rebel_v against_o it_o and_o therefore_o it_o be_v their_o condemnation_n though_o they_o talk_v of_o god_n and_o christ_n with_o their_o mouth_n and_o profess_v god_n and_o christ_n in_o word_n yet_o

he_o tell_v the_o saint_n 1.19_o 2_o pet._n 1.19_o that_o they_o have_v a_o moro_n sure_a word_n of_o prophecy_n then_o that_o which_o be_v hear_v in_o the_o mount_n whereunto_o they_o do_v well_o

peter_n the_o minister_n of_o christ_n he_o bring_v people_n to_o the_o light_n of_o the_o free_a gift_n of_o god_n in_o they_o and_o so_o we_o the_o servant_n and_o minister_n of_o christ_n we_o do_v direct_a people_n to_o the_o light_n and_o grace_n of_o god_n in_o they_o which_o be_v god_n gift_n unto_o they_o to_o profit_v withal_o and_o we_o the_o servant_n of_o christ_n do_v speak_v that_o

of_o god_n can_v be_v buy_v nor_o sell_v for_o money_n for_o simon_n magus_n the_o sorcerer_n when_o he_o perceive_v the_o gift_n and_o power_n of_o god_n which_o be_v with_o peter_n and_o the_o

in_o former_a age_n do_v not_o sell_v the_o gift_n which_o god_n have_v give_v they_o for_o money_n but_o judge_v and_o reprove_v simon_n who_o will_v have_v give_v they_o money_n for_o the_o gift_n of_o god_n and_o the_o servant_n or_o minister_n now_o at_o this_o day_n who_o have_v receive_v a_o gift_n from_o god_n and_o a_o command_n from_o god_n to_o speak_v unto_o people_n they_o do_v not_o

of_o god_n within_o they_o they_o do_v not_o sell_v for_o money_n nor_o for_o any_o earthly_a thing_n and_o so_o in_o this_o they_o be_v like_a unto_o the_o minister_n of_o christ_n in_o the_o age_n

whosoever_o flee_v from_o that_o of_o god_n in_o they_o which_o condemn_v they_o when_o they_o do_v evil_a they_o flee_v from_o that_o which_o god_n have_v place_v in_o they_o to_o lead_v they_o out_o

your_o mind_n unto_o it_o it_o will_v work_v true_a repentance_n in_o your_o heart_n and_o a_o godly_a sorrow_n and_o it_o will_v lead_v you_o into_o the_o house_n of_o mourn_v and_o through_o the_o valley_n of_o tear_n and_o as_o david_n do_v you_o will_v come_v to_o water_v your_o bed_n with_o your_o tear_n and_o to_o weep_v until_o your_o flesh_n fail_v of_o fatness_n and_o so_o you_o will_v travel_v through_o a_o short_a sorrow_n into_o a_o everlasting_a joy_n for_o the_o sorrow_n last_v but_o for_o a_o night_n but_o joy_n come_v in_o the_o morning_n for_o the_o lord_n will_v give_v

when_o condemnation_n come_v upon_o you_o for_o sin_n which_o you_o have_v commit_v do_v not_o flee_v from_o it_o for_o it_o be_v the_o rod_n of_o god_n and_o you_o will_v see_v it_o to_o be_v so_o as_o you_o wait_v with_o your_o mind_n stay_v in_o the_o light_n and_o you_o will_v see_v that_o it_o be_v not_o for_o your_o hurt_n but_o for_o your_o everlasting_a good_a and_o then_o consider_v why_o shall_v you_o flee_v from_o it_o oh_o flee_v not_o from_o it_o for_o who_o i_o love_v i_o rebuke_v and_o chasten_v say_v god_n and_o he_o restore_v every_o sinful_a man_n and_o woman_n who_o he_o receive_v to_o be_v son_n and_o daughter_n and_o through_o his_o judgement_n in_o their_o heart_n he_o redeem_v they_o from_o sin_n and_o so_o receive_v they_o into_o his_o everlasting_a

light_n it_o will_v be_v with_o you_o when_o you_o be_v in_o the_o field_n and_o when_o you_o lie_v in_o your_o bed_n and_o where_o ever_o you_o go_v the_o light_n be_v in_o you_o and_o if_o you_o

mind_n unto_o it_o and_o when_o wicked_a people_n will_v tempt_v you_o to_o that_o which_o be_v evil_a it_o will_v not_o let_v you_o consent_n unto_o they_o but_o rather_o to_o reprove_v they_o and_o now_o people_n i_o say_v unto_o you_o if_o you_o love_v this_o same_o pure_a and_o holy_a and_o spotless_a thing_n in_o you_o which_o never_o consent_v unto_o any_o sin_n that_o you_o have_v commit_v
