light_n and_o verse_n 46._o say_v christ_n i_o be_o come_v a_o light_n into_o the_o world_n that_o whosoever_o believe_v in_o i_o may_v not_o abide_v in_o darkness_n john_n 3._o 21._o but_o he_o that_o do_v truth_n come_v to_o the_o light_n that_o his_o deed_n may_v be_v make_v manifest_a that_o they_o be_v all_o wrought_v in_o god_n but_o to_o the_o unbeliever_n hear_v what_o the_o scripture_n say_v isa_n 10._o 17._o the_o light_n of_o israel_n shall_v be_v for_o a_o fire_n and_o his_o holy_a one_o for_o a_o flame_n and_o it_o shall_v burn_v and_o devour_v his_o thorn_n and_o his_o brier_n in_o one_o day_n john_n 3._o 19_o 20._o and_o this_o be_v the_o condemnation_n that_o light_n be_v come_v into_o the_o world_n and_o man_n love_v darkness_n rather_o than_o light_n because_o their_o deed_n be_v evil_a for_o every_o one_o that_o do_v evil_a hate_v the_o light_n neither_o come_v to_o the_o light_n lest_o his_o deed_n shall_v be_v reprove_v eph._n 5._o 13_o 14._o but_o all_o thing_n that_o be_v reprove_v be_v make_v manifest_a by_o the_o light_n for_o whatsoever_o do_v make_v manifest_a be_v light_a wherefore_o he_o say_v awake_v thou_o that_o sleep_v and_o arise_v from_o the_o dead_a and_o christ_n shall_v give_v thou_o light_n 1_o john_n 1._o 7._o if_o we_o walk_v in_o the_o light_n as_o he_o be_v in_o the_o light_n then_o have_v we_o fellowship_n one_o with_o another_o and_o the_o blood_n of_o jesus_n christ_n his_o son_n cleanse_v we_o from_o all_o sin_n 1_o john_n 2._o 10._o he_o that_o love_v his_o brother_n abide_v in_o the_o light_n and_o there_o be_v none_o occasion_n of_o stumble_v in_o he_o the_o holy_a scripture_n do_v excellent_o set_v forth_o the_o true_a light_n in_o man_n and_o the_o precious_a benefit_n receive_v by_o believe_v in_o it_o and_o walk_v in_o it_o it_o guide_v to_o christ_n the_o fountain_n that_o we_o may_v be_v wash_v and_o know_v the_o cleanse_a virtue_n of_o his_o blood_n and_o thereby_o know_v a_o part_n with_o he_o yea_o a_o holy_a interest_n seal_v to_o our_o immortal_a soul_n now_o the_o scripture_n bear_v this_o testimony_n to_o and_o concern_v the_o divine_a light_n and_o the_o quaker_n own_z nor_o teach_v no_o other_o light_n for_o their_o guide_n than_o as_o the_o scripture_n do_v thus_o plentiful_o set_v forth_o and_o bear_v testistimony_n unto_o therefore_o they_o that_o contradict_v the_o scripture_n in_o their_o testimony_n concern_v the_o divine_a light_n within_o and_o its_o teach_n they_o blaspheme_n the_o scripture_n but_o the_o priest_n aforesaid_a do_v contradict_v the_o scripture_n therefore_o they_o blaspheme_n the_o holy_a scripture-testimony_n in_o say_v the_o light_n within_o as_o teach_v by_o we_o expose_v the_o follower_n of_o it_o to_o blasphemy_n and_o until_o they_o can_v prove_v that_o the_o quaker_n teach_v another_o light_n than_o what_o be_v aforemention_v their_o charge_n be_v return_v upon_o themselves_o one_a guilty_a of_o blasphemy_n against_o god_n 2_o guilty_a of_o blasphemy_n against_o jesus_n christ_n 3_o guilty_a of_o blasphemy_n against_o the_o holy_a scripture_n and_o all_o this_o be_v prove_v upon_o they_o from_o their_o 5_o charge_n under_o their_o own_o hand_n and_o lie_v upon_o they_o until_o they_o can_v make_v it_o appear_v that_o the_o quaker_n hold_v forth_o something_o else_o for_o the_o light_n than_o what_o the_o scripture_n witness_v unto_o concern_v the_o divine_a light_n which_o we_o be_v satisfy_v they_o can_v never_o do_v and_o indeed_o look_v like_o a_o piece_n of_o madness_n in_o these_o undertaker_n that_o they_o shall_v charge_v christ_n the_o light_n within_o to_o expose_v to_o blasphemy_n o_o how_o will_v they_o answer_v this_o in_o the_o great_a day_n of_o judgement_n to_o offer_v such_o great_a indignity_n to_o god_n the_o father_n 17._o jam._n 1._o 17._o of_o light_n o_o that_o they_o may_v find_v a_o place_n of_o repentance_n for_o god_n inlighten_v mankind_n not_o to_o expose_v they_o to_o error_n but_o to_o show_v and_o preserve_v they_o out_o of_o it._n and_o man_n can_v err_v in_o follow_v of_o the_o light_n but_o do_v always_o err_v when_o he_o go_v from_o or_o rebel_n against_o the_o light_n they_o be_v of_o those_o that_o rebel_n 13._o job_n 24._o 13._o against_o the_o light_n they_o know_v not_o the_o way_n thereof_o nor_o abide_v in_o the_o path_n thereof_o but_o the_o path_n of_o the_o 19_o prov._n 4_o 18._o 19_o just_a be_v as_o a_o shine_a light_n that_o shine_v more_o and_o more_o unto_o the_o perfect_a day_n the_o way_n of_o the_o wicked_a be_v as_o darkness_n they_o know_v not_o at_o what_o they_o stumble_v thus_o it_o be_v plain_a when_o man_n err_v he_o go_v from_o the_o light_n and_o therefore_o he_o be_v judge_v by_o the_o light_n and_o if_o any_o profess_v the_o light_n for_o their_o leader_n do_v err_v which_o they_o may_v the_o light_n itself_o be_v not_o to_o be_v charge_v therewith_o because_o it_o lead_v man_n
