A52725 What the possession of the living faith is, and the fruits thereof and wherein it hath been found to differ from the dead faith of the world, in the learning and following of Christ in the regeneration with an opening of light to all sorts of people that waits for the Kingdom of God, and a candle lighted to give the sight of the good old way of God, from the wayes that now ensnares the simple : also a message from the spirit of truth unto the holy seed who are chosen out of the world, and are lovers and followers of the light / written by J.N. in the time of his imprisonment, and now (the second time) published by a Friend.

it_o must_v be_v sanctify_v and_o set_v free_a and_o i_o come_v to_o see_v that_o if_o i_o have_v be_v in_o his_o company_n here_o on_o earth_n as_o long_o as_o his_o disciple_n be_v in_o the_o

that_o this_o son_n of_o god_n do_v not_o appear_v in_o any_o within_o or_o without_o but_o as_o he_o conform_v they_o to_o his_o own_o image_n which_o he_o have_v always_o bear_v in_o this_o world_n

to_o glory_n by_o the_o same_o spirit_n and_o herein_o we_o have_v boldness_n in_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n because_o as_o he_o be_v so_o be_v we_o in_o this_o present_a world_n and_o this_o be_v

that_o spiritual_a birth_n which_o be_v not_o of_o flesh_n and_o blood_n nor_o can_v flesh_n and_o blood_n ever_o discern_v it_o in_o who_o it_o be_v but_o ever_o hare_v it_o in_o who_o it_o have_v

to_o the_o world_n contrary_a to_o the_o world_n way_n show_v of_o his_o come_n to_o judgement_n against_o the_o deed_n of_o darkness_n and_o this_o heavenly_a beget_n of_o the_o father_n be_v to_o

in_o all_o and_o little_o regard_v in_o any_o but_o by_o this_o faith_n believe_v on_o in_o none_o to_o be_v the_o way_n to_o the_o father_n though_o the_o world_n have_v no_o light_n but_o it_o nor_o be_v there_o a_o promise_n of_o life_n in_o any_o other_o and_o this_o to_o i_o appear_v to_o be_v that_o faith_n of_o the_o devil_n or_o dead_a faith_n the_o apostle_n speak_v on_o james_n 2._o though_o more_o harden_v in_o it_o against_o god_n fear_n for_o the_o devil_n when_o they_o believe_v tremble_v at_o it_o so_o this_o faith_n i_o leave_v be_v judge_v already_o by_o its_o fruit_n with_o the_o light_n of_o christ_n in_o every_o honest_a heart_n that_o love_v holiness_n and_o of_o that_o faith_n i_o shall_v speak_v something_o in_o which_o i_o have_v find_v a_o measure_n of_o
