Onesiphorus that found out Paul in a way of Compassionate visitation Mercy found out him in a way of answerable compensation And so it shall likewise be with all others besides There 's no man that does any Good which shall go unrewarded for it Rev. 14.13 But then when he rests from his labours his works shall follow him Yea let the Good which he does be never so secret and private yet it shall also be found out Secret prayers and secret alms and secret mournings and humiliations for sin Matth. 6 6. Thy Father that sees in secret will reward thee openly There are some which can do no Great matters except all the world take notice of them and applaud them and cry them up making their Greatest contentment to lye in their incouragements from Men But these are things which will soon wear off and come to nothing When all comes to all this will be our Greatest Rejoycing The Testimony of a Good Conscience That in the sense of our manifold Infirmities we have indeavovred to discharge our Duties and to approve our selves to God who will never suffer any of us to be loosers by his service but in all the dis-regards of the world will himself bestow upon us a full reward A Reward in our Consciences 2 Ich. v 8. And a Reward in our Conditions And a Reward in Heaven it self which is the Great Reward of all What ever good we have done it will sooner or later find us out and especially then when we have greatest need of it In affliction and temptation at the houre of Death and at the Day of Judgement Then will Goodnesse be Goodnesse indeed as well as sin which though we may not rest in it in order to merit and carnall confidence yet we may be very much satisfied from it in order to comfort and self-reflexion and accordingly should often think of these things to quicken us to Duty And now for this ensuing New Yeer let us be hence perswaded to set upon it with a purpose and endeavour of doing all the Good that we can and to make amends for any former neglects To serve God in our severall opportunities and to be advantagious to the Good of his Church and that Cause which himself owns in the world and will own So shall the Lord himself take pleasure in us and delight to do us good to blesse us in our persons and to blesse us in our counsels and to blesse us in our undertakings and to blesse us in our whole Kingdom and to continue to be a God unto us and to all Posterity after us even to succeeding Generations But if ye will not do so behold ye have sinned against the Lord and be sure your sin will find you out 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 FINIS The Names of the Preachers before the Parliament Anno 1646.
