create_a spirit_n or_o light_n which_o do_v consist_v not_o only_o of_o a_o fiery_a but_o also_o of_o a_o spiritual-watry_a substance_n as_o shall_v be_v show_v in_o the_o chapter_n of_o the_o life_n or_o of_o the_o soul_n and_o deut._n 4.24_o hebrew_n 12.29_o the_o lord_n your_o god_n be_v a_o consume_a fire_n and_o many_o time_n when_o god_n appear_v to_o his_o people_n it_o be_v in_o a_o fire_n or_o light_n §_o 48._o we_o shall_v as_o we_o go_v along_o discover_v our_o thought_n why_o god_n be_v say_v sometime_o to_o be_v a_o light_n and_o sometime_o to_o be_v a_o fire_n and_o leave_v they_o to_o the_o further_a consideration_n of_o the_o reader_n we_o shall_v every_o where_o find_v that_o where_o god_n be_v say_v to_o be_v a_o fire_n he_o be_v represent_v as_o a_o judge_n execute_v punishment_n and_o on_o the_o contrary_a that_o he_o be_v call_v a_o light_n where_o he_o display_v his_o grace_n favour_n and_o mercy_n by_o which_o grace_n man_n be_v save_v and_o thus_o god_n can_v be_v both_o a_o light_n and_o a_o fire_n a_o light_n to_o they_o which_o purify_v their_o heart_n and_o that_o have_v put_v on_o the_o new_a man_n and_o so_o be_v capable_a of_o enjoy_v of_o god_n presence_n by_o virtue_n of_o the_o spiritual_a fellowship_n which_o they_o have_v with_o their_o god_n whereas_o on_o the_o contrary_a he_o be_v a_o fire_n to_o those_o which_o have_v not_o mortify_v the_o old_a man_n or_o their_o flesh_n so_o that_o their_o impurity_n to_o wit_n their_o carnal_a corruption_n can_v stand_v before_o the_o pure_a and_o clean_o divine_a fire_n but_o that_o we_o may_v show_v this_o yet_o more_o plain_o even_o in_o nature_n itself_o we_o must_v consider_v that_o one_o and_o the_o same_o fire_n be_v to_o some_o subject_n and_o in_o some_o respect_v a_o consume_a fire_n and_o to_o other_o not_o so_o nor_o able_a to_o do_v the_o least_o damage_n to_o they_o as_o be_v most_o manifest_a in_o the_o imperfect_a metal_n which_o be_v consume_v in_o the_o fire_n whereas_o on_o the_o contrary_a the_o perfect_a metal_n as_o gold_n and_o silver_n be_v not_o in_o the_o least_o to_o be_v consume_v by_o fire_n so_o that_o the_o fire_n with_o respect_n to_o gold_n and_o silver_n be_v proper_o no_o fire_n to_o wit_n no_o fire_n that_o consume_v they_o or_o burn_v they_o as_o it_o do_v burn_v the_o imperfect_a and_o impure_a metal_n §_o 49._o therefore_o from_o the_o description_n which_o the_o holy_a scripture_n give_v we_o of_o the_o be_v of_o god_n it_o be_v evident_a that_o it_o be_v a_o light_n and_o a_o fire_n §_o 50_o see_v then_o the_o be_v of_o god_n be_v a_o light_n and_o that_o man_n be_v create_v after_o the_o image_n of_o god_n it_o must_v needs_o follow_v that_o this_o image_n in_o man_n be_v also_o a_o light_n for_o as_o be_v say_v §_o 45._o because_o the_o divine_a be_v be_v a_o spirit_n which_o have_v no_o outward_a shape_n or_o form_n the_o image_n must_v needs_o also_o be_v a_o spirit_n and_o such_o a_o spirit_n as_o bear_v resemblance_n to_o that_o which_o it_o represent_v to_o wit_v it_o must_v be_v a_o light_n as_o god_n be_v a_o light_n §_o 51._o now_o that_o the_o image_n of_o god_n or_o spirit_n of_o the_o mind_n as_o it_o be_v call_v eph._n 4._o consist_v in_o a_o inward_a light_n the_o holy_a scripture_n teach_v we_o for_o he_o that_o put_v on_o the_o new_a man_n which_o be_v create_v after_o god_n and_o who_o be_v renew_v in_o knowledge_n after_o the_o image_n of_o he_o that_o create_v he_o col._n 2.10_o be_v say_v eph._n 5.8_o to_o be_v light_n in_o the_o lord_n you_o be_v sometime_o darkness_n

be_v light_a which_o image_n or_o light_n they_o receive_v who_o do_v mortify_v their_o flesh_n with_o the_o lust_n thereof_o it_o will_v be_v needful_a to_o inquire_v into_o the_o property_n or_o nature_n of_o the_o image_n of_o god_n and_o of_o that_o light_n which_o be_v give_v to_o the_o faithful_a that_o so_o it_o may_v far_o appear_v from_o the_o consonant_a property_n thereof_o that_o the_o image_n of_o god_n be_v a_o light_n and_o even_o that_o very_o same_o light_n which_o the_o faithful_a do_v receive_v §_o 53._o when_o god_n have_v create_v man_n after_o his_o image_n it_o be_v

and_o over_o every_o creep_a thing_n that_o creep_v upon_o the_o earth_n from_o whence_o it_o be_v evident_a that_o the_o image_n of_o god_n make_v man_n meet_v to_o rule_v over_o the_o whole_a

these_o be_v contrary_a the_o one_o to_o the_o other_o by_o reason_n of_o which_o conflict_n which_o the_o apostle_n feel_v in_o himself_o he_o complain_v rom_n 7._o that_o after_o the_o inward_a man_n that_o be_v after_o the_o law_n of_o his_o mind_n or_o after_o the_o spirit_n he_o delight_v in_o the_o law_n of_o god_n but_o that_o the_o law_n in_o his_o member_n that_o be_v to_o say_v the_o flesh_n war_v against_o the_o law_n of_o god_n and_o there_o be_v many_o other_o such_o like_a place_n in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n which_o do_v oppose_v the_o flesh_n to_o the_o spirit_n but_o in_o these_o and_o the_o like_a place_n the_o scope_n be_v not_o so_o much_o to_o teach_v we_o how_o many_o part_n there_o be_v in_o a_o perfect_a man_n as_o to_o show_v we_o that_o man_n who_o be_v not_o yet_o perfect_o bear_v again_o have_v a_o warfare_n against_o his_o flesh_n that_o be_v against_o his_o unregenerate_a part_n but_o no_o man_n can_v be_v so_o foolish_a as_o to_o think_v that_o when_o it_o be_v here_o say_v that_o the_o flesh_n lu_v against_o the_o spirit_n that_o we_o must_v thereby_o understand_v only_o the_o flesh_n or_o body_n but_o that_o under_o the_o term_n flesh_n be_v to_o

scripture_n by_o the_o word_n flesh_n also_o to_o understand_v the_o soul_n from_o hence_o because_o when_o the_o holy_a scripture_n oppose_v the_o new_a birth_n unto_o sin_n it_o use_v the_o term_n
