John Burnyeat
John Burnyeat (1631-1690) was an elder and pillar in the early Society of Friends, whose powerful ministry turned many from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan to the power of God. Having been awakened to see the fallacy of an imputed righteousness that is neither experienced nor obeyed, he turned to the One who struck him and found that Zion must be purged “by the spirit of judgment, and by the spirit of burning.” Having been prepared and sent into harvest, he labored tirelessly and traveled extensively in the service of Truth, often suffering greatly for His faithfulness to Jesus Christ. Truly it can be said of John Burnyeat that he followed the Lord fully in his generation, putting his hand to the plow and never looking back.
[John Burnyeat] was a faithful friend and brother, and an able minister of Christ Jesus…an elder, and a pillar in the house of God…a true apostle of Jesus Christ, who preached Him freely, both by sea and land.
