the_o strong_a come_v sweetness_n to_o they_o that_o be_v christ_n the_o bitterness_n of_o death_n be_v past_a any_o child_n of_o god_n may_v now_o play_v upon_o the_o hole_n of_o this_o asp_n death_n it_o be_v now_o to_o they_o a_o sleep_n a_o change_n a_o gather_n to_o their_o father_n compare_v revel_v 20.6.14_o v_o compare_v and_o it_o have_v be_v observe_v that_o in_o the_o revelation_n sometime_o it_o do_v not_o go_v in_o account_n as_o worthy_a of_o the_o name_n of_o death_n for_o then_o the_o death_n of_o the_o soul_n in_o hell_n which_o be_v call_v the_o second_o death_n shall_v have_v be_v call_v the_o three_o death_n but_o if_o it_o be_v any_o thing_n we_o be_v assure_v 1_o cor._n 15._o that_o it_o shall_v be_v destroy_v death_n be_v swallow_v up_o of_o victory_n v._o 54._o and_o revel_v 20.14_o we_o read_v that_o death_n and_o hell_n be_v both_o cast_v into_o the_o lake_n of_o fire_n and_o brimstone_n so_o that_o those_o that_o be_v christ_n need_n not_o fear_v either_o the_o one_o or_o the_o other_o 5_o in_o that_o christ_n by_o die_v have_v procure_v the_o key_n of_o hell_n and_o death_n to_o be_v lay_v upon_o his_o shoulder_n and_o none_o of_o he_o shall_v go_v into_o the_o chamber_n of_o death_n till_o he_o open_v the_o door_n and_o that_o he_o will_v not_o do_v until_o he_o have_v make_v and_o perfume_v their_o bed_n for_o they_o and_o until_o it_o be_v the_o best_a time_n for_o they_o to_o go_v take_v their_o rest_n and_o as_o for_o hell_n you_o may_v be_v sure_o he_o will_v bar_v and_o bolt_n the_o gate_n of_o hell_n so_o that_o christian_n need_v not_o fear_v it_o they_o shall_v never_o go_v thither_o beside_o christ_n will_v redeem_v they_o from_o death_n by_o a_o glorious_a resurrection_n of_o their_o body_n at_o the_o last_o day_n and_o now_o if_o any_o say_v in_o their_o heart_n what_o then_o must_v christian_n for_o ever_o cast_v of_o all_o fear_n and_o rejoice_v in_o it_o as_o their_o portion_n purchase_v for_o they_o by_o the_o suffering_n and_o death_n of_o christ_n i_o answer_v 1_o that_o christian_n ought_v notwithstanding_o all_o that_o have_v be_v say_v to_o fear_n god_n with_o a_o awful_a reverential_a fear_n and_o to_o have_v reverend_a thought_n of_o he_o and_o demean_v themselves_o reverent_o before_o he_o as_o become_v dust_n and_o ash_n especial_o when_o he_o manifest_v himself_o to_o and_o before_o they_o either_o in_o his_o holy_a word_n and_o ordinance_n or_o in_o his_o extraordinary_a work_n and_o providence_n so_o moses_n say_v 12.21_o heb._n 12.21_o i_o exceed_o fear_v and_o quake_v when_o god_n come_v down_o on_o mount_n sinai_n 2.12_o isa_n 66.2_o philip._n 2.12_o and_o to_o he_o will_v i_o look_v say_v god_n that_o tremble_v at_o my_o word_n 2_o christian_n aught_o notwithstanding_o all_o that_o have_v be_v say_v to_o take_v heed_n lest_o they_o fall_v to_o work_v out_o their_o salvation_n with_o fear_n and_o tremble_a they_o ought_v to_o serve_v their_o master_n in_o heaven_n with_o fear_n and_o tremble_a my_o flesh_n tremble_v for_o fear_n of_o thou_o and_o i_o be_o afraid_a of_o thy_o judgement_n psal_n 119.120_o i_o e._n they_o ought_v to_o have_v a_o watchful_a careful_a heedful_a fear_n that_o they_o do_v not_o offend_v or_o displease_v god_n at_o any_o time_n we_o must_v not_o cast_v overboard_o such_o a_o religious_a fear_n as_o make_v noah_n build_v a_o ark_n for_o the_o save_n of_o himself_o and_o his_o house_n but_o as_o for_o such_o fear_n as_o like_o jonah_n shall_v occasion_v such_o storm_n and_o tempest_n that_o though_o we_o row_v hard_a and_o tug_v hard_a yet_o we_o can_v bring_v the_o vessel_n safe_a to_o shore_n let_v it_o be_v cast_v out_o 3_o yet_o i_o say_v that_o christ_n have_v free_v they_o by_o his_o holy_a life_n and_o innocent_a death_n from_o anxious_a distract_n perplex_v torment_a fear_n either_o of_o temporal_a or_o eternal_a death_n such_o a_o fear_n as_o may_v make_v they_o fly_v to_o god_n as_o may_v consist_v with_o love_n to_o god_n and_o goodness_n such_o a_o fear_n of_o his_o goodness_n and_o mercy_n as_o consist_v with_o hope_n in_o his_o mercy_n such_o a_o fear_n they_o have_v and_o may_v and_o aught_o to_o have_v and_o yet_o be_v good_a servant_n and_o no_o base_a spirit_v or_o base_a principled_a slave_n and_o yet_o be_v love_a child_n and_o not_o bastard_n no_o unworthy_a base_a spirit_a child_n yea_o last_o so_o far_o as_o they_o be_v unregenerate_a the_o fear_n of_o suffering_n may_v be_v a_o bridle_n to_o lust_n and_o a_o spur_n to_o duty_n yea_o they_o may_v make_v use_n of_o the_o threaten_n in_o the_o word_n to_o deter_v they_o from_o offend_v and_o as_o a_o motive_n or_o mean_n to_o keep_v close_o to_o the_o way_n which_o be_v call_v holy_a we_o find_v that_o god_n use_v a_o commination_n even_o to_o adam_n in_o innocency_n in_o case_n of_o disobedience_n in_o the_o day_n thou_o eat_v thereof_o thou_o shall_v sure_o die_v gen._n 2.17_o again_o if_o any_o say_v further_o in_o their_o heart_n how_o can_v this_o man_n save_o we_o he_o do_v not_o save_v himself_o from_o the_o fear_n of_o death_n and_o how_o can_v he_o save_v other_o and_o if_o we_o read_v math._n 26._o from_o v._o 38._o to_o 42._o and_o heb._n 5.7_o we_o may_v have_v cause_n to_o think_v that_o christ_n himself_o fear_v death_n and_o then_o how_o can_v he_o deliver_v we_o from_o it_o i_o answer_v that_o christ_n do_v fear_v death_n but_o that_o his_o fear_n be_v not_o inordinate_a that_o it_o be_v principal_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n the_o terror_n of_o the_o almighty_a which_o make_v he_o pray_v with_o strong_a cry_n and_o tear_n unto_o god_n he_o do_v conflict_n with_o death_n in_o its_o full_a strength_n with_o the_o serpent_n with_o its_o sting_n and_o poison_n in_o it_o christ_n endure_v the_o pain_n of_o sense_n in_o the_o garden_n when_o he_o say_v my_o soul_n be_v exceed_o sorrowful_a even_o to_o the_o death_n the_o pain_n of_o loss_n when_o he_o be_v crucify_v on_o the_o tree_n and_o cry_v out_o my_o god_n my_o god_n why_o have_v thou_o forsake_v i_o where_o though_o the_o grace_n of_o vision_n be_v for_o a_o time_n withdraw_v from_o christ_n yet_o the_o grace_n of_o union_n and_o unction_n still_o continue_v the_o same_o so_o that_o as_o christ_n enter_v into_o the_o first_o degree_n of_o the_o first_o death_n his_o soul_n and_o body_n be_v real_o separate_v but_o not_o into_o the_o second_o i_o e._n his_o body_n do_v not_o see_v corruption_n so_o he_o enter_v only_o into_o the_o first_o degree_n of_o the_o 2_o death_n the_o light_n of_o god_n countenance_n be_v hide_v towards_o he_o for_o a_o while_n as_o it_o be_v under_o a_o cloud_n but_o god_n do_v not_o whole_o forsake_v he_o nor_o be_v he_o total_o separate_v from_o god_n and_o true_o god_n hear_v the_o prayer_n of_o christ_n that_o prayer_n of_o he_o upon_o the_o cross_n 23.46_o luk._n 23.46_o father_n into_o thy_o hand_n i_o commend_v my_o spirit_n i.e._n say_v one_o father_n

fear_n and_o so_o make_v the_o sense_n of_o heb._n 5.7_o where_o it_o be_v say_v that_o christ_n be_v hear_v 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d to_o be_v he_o be_v hear_v for_o his_o great_a piety_n and_o devotion_n and_o not_o that_o he_o be_v save_v from_o or_o out_o of_o the_o thing_n which_o he_o fear_v namely_o out_o of_o death_n imply_v that_o christ_n fear_v death_n but_o therefore_o christ_n fear_v it_o so_o much_o that_o we_o may_v not_o fear_v it_o so_o if_o any_o far_o examine_v i_o what_o be_v the_o reason_n then_o that_o good_a man_n oftentimes_o be_v so_o unwilling_a to_o die_v and_o so_o fearful_a of_o death_n we_o read_v of_o good_a hezekiah_n that_o at_o the_o tiding_n of_o death_n he_o turn_v his_o face_n to_o the_o wall_n and_o weep_v sore_o i_o answer_v 1_o concern_v

rise_v again_o in_o his_o posterity_n 2_o that_o he_o have_v new_o make_v a_o glorious_a reformation_n and_o know_v not_o but_o that_o after_o his_o decease_n the_o worship_n of_o dead_a idol_n may_v
