when_o he_o persecute_v the_o church_n he_o both_o act_v according_a to_o his_o judgement_n and_o that_o he_o always_o be_v of_o that_o judgement_n and_o never_o counteracted_a his_o light_n within_o

of_o god_n in_o their_o heart_n and_o tell_v they_o that_o this_o light_n within_o will_v have_v lead_v they_o to_o heaven_n if_o they_o have_v please_v whereas_o contrariwise_o he_o tell_v they_o no_o such_o guide_n but_o that_o they_o be_v permit_v to_o walk_v in_o their_o own_o way_n and_o the_o same_o apostle_n tell_v the_o gentile_n ephes._n 2.12_o that_o they_o be_v without_o christ_n and_o yet_o in_o contradiction_n to_o this_o the_o quaker_n maintain_v that_o these_o gentile_n have_v the_o light_n of_o christ_n and_o christ_n within_o they_o this_o answer_n of_o bellarmin_n i_o
