the_o church_n paradox_n or_o the_o substance_n of_o a_o sermon_n preach_v at_o the_o place_n of_o cumbusnethen_n in_o a_o barn_n in_o the_o parish_n of_o cumbusnethen_n in_o clydsdale_n by_o mr._n john_n welsh_n zechariah_n 14_o chap._n 6._o and_o 7._o verse_n and_o it_o shall_v come_v to_o pass_v in_o that_o day_n that_o the_o light_n shall_v not_o be_v clear_a nor_o dark_a but_o it_o shall_v be_v one_o day_n which_o shall_v be_v know_v to_o the_o lord_n not_o day_n nor_o night_n but_o it_o shall_v come_v to_o pass_v that_o at_o evening_n time_n it_o shall_v be_v light_a the_o text_n zechariah_n 14._o chap._n 6._o and_o 7._o verse_n and_o it_o shall_v come_v to_o pass_v in_o that_o day_n that_o the_o light_n shall_v not_o be_v clear_a nor_o dark_a but_o it_o shall_v be_v one_o day_n which_o shall_v be_v know_v to_o the_o lord_n not_o day_n nor_o night_n but_o it_o shall_v come_v to_o pass_v that_o at_o evening_n time_n it_o shall_v be_v light_n there_o be_v diverse_a case_n that_o befall_v the_o church_n while_o she_o be_v militant_a here_o upon_o earth_n sometime_o she_o shine_v and_o be_v very_o bright_a as_o the_o sun_n clear_a as_o the_o moon_n strong_a as_o a_o army_n with_o banner_n sometime_o again_o she_o be_v like_o dark_a night_n she_o be_v under_o very_o great_a dark_a cloud_n she_o walk_v in_o darkness_n and_o have_v no_o light_n as_o it_o be_v in_o isaiah_n 50.10_o but_o there_o be_v sometime_o also_o that_o she_o be_v in_o a_o case_n different_a from_o both_o these_o and_o that_o be_v she_o have_v some_o light_n and_o some_o darkness_n in_o her_o case_n so_o that_o it_o can_v neither_o be_v say_v that_o she_o altogether_o shine_v nor_o yet_o that_o she_o be_v altogether_o in_o darkness_n this_o be_v the_o case_n that_o zechariah_n here_o speak_v of_o at_o this_o time_n in_o this_o place_n if_o the_o light_n shall_v neither_o be_v clear_a nor_o dark_a neither_o altogether_o so_o clear_a as_o to_o be_v call_v noon-tide_n of_o the_o day_n nor_o yet_o altogether_o so_o dark_a as_o to_o be_v call_v midnight_n with_o she_o but_o how_o then_o but_o like_o the_o evening-tide_n a_o little_a after_o the_o sun_n set_v before_o the_o night_n come_v on_o there_o shall_v be_v some_o light_n and_o some_o darkness_n in_o her_o case_n a_o mix_a dispensation_n of_o wrath_n and_o mercy_n shall_v be_v let_v out_o upon_o the_o kirk_n and_o there_o be_v some_o comfortable_a thing_n promise_v to_o the_o kirk_n while_o she_o be_v in_o this_o case_n and_o first_o it_o be_v promise_v to_o she_o that_o this_o her_o sad_a case_n shall_v be_v but_o for_o one_o day_n that_o be_v but_o a_o wie_a while_n a_o very_a short_a time_n second_o it_o be_v promise_v to_o the_o kirk_n that_o at_o even_o it_o shall_v be_v light_n that_o be_v when_o there_o be_v great_a appearance_n of_o sader_n and_o dark_a night_n then_o immediate_o the_o lord_n shall_v cause_v the_o day_n spring_n from_o on_o high_a to_o arise_v upon_o the_o kirk_n now_o from_o these_o we_o shall_v speak_v but_o to_o three_o or_o four_o thing_n by_o way_n of_o doctrine_n and_o the_o first_o thing_n we_o see_v from_o the_o word_n be_v this_o that_o sometime_o the_o lord_n dispensation_n with_o the_o kirk_n be_v such_o that_o they_o can_v neither_o be_v say_v to_o be_v dark_a nor_o clear_a neither_o like_a night_n nor_o like_a day_n but_o somewhat_o of_o light_n and_o somewhat_o of_o darkness_n in_o the_o dispensation_n somewhat_o of_o judgement_n and_o somewhat_o of_o mercy_n may_v be_v the_o case_n of_o the_o kirk_n second_o a_o second_o thing_n we_o notice_n of_o this_o that_o the_o time_n of_o the_o kirk_n trouble_v though_o sometime_o the_o lord_n be_v please_v to_o lengthen_v and_o to_o make_v it_o long_o yet_o sometime_o also_o as_o it_o be_v here_o it_o shall_v be_v but_o a_o short_a while_n and_o but_o for_o one_o day_n three_o that_o the_o kirk_n trouble_v though_o it_o be_v but_o for_o a_o short_a time_n and_o but_o for_o one_o day_n and_o no_o body_n ken_v when_o it_o will_v end_v yet_o for_o the_o comfort_n of_o the_o kirk_n it_o be_v a_o day_n know_v to_o the_o lord_n though_o neither_o enemy_n nor_o friend_n ken_v when_o the_o day_n of_o delivery_n will_v come_v yet_o it_o be_v a_o day_n know_v to_o the_o lord_n it_o be_v a_o limit_a time_n that_o god_n have_v set_v the_o bound_n off_o four_o that_o when_o the_o kirk_n in_o all_o appearance_n and_o probability_n look_v like_o a_o thick_a and_o black_a darkness_n and_o great_a desolation_n than_o very_o short_o the_o lord_n will_v make_v light_a to_o arise_v and_o the_o day_n spring_n from_o on_o high_a to_o arise_v upon_o the_o kirk_n even_o at_o the_o evening_n at_o evening-tide_n it_o shall_v be_v light_n now_o a_o work_n short_o to_o each_o of_o these_o thing_n and_o now_o for_o the_o first_o which_o be_v this_o that_o the_o kirk_n may_v be_v sometime_o in_o a_o case_n that_o can_v neither_o be_v dark_a nor_o clear_a neither_o dark_a nor_o light_a neither_o night_n nor_o day_n but_o as_o it_o be_v somewhat_o in_o her_o case_n that_o look_v dark_a like_o and_o somewhat_o in_o her_o case_n that_o look_v bright_a and_o lightsome_a like_o again_o this_o be_v prophesy_v to_o be_v in_o the_o day_n of_o the_o gospel_n that_o in_o the_o day_n of_o the_o gospel_n there_o shall_v be_v let_v out_o upon_o the_o kirk_n such_o a_o dispensation_n as_o this_o for_o this_o prophecy_n have_v a_o reference_n to_o the_o day_n of_o the_o gospel_n the_o church_n of_o god_n will_v be_v sometime_o in_o that_o case_n when_o it_o will_v not_o nor_o can_v be_v say_v that_o she_o be_v altogether_o light_a nor_o altogether_o dark_a nor_o that_o it_o be_v altogether_o night_n nor_o altogether_o day_n with_o she_o but_o how_o then_o not_o day_n nor_o night_n but_o a_o mixture_n of_o both_o some_o thing_n that_o look_v light_a like_o in_o her_o case_n and_o some_o thing_n that_o look_v dark_a like_o in_o her_o case_n it_o be_v so_o with_o the_o church_n of_o israel_n in_o those_o day_n when_o she_o be_v in_o the_o land_n of_o egypt_n there_o be_v some_o thing_n that_o look_v dark_a like_o in_o her_o case_n and_o some_o thing_n that_o look_v light_a like_o in_o her_o case_n again_o some_o thing_n that_o look_v like_o gods_n forget_v and_o forsake_v of_o she_o and_o some_o thing_n that_o look_v like_o gods_n remember_v and_o deliver_v of_o her_o again_o that_o which_o look_v lightsome_a and_o white_a like_a in_o her_o case_n be_v this_o that_o the_o lord_n give_v intimation_n to_o moses_n that_o he_o have_v see_v their_o affliction_n in_o egypt_n and_o be_v come_v down_o to_o deliver_v they_o and_o have_v send_v he_o commissioner_n to_o pharaoh_n to_o bid_v he_o let_v the_o child_n of_o israel_n go_v for_o he_o will_v have_v they_o out_o of_o the_o land_n of_o egypt_n to_o serve_v he_o that_o look_v light_a like_o that_o be_v day_n like_o in_o their_o case_n and_o a_o white_a spot_n in_o their_o cloud_n and_o there_o be_v sometime_o they_o know_v this_o and_o have_v the_o understanding_n of_o it_o they_o rejoice_v and_o be_v glad_a and_o no_o question_n praise_v it_o much_o that_o be_v white_a like_o but_o again_o that_o which_o look_v dark_a like_o in_o their_o case_n be_v this_o that_o instead_o of_o be_v deliver_v out_o of_o their_o affliction_n they_o have_v a_o new_a affliction_n lay_v on_o and_o pharaoh_n instead_o of_o let_v they_o go_v he_o make_v their_o bondage_n strong_a and_o great_a this_o look_v very_o dark_a like_a and_o the_o people_n grow_v all_o deject_a and_o heartless_a and_o they_o give_v no_o thanks_o to_o god_n for_o this_o nor_o to_o moses_n for_o his_o pain_n this_o look_v very_o dark_a like_o so_o it_o be_v also_o with_o the_o church_n in_o the_o day_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n some_o thing_n there_o that_o look_v very_o dark_a like_a in_o her_o case_n and_o some_o thing_n look_v light_a like_o in_o it_o and_o first_o of_o all_o this_o look_v dark_a like_o in_o it_o that_o when_o all_o the_o church_n that_o be_v at_o jerusalem_n be_v call_v the_o honest_a man_n stephen_n be_v stone_v that_o be_v to_o begin_v the_o new_a testament_n kirk_n with_o that_o be_v dark_a like_o but_o here_o something_o yet_o that_o be_v lightsome_a like_o with_o it_o again_o the_o minister_n when_o scatter_v go_v every_o where_o preach_v the_o gospel_n and_o their_o preach_v have_v good_a effect_n upon_o many_o for_o bring_v they_o into_o jesus_n christ_n minister_n be_v willing_a to_o preach_v and_o people_n be_v apt_a to_o hear_v so_o that_o their_o out-casting_a be_v their_o gather_v through_o gods_n blessing_n that_o look_v light_a like_o again_o so_o in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o babylonish_n captivity_n
