A58143	Light sown for the righteous, and gladness for the upright in heart This is to go abroad among all people who are honest-hearted, especially amongst the inhabitants in Fourns Fells, in Lancashire, and among all who have known me after the flesh, that all honest people may see what I was in profession, and also what I now am by the grace of God. From him which hath come through great tribulations, who hath even left all for Christ, and hath not whereon to lay his head, but is forsaken of father and of mother, and of kinred also, even for the testimony of Jesus, and for the Word of God, whom the world calls, Thomas Rawlinson.

bear_v witness_n against_o they_o that_o they_o be_v of_o their_o father_n the_o devil_n who_o work_n they_o do_v yet_o with_o their_o mouth_n and_o with_o their_o lip_n and_o tongue_n will_v

peace_n when_o there_o be_v no_o peace_n from_o god_n where_o the_o lord_n have_v not_o speak_v peace_n so_o will_v heal_v the_o hurt_n of_o the_o daughter_n of_o my_o people_n say_v the_o lord_n

both_o priest_n and_o people_n so_o while_o i_o follow_v the_o priest_n i_o see_v that_o i_o be_v but_o a_o fair_a sayer_n make_v clean_o the_o outside_n of_o the_o cup_n and_o the_o platter_n and_o

without_o righteousness_n no_o man_n can_v enter_v into_o the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n so_o i_o go_v about_o to_o establish_v my_o own_o righteousness_n look_v for_o a_o righteousness_n without_o i_o that_o i_o may_v appear_v righteous_a unto_o man_n be_v ignorant_a of_o the_o righteousness_n of_o faith_n which_o say_v on_o this_o wise_a as_o it_o be_v write_v say_v not_o in_o thy_o heart_n who_o

say_v the_o apostle_n who_o be_v a_o minister_n of_o god_n but_o unto_o this_o word_n i_o be_v not_o obedient_a while_o i_o follow_v the_o priest_n neither_o know_v i_o it_o though_o it_o be_v near_o for_o none_o of_o the_o priest_n from_o the_o least_o even_o unto_o the_o chief_a do_v ever_o direct_v my_o mind_n unto_o the_o word_n of_o faith_n which_o be_v nigh_o in_o the_o mouth_n and_o in_o

the_o false_a prophet_n and_o deceiver_n who_o be_v come_v in_o sheep_n clothing_n make_v merchandise_n of_o soul_n for_o dishonest_a gain_n and_o these_o be_v they_o which_o christ_n say_v shall_v

say_v you_o shall_v know_v they_o by_o their_o fruit_n so_o when_o i_o come_v to_o prove_v they_o and_o to_o try_v they_o by_o their_o fruit_n i_o do_v find_v they_o to_o be_v as_o bad_a as_o other_o who_o have_v not_o so_o great_a a_o show_n of_o righteousness_n so_o it_o be_v not_o every_o one_o that_o say_v lord_n lord_n nor_o proud_a boaster_n in_o another_o man_n line_n of_o thing_n make_v

manifest_a that_o they_o be_v without_o god_n and_o without_o christ_n as_o by_o their_o fruit_n i_o know_v they_o then_o to_o be_v deceitful_a worker_n though_o with_o fair_a speech_n and_o good_a word_n they_o deceive_v the_o simple_a and_o so_o blind_v the_o mind_n of_o they_o that_o believe_v not_o in_o the_o light_n and_o though_o i_o do_v like_o the_o chief_a priest_n and_o the_o chief_a professor_n word_n then_o well_o so_o far_o as_o they_o be_v according_a to_o the_o scripture_n of_o truth_n yet_o i_o will_v not_o rest_v satisfy_v so_o but_o prove_v their_o work_n and_o labour_v to_o see_v what_o live_v they_o live_v whether_o their_o word_n and_o

i_o and_o then_o i_o call_v unto_o my_o brother_n william_n and_o bid_v he_o let_v i_o into_o the_o house_n and_o he_o tell_v i_o that_o he_o dare_v not_o let_v i_o into_o the_o house_n i_o ask_v he_o why_o he_o say_v that_o his_o father_n have_v send_v all_o his_o child_n and_o servant_n to_o bed_n &_o that_o he_o go_v throughout_o all_o the_o house_n himself_o to_o see_v that_o all_o the_o door_n be_v lock_v and_o bolt_v against_o i_o and_o do_v charge_v they_o all_o that_o if_o i_o do_v come_v not_o any_o of_o they_o to_o let_v i_o into_o the_o house_n if_o they_o do_v any_o of_o they_o he_o say_v that_o he_o will_v turn_v they_o also_o out_o of_o the_o door_n with_o i_o so_o william_n tell_v i_o these_o thing_n and_o that_o he_o dare_v not_o let_v i_o into_o the_o house_n so_o unto_o this_o day_n i_o remain_v a_o sufferer_n for_o righteousness_n sake_n and_o true_o i_o believe_v that_o i_o shall_v not_o have_v put_v pen_n to_o paper_n in_o reference_n as_o to_o all_o my_o suffering_n from_o my_o natural_a father_n have_v i_o not_o hear_v how_o he_o have_v report_v it_o that_o i_o run_v from_o he_o and_o the_o like_a so_o for_o the_o right_n inform_v all_o people_n understanding_n as_o to_o the_o truth_n of_o this_o matter_n i_o have_v brief_o in_o few_o word_n declare_v something_o of_o what_o have_v be_v do_v by_o he_o towards_o i_o and_o of_o what_o word_n pass_v between_o we_o but_o i_o may_v have_v intimate_v much_o more_o of_o his_o rage_n and_o cruelty_n &_o sore_o usuage_v of_o i_o but_o that_o i_o be_o against_o lay_v open_a nakedness_n and_o have_v only_o clear_v my_o own_o innocency_n as_o touch_v false_a report_n of_o run_v from_o my_o father_n house_n and_o the_o like_a as_o also_o his_o own_o family_n and_o other_o can_v witness_v against_o he_o to_o the_o contrary_a for_o i_o if_o they_o will_v but_o testify_v so_o let_v he_o consider_v and_o look_v back_o and_o see_v what_o he_o have_v do_v against_o the_o innocent_a that_o seek_v not_o his_o own_o who_o seek_v no_o revenge_n but_o suffer_v all_o thing_n endure_v all_o thing_n and_o envy_v not_o but_o in_o the_o peace_n which_o the_o world_n can_v give_v nor_o take_v away_o rest_v satisfy_v in_o his_o father_n love_n from_o above_o and_o so_o refer_v his_o cause_n unto_o he_o that_o see_v in_o secret_a who_o reward_v open_o and_o take_v vengeance_n for_o vengeance_n be_v i_o say_v the_o lord_n so_o i_o have_v boldness_n towards_o god_n in_o all_o my_o suffering_n and_o tribulation_n yea_o very_o i_o have_v the_o answer_n of_o a_o good_a conscience_n

for_o my_o sake_n and_o the_o gospel_n say_v christ_n he_o can_v be_v my_o disciple_n and_o he_o that_o take_v not_o up_o his_o cross_n and_o follow_v not_o after_o i_o he_o be_v not_o worthy_a of_o

this_o life_n and_o in_o the_o world_n to_o come_v everlasting_a life_n so_o it_o be_v evident_a that_o whosoever_o will_v ●ive_a godly_a in_o christ_n jesus_n must_v suffer_v for_o he_o that_o depart_v from_o iniquity_n make_v himself_o a_o prey_n to_o the_o wicked_a and_o to_o the_o unrighteous_a and_o sinner_n so_o friend_n think_v it_o not_o strange_a i_o run_v not_o with_o you_o to_o
