light_n enlighten_v yet_o they_o do_v not_o or_o will_v not_o understand_v this_o difference_n but_o confound_v the_o light_n enlighten_v which_o be_v indeed_o christ_n with_o the_o light_n within_o each_o man_n which_o they_o term_v christ_n and_o therefore_o make_v they_o that_o deny_v the_o light_n within_o to_o be_v denier_n of_o christ_n as_o if_o a_o man_n must_v deny_v the_o sun_n to_o be_v light_n who_o do_v deny_v the_o light_n to_o be_v in_o blind_a bartimaeus_n his_o eye_n and_o yet_o we_o do_v not_o deny_v the_o light_n which_o be_v in_o every_o man_n that_o come_v into_o the_o world_n only_o we_o deny_v the_o sufficiency_n of_o itself_o without_o scripture_n preach_v and_o learning_n to_o bring_v we_o to_o god_n and_o to_o direct_v we_o in_o his_o worship_n and_o to_o make_v know_v christ_n to_o we_o and_o the_o way_n of_o reconciliation_n and_o salvation_n by_o he_o again_o because_o we_o call_v the_o scripture_n a_o light_n and_o the_o preacher_n light_n therefore_o they_o exclaim_v against_o we_o as_o if_o we_o deny_v christ_n the_o light_n and_o the_o light_n within_o whereas_o there_o be_v no_o repugnancy_n between_o these_o christ_n be_v the_o chief_a and_o high_a light_n and_o yet_o the_o law_n of_o god_n the_o scripture_n the_o apostle_n be_v light_n of_o the_o world_n will_v any_o man_n in_o his_o wit_n reason_n thus_o the_o sun_n be_v the_o great_a light_n in_o the_o heaven_n and_o the_o sun_n enlighten_v the_o eye_n therefore_o he_o that_o call_v the_o moon_n a_o light_n or_o a_o torch_n or_o candle_n a_o light_n deny_v the_o sun_n to_o be_v the_o light_n that_o enlighten_v all_o the_o world_n and_o the_o light_n that_o be_v in_o man_n eye_n sure_o these_o man_n while_o they_o thus_o i_o can_v say_v argue_v but_o clamour_n give_v occasion_n to_o sober_a man_n to_o question_v whether_o they_o be_v not_o of_o those_o that_o come_v into_o world_n without_o light_n that_o have_v no_o light_n in_o they_o since_o they_o can_v

give_v they_o light_n then_o to_o upbraid_v they_o with_o their_o darkness_n and_o to_o acquit_v ourselves_o from_o their_o charge_n rather_o than_o discover_v their_o folly_n 2._o however_o it_o be_v necessary_a that_o we_o be_v all_o warn_v to_o avoid_v false_a light_n and_o to_o make_v use_n of_o christ_n the_o true_a light_n there_o be_v much_o affectation_n and_o pretence_n of_o new_a light_n

of_o new_a light_n many_o vain_a fancy_n be_v vent_v and_o receive_v and_o that_o satan_n have_v prevail_v with_o many_o to_o put_v darkness_n for_o light_n and_o light_n for_o darkness_n of_o these_o none_o have_v more_o manifest_o deny_v christ_n than_o those_o that_o make_v a_o christ_n within_o they_o the_o true_a light_n and_o while_o they_o except_v against_o the_o light_n of_o the_o
