more_o than_o it_o be_v possible_a for_o death_n to_o become_v life_n hence_o it_o be_v suitable_o call_v a_o inheritance_n incorruptible_a undefiled_a that_o fade_v not_o away_o 1._o pet._n 1.4_o those_o that_o shall_v possess_v this_o crown_n be_v immortal_a in_o their_o soul_n and_o shall_v be_v make_v immortal_a in_o their_o body_n that_o god_n who_o enjoyment_n make_v heaven_n be_v the_o

the_o saint_n in_o heaven_n be_v indeed_o a_o crown_n of_o life_n a_o everlasting_a crown_n a_o inheritance_n that_o never_o fade_v away_o but_o 2._o we_o have_v in_o these_o word_n further_o the_o reason_n the_o apostle_n give_v why_o so_o it_o be_v that_o they_o that_o endure_v temptation_n shall_v enjoy_v the_o crown_n of_o life_n and_o that_o consist_v in_o the_o last_o word_n it_o be_v no_o other_o than_o what_o god_n have_v promise_v to_o they_o that_o love_v he_o if_o they_o that_o love_n god_n above_o all_o and_o take_v he_o for_o their_o portion_n and_o everlasting_a rest_a place_n shall_v enjoy_v this_o crown_n of_o life_n if_o god_n who_o be_v true_a to_o his_o word_n and_o faithful_a to_o his_o promise_n have_v promise_v this_o crown_n to_o all_o such_o then_o certain_o it_o will_v follow_v that_o they_o who_o endure_v temptation_n shall_v enjoy_v this_o crown_n for_o they_o that_o endure_v temptation_n that_o be_v that_o choose_v suffer_v and_o persecution_n yea_o death_n itself_o rather_o then_o wilful_a sin_n and_o that_o do_v eye_n god_n by_o faith_n and_o patience_n and_o quiet_o submit_v to_o the_o divine_a will_n in_o all_o their_o suffering_n these_o must_v needs_o be_v person_n who_o do_v true_o love_n god_n above_o all_o and_o have_v choose_v he_o for_o their_o everlasting_a portion_n and_o blessedness_n and_o therefore_o they_o must_v needs_o be_v the_o person_n that_o shall_v enjoy_v the_o crown_n of_o life_n but_o 3._o and_o last_o we_o have_v further_o in_o these_o word_n the_o limitation_n of_o time_n when_o such_o person_n shall_v come_v to_o the_o enjoyment_n of_o this_o crown_n of_o life_n after_o they_o be_v try_v for_o when_o he_o be_v try_v he_o shall_v receive_v the_o crown_n of_o life_n after_o that_o his_o faithfulness_n have_v be_v try_v and_o approve_v by_o affliction_n and_o persecution_n and_o temptation_n after_o it_o have_v be_v make_v appear_v that_o his_o trial_n and_o temptation_n can_v not_o prevail_v with_o he_o to_o forsake_v god_n and_o apostatise_v from_o he_o than_o he_o shall_v receive_v the_o crown_n of_o life_n this_o be_v the_o usual_a way_n and_o method_n of_o god_n even_o that_o way_n which_o he_o appoint_v for_o his_o own_o son_n to_o make_v the_o cross_n to_o be_v the_o way_n to_o the_o crown_n to_o try_v his_o servant_n first_o by_o affliction_n and_o suffering_n and_o then_o to_o receive_v they_o to_o glory_n and_o give_v they_o the_o crown_n of_o life_n but_o when_o this_o be_v do_v when_o he_o have_v sufficient_o try_v and_o exercise_v his_o servant_n and_o he_o alone_o know_v when_o this_o be_v sufficient_o do_v than_o they_o shall_v receive_v the_o crown_n of_o life_n which_o the_o lord_n have_v promise_v to_o they_o that_o love_v he_o which_o be_v the_o last_o consideration_n whence_o it_o do_v appear_v that_o such_o person_n as_o do_v thus_o endure_v affliction_n and_o temptation_n be_v happy_a and_o bless_a person_n now_o last_o for_o the_o use_n and_o improvement_n of_o what_o have_v be_v speak_v 1._o it_o teach_v we_o how_o to_o behave_v ourselves_o with_o relation_n to_o affliction_n and_o persecution_n which_o we_o may_v meet_v with_o in_o the_o course_n of_o our_o life_n on_o the_o one_o hand_n we_o shall_v not_o court_v they_o or_o run_v ourselves_o wilful_o into_o they_o that_o be_v unwarrantable_a because_o at_o best_a they_o be_v trial_n and_o temptation_n apt_a to_o shake_v our_o constancy_n and_o to_o hurry_v we_o into_o some_o measure_n of_o sin_n against_o god_n on_o the_o other_o hand_n we_o shall_v not_o be_v over_o much_o prejudice_v against_o they_o but_o rather_o choose_v affliction_n and_o persecution_n than_o a_o course_n of_o know_a and_o wilful_a sin_n and_o when_o we_o be_v under_o affliction_n behave_v ourselves_o with_o that_o patience_n and_o quiet_a submission_n to_o the_o will_n of_o god_n which_o become_v person_n that_o live_v by_o faith_n and_o not_o by_o sense_n mere_o the_o reason_n of_o all_o this_o be_v plain_a because_o that_o affliction_n when_o thus_o choose_v and_o endure_v do_v but_o prepare_v and_o fit_v the_o soul_n for_o eternal_a happiness_n and_o blessedness_n he_o be_v the_o bless_a man_n that_o thus_o endure_v temptation_n for_o when_o he_o have_v be_v try_v he_o shall_v receive_v the_o crown_n of_o life_n we_o may_v hence_o comfort_v ourselves_o with_o relation_n to_o the_o death_n and_o departure_n of_o such_o friend_n who_o have_v it_o may_v be_v be_v exercise_v with_o great_a affliction_n and_o temptation_n yet_o have_v endure_v they_o have_v submit_v with_o any_o good_a measure_n of_o patience_n to_o the_o will_n of_o god_n in_o they_o and_o this_o from_o a_o principle_n of_o repentance_n and_o faith_n in_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n through_o christ_n concern_v such_o we_o have_v much_o reason_n to_o comfort_v ourselves_o with_o hope_n that_o by_o their_o death_n they_o be_v enter_v into_o a_o state_n of_o blessedness_n that_o god_n have_v sufficient_o try_v they_o and_o purify_v they_o in_o the_o furnace_n of_o affliction_n have_v suitable_o by_o death_n receive_v they_o to_o that_o place_n and_o state_n wherein_o they_o enjoy_v the_o crown_n of_o life_n which_o the_o lord_n have_v promise_v to_o they_o that_o love_n he_o more_o particular_o there_o seem_v to_o be_v in_o the_o word_n a_o

more_o ordinary_a he_o have_v for_o several_a year_n be_v exercise_v and_o of_o late_o more_o frequent_o than_o in_o former_a time_n by_o those_o two_o severe_a disease_n the_o stone_n and_o the_o

be_v esteem_v to_o be_v both_o acute_a and_o cronical_a too_o sharp_a in_o their_o pain_n and_o long_o in_o their_o duration_n and_o continuance_n his_o last_o fit_a of_o the_o stone_n that_o which_o

1._o as_o for_o his_o behaviour_n under_o those_o great_a pain_n which_o he_o be_v frequent_o visit_v with_o beside_o the_o know_a and_o exemplary_a holiness_n and_o regularity_n of_o his_o life_n for_o many_o year_n in_o this_o place_n of_o which_o all_o of_o you_o be_v sufficient_a witness_n and_o his_o constant_a attendance_n upon_o his_o ministry_n when_o at_o any_o time_n free_a from_o

that_o he_o be_v a_o bless_a man_n blessed_n be_v the_o man_n that_o endure_v temptation_n i_o need_v not_o stand_v long_o to_o explain_v the_o nature_n of_o true_a blessedness_n let_v it_o suffice_v for_o the_o present_a that_o true_a blessedness_n so_o far_o as_o attainable_a here_o in_o this_o world_n consist_v in_o the_o love_n and_o favour_n of_o god_n through_o christ_n and_o in_o a_o

and_o this_o will_v be_v evident_a if_o we_o consider_v 1._o that_o this_o be_v plain_o assert_v concern_v a_o patient_a endure_v of_o some_o kind_n of_o affliction_n and_o temptation_n i_o mean_v

further_o consider_v that_o this_o endure_a temptation_n as_o it_o have_v be_v before_o explain_v do_v carry_v in_o it_o necessary_o the_o exercise_n of_o grace_n of_o faith_n and_o patience_n and_o

such_o be_v their_o sinfulness_n their_o sottish_a ignorance_n and_o carelessness_n of_o the_o welfare_n of_o their_o soul_n that_o we_o have_v no_o reason_n to_o think_v or_o believe_v that_o they_o be_v likely_a to_o be_v happy_a and_o bless_a in_o that_o other_o world_n but_o when_o man_n do_v endure_v affliction_n and_o temptation_n so_o as_o to_o exercise_v the_o grace_n of_o god_n under_o
