so_o that_o all_o light_n it_o seem_v be_v not_o the_o same_o though_o it_o come_v from_o the_o same_o root_n it_o be_v not_o the_o same_o to_o we_o in_o itself_o it_o be_v one_o and_o the_o same_o but_o to_o we_o it_o be_v call_v natural_a spiritual_a reason_n grace_n and_o so_o there_o be_v the_o natural_a man_n and_o the_o spiritual_a man_n and_o each_o one_o of_o these_o have_v their_o light_n and_o that_o be_v the_o same_o to_o itself_o and_o in_o itself_o but_o in_o the_o natural_a man_n it_o be_v but_o reason_n it_o be_v but_o gather_v and_o discern_v of_o thing_n by_o discourse_n and_o argument_n from_o thing_n that_o be_v make_v and_o so_o the_o natural_a man_n seek_v after_o god_n in_o this_o creation_n rom._n 1._o 19_o 20._o and_o this_o light_n of_o the_o natural_a man_n be_v far_o below_o the_o light_n that_o be_v in_o the_o spiritual_a man_n even_o as_o far_o as_o the_o light_n and_o life_n that_o be_v in_o beast_n be_v below_o the_o light_n and_o life_n that_o be_v in_o man_n and_o so_o the_o natural_a man_n receive_v not_o the_o thing_n of_o the_o spirit_n neither_o can_v he_o know_v they_o for_o they_o be_v beyond_o his_o principle_n of_o light_n but_o the_o spiritual_a man_n discern_v all_o thingh_n 1_o cor._n 2._o 14_o 15._o and_o yet_o the_o natural_a man_n have_v a_o light_n too_o i_o call_v he_o the_o natural_a man_n because_o he_o be_v first_o and_o to_o we_o more_o manifest_a as_o the_o apostle_n say_v that_o which_o be_v first_o be_v natural_a afterward_o that_o which_o be_v spiritual_a this_o first_o man_n according_a to_o his_o principle_n have_v a_o light_n and_o life_n and_o that_o flow_v from_o the_o root_n christ_n in_o he_o which_o he_o see_v not_o for_o the_o head_n of_o every_o man_n be_v christ_n and_o in_o he_o all_o live_v and_o move_v and_o have_v their_o be_v and_o this_o light_n or_o christ_n shine_v in_o the_o darkness_n but_o the_o darkness_n know_v it_o not_o and_o so_o man_n have_v skill_n and_o understanding_n in_o thing_n of_o nature_n and_o as_o far_o as_o this_o creation_n teach_v he_o and_o this_o be_v his_o light_n and_o the_o root_n which_o be_v christ_n he_o see_v not_o and_o so_o be_v still_o in_o darkness_n as_o to_o christ_n &_o the_o hide_a thing_n of_o god_n now_o all_o this_o light_n or_o reason_n set_v man_n in_o a_o sphere_n above_o beast_n which_o be_v therefore_o call_v irrational_a man_n rational_a and_o this_o light_n through_o low_a and_o faint_a yet_o teach_v man_n to_o feel_v and_o groap_n after_o a_o god_n and_o to_o worship_n yet_o still_o it_o be_v to_o the_o unknown_a god_n it_o shine_v and_o glimmer_v in_o the_o darkness_n of_o the_o first_o man_n fall_v and_o as_o it_o come_v from_o god_n so_o it_o return_v to_o god_n &_o feel_v after_o he_o in_o this_o and_o that_o without_o and_o weary_v itself_o about_o the_o knowledge_n of_o good_a and_o evil_a and_o many_o time_n put_v some_o faint_a desire_n in_o man_n after_o god_n enough_o to_o bear_v witness_n of_o itself_o unto_o man_n and_o to_o leave_v he_o inexcusable_a but_o this_o light_n be_v but_o a_o imperfect_a weak_a faint_a light_n as_o i_o may_v so_o call_v it_o not_o that_o any_o thing_n be_v so_o to_o god_n but_o to_o we_o it_o be_v so_o as_o veil_v by_o our_o fleshly_a mind_n thought_n long_n so_o it_o grow_v weak_a and_o weary_a and_o in_o the_o end_n go_v out_o and_o we_o see_v it_o no_o more_o and_o so_o man_n in_o the_o first_o state_n have_v need_n of_o a_o new_a birth_n a_o new_a man_n that_o be_v spirit_n and_o power_n from_o god_n a_o new_a fountain_n to_o break_v up_o in_o he_o or_o rather_o to_o have_v that_o awaken_v which_o before_o lay_v dead_a &_o leave_v we_o in_o darkness_n man_n have_v need_v of_o this_o as_o we_o see_v in_o the_o case_n of_o paul_n and_o our_o own_o experience_n this_o be_v he_o who_o we_o be_v to_o wait_v for_o the_o come_n of_o christ_n the_o new_a man_n to_o visit_v we_o with_o light_n and_o salvation_n and_o when_o christ_n and_o grace_n and_o love_n from_o the_o father_n spring_v up_o in_o we_o and_o show_v itself_o to_o be_v our_o light_n and_o guide_v than_o the_o true_a light_n be_v come_v it_o be_v but_o flesh_n before_o but_o reason_n and_o nature_n and_o law_n now_o it_o be_v the_o truth_n and_o it_o bring_v grace_n and_o truth_n to_o we_o and_o now_o god_n be_v come_v christ_n be_v come_v they_o be_v there_o before_o but_o now_o we_o be_v awaken_v and_o we_o see_v they_o to_o be_v there_o and_o this_o come_n of_o christ_n in_o power_n as_o to_o paul_n be_v the_o come_n of_o light_n and_o life_n indeed_o unto_o our_o soul_n before_o this_o be_v reveal_v in_o paul_n he_o know_v something_o indeed_o of_o the_o law_n and_o the_o tree_n of_o knowledge_n of_o good_a and_o evil_n but_o he_o know_v nothing_o of_o the_o gospel_n of_o the_o tree_n of_o life_n of_o the_o truth_n as_o it_o be_v in_o jesus_n and_o of_o his_o own_o wicked_a false_a heart_n but_o when_o christ_n be_v reveal_v than_o he_o leave_v off_o flesh_n and_o blood_n and_o consult_v with_o christ_n alone_o and_o he_o make_v all_o thing_n manifest_v and_o show_v he_o what_o to_o do_v and_o thus_o you_o see_v a_o vast_a difference_n between_o the_o light_n that_o be_v in_o the_o first_o man_n and_o the_o light_n that_o be_v in_o the_o second_o man_n i_o mean_v the_o light_n that_o be_v in_o we_o while_o we_o be_v in_o the_o state_n of_o nature_n and_o the_o light_n that_o be_v in_o we_o when_o we_o come_v to_o be_v in_o the_o state_n of_o grace_n in_o the_o first_o it_o be_v but_o reason_n and_o it_o tend_v to_o the_o build_n up_o of_o man_n and_o self_n because_o it_o be_v weak_a and_o know_v not_o the_o lord_n in_o truth_n nor_o the_o way_n to_o he_o and_o it_o be_v only_o sufficient_a to_o witness_v there_o be_v a_o god_n and_o so_o to_o condemn_v we_o because_o we_o run_v into_o sin_n but_o it_o be_v not_o sufficient_a by_o the_o high_a improvement_n of_o it_o to_o bring_v we_o acquaint_v with_o christ_n and_o salvation_n by_o he_o as_o we_o see_v in_o the_o case_n of_o paul_n but_o as_o for_o the_o light_n which_o spring_v up_o in_o we_o in_o we_o through_o a_o manifestation_n or_o revelation_n of_o christ_n in_o &_o to_o our_o soul_n this_o show_v we_o the_o father_n in_o love_n and_o bring_v we_o reconcile_v and_o lead_v we_o to_o feed_v and_o live_v upon_o he_o for_o evermore_o and_o so_o be_v a_o bring_n of_o we_o out_o of_o darkness_n into_o his_o marvellous_a light_n answ_n thou_o say_v christ_n be_v natural_a to_o none_o repl._n if_o thou_o mean_v that_o he_o be_v not_o in_o nature_n as_o a_o spark_n under_o the_o ash_n so_o it_o be_v false_a but_o if_o thou_o mean_v that_o the_o natural_a man_n know_v he_o not_o so_o it_o be_v true_a further_o thou_o say_v christ_n be_v not_o in_o their_o conscience_n but_o be_v a_o witness_n against_o all_o natural_a inclination_n and_o work_v act_v in_o the_o corrupt_a nature_n repl._n here_o thou_o contradict_v thyself_o for_o if_o christ_n witness_n against_o natural_a work_n where_o do_v he_o witness_v but_o in_o the_o conscience_n and_o what_o be_v the_o conscience_n but_o a_o certain_a witness_n within_o according_a unto_o the_o spark_n of_o christ_n that_o be_v in_o the_o conscience_n or_o knowledge_n unto_o the_o evil_a or_o good_a we_o do_v and_o so_o conscience_n do_v either_o excuse_n we_o or_o accuse_v we_o according_a unto_o our_o work_n and_o be_v not_o this_o all_o the_o light_n of_o christ_n that_o be_v in_o the_o gentile_n rom._n 2._o 14_o 15._o therefore_o why_o do_v thou_o say_v that_o christ_n be_v not_o in_o the_o gentile_n conscience_n according_a to_o some_o measure_n of_o light_n and_o if_o he_o be_v there_o in_o light_n than_o this_o light_n be_v

thou_o say_v have_v no_o letter_n be_v bring_v into_o that_o nature_n but_o why_o then_o do_v thou_o so_o much_o trouble_v the_o world_n with_o the_o letter_n when_o it_o seem_v to_o favour_v thy_o ceremony_n tradition_n and_o observationss_n if_o they_o who_o partake_v of_o christ_n have_v no_o use_n nor_o need_n of_o letter_n answ_n thou_o say_v christ_n be_v but_o one_o who_o be_v the_o light_n of_o the_o world_n and_o light_v every_o man_n who_o come_v into_o the_o world_n jew_n and_o gentile_n and_o in_o they_o both_o this_o light_n be_v but_o one_o repl._n and_o so_o be_v thy_o
