assist him And a greater griefe must it needs be to him for company in suffering is comfortable And there is a woe pronounced to him that is thus left alone 7. And last of all his triall was so hot his foes so fierce that he resisted vnto bloud What should I more say For if wee would seriously ponder of these things we could not but gather life and spirit and like Iehu march on furiously or Deborah valiantly But wee many of vs haue the prize in our hands yet alas wee want hearts Well beloued I can tell you this that when death approcheth and iudgement through her as through a window lookes vs in the face then this fight will bee found to be of worth and a greater good then all the glorie and pompe of the world But if Pauls patterne the goodnesse of the fight and the priuiledges that we aboue many of our Brethren in time past and at this present partake of will not moue vs to fight and fight resolutely let vs then set before vs the fearefull wrath and dreadfull vengeance that is prepared for such as neuer began this fight or if they haue yet endure not to the end And let that also awake vs with Samson when the Philistims were vpon him and cause each of vs to flie for his life For necessitie sometimes makes the faint and fearefull-hearted Souldier valiant Consider therefore what I haue said and the Lord giue you vnderstanding in these things Amen Vse 4 And last of all here might Parents be moued to bring vp their children in the feare of the Lord. It were a blessed thing that we could trayne vp our seed vnder such a Generall to be Captaynes then should we haue comfort in them at our latter end But Parents for the most part busie not themselues with matters of that nature yet they will that their children receiue the presse-money weare weapons goe armed but neuer teach or trayne them vp vnder whom or how to fight the more is the pitty But now be yee better aduised make thy sonnes of Gods Family of Christs Campe of the number of the Faithfull so shalt thou bee a louing Father and tender Mother Otherwise thou hast but made him by nature the Slaue and Souldier of Satan child of perdition And what an honor will it be to Parents at that last Day of appearing when they can say to this great Captayne as he himselfe to his Lord Generall Here am I and the Souldiers that thou hast giuen me For know that yet a very little while and he that will come shall come and will not tarry Doct. 1 Againe where Paul saith Paul hath fought a good fight obserue That it is not a sinne simply to speake the best of ones selfe 2. That a Murtherer may dye a Martyr a Persecuter an Apostle in a word a great Sinner a rare Saint Here we see that a bloudy Persecuter dyed Christs resolute Souldier and the same may befall in our dayes Againe note 3. That Gods Saints on earth haue no abiding Citie Paul must depart his fight is fought his course is finished calling things that are not as though already they were 4. That a well-led life yeelds comfort at the day of death For Paul speaks this with reioycing 5. That a good man in his life wisheth the Church might flourish after his death This was the cause why Paul so prest Timothy to preach hee being ready to depart 6. That certaintie of perseuerance may be had being rightly sought for Besides others that I omit And now all that I haue to say seeing wee are fighters and one of our Worthies fallen is this Let vs be the more watchfull ouer our selues and the closer knit together Let vs goe vp as one man hauing our affections vnited like the Leuiathans skales that no sword can either pierce them or diuide them For a Kingdome diuided against it selfe cannot stand and the diuisions of Ruben will but make great thoughts of heart And because the eye that now seeth me in this place may see me no more and the eare that now heareth mee out of this place may heare me no more my last speech to you my Brethren shall be that charge Ioseph gaue to his brethren at their parting Fall not out neither be stirred one against another by the way Amen FINIS Ephes 6.12 Gen. 1. vlt.
