lie_v upon_o a_o deathbed_n we_o have_v strange_a notion_n about_o these_o whilst_o all_o be_v well_o with_o we_o judge_v there_o be_v but_o little_a goodness_n in_o the_o one_o but_o little_a evil_n in_o the_o other_o ah_o but_o sickness_n and_o death_n will_v undeceive_v we_o and_o alter_v our_o apprehension_n about_o they_o you_o that_o take_v sinful_a profane_a course_n now_o how_o will_v

so_o profane_v the_o sabbath_n so_o neglect_v god_n live_v in_o such_o excess_n of_o riot_n uncleanness_n whoredom_n and_o whatever_o be_v naught_o how_o will_v thou_o then_o cry_v out_o oh_o will_v

in_o this_o distress_n nothing_o at_o all_o pray_v think_v of_o this_o and_o reform_v your_o course_n before_o it_o be_v too_o late_o this_o be_v the_o great_a motive_n to_o sincerity_n peace_n at_o the_o end_n here_o be_v three_o question_n to_o be_v answer_v 1._o q._n have_v the_o upright_a godly_a man_n no_o peace_n before_o his_o end_n have_v he_o only_a peace_n at_o his_o death_n none_o in_o life_n be_v all_o his_o peace_n and_o comfort_n reserve_v for_o a_o die_a hour_n answ_n not_o so_o he_o have_v peace_n in_o life_n as_o well_o as_o at_o death_n he_o live_v with_o it_o have_v it_o abide_v in_o he_o if_o he_o do_v not_o lose_v it_o by_o sin_v against_o god_n great_a peace_n have_v they_o that_o love_v thy_o law_n psal_n 119.165_o the_o work_n of_o righteousness_n shall_v be_v peace_n and_o the_o effect_n of_o righteousness_n quietness_n and_o assurance_n for_o ever_o isa_n 32.17_o thou_o will_v keep_v he_o in_o perfect_a peace_n hebr._n peace_n peace_n who_o mind_n be_v stay_v on_o thou_o isa_n 26.3_o the_o perfect_a man_n have_v perfect_a man._n peace_n i_o leave_v with_o you_o my_o peace_n i_o give_v unto_o you_o joh._n 14.27_o these_o thing_n have_v i_o speak_v that_o in_o i_o you_o may_v have_v peace_n joh._n 16.33_o 2_o cor._n 6.10_o yet_o always_o rejoice_v a_o good_a conscience_n be_v a_o continual_a feast_n but_o why_o then_o be_v it_o say_v the_o end_n of_o that_o man_n be_v peace_n 1._o because_o then_o especial_o and_o eminent_o the_o people_n of_o god_n have_v this_o peace_n they_o need_v it_o more_o than_o than_o at_o other_o time_n and_o therefore_o they_o have_v more_o of_o it_o then_o oh_o when_o they_o be_v grapple_v with_o the_o pang_n of_o death_n just_o launch_v out_o into_o boundless_a eternity_n how_o do_v they_o then_o want_v this_o peace_n wherefore_o then_o the_o gracious_a god_n vouchsafe_v it_o to_o they_o in_o a_o high_a degree_n than_o before_o 2._o because_o than_o their_o peace_n be_v of_o the_o great_a use_n and_o efficacy_n to_o work_v on_o other_o to_o draw_v they_o in_o to_o god_n and_o to_o make_v they_o think_v well_o of_o his_o way_n therefore_o it_o please_v god_n sometime_o to_o let_v his_o people_n be_v without_o this_o peace_n in_o their_o life_n time_n because_o than_o it_o will_v not_o so_o much_o be_v take_v notice_n of_o but_o when_o they_o come_v to_o die_v when_o many_o eye_n be_v upon_o they_o to_o observe_v what_o comfort_n they_o have_v then_o than_o they_o have_v it_o and_o by_o this_o spectator_n be_v bring_v to_o judge_v well_o both_o of_o the_o person_n and_o also_o of_o the_o practice_n of_o these_o that_o be_v so_o full_a of_o comfort_n in_o such_o a_o time_n of_o need_n 2._o q._n have_v all_o upright_o soul_n this_o peace_n at_o their_o end_n be_v the_o end_n of_o every_o godly_a man_n peace_n do_v all_o such_o when_o they_o come_v to_o die_v die_v with_o this_o comfort_n answ_n i_o dare_v not_o say_v so_o i_o have_v reason_n to_o believe_v that_o many_o live_v without_o this_o peace_n and_o die_v too_o without_o this_o peace_n who_o yet_o be_v true_o gracious_a some_o want_v it_o in_o life_n but_o then_o possible_o they_o have_v it_o at_o death_n as_o the_o martyr_n now_o he_o be_v come_v he_o be_v come_v some_o have_v it_o in_o life_n but_o then_o want_v it_o when_o they_o come_v to_o die_v god_n at_o the_o last_o withdraw_v their_o peace_n and_o cause_v their_o sun_n to_o set_v in_o a_o dark_a cloud_n thus_o it_o sometime_o fare_v with_o some_o who_o grace_n here_o and_o salvation_n hereafter_o i_o dare_v not_o question_v other_o go_v without_o it_o in_o the_o sensible_a part_n of_o it_o both_o in_o life_n and_o in_o death_n that_o be_v fad_a indeed_o true_a grace_n be_v in_o their_o heart_n but_o yet_o this_o peace_n from_o god_n be_v not_o in_o their_o heart_n it_o please_v god_n very_o much_o to_o show_v his_o sovereignty_n in_o his_o various_a deal_n with_o his_o people_n as_o to_o sensible_a comfort_n but_o then_o this_o we_o may_v say_v as_o to_o every_o sincere_a and_o upright_a christian_a 1._o ordinary_o and_o common_o he_o have_v this_o peace_n at_o his_o end_n it_o be_v but_o now_o and_o then_o that_o god_n
