A34996	A plain path-way opened to the simple-hearted for the answering all doubts and objections which do arise in them against the light and truth in the inward-parts, by which many are kept from obedience and so from peace to their panting souls / by Stephen Crisp.	Crisp, Stephen, 1628-1692.	1668 (1668)	Wing C6937; ESTC R37690	13,520	17

may_v be_v resolve_v in_o such_o a_o state_n what_o to_o do_v consider_v thou_o that_o have_v these_o struggle_n in_o thou_o about_o the_o light_n in_o thy_o conscience_n whether_o it_o be_v true_a or_o no_o or_o whether_o thou_o shall_v own_v it_o or_o no_o and_o be_v think_v in_o thyself_o what_o be_v best_a for_o thou_o to_o do_v whether_o to_o go_v on_o stout_o against_o it_o or_o to_o submit_v to_o it_o i_o say_v consider_v if_o thou_o rebel_v against_o it_o thou_o can_v never_o know_v whether_o it_o will_v lead_v thou_o as_o it_o be_v say_v of_o old_a job_n 24._o they_o that_o rebel_n against_o the_o light_n they_o know_v not_o the_o way_n of_o it_o so_o that_o if_o thou_o do_v take_v that_o course_n to_o rebel_n that_o will_v but_o increase_v thy_o ignorance_n of_o the_o way_n that_o the_o light_n lead_v in_o and_o make_v it_o more_o terrible_a to_o thou_o every_o time_n it_o do_v appear_v in_o thou_o till_o thou_o come_v to_o that_o state_n speak_v of_o job_n 24.17_o that_o the_o dawn_n of_o the_o day_n will_v be_v as_o the_o shadow_n of_o death_n for_o the_o more_o thou_o rebel_v against_o it_o the_o more_o dark_a thou_o will_v daily_o grow_v and_o so_o the_o less_o able_a to_o resolve_v thyself_o in_o those_o doubtful_a thing_n that_o fill_v thy_o mind_n but_o as_o darkness_n increase_v in_o thou_o so_o the_o power_n of_o it_o will_v bind_v thou_o down_o as_o a_o chain_n and_o smother_v every_o good_a desire_n in_o thou_o and_o thus_o by_o rebellion_n against_o the_o light_n do_v some_o man_n lose_v the_o very_a sense_n and_o knowledge_n of_o it_o and_o grow_v past_a feel_n and_o stranger_n to_o it_o though_o it_o be_v in_o they_o for_o the_o custom_n of_o sin_n take_v away_o the_o sense_n and_o the_o feel_n of_o the_o burden_n of_o it_o but_o to_o you_o i_o write_v that_o be_v not_o yet_o come_v to_o this_o state_n of_o hardness_n of_o heart_n but_o be_v bring_v daily_o into_o a_o sense_n of_o the_o burden_n of_o sin_n and_o that_o be_v ready_a to_o say_v if_o you_o be_v but_o sure_o that_o be_v the_o truth_n and_o way_n of_o god_n which_o show_v you_o your_o sin_n you_o will_v follow_v it_o and_o love_v it_o and_o own_o it_o but_o be_v keep_v off_o by_o doubt_n and_o questioning_n very_o i_o say_v unto_o you_o before_o these_o doubt_n be_v resolve_v you_o must_v try_v this_o as_o to_o your_o sorrow_n you_o have_v try_v the_o other_o before_o you_o can_v be_v effectual_o inform_v for_o argument_n will_v not_o do_v sufficien_o in_o this_o case_n therefore_o try_v and_o prove_v what_o this_o principle_n can_v do_v for_o thou_o when_o thou_o obey_v it_o which_o you_o know_v have_v power_n to_o condemn_v you_o and_o break_v your_o peace_n when_o you_o disobey_v it_o why_o shall_v you_o always_o be_v shut_v up_o in_o unbelief_n and_o in_o doubt_n and_o so_o keep_v from_o try_v and_o prove_v the_o light_n as_o well_o as_o you_o have_v prove_v the_o darkness_n that_o so_o you_o may_v reap_v the_o fruit_n of_o it_o to_o salvation_n as_o well_o as_o you_o have_v do_v the_o fruit_n of_o the_o other_o unto_o condemnation_n oh_o dear_a people_n consider_v you_o can_v obey_v this_o light_n of_o christ_n jesus_n in_o your_o conscience_n but_o by_o take_v up_o a_o daily_a cross_n to_o your_o own_o will_n lust_n and_o affection_n for_o that_o be_v contrary_a thereunto_o and_o that_o which_o lead_v to_o obey_v your_o lust_n lead_v to_o disobey_v the_o light_n and_o that_o which_o lead_v to_o obey_v the_o light_n that_o cross_v the_o lust_n and_o vile_a affection_n which_o be_v at_o enmity_n with_o the_o light_n and_o must_v by_o it_o be_v judge_v and_o condemn_v and_o that_o which_o lead_v thou_o to_o slight_v it_o and_o call_v it_o by_o some_o slighty_a name_n that_o be_v also_o a_o enemy_n to_o it_o and_o must_v be_v judge_v by_o it_o and_o so_o as_o the_o light_n come_v to_o rule_v over_o those_o thing_n in_o thou_o which_o be_v enemy_n to_o it_o thou_o will_v know_v that_o it_o will_v lead_v thou_o contrary_n to_o thy_o corrupt_a nature_n and_o as_o thou_o feel_v the_o thing_n so_o in_o thyself_o thou_o will_v come_v to_o be_v wise_a than_o those_o teacher_n that_o have_v call_v it_o a_o natural_a light_n for_o that_o which_o be_v natural_a lead_v according_a to_o nature_n but_o that_o which_o be_v spiritual_a lead_v according_a to_o the_o spirit_n which_o apostle_n say_v be_v contrary_a to_o the_o flesh_n and_o war_v against_o it_o and_o so_o that_o objection_n will_v by_o thy_o obey_v the_o light_n come_v to_o be_v answer_v far_o better_o than_o word_n and_o argument_n can_v have_v answer_v it_o and_o so_o likewise_o the_o sufficiency_n of_o the_o light_n thou_o will_v come_v to_o feel_v if_o thou_o do_v not_o oppose_v it_o but_o give_v up_o to_o be_v guide_v by_o it_o and_o will_v know_v that_o it_o be_v able_a to_o deliver_v thou_o when_o thou_o be_v tempt_v as_o weil_z as_o to_o judge_v thou_o when_o thou_o have_v yield_v to_o the_o tempter_n for_o thou_o know_v already_o that_o it_o be_v able_a to_o condemn_v thou_o when_o thou_o sin_v against_o it_o but_o thou_o can_v certain_o know_v it_o sufficient_a to_o give_v peace_n and_o to_o justify_v till_o thou_o obeye_v it_o so_o then_o the_o plain_a pathway_n to_o the_o answer_v thy_o doubt_n about_o the_o principle_n of_o truth_n in_o the_o inward-part_n be_v by_o obey_v of_o it_o and_o yield_v to_o it_o for_o they_o that_o do_v evil_a they_o grow_v into_o hatred_n against_o it_o and_o it_o judge_n they_o as_o they_o deny_v to_o obey_v the_o light_n so_o the_o light_n deny_v to_o justify_v they_o and_o so_o come_v just_o under_o the_o condemnation_n of_o it_o by_o reason_n of_o transgression_n they_o grow_v afraid_a of_o it_o but_o alas_o this_o do_v but_o prove_v that_o it_o be_v send_v of_o god_n for_o it_o do_v god_n work_n which_o be_v righteous_a for_o to_o justify_v the_o wicked_a and_o to_o condemn_v the_o righteous_a both_o these_o be_v a_o abomination_n to_o the_o lord_n and_o so_o be_v it_o with_o his_o witness_n in_o thy_o own_o conscience_n which_o god_n have_v place_v there_o to_o bear_v witness_n for_o he_o concern_v all_o thy_o action_n whether_o they_o be_v good_a or_o evil_n and_o thou_o thyself_o whoever_o thou_o be_v whether_o high_a or_o low_o rich_a or_o poor_a professor_n or_o profane_a shall_v confess_v unto_o this_o that_o this_o have_v never_o condemn_v thou_o for_o that_o which_o be_v good_a nor_o bear_v witness_n against_o thou_o for_o that_o thou_o be_v not_o guilty_a of_o and_o therefore_o all_o you_o that_o have_v be_v hurry_v and_o toss_v with_o doubt_n and_o questioning_n about_o the_o truth_n come_v hearken_v to_o the_o counsel_n of_o god_n at_o this_o time_n once_o more_o sound_v forth_o unto_o you_o from_o his_o spirit_n by_o a_o servant_n of_o he_o without_o you_o and_o answer_v by_o the_o measure_n of_o his_o good_a spirit_n within_o you_o which_o have_v the_o same_o voice_n and_o cry_v in_o you_o for_o obedience_n to_o what_o be_v make_v manifest_a of_o god_n in_o you_o obey_v the_o light_n and_o you_o shall_v see_v daily_o more_o of_o it_o till_o it_o break_v forth_o as_o a_o morning_n unto_o thou_o and_o till_o it_o shine_v unto_o a_o perfect_a day_n yea_o a_o day_n of_o gladness_n and_o rejoice_v to_o thy_o poor_a distress_a soul_n oh_o arise_v thou_o that_o sit_v sorrow_v and_o thou_o that_o be_v cry_v out_o in_o secret_a because_o of_o the_o bond_n and_o fetter_n that_o be_v yet_o upon_o thou_o arise_v arise_v i_o say_v in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n god_n of_o zion_n who_o draw_v nigh_o to_o thou_o by_o his_o quicken_a spirit_n and_o hearken_v to_o his_o voice_n who_o say_v to_o the_o prisoner_n come_v forth_o and_o to_o the_o bow_v down_o arise_v and_o to_o the_o feeble_a one_o

to_o follow_v i_o and_o obey_v i_o so_o will_v i_o do_v for_o you_o and_o if_o you_o in_o uprightness_n walk_v before_o i_o and_o keep_v my_o conant_n as_o they_o have_v do_v no_o power_n or_o
