mary_n day_n and_o my_o unfruitfulness_n under_o the_o gospel_n that_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o the_o untimely_a death_n of_o king_n edward_n the_o six_o and_o those_o that_o flee_v in_o queen_n mary_n day_n sad_o complain_v that_o they_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o god_n take_v away_o the_o gospel_n from_o england_n o_o beloved_n it_o be_v for_o thy_o sin_n and_o my_o sin_n that_o the_o ark_n of_o god_n be_v in_o danger_n and_o therefore_o the_o lord_n give_v we_o tremble_v solicitous_a heart_n what_o shall_v become_v of_o the_o ark._n i_o come_v now_o to_o application_n use_v 1_o if_o this_o be_v the_o property_n of_o a_o true_a child_n of_o god_n to_o be_v solicitous_a when_o the_o ark_n of_o god_n be_v in_o danger_n and_o to_o have_v such_o a_o tremble_a heart_n for_o fear_n of_o the_o ark_n than_o this_o be_v a_o certain_a sign_n there_o be_v but_o few_o that_o be_v the_o child_n of_o god_n in_o truth_n o_o where_o be_v the_o man_n and_o where_o be_v the_o woman_n that_o like_o old_a ely_n sit_v watch_v and_o tremble_v for_o fear_n of_o the_o ark_n i_o suppose_v you_o all_o believe_v and_o have_v cause_n to_o believe_v that_o my_o come_n here_o this_o morning_n be_v not_o by_o way_n of_o design_n but_o the_o mere_a providence_n of_o god_n and_o therefore_o what_o i_o say_v shall_v be_v premeditate_v but_o this_o i_o may_v say_v and_o it_o must_v not_o be_v deny_v but_o that_o the_o ark_n of_o god_n be_v in_o danger_n of_o be_v lose_v and_o that_o will_v appear_v by_o these_o reason_n first_o in_o reference_n to_o the_o many_o sin_n in_o this_o nation_n for_o let_v i_o tell_v you_o there_o be_v not_o one_o sin_n for_o which_o god_n ever_o take_v away_o the_o ark_n from_o any_o people_n but_o it_o be_v to_o be_v find_v in_o england_n do_v the_o church_n of_o ephesus_n lose_v the_o candlestick_n because_o they_o have_v lose_v their_o first_o love_n and_o have_v not_o we_o lose_v our_o first_o love_n to_o the_o gospel_n and_o to_o the_o ordinance_n and_o do_v the_o church_n of_o laodicea_n lose_v the_o candlestick_n because_o of_o lukewarmness_n and_o be_v not_o we_o lukewarm_a do_v the_o people_n of_o israel_n as_o here_o in_o the_o text_n lose_v the_o ark_n because_o they_o abhor_v the_o offering_n of_o god_n and_o do_v not_o you_o do_v so_o be_v not_o the_o sin_n of_o israel_n among_o we_o the_o sin_n of_o germany_n and_o the_o sin_n of_o all_o other_o nation_n about_o we_o and_o can_v any_o man_n here_o before_o god_n this_o day_n in_o this_o congregation_n that_o consider_v the_o great_a unthankfulness_n of_o this_o nation_n and_o the_o great_a profaneness_n and_o wickedness_n of_o this_o nation_n but_o they_o may_v conclude_v the_o ark_n be_v in_o danger_n and_o god_n may_v just_o take_v the_o ark_n from_o we_o i_o may_v tell_v you_o of_o the_o drunkenness_n adultery_n covetousness_n injustice_n and_o uncharitableness_n etc._n etc._n that_o do_v abound_v among_o we_o and_o i_o may_v tell_v you_o of_o sanctuary_n sin_n profanation_n of_o sabbath_n and_o sacrament_n our_o unthankfulness_n and_o unfruitfulness_n and_o unworthy_a walk_v under_o the_o gospel_n and_o you_o of_o this_o place_n god_n may_v very_o well_o take_v the_o ark_n even_o from_o you_o and_o indeed_o it_o be_v the_o great_a interest_n i_o have_v in_o you_o the_o which_o while_n i_o live_v i_o shall_v ever_o own_o and_o that_o great_a affection_n and_o respect_n i_o have_v to_o you_o that_o i_o will_v not_o send_v you_o home_o this_o day_n without_o a_o sermon_n and_o let_v you_o go_v without_o a_o blessing_n now_o can_v any_o of_o you_o in_o this_o parish_n and_o this_o congregation_n can_v any_o of_o you_o say_v god_n may_v not_o just_o take_v the_o gosspel_n from_o you_o you_o have_v have_v three_o famous_a successor_n doctor_n taylor_n for_o seven_o year_n and_o doctor_n stoughton_n for_o seven_o year_n and_o myself_o i_o have_v be_v with_o you_o almost_o four_o and_o twenty_o year_n and_o may_v not_o god_n now_o unchurch_n you_o by_o suffer_v you_o to_o want_v a_o faithful_a minister_n to_o go_v in_o and_o out_o before_o you_o this_o be_v one_o reason_n upon_o which_o account_n i_o may_v safe_o say_v the_o ark_n of_o god_n be_v in_o danger_n and_o aldermanberry_n may_v true_o fear_v the_o loss_n of_o the_o ark._n second_o another_o reason_n be_v the_o abundance_n of_o priest_n and_o jesuit_n that_o be_v in_o the_o midst_n of_o we_o and_o the_o preach_n of_o popery_n among_o we_o and_o the_o proneness_n of_o people_n to_o run_v headlong_o to_o the_o garlic_n and_o onion_n of_o egypt_n again_o this_o be_v argument_n sufficient_a to_o make_v we_o believe_v the_o ark_n of_o god_n be_v in_o danger_n and_o shall_v i_o add_v the_o discontent_n and_o division_n in_o the_o nation_n as_o christ_n say_v a_o nation_n divide_v against_o itself_o can_v stand_v but_o i_o leave_v these_o thing_n to_o your_o consideration_n i_o do_v believe_v there_o be_v none_o here_o but_o will_v confess_v the_o ark_n of_o god_n be_v in_o danger_n to_o be_v lose_v but_o now_o where_o be_v our_o old_a elys_n to_o sit_v watch_v and_o tremble_v for_o fear_n of_o the_o ark_n where_o be_v phinehas_n his_o wife_n that_o will_v not_o be_v comfort_v because_o the_o ark_n of_o god_n be_v take_v where_o be_v our_o moses_n our_o elijah_n our_o uriah_n where_o be_v they_o that_o lie_v to_o heart_n the_o danger_n of_o the_o ark_n you_o complain_v of_o tax_n and_o decay_v of_o trading_n of_o this_o civil_a burden_n and_o that_o civil_a burden_n but_o where_o be_v the_o man_n or_o the_o woman_n that_o complain_v of_o this_o misery_n the_o loss_n of_o the_o ark_n most_o of_o you_o be_v like_o galio_n he_o care_v not_o for_o these_o thing_n if_o it_o have_v be_v a_o civil_a matter_n than_o he_o will_v have_v meddle_v with_o it_o but_o for_o religion_n he_o care_v not_o for_o that_o every_o man_n be_v trouble_v about_o meum_fw-la and_o tuum_fw-la about_o civil_a concernment_n but_o who_o lay_v to_o heart_n who_o regard_v what_o shall_v become_v of_o religion_n there_o be_v a_o strange_a kind_n of_o indifferency_n and_o lukewarmness_n upon_o most_o people_n spirit_n so_o they_o may_v have_v their_o trade_n go_v on_o and_o their_o civil_a burden_n remove_v they_o care_v not_o what_o become_v of_o the_o ark._n there_o be_v a_o text_n of_o scripture_n i_o shall_v not_o spend_v much_o time_n in_o open_v it_o but_o i_o will_v have_v you_o well_o consider_v it_o hos._n 7._o 9_o stranger_n have_v devour_v his_o strength_n and_o he_o know_v it_o not_o yea_o gray-hair_n be_v here_o and_o there_o upon_o he_o yet_o he_o know_v not_o shall_v i_o say_v gray-hair_n be_v upon_o the_o gospel_n i_o come_v not_o hither_o to_o prophesy_v i_o say_v not_o the_o gospel_n be_v die_v but_o i_o say_v it_o have_v gray-hair_n for_o you_o have_v have_v the_o gospel_n a_o hundred_o year_n and_o above_o and_o therefore_o it_o be_v in_o its_o old_a age_n and_o i_o dare_v challenge_v any_o scholar_n to_o show_v i_o a_o example_n of_o any_o nation_n that_o have_v enjoy_v the_o gospel_n for_o a_o hundred_o year_n together_o now_o that_o gray-hair_n be_v to_o a_o hundred_o year_n be_v no_o wonder_n well_o gray-hair_n be_v here_o and_o there_o and_o yet_o no_o man_n lay_v it_o to_o heart_n now_o shall_v i_o spend_v time_n to_o show_v you_o what_o a_o great_a sin_n it_o be_v not_o to_o be_v affect_v with_o the_o danger_n that_o the_o ark_n of_o god_n be_v in_o consider_v but_o three_o particular_n first_o it_o be_v a_o sign_n you_o do_v not_o love_v the_o gospel_n if_o you_o have_v any_o love_n to_o it_o you_o will_v be_v trouble_v more_o for_o the_o danger_n of_o the_o ark_n then_o for_o any_o outward_a danger_n whatsoever_o i_o read_v that_o among_o the_o roman_n when_o any_o man_n be_v accuse_v for_o his_o life_n all_o his_o relation_n put_v on_o mourn_a apparel_n and_o they_o follow_v he_o to_o his_o trial_n in_o mourning_n thereby_o to_o show_v their_o love_n to_o the_o party_n in_o danger_n now_o do_v you_o love_v the_o gospel_n the_o minister_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o the_o ordinance_n of_o christ_n you_o will_v all_o put_v on_o mourning_n and_o lament_v for_o the_o gospel_n the_o ark_n of_o god_n that_o be_v in_o danger_n and_o because_o you_o do_v not_o it_o be_v a_o sign_n you_o have_v no_o love_n to_o the_o gospel_n second_o it_o be_v a_o sign_n you_o have_v no_o interest_n in_o the_o gospel_n for_o interest_n will_v stir_v up_o your_o affection_n it_o be_v a_o sign_n you_o be_v not_o concern_v in_o the_o gospel_n for_o if_o you_o be_v concern_v in_o it_o you_o will_v be_v affect_v with_o it_o as_o those_o that_o be_v interest_v in_o those_o person_n that_o be_v in_o that_o
