your_o principle_n to_o be_v such_o that_o even_o strike_v at_o the_o root_n of_o the_o justice_n of_o god_n limit_n his_o mercy_n and_o make_v he_o a_o respecter_n of_o person_n and_o rherefore_o do_v i_o bear_v witness_n against_o it_o and_o do_v affirm_v that_o election_n and_o reprobation_n be_v not_o in_o respect_n or_o relation_n to_o person_n but_o in_o the_o two_o seed_n between_o which_o god_n have_v put_v enmity_n there_o have_v god_n past_a election_n and_o reprobation_n and_o all_o man_n as_o they_o be_v in_o the_o fall_n in_o sin_n and_o transgression_n be_v under_o the_o curse_n and_o in_o the_o state_n of_o reprobation_n be_v join_v unto_o that_o seed_n where_o the_o curse_n and_o reprobation_n be_v therefore_o have_v god_n in_o his_o love_n give_v his_o son_n to_o redeem_v man_n out_o of_o that_o state_n from_o under_o the_o power_n of_o the_o serpent_n again_o unto_o himself_o and_o into_o his_o power_n and_o dominion_n who_o be_v the_o seed_n unto_o which_o the_o blessing_n be_v and_o in_o who_o the_o election_n stand_v sure_a unto_o as_o many_o as_o be_v in_o he_o who_o be_v the_o light_n and_o of_o who_o fullness_n all_o have_v a_o measure_n even_o of_o the_o grace_n that_o bring_v salvation_n which_o unto_o all_o have_v appear_v and_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n be_v one_o and_o be_v not_o divide_v though_o some_o in_o their_o dark_a imagination_n distinguish_v between_o grace_n sufficient_a and_o grace_v not_o sufficient_a or_o save_v grace_n and_o prevent_v or_o restrain_v grace_n but_o i_o say_v the_o grace_n of_o god_n be_v perfect_a and_o the_o least_o measure_n thereof_o be_v sufficient_a to_o save_v to_o the_o uttermost_a all_o those_o that_o give_v up_o themselves_o to_o be_v lead_v and_o guide_v by_o it_o but_o the_o slothful_a servant_n hide_v his_o lord_n talon_n and_o then_o complain_v of_o his_o lord_n but_o he_o receive_v his_o portion_n in_o utter_a darkness_n whilst_o he_o that_o have_v improve_v his_o two_o talent_n receive_v his_o portion_n with_o he_o that_o have_v ten_o and_o this_o i_o testify_v that_o it_o be_v only_o by_o grace_n that_o salvation_n be_v wrought_v and_o not_o by_o any_o thing_n of_o man_n own_o for_o where_o grace_n be_v true_o own_a there_o self_n be_v as_o true_o deny_v in_o all_o its_o willing_a &_o work_v for_o when_o that_o be_v own_v and_o join_v to_o which_o be_v god_n power_n than_o all_o man_n work_n which_o he_o have_v wrought_v and_o all_o his_o fair_a building_n which_o he_o have_v frame_v in_o self_n in_o his_o own_o power_n and_o wisdom_n though_o glorious_a in_o appearance_n yet_o all_o must_v be_v pull_v down_o and_o a_o
