A60661 The true light shining in England, to give unto all her inhabitants the knowledge of their ways wherein they may behold things past, and things that are, and thereby come to repentance, and escape that which is to come : also, something demonstrated concerning the people of God (called Quakers) as to their principle and practice ... / William Smith.

truth_n something_o concerning_o the_o operation_n of_o the_o light_n in_o all_o that_o obey_v the_o light_n be_v give_v for_o a_o leader_n and_o to_o be_v salvation_n unto_o the_o end_n of_o the_o earth_n in_o all_o that_o believe_v as_o the_o light_n be_v mind_v and_o obey_v it_o lead_v out_o of_o the_o evil_a that_o it_o testify_v against_o when_o it_o reprove_v for_o lie_v then_o be_v mind_v and_o the_o reproof_n turn_v unto_o and_o obey_v it_o will_v lead_v out_o of_o lie_v and_o learn_v every_o man_n to_o speak_v truth_n to_o his_o neighbour_n or_o what_o ever_o it_o be_v that_o man_n be_v drive_v into_o through_o the_o fall_n and_o have_v take_v up_o a_o life_n in_o it_o the_o light_n bear_v witness_n against_o it_o which_o be_v turn_v unto_o and_o obey_v it_o lead_v out_o of_o it_o and_o lead_v unto_o that_o which_o be_v good_a and_o it_o place_n god_n fear_v in_o the_o heart_n of_o man_n and_o bring_v he_o to_o depart_v from_o the_o evil_a and_o then_o he_o come_v to_o the_o thing_n that_o be_v good_a in_o the_o lead_n of_o the_o light_n and_o so_o man_n come_v out_o of_o anger_n and_o envy_n into_o meekness_n and_o love_n and_o be_v lead_v from_o all_o the_o work_n of_o the_o flesh_n that_o be_v evil_a unto_o god_n who_o be_v the_o chief_a good_a and_o this_o be_v the_o work_n of_o christ_n the_o power_n of_o god_n unto_o salvation_n he_o come_v into_o the_o world_n and_o reprove_v the_o world_n he_o leave_v the_o world_n again_o and_o save_v out_o of_o it_o all_o that_o obey_v and_o follow_v he_o so_o he_o make_v manifest_v all_o thing_n that_o be_v evil_a and_o he_o lead_v out_o of_o they_o and_o save_v from_o they_o as_o obedience_n be_v give_v to_o he_o so_o a_o drunkard_n turn_v to_o the_o light_n when_o it_o reprove_v he_o for_o drunkenness_n and_o yield_a obedience_n to_o it_o it_o lead_v he_o out_o of_o drunkenness_n into_o soberness_n and_o deliver_v he_o from_o under_o the_o power_n of_o satan_n who_o have_v he_o captive_a at_o his_o will_n and_o so_o the_o light_n make_v all_o thing_n manifest_a and_o as_o it_o be_v obey_v it_o lead_v out_o of_o all_o evil_a both_o in_o thought_n word_n and_o deed_n and_o place_n true_a judgement_n upon_o all_o evil_a thing_n and_o bring_v they_o all_o to_o the_o death_n of_o the_o cross_n and_o slay_v the_o enmity_n and_o make_v all_o subject_a to_o its_o power_n cut_v down_o the_o man_n of_o sin_n and_o crucify_v the_o flesh_n with_o all_o the_o affection_n and_o lust_n of_o it_o and_o so_o the_o old_a man_n die_v with_o all_o his_o corruptible_a deed_n and_o in_o the_o judgement_n be_v bury_v down_o and_o the_o new_a man_n be_v raise_v which_o after_o god_n be_v create_v in_o righteousness_n and_o so_o a_o holy_a birth_n be_v bear_v through_o the_o operation_n of_o the_o power_n of_o the_o light_n in_o which_o the_o spirit_n of_o the_o mind_n be_v renew_v and_o soul_n and_o body_n sanctify_v and_o the_o conscience_n purge_v from_o all_o dead_a work_n and_o thus_o all_o old_a thing_n be_v put_v off_o and_o all_o thing_n be_v make_v new_a in_o the_o work_n of_o regeneration_n in_o which_o a_o new_a birth_n be_v raise_v that_o abide_v in_o the_o father_n house_n and_o feed_v upon_o bread_n of_o life_n and_o this_o be_v something_o of_o the_o operation_n of_o the_o light_n in_o all_o that_o do_v obey_v according_a to_o the_o scripture_n something_o concerning_o our_o practice_n and_o our_o walk_v therein_o we_o meet_v together_o as_o we_o be_v move_v of_o the_o lord_n and_o wait_v upon_o he_o in_o his_o fear_n and_o be_v subject_a to_o the_o power_n of_o his_o spirit_n that_o be_v manifest_a in_o we_o and_o in_o the_o measure_n of_o the_o spirit_n which_o we_o receive_v of_o god_n we_o worship_v he_o and_o in_o the_o fervency_n of_o the_o spirit_n we_o serve_v he_o and_o as_o he_o move_v upon_o any_o who_o in_o his_o fear_n wait_v upon_o he_o and_o open_v in_o they_o the_o word_n of_o eternal_a life_n and_o give_v a_o word_n to_o minister_v in_o due_a season_n and_o utterance_n to_o declare_v it_o in_o the_o power_n of_o his_o own_o spirit_n so_o we_o minister_v one_o to_o another_o in_o the_o gift_n of_o god_n spirit_n and_o be_v thereby_o edify_v and_o comfort_v one_o in_o another_o and_o so_o our_o preach_v stand_v not_o in_o the_o entice_a word_n which_o man_n wisdom_n teach_v but_o in_o the_o spirit_n demonstration_n and_o in_o power_n and_o this_o be_v the_o gospel_n which_o we_o free_o receive_v from_o god_n and_o free_o preach_v in_o his_o own_o power_n and_o this_o be_v something_o of_o our_o practice_n and_o our_o walk_v therein_o according_a to_o the_o scripture_n and_o thus_o do_v we_o own_o what_o stand_v in_o the_o truth_n and_o be_v bring_v forth_o in_o the_o spirit_n of_o truth_n and_o agree_v with_o the_o scripture_n of_o truth_n and_o have_v its_o root_n in_o the_o love_n and_o meekness_n gentleness_n and_o patience_n that_o we_o own_o and_o dear_o love_v in_o whosoever_o it_o do_v appear_v we_o own_o magistracy_n that_o stand_v in_o the_o power_n of_o god_n and_o execute_v true_a judgement_n within_o the_o gate_n cut_v down_o sin_n and_o evil-doer_n and_o set_v up_o righteousness_n and_o those_o that_o walk_v therein_o we_o own_o minister_n who_o be_v make_v of_o god_n and_o send_v forth_o in_o his_o live_a power_n and_o preach_v free_o as_o they_o receive_v and_o labour_n to_o gather_v people_n unto_o the_o power_n of_o god_n we_o own_o worship_n in_o the_o spirit_n and_o in_o the_o truth_n which_o make_v all_o flesh_n subject_a we_o own_o the_o church_n which_o be_v in_o god_n of_o which_o jesus_n christ_n be_v head_n and_o king_n we_o own_o sing_n in_o the_o spirit_n which_o give_v the_o psalm_n and_o a_o understanding_n to_o sing_v at_o and_o the_o

the_o power_n of_o which_o we_o be_v constrain_v to_o testify_v unto_o the_o truth_n as_o we_o know_v it_o in_o jesus_n and_o these_o thing_n which_o god_n have_v open_v unto_o we_o and_o the_o practice_n of_o they_o and_o in_o what_o they_o be_v to_o be_v perform_v unto_o he_o we_o dare_v not_o deny_v in_o the_o practice_n of_o it_o neither_o can_v we_o be_v subject_a unto_o any_o

of_o they_o to_o the_o impoverish_n and_o weaken_v the_o outward_a estate_n of_o many_o tender_a people_n in_o this_o nation_n of_o england_n within_o these_o late_a year_n in_o which_o time_n there_o

upon_o many_o tender_a conscience_n and_o make_v a_o prey_n upon_o they_o notwithstanding_o all_o fair_a promise_n and_o these_o thing_n we_o can_v own_v or_o conform_v unto_o be_v find_v contrary_a to_o the_o scripture_n and_o to_o the_o saint_n life_n and_o practice_n though_o long_o they_o be_v plead_v for_o to_o be_v right_o according_a to_o the_o scripture_n but_o the_o day_n be_v spring_v
