power_n of_o god_n yea._n 16._o do_v not_o christ_n enlighten_v every_o man_n that_o come_v into_o the_o world_n with_o a_o true_a light_n before_o i_o give_v a_o answer_n unto_o this_o question_n i_o may_v ask_v you_o what_o you_o mean_v by_o a_o true_a light_n if_o you_o mean_v the_o light_n of_o nature_n or_o the_o light_n of_o a_o natural_a conscience_n that_o may_v not_o altogether_o improper_o i_o suppose_v be_v say_v to_o be_v a_o true_a light_n and_o with_o this_o every_o man_n be_v light_v by_o christ_n that_o come_v into_o the_o world_n either_o more_o or_o less_o for_o pavi_n speak_v concern_v the_o gentile_n tell_v we_o that_o the_o work_n of_o the_o law_n be_v write_v in_o their_o heart_n their_o conscience_n also_o hear_v witness_n and_o their_o thought_n the_o mean_a while_n accuse_v or_o excuse_v one_o another_o rom._n 2.15_o which_o must_v be_v upon_o the_o account_n of_o do_v well_o or_o ill_o and_o sure_o every_o man_n have_v natural_o in_o himself_o a_o acquit_v or_o condemn_v conscience_n joh_n 8.9_o for_o what_o conscience_n be_v there_o so_o fear_v that_o have_v not_o at_o one_o time_n or_o other_o some_o conviction_n for_o sin_n but_o yet_o the_o natural_a light_n comparative_o to_o the_o spiritual_a m●●s_n light_n be_v but_o a_o dimn_n light_n and_o the_o natural_a conscience_n at_o the_o best_a be_v a_o dark_a impure_a and_o defile_v conscience_n the_o natural_a man_n receive_v not_o the_o thing_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n for_o they_o be_v foolishness_n unto_o he_o neither_o can_v he_o know_v they_o because_o they_o be_v spiritual_o discern_v 1_o cor._n 2_o 14._o and_o unto_o they_o that_o be_v undefiled_a and_o unbelieving_a be_v nothing_o pure_a but_o even_o their_o mind_n and_o conscience_n be_v defile_v it_o be_v 1_o 15._o so_o then_o there_o be_v another_o kind_n of_o light_n wherewith_o the_o spiritual_a man_n be_v enlighten_v by_o christ_n which_o be_v clear_o distinguish_v from_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n or_o man_n natural_a light_n you_o be_v sometime_o darkness_n but_o now_o be_v you_o light_v in_o the_o lord_n walk_v as_o child_n of_o the_o light_n eph._n 5.8_o who_o have_v call_v you_o out_o of_o darkness_n into_o his_o marvellous_a light_n 1_o pet._n 2_o 9_o so_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 our_o heart_n to_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 christ_n 2_o cor._n 4.6_o what_o a_o clear_a distinction_n be_v here_o betwixt_o the_o one_o and_o the_o other_o john_n say_v also_o that_o the_o darkness_n be_v past_a and_o the_o true_a light_n now_o shine_v 1_o john_n 2.8_o and_o speak_v of_o he_o that_o hate_v his_o brother_n say_v that_o he_o be_v in_o darkeness_n and_o walk_v in_o darkeness_n and_o know_v not_o whither_o he_o go_v because_o that_o darkeness_n have_v blind_v his_o eye_n and_o very_o remarkcable_a be_v that_o of_o our_o bless_a saviour_n who_o say_v if_o the_o light_n that_o be_v in_o thou_o be_v darkeness_n how_o great_a be_v that_o darkeness_n matt._n 6.23_o so_o then_o understand_v by_o the_o true_a light_n the_o light_n of_o the_o new_a creature_n or_o the_o spiritual_a man_n light_n which_o give_v unto_o we_o the_o knowledge_n of_o god_n in_o the_o face_n of_o jesus_n christ_n then_o i_o do_v affirm_v that_o christ_n do_v not_o enlighten_v every_o man_n that_o come_v into_o the_o world_n with_o this_o true_a light_n for_o such_o as_o have_v not_o the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n as_o all_o man_n have_v not_o

with_o what_o david_n speak_v in_o psal_n 18.28_o thou_o faith_n he_o mean_v the_o lord_n will_v light_v my_o candle_n the_o lord_n my_o god_n will_v lighten_v my_o darkeness_n and_o in_o 36_o psal_n
