god_n himself_o shall_v have_v his_o be_v this_o be_v a_o great_a thing_n no_o doubt_n of_o it_o and_o shock_n man_n mind_n but_o let_v we_o consider_v what_o we_o have_v in_o the_o knowledge_n of_o god_n and_o his_o work_n which_o may_v further_o we_o in_o the_o belief_n of_o it_o and_o first_o we_o be_v to_o consider_v that_o though_o it_o be_v a_o wonderful_a thing_n that_o frail_a man_n shall_v continue_v for_o ever_o yet_o the_o eternal_a duration_n itself_o must_v real_o be_v whether_o we_o shall_v be_v alive_a in_o it_o or_o be_v dead_a thing_n that_o must_v run_v its_o endless_a course_n and_o as_o there_o must_v of_o necessity_n be_v a_o eternity_n of_o time_n and_o duration_n so_o through_o it_o all_o god_n almighty_n must_v as_o necessary_o have_v his_o be_v and_o be_v perfect_a as_o he_o be_v now_o in_o wisdom_n power_n and_o goodness_n and_o though_o we_o may_v not_o say_v it_o be_v necessary_a yet_o i_o dare_v say_v any_o man_n will_v grant_v it_o a_o thousand_o time_n more_o likely_a that_o through_o all_o that_o eternity_n god_n will_v preserve_v a_o world_n and_o creature_n in_o be_v that_o as_o there_o be_v now_o so_o there_o may_v always_o be_v before_o he_o creature_n who_o shall_v feel_v themselves_o happy_a out_o of_o his_o store_n and_o praise_v his_o bounty_n we_o may_v not_o say_v god_n will_v have_v it_o so_o because_o it_o will_v be_v any_o accession_n to_o his_o own_o happiness_n and_o yet_o to_o a_o beneficent_a good_a be_v the_o communicate_v his_o happiness_n to_o creature_n who_o shall_v be_v able_a to_o know_v the_o giver_n look_v so_o very_o like_a to_o a_o true_a pleasure_n and_o satisfaction_n that_o it_o be_v one_o of_o the_o thing_n man_n wonder_v at_o why_o god_n begin_v so_o late_o as_o six_o thousand_o year_n since_o to_o create_v and_o some_o rather_o than_o suppose_v that_o god_n will_v ever_o be_v without_o a_o world_n and_o such_o sensible_a creature_n before_o he_o they_o venture_v to_o say_v that_o there_o must_v have_v be_v other_o world_n before_o this_o of_o we_o now_o not_o to_o speak_v of_o this_o because_o it_o be_v one_o of_o those_o many_o point_n we_o be_v not_o able_a to_o fathom_n we_o learn_v so_o much_o from_o it_o certain_o that_o the_o common_a sense_n of_o mankind_n be_v so_o far_o from_o think_v it_o unlikely_a that_o god_n shall_v have_v a_o world_n and_o creature_n before_o he_o always_o in_o be_v that_o they_o be_v for_o believe_v elder_a and_o more_o in_o the_o time_n that_o be_v past_a but_o this_o be_v only_o by_o the_o way_n we_o see_v that_o since_o eternity_n must_v be_v and_o since_o god_n almighty_n must_v of_o necessity_n be_v through_o it_o all_o it_o be_v easy_a to_o grant_v that_o god_n will_v also_o have_v creature_n always_o before_o he_o the_o point_n than_o come_v to_o this_o whether_o be_v most_o likely_a that_o god_n shall_v choose_v to_o continue_v creature_n before_o he_o by_o give_v eternity_n to_o the_o soul_n of_o man_n or_o by_o let_v they_o die_v and_o end_n as_o they_o do_v in_o appearance_n and_o by_o raise_v up_o other_o new_a one_o in_o their_o place_n and_o for_o this_o point_n if_o the_o soul_n of_o man_n be_v real_o abolish_v and_o end_n at_o death_n i_o do_v not_o know_v but_o we_o may_v say_v that_o they_o be_v the_o only_a substance_n in_o the_o whole_a compass_n of_o being_n that_o be_v so_o the_o reason_n why_o i_o speak_v thus_o be_v that_o principle_n in_o philosophy_n which_o i_o suppose_v be_v uncontroverted_a that_o the_o destruction_n of_o all_o material_a being_n be_v not_o a_o real_a end_n or_o abolition_n of_o their_o substance_n and_o be_v but_o a_o change_n into_o something_o else_o and_o through_o all_o their_o transmutation_n there_o be_v not_o a_o particle_n of_o their_o real_a substance_n lose_v but_o if_o the_o soul_n of_o man_n do_v not_o live_v in_o their_o proper_a person_n they_o be_v abolish_v and_o be_v extinct_a for_o no_o body_n ever_o dream_v of_o their_o be_v change_v into_o any_o other_o form_n that_o shall_v preserve_v their_o substance_n i_o do_v not_o lay_v much_o weight_n upon_o this_o but_o it_o do_v not_o seem_v probable_a that_o the_o most_o excellent_a substance_n that_o god_n have_v make_v shall_v be_v less_o fix_v in_o nature_n and_o be_v than_o the_o mean_a and_o most_o contemptible_a and_o if_o it_o be_v not_o than_o it_o follow_v strong_o that_o the_o soul_n do_v not_o end_n at_o death_n but_o only_o suffer_v a_o natural_a periodical_a change_n and_z continues_z in_o such_o a_o state_n and_o way_n as_o god_n have_v prepare_v for_o it_o but_o let_v this_o be_v as_o it_o will_v i_o build_v not_o upon_o it_o the_o point_n i_o shall_v argue_v from_o be_v what_o the_o text_n offer_v we_o the_o mind_n of_o god_n towards_o his_o creature_n that_o be_v which_o seem_v most_o likely_a that_o god_n shall_v preserve_v creature_n before_o he_o by_o continue_v these_o or_o that_o he_o shall_v suffer_v these_o to_o fall_v back_o out_o of_o be_v and_o raise_v up_o new_a one_o in_o their_o stead_n for_o ever_o and_o if_o the_o question_n be_v put_v concern_v mere_a animal_n who_o dissolution_n be_v make_v without_o any_o grief_n or_o sorrow_n or_o reflection_n of_o their_o own_o mind_n about_o it_o we_o shall_v not_o need_v to_o look_v far_o for_o a_o answer_n or_o if_o it_o be_v put_v concern_v a_o inanimate_a god_n i._n e._n concern_v dead_a nature_n and_o a_o chain_n of_o cause_n that_o be_v suppose_v to_o have_v circulate_v mankind_n into_o life_n the_o cause_n themselves_o not_o know_v how_o a_o short_a answer_n will_v have_v serve_v that_o also_o for_o no_o doubt_n but_o as_o nature_n and_o cause_n have_v put_v man_n together_o without_o know_v what_o they_o do_v they_o will_v have_v let_v we_o fall_v again_o into_o piece_n as_o soon_o as_o our_o ingredient_n move_v that_o way_n but_o the_o question_n be_v put_v concern_v a_o very_a live_a god_n and_o being_n that_o god_n have_v raise_v to_o a_o high_a degree_n of_o life_n and_o communication_n with_o himself_o for_o we_o be_v make_v by_o that_o wise_a creator_n who_o we_o daily_a worship_n he_o have_v lay_v in_o our_o nature_n the_o ground_n of_o such_o understanding_n and_o knowledge_n of_o himself_o and_o work_n as_o inable_v we_o for_o a_o divine_a intercourse_n and_o love_n and_o all_o the_o happy_a passion_n which_o follow_v from_o a_o humble_a worship_n and_o reasonable_a service_n of_o himself_o he_o have_v give_v we_o to_o taste_v a_o thousand_o pleasure_n with_o judgement_n and_o reflection_n and_o add_v clear_a notion_n of_o a_o high_a happiness_n and_o of_o the_o vast_a difference_n of_o enjoy_v of_o it_o for_o the_o short_a term_n of_o threescore_o year_n and_o ten_o and_o of_o enjoy_v of_o it_o always_o and_o after_o this_o i_o need_v not_o add_v it_o as_o another_o gift_n for_o there_o must_v of_o necessity_n follow_v from_o these_o strong_a desire_n to_o continue_v always_o if_o it_o may_v be_v in_o life_n and_o happiness_n for_o no_o creature_n can_v be_v so_o temperate_o indifferent_a to_o its_o own_o happiness_n as_o to_o see_v life_n and_o god_n and_o his_o work_n and_o not_o desire_v if_o it_o be_v possible_a to_o continue_v in_o life_n among_o they_o and_o be_v happy_a with_o they_o and_o therefore_o the_o whole_a reasonable_a creation_n groan_n and_o travel_n with_o desire_n of_o life_n even_o nature_n in_o all_o of_o we_o make_v vehement_a prayer_n and_o many_o have_v add_v excellent_a virtue_n and_o service_n and_o obedience_n and_o even_o voluntary_a death_n and_o martyrdom_n for_o god_n honour_n in_o hope_n to_o move_v god_n by_o they_o that_o they_o may_v not_o die_v indeed_o and_o since_o god_n will_v have_v creature_n ever_o before_o he_o be_v it_o impossible_a to_o be_v think_v that_o these_o shall_v be_v they_o i_o will_v not_o say_v on_o the_o other_o side_n that_o in_o a_o moral_a sense_n it_o be_v necessary_a they_o shall_v but_o i_o will_v say_v that_o one_o single_a miracle_n and_o promise_v of_o god_n shall_v be_v sufficient_a to_o satisfy_v all_o mankind_n that_o they_o will_n for_o after_o god_n have_v raise_v creature_n to_o such_o a_o intercourse_n with_o himself_o and_o sense_n of_o thing_n and_o and_o vehement_a necessary_a desire_n of_o live_v a_o turn_n of_o they_o out_o of_o be_v when_o he_o can_v continue_v they_o with_o a_o word_n look_n like_o a_o severe_a act._n if_o indeed_o god_n have_v not_o create_v we_o not_o be_v have_v be_v no_o affliction_n but_o to_o bring_v such_o a_o excellent_a creature_n so_o near_o to_o happiness_n that_o he_o may_v tear_v away_o his_o long_a eye_n from_o enjoy_v it_o to_o bring_v he_o into_o be_v that_o he_o may_v have_v a_o sorrowful_a exit_fw-la we_o must_v speak_v indeed_o
