the light and will not bring his works to the light to be made manifest because his deeds are evil and the light will reprove him Thou that saith this light is natural thou art a blasphemer and thou that saith Christ doth not enlighten every one that comes into the world thou art a lyar and denier of Christs words and lyes waste the Scripture and thou that saith this light is natural thou puts the letter for the light which is natural true it is darknesse cannot comprehend this light but the light makes manifest darknesse and this is the condemnation of the world the light thou that hatest this light thou hast it Christ saith Swear not at all this light will say the same to thee in thee Christ saith He that lusteth after a Woman committeth adultery with her in his heart this light will tell thee the same bringing thy works to it and loving it Christ cryed woe against the Pharisee the hypocrite this light will let thee see the same Christ will say Go ye cursed workers of iniquity this light will say the same to thee in thee who art a worker of iniquity here shalt thou be condemned with the light and judged with the light out of thy own mouth this light will let thee see all thy hard speeches thy venomous thoughts thy evil intentions and thy covetous desires which is Idolatry and all dissembling and deceit to be works of darkness let thee see that all those things are evil there thou hast learned thy condemnation there is thy teacher that would teach thee to know God there is thy condemnation hating that light it will condemn thee from him Thou wilt say thou knowest in thy conscience that drunkenness is sinne here thou lovest darkness rather than the light that shewes it thee and lying and swearing and cursed speaking is sinne and yet thou followest it and pleasures there thou lovest darkness rather than the light that shews thee them because thy deeds are evil and there thou hast learned thy condemnation when Gods righteousness shall be revealed in flames of fire thou shalt witness I speak truth Thou knowest theft is sin and all unrighteousness God forbids thou wilt see something in thy conscience tells thee so if thou hearken to that it will exercise thy conscience and bring thee to repentance Christ saith I call sinners to repentance that in thee calls thee to repentance and if thou hearkenest to that thou hearkens to Christ and if thou hate that thou hates Christ and God then thou turns into the sorcery into all uncleanness and then God is not in thy thoughts and then thou art the disobedient one which disobeys the light which God hath enlightned thee with and there the wrath of God abides on thee and the Prince of the Ayre rules in thee as he doth in all the children of disobedience who hates this light Now do not think that I hold free-will here mans free-will speak of that which is contrary to mans will loving the light it will keep your wills from running and your wills from willing any thing and keeps it in subjection but thou that hates this light and makes a profession of God and Christ and saith the letter is the word and the four Books Matthew Mark Luke and Iohn is the Gospel thou knowest not Christ which is glad tidings the Lamb of God which takes away the sin of the world for the letter takes not away sin and thou that sayst thou had not come to repentance if thou had not known letter thou deniest Christ who comes to call sinners to repentance before letter was but it is he that calls to repentance sinners and not the letter but the letter is a declaration of the word the husks God is the word and it is a declaration of the light Christ is the light and a declaration of the Spirit but the spirit is not in it a declaration of power but the power is not in it the power and the life and the light was in them that spoke it forth which ever the world hated therefore waiting in the light which Christ hath enlightned you with that 's Scripture within you and that will open the Scriptures according as you grow in the light the Saints conditions as you are sanctified and as you are clensed and made free with the Son of God for it is he that makes free who are made free from sin from the world are made free by the Son of God and blessed be the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ who hath raised him from the dead and by him raised up from the dead And to you that tempt God and say the Lord give us a sight of our sins Priests and People does not the light which Christ hath enlightned you with let you see your sin that lying and swearing cursed speaking theft and murder whoredom and covetousness and pride and lust and pleasures all these to be the works of the flesh and fruits of darkness this light within you lets you see it so you need not tempt God to give you a sight of your sins for ye know enough and waiting in the light power and strength wil be given to you for they that waite upon the Lord their strength shall be renewed and living in the light and walking up to God it will bring you to true hunger and thirst after righteousness that you may receive the blessing from God and give over tempting of God to give you a sight of your sins And to all ye that say God give us grace and we shall refrain from our sin there ye have got a tempting customary word for the free grace of God hath appeared to all men and this is the grace of God which shews thee ungodliness and worldly lusts Now thou that livest in ungodliness lying and swearing and theft end murther and drunkenness and filthy pleasures and lusting after the world thou art he that turns the free grace of God into wantonness and casts his law behind thy back and walkest despightfully against the spirit of grace here the Scripture is fulfilled upon thee oh vain man yet thou canst say God is merciful he is merciful and just and that shalt thou see when destruction comes upon thee for thou canst say God is merciful yet lives in thy wickedness passing on thy time without fear of God sporting thy self in thy wickedness Oh ye covetous proud Priests which deceives the Nations who mind earthly things whose God is your belly who glory in your shame enemies of the Cross of Christ your destruction is comming that ye shall not make a prey upon the people any longer the Lord hath spoken it Oh ye great men and rich men of the earth weep and howl for your misery is comming who heaps up treasures for the last day your gold and silver shall eat you up as the rust and the canker the fire is kindled the day of the Lord is appearing a day
