that_o sleep_n in_o he_o with_o himself_o into_o heaven_n where_o they_o shall_v be_v ever_o with_o the_o lord_n in_o perfect_a happiness_n so_o much_o for_o the_o explication_n of_o the_o three_o doctrine_n use_v 1_o let_v we_o not_o mourn_v immoderate_o for_o the_o death_n of_o our_o godly_a friend_n and_o relation_n this_o be_v the_o use_n which_o the_o apostle_n will_v have_v we_o to_o make_v 4.13_o mourn_v we_o may_v but_o not_o as_o the_o heathen_a who_o have_v no_o hope_n let_v we_o remember_v that_o the_o death_n of_o a_o child_n of_o god_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o a_o comfortable_a and_o bless_a sleep_n that_o he_o go_v to_o the_o grave_a as_o to_o his_o bed_n and_o there_o lie_v free_a as_o a_o man_n asleep_a from_o all_o care_n and_o trouble_n and_o at_o rest_n from_o all_o his_o labour_n that_o even_o while_o he_o be_v in_o the_o grave_a he_o be_v asleep_a in_o jesus_n and_o there_o continue_v a_o member_n of_o his_o body_n that_o his_o very_a dust_n be_v precious_a in_o god_n sight_n and_o part_n of_o god_n election_n christ_n redemption_n and_o the_o spirit_n sanctification_n that_o by_o virtue_n of_o its_o union_n with_o christ_n his_o body_n while_n in_o the_o grave_a be_v not_o utter_o extinct_a but_o there_o be_v a_o substance_n not_o only_o reserve_v but_o preserve_v to_o be_v raise_v to_o everlasting_a glory_n that_o christ_n have_v so_o perfume_v the_o grave_a as_o that_o it_o be_v nothing_o else_o to_o he_o but_o as_o a_o tiring-house_n and_o withdrawing-room_n in_o a_o word_n that_o he_o lie_v down_o in_o his_o bed_n till_o the_o morning_n of_o the_o resurrection_n and_o then_o he_o shall_v put_v on_o stolam_fw-la immortalitatis_fw-la the_o garment_n of_o immortality_n and_o his_o vile_a body_n shall_v be_v make_v like_o unto_o the_o glorious_a body_n of_o jesus_n christ._n let_v we_o comfort_v one_o another_o with_o these_o word_n let_v we_o not_o weep_v immeasurable_o for_o those_o from_o who_o all_o tear_n be_v wipe_v away_o but_o let_v we_o consider_v their_o unspeakable_a g●in_n death_n have_v put_v a_o end_n to_o all_o their_o temporal_a and_o spiritual_a evil_n and_o open_v a_o door_n for_o they_o to_o everlasting_a happiness_n use_v 2._o let_v these_o doctrine_n serve_v as_o a_o precious_a antidote_n to_o all_o the_o people_n of_o god_n against_o the_o fear_n of_o death_n and_o of_o the_o grave_a why_o shall_v we_o fear_v that_o which_o if_o it_o shall_v not_o happen_v we_o shall_v be_v superlative_o miserable_a as_o the_o apostle_n say_v if_o we_o have_v hope_v only_o in_o this_o life_n we_o be_v of_o all_o people_n most_o miserable_a and_o therefore_o when_o there_o be_v a_o rumour_n spread_v concern_v st._n john_n 15.17_o that_o he_o shall_v never_o die_v he_o himself_o ch._n 21.23_o rectify_v the_o mistake_n yet_o jesus_n say_v not_o unto_o he_o he_o shall_v not_o die_v as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v god_n forbid_v i_o shall_v be_v so_o miserable_a as_o never_o to_o die_v though_o a_o man_n in_o christ_n can_v live_v for_o ever_o in_o this_o world_n and_o be_v always_o young_a rich_a and_o healthful_a yet_o he_o will_v account_v himself_o most_o miserable_a because_o while_o he_o be_v here_o he_o be_v absent_a from_o christ_n who_o be_v his_o life_n and_o from_o god_n who_o be_v his_o happiness_n and_o full_a of_o sin_n which_o be_v his_o great_a burden_n and_o therefore_o as_o jacob_n rejoice_v when_o he_o see_v the_o chariot_n which_o shall_v carry_v he_o to_o his_o son_n joseph_n so_o shall_v the_o people_n of_o god_n rejoice_v when_o death_n approach_v which_o will_v carry_v they_o to_o christ._n and_o as_o god_n say_v to_o jacob_n fear_v not_o to_o go_v down_o to_o egypt_n 46.4_o for_o i_o will_v go_v down_o with_o thou_o and_o i_o will_v also_o sure_o bring_v thou_o up_o again_o so_o methinks_v i_o hear_v god_n say_v to_o all_o his_o child_n fear_v not_o to_o go_v down_o to_o the_o house_n of_o rottenness_n for_o i_o will_v go_v with_o you_o
