never_o any_o true_a prophet_n or_o jesus_n christ_n or_o any_o of_o his_o disciple_n and_o apostle_n but_o do_v make_v it_o their_o business_n to_o provoke_v person_n to_o keep_v the_o commandment_n of_o god_n and_o that_o there_o be_v never_o any_o of_o the_o faithful_a servant_n of_o the_o lord_n do_v esteem_v the_o commandment_n the_o worse_a because_o bring_v to_o they_o in_o writing_n this_o i_o say_v by_o the_o testimony_n of_o scripture_n that_o the_o light_n within_o have_v carry_v person_n to_o do_v that_o which_o be_v not_o acceptable_a in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n nay_o to_o do_v that_o which_o be_v very_o offensive_a to_o god_n even_o to_o persecuto_fw-la his_o people_n see_v this_o in_o the_o apostle_n paul_n before_o conversion_n i_o think_v within_o myself_o i_o ought_v to_o do_v many_o thing_n contrary_a to_o the_o name_n of_o jesus_n of_o nazereth_n act_v 26.9_o from_o whence_o you_o may_v see_v that_o he_o do_v follow_v his_o light_n within_o in_o persecute_v the_o church_n of_o god_n and_o say_v christ_n those_o that_o kill_v you_o shall_v think_v that_o they_o do_v god_n good_a service_n from_o whence_o you_o may_v plain_o see_v they_o shall_v follow_v their_o present_a light_n within_o in_o kill_v the_o saint_n therefore_o i_o will_v exhort_v all_o to_o this_o that_o they_o will_v labour_v to_o get_v their_o conscience_n right_o inform_v by_o the_o word_n of_o the_o lord_n that_o be_v to_o say_v his_o precept_n and_o promise_n and_o threaten_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o then_o be_v zealous_a according_a to_o their_o light_n within_o and_o not_o before_o for_o know_v you_o that_o the_o conscience_n be_v a_o light_n of_o acceptation_n and_o not_o a_o light_n of_o information_n until_o it_o become_v enlighten_v and_o whereas_o he_o say_v it_o be_v the_o alone_a salvation_n of_o god_n it_o give_v i_o to_o believe_v that_o he_o be_v of_o the_o same_o mind_n with_o nicholas_n blithe_n one_o of_o his_o principle_n who_o do_v assert_v before_o a_o congregation_n of_o people_n that_o his_o obedience_n to_o the_o light_n within_o do_v make_v atonement_n for_o sin_n that_o be_v past_a therefore_o this_o i_o desire_v to_o speak_v unto_o you_o in_o the_o fear_n of_o the_o lord_n to_o desire_v you_o to_o consider_v of_o such_o expression_n whether_o such_o expression_n do_v not_o plain_o and_o manifest_o declare_v that_o christ_n die_v in_o vain_a if_o justification_n freedom_n from_o fin_n be_v procure_v by_o our_o obedience_n such_o a_o opinion_n be_v damnable_a folly_n and_o weakness_n for_o if_o it_o be_v possible_a to_o become_v
