to_o christ_n and_o to_o one_o another_o never_o to_o part_v any_o more_o the_o death_n of_o god_n people_n be_v not_o a_o perish_a but_o a_o gather_n comfort_n yourselves_o therefore_o with_o these_o word_n against_o the_o fear_n of_o death_n look_v upon_o death_n as_o a_o gather_n as_o a_o gather_n to_o christ_n you_o be_v here_o as_o daniel_n in_o the_o lion_n den_n as_o jeremiah_n in_o the_o dungeon_n yet_o there_o will_v come_v a_o gather_n and_o if_o you_o die_v in_o a_o good_a cause_n you_o shall_v not_o perish_v but_o be_v gather_v to_o christ_n and_o to_o his_o saint_n and_o angel_n but_o you_o will_v say_v if_o i_o be_v sure_a when_o i_o die_v that_o i_o shall_v be_v gather_v to_o christ_n to_o live_v for_o ever_o with_o he_o this_o will_v be_v matter_n of_o great_a consolation_n to_o i_o but_o you_o tell_v i_o the_o wicked_a be_v gather_v by_o death_n as_o well_o as_o the_o godly_a how_o shall_v i_o know_v whether_o when_o i_o come_v todye_n i_o shall_v be_v gather_v to_o the_o devil_n and_o his_o angel_n or_o to_o christ_n and_o his_o angelo_n how_o shall_v i_o know_v whether_o i_o shall_v be_v gather_v at_o death_n as_o a_o bundle_n of_o tare_n to_o be_v burn_v in_o hell_n or_o as_o a_o bundle_n of_o wheat_n to_o be_v carry_v up_o into_o the_o burn_n of_o heaven_n i_o answer_v you_o may_v know_v it_o by_o four_o thing_n first_o if_o you_o be_v righteous_a than_o you_o shall_v be_v gather_v to_o christ_n at_o death_n for_o the_o righteous_a shall_v go_v into_o everlasting_a life_n heaven_n be_v entail_v upon_o righteous_a man_n by_o

for_o christ_n have_v say_v it_o bless_a be_v the_o merciful_a for_o they_o shall_v obtain_v mercy_n now_o if_o you_o be_v hard_o heart_v covetous_a worldly_a mind_v remember_v that_o text_n he_o shall_v have_v judgement_n without_o mercy_n that_o show_v no_o mercy_n three_o he_o that_o be_v gather_v to_o the_o second_o adam_n by_o faith_n in_o this_o world_n shall_v certain_o be_v gather_v unto_o christ_n by_o vision_n in_o the_o other_o world_n christ_n jesus_n will_v save_v all_o his_o member_n and_o you_o must_v know_v that_o faith_n be_v a_o transplant_n grace_n it_o be_v not_o

to_o the_o saint_n by_o love_n than_o you_o shall_v be_v gather_v to_o the_o saint_n in_o heaven_n and_o to_o the_o everlasting_a enjoyment_n of_o god_n with_o they_o to_o all_o eternity_n consider_v

the_o righteous_a must_v perish_v and_o if_o their_o death_n be_v nothing_o but_o a_o gather_n then_o take_v this_o threefold_a exhortation_n first_o let_v we_o labour_n to_o make_v the_o best_a use_n we_o can_v of_o our_o godly_a friend_n and_o minister_n before_o they_o be_v gather_v let_v we_o do_v as_o elisha_n do_v he_o be_v tell_v that_o his_o master_n elijah_n be_v to_o be_v take_v up_o to_o

be_v take_v up_o that_o day_n he_o will_v never_o have_v follow_v he_o so_o punctual_o and_o inseparable_o as_o he_o do_v o_o belove_a do_v you_o believe_v that_o text_n zach._n 1.5_o of_o which_o we_o have_v often_o have_v experience_n your_o father_n where_o be_v they_o and_o the_o prophet_n do_v they_o live_v for_o ever_o indeed_o if_o they_o do_v live_v for_o ever_o we_o may_v get_v good_a

therefore_o whilst_o we_o have_v they_o let_v we_o make_v what_o use_n we_o can_v of_o they_o before_o they_o be_v take_v away_o from_o we_o it_o be_v a_o great_a fault_n among_o the_o people_n of_o

with_o a_o strange_a sight_n that_o be_v to_o be_v see_v near_o our_o door_n we_o be_v not_o much_o solicitous_a when_o we_o see_v it_o but_o a_o strange_a that_o come_v from_o a_o far_a country_n

belove_a this_o be_v a_o great_a fault_n i_o beseech_v you_o remember_v the_o righteous_a must_v be_v gather_v let_v we_o therefore_o do_v with_o they_o as_o we_o do_v with_o book_n that_o be_v

righteous_a be_v take_v away_o then_o let_v the_o righteous_a make_v conscience_n of_o do_v what_o good_a they_o can_v before_o they_o be_v take_v away_o belove_a if_o it_o be_v possible_a for_o the_o

with_o a_o great_a deal_n of_o difference_n first_o the_o wicked_a be_v scatter_v in_o this_o life_n but_o they_o be_v scatter_v from_o god_n but_o the_o godly_a be_v scatter_v for_o god_n and_o for_o

26.32_o i_o will_v scatter_v you_o among_o the_o heathen_a and_o draw_v out_o my_o sword_n after_o you_o and_o wherever_o the_o wicked_a come_v in_o what_o part_n soever_o of_o the_o world_n the_o

to_o pray_v down_o a_o blessing_n on_o the_o place_n where_o they_o come_v second_o they_o come_v as_o a_o blessing_n by_o their_o holy_a life_n and_o conversation_n that_o be_v a_o loadstone_n to_o

their_o very_a presence_n be_v a_o blessing_n as_o long_o as_o lot_n be_v in_o sodom_n sodom_n can_v not_o be_v destroy_v so_o long_o as_o paul_n be_v in_o the_o ship_n the_o three_o hundred_o can_v not_o be_v drown_v so_o that_o the_o godly_a come_v as_o a_o blessing_n wherever_o they_o be_v scatter_v but_o the_o wicked_a be_v as_o chaff_n scatter_v by_o the_o wind_n and_o they_o be_v scatter_v as_o the_o dust_n of_o the_o earth_n you_o know_v when_o the_o dust_n be_v scatter_v it_o get_v into_o man_n eye_n and_o blind_v they_o and_o fall_v upon_o their_o clothes_n and_o fully_n and_o

be_v true_a but_o how_o not_o to_o god_n and_o christ_n and_o his_o angel_n but_o they_o be_v gather_v to_o the_o devil_n and_o his_o angel_n and_o to_o damn_a spirit_n not_o as_o bundle_n of_o wheat_n into_o the_o barn_n of_o heaven_n but_o as_o bundle_n of_o tare_n to_o be_v burn_v for_o ever_o in_o everlasting_a fire_n now_o if_o the_o righteous_a perish_v as_o well_o as_o other_o and_o if_o their_o perish_a be_v nothing_o but_o a_o gather_n to_o god_n and_o christ_n then_o first_o learn_v hence_o the_o preciousness_n of_o every_o righteous_a man_n the_o great_a god_n will_v not_o gather_v thing_n of_o no_o value_n great_a man_n do_v not_o use_v to_o gather_v chaff_n and_o straw_n and_o therefore_o when_o god_n say_v of_o josiah_n i_o will_v gather_v thou_o to_o thy_o father_n it_o be_v a_o sign_n he_o be_v a_o precious_a pearl_n worth_a the_o gather_n and_o of_o a_o high_a value_n and_o account_v in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n and_o so_o be_v every_o true_a child_n of_o god_n right_a dear_a and_o precious_a be_v they_o in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n both_o live_a and_o die_v they_o be_v buy_v with_o a_o great_a price_n not_o with_o gold_n and_o silver_n and_o other_o corruptible_a thing_n but_o they_o be_v buy_v with_o the_o precious_a blood_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n they_o be_v as_o precious_a to_o god_n as_o the_o apple_n of_o his_o eye_n so_o precious_a that_o be_v have_v give_v christ_n for_o they_o and_o to_o they_o so_o precious_a that_o he_o call_v they_o his_o jewel_n his_o peculiar_a treasure_n jedidiahs_n and_o therefore_o god_n will_v not_o suffer_v they_o to_o perish_v but_o gather_v they_o to_o himself_o before_o the_o evil_a day_n come_v as_o the_o husbandman_n gather_v in_o the_o corn_n before_o the_o beast_n go_v out_o into_o the_o field_n second_o learn_v here_o what_o reason_n we_o have_v to_o be_v comfort_v in_o the_o death_n of_o a_o righteous_a man_n or_o woman_n because_o their_o death_n be_v not_o a_o perish_a but_o a_o

be_v in_o mal._n 3.17_o in_o the_o day_n that_o i_o make_v up_o my_o jewel_n they_o shall_v be_v i_o in_o this_o life_n they_o be_v imperfect_a jewel_n they_o be_v like_o gold_n in_o the_o oar_n mingle_v with_o a_o great_a deal_n of_o dross_n and_o death_n be_v nothing_o but_o a_o perfect_a of_o these_o jewel_n death_n be_v nothing_o more_o and_o god_n do_v nothing_o by_o death_n but_o as_o a_o gold-finder_n gather_v up_o all_o his_o end_n of_o gold_n and_o silver_n it_o be_v nothing_o but_o just_a as_o if_o a_o father_n shall_v send_v for_o his_o son_n home_o that_o have_v be_v a_o long_a while_o absent_a from_o he_o to_o his_o own_o house_n it_o be_v a_o carry_v we_o to_o our_o father_n house_n and_o therefore_o let_v we_o be_v comfort_v when_o our_o righteous_a friend_n die_v though_o their_o death_n be_v matter_n of_o sorrow_n to_o we_o in_o regard_n of_o the_o loss_n that_o we_o sustain_v by_o their_o death_n and_o because_o their_o death_n be_v a_o warn_v piece_n of_o
