have_v thou_o know_v at_o the_o least_o in_o this_o thy_o day_n the_o thing_n that_o belong_v unto_o thy_o peace_n but_o now_o they_o be_v hide_v from_o thy_o eye_n thou_o have_v once_o grace_n offer_v when_o to_o the_o comfort_n of_o thy_o soul_n thou_o may_v have_v say_v o_o lord_n i_o be_o thy_o servant_n but_o now_o no_o long_o will_v he_o be_v thy_o master_n this_o happy_a opportunity_n shall_v never_o be_v recall_v for_o the_o day_n come_v when_o thy_o enemy_n shall_v cast_v a_o trench_n about_o thou_o and_o lay_v thou_o even_o with_o the_o dust_n and_o why_o because_o thou_o know_v not_o the_o time_n of_o thy_o visitation_n the_o neglect_n of_o that_o happy_a day_n wherein_o they_o be_v visit_v with_o mercy_n put_v they_o off_o unto_o the_o terrible_a day_n of_o the_o lord_n to_o the_o visitation_n of_o his_o justice_n now_o because_o among_o many_o of_o those_o way_n of_o god_n which_o be_v unsearchable_a this_o be_v one_o to_o observe_v how_o patient_a he_o be_v with_o some_o man_n give_v they_o day_n after_o day_n even_o to_o the_o last_o hour_n and_o yet_o how_o quick_a he_o be_v with_o other_o come_z come_v present_o and_o give_v a_o account_n of_o thy_o stewardship_n a_o thousand_o time_n blessed_v be_v that_o soul_n which_o every_o day_n be_v prepare_v for_o this_o great_a day_n of_o account_n so_o then_o to_o draw_v all_o to_o a_o conclusion_n we_o read_v in_o the_o revelation_n of_o four_o angel_n let_v loose_a 9_o chap._n 9_o and_o no_o soon_o let_v loose_a but_o present_o prepare_v for_o a_o hour_n and_o a_o day_n and_o a_o month_n and_o a_o year_n to_o slay_v the_o three_o part_n of_o man_n may_v we_o then_o learn_v diligence_n from_o our_o enemy_n and_o let_v not_o they_o be_v more_o careful_a to_o destroy_v our_o soul_n than_o ourselves_o to_o preserve_v they_o but_o may_v we_o all_o be_v prepare_v at_o a_o year_n at_o a_o month_n at_o a_o day_n at_o a_o hour_n to_o say_v and_o do_v as_o we_o say_v o_o lord_n true_o i_o be_o thy_o servant_n i_o be_o thy_o servant_n amen_n serm._n two_o the_o second_o sermon_n john_n 21.22_o if_o i_o will_v that_o he_o tarry_v till_o i_o come_v what_o be_v that_o to_o thou_o follow_v thou_o i_o these_o word_n contain_v a_o sharp_a answer_n of_o our_o saviour_n to_o a_o indiscreet_a and_o unseasonable_a question_n of_o st._n peter_n in_o the_o handle_n whereof_o this_o order_n i_o shall_v observe_v first_o i_o will_v endeavour_v to_o clear_v the_o difficulty_n of_o my_o text_n and_o show_v you_o what_o be_v the_o meaning_n of_o our_o saviour_n answer_n if_o i_o will_v that_o he_o tarry_v till_o i_o come_v and_o second_o i_o will_v commend_v unto_o you_o such_o observation_n as_o may_v prove_v useful_a to_o ourselves_o to_o begin_v then_o with_o the_o first_o if_o i_o will_v that_o he_o tarry_v till_o i_o come_v in_o the_o exposition_n of_o which_o conditional_a speech_n of_o christ_n i_o find_v great_a variety_n among_o interpreter_n some_o will_v admit_v of_o no_o positive_a meaning_n of_o the_o word_n but_o think_v they_o be_v speak_v only_o to_o put_v off_o the_o inquisitive_n of_o peter_n if_o i_o will_v that_o he_o tarry_v till_o i_o come_v or_o as_o we_o use_v to_o say_v if_o i_o will_v that_o he_o tarry_v till_o doomsday_n what_o be_v that_o to_o thou_o not_o that_o he_o intend_v that_o john_n shall_v tarry_v till_o he_o come_v but_o to_o show_v that_o whether_o he_o tarry_v or_o not_o tarry_v that_o be_v nothing_o to_o peter_n but_o this_o exposition_n if_o we_o mark_v it_o will_v neither_o well_o agree_v with_o the_o phrase_n of_o the_o speech_n nor_o the_o wisdom_n of_o the_o speaker_n and_o therefore_o other_o there_o be_v who_o do_v conceive_v that_o whereas_o st._n peter_n be_v to_o die_v of_o a_o violent_a death_n and_o follow_v his_o master_n to_o the_o cross_n it_o may_v be_v the_o meaning_n of_o our_o saviour_n to_o express_v that_o no_o such_o violence_n shall_v be_v offer_v unto_o st._n john_n he_o shall_v die_v of_o a_o fair_a death_n fair_o and_o quiet_o be_v bury_v and_o so_o tarry_v and_o rest_n in_o his_o grave_n till_o christ_n come_v unto_o judgement_n this_o be_v a_o exposition_n i_o confess_v commend_v by_o learned_a interpreter_n on_o all_o side_n yet_o such_o as_o i_o can_v be_v persuade_v to_o approve_v first_o because_o it_o seem_v to_o strain_v the_o phrase_n of_o the_o text_n to_o a_o unusual_a sense_n if_o i_o will_v that_o he_o tarry_v that_o be_v tarry_v in_o his_o grave_n second_o because_o thousand_o there_o be_v who_o may_v thus_o be_v say_v to_o tarry_v till_o christ_n come_v when_o as_o the_o speech_n of_o our_o saviour_n seem_v plain_o to_o intimate_v somewhat_o more_o peculiar_a unto_o john_n three_o because_o the_o ground_n of_o the_o exposition_n be_v very_o questionable_a for_o howsoever_o certain_a it_o be_v that_o peter_n die_v a_o violent_a death_n yet_o whether_o john_n die_v of_o a_o natural_a death_n or_o no_o it_o may_v be_v doubt_v sure_o i_o be_o that_o polycrates_n in_o eusebius_n say_v 23._o lib._n 5._o cap_n 23._o that_o he_o die_v a_o martyr_n and_o theophylact_n confirm_v his_o say_n from_o the_o word_n of_o christ_n himself_o 23._o in_o mat._n 20_o 23._o who_o speak_v of_o james_n and_o john_n say_v express_o that_o they_o shall_v drink_v of_o his_o cup_n and_o be_v baptize_v with_o his_o baptism_n now_o james_n we_o know_v drink_v so_o deep_o of_o this_o cup_n that_o herod_n stretch_v forth_o his_o hand_n and_o kill_v he_o with_o the_o sword_n and_o as_o the_o word_n of_o our_o saviour_n do_v imply_v john_n must_v pledge_v he_o so_o deep_o in_o the_o same_o cup_n either_o as_o a_o martyr_n or_o at_o least_o as_o all_o agree_v as_o a_o confessor_n that_o in_o this_o respect_n the_o word_n in_o my_o text_n can_v seem_v to_o contain_v any_o special_a privilege_n of_o john_n above_o peter_n when_o it_o be_v say_v if_o i_o will_v that_o he_o tarry_v till_o i_o come_v and_o therefore_o a_o three_o exposition_n there_o be_v which_o though_o it_o be_v refuse_v by_o almost_o every_o commentator_n yet_o i_o shall_v now_o endeavour_v to_o assert_v it_o for_o i_o find_v by_o often_o experience_n that_o it_o be_v with_o weigh_v of_o opinion_n as_o with_o weigh_v of_o gold_n that_o which_o in_o one_o pair_n of_o scale_n be_v think_v too_o light_a in_o another_o will_v hold_v weight_n the_o exposition_n be_v this_o that_o however_o as_o our_o saviour_n have_v foretell_v peter_n shall_v more_o speedy_o follow_v he_o follow_v he_o to_o the_o cross_n and_o to_o the_o grave_n he_o shall_v make_v no_o long_a tarry_n here_o on_o earth_n but_o go_v hence_o and_o be_v no_o more_o see_v yet_o it_o be_v his_o will_n that_o john_n shall_v be_v long_o live_v live_v and_o tarry_v till_o he_o come_v till_o he_o come_v to_o execute_v exemplary_a judgement_n on_o the_o unbelieved_a jew_n in_o the_o destruction_n of_o their_o nation_n their_o city_n and_o their_o temple_n till_o the_o same_o judgement_n in_o fearful_a manner_n shall_v attend_v the_o sin_n of_o the_o gentile_n too_o till_o as_o the_o prophet_n joel_n have_v foretell_v have_v first_o come_v with_o a_o gracious_a and_o plentiful_a offer_n of_o his_o spirit_n to_o be_v pour_v upon_o all_o flesh_n upon_o the_o resistance_n of_o this_o spirit_n he_o shall_v come_v again_o with_o wonder_n in_o the_o heaven_n and_o in_o the_o earth_n blood_n and_o fire_n and_o pillar_n of_o smoke_n for_o the_o confirmation_n of_o which_o exposition_n three_o thing_n i_o shall_v observe_v unto_o you_o first_o that_o it_o be_v usual_a in_o holy_a scripture_n to_o imply_v positive_a truth_n in_o conditional_a term_n and_o it_o be_v the_o safe_a way_n in_o expound_v of_o hard_a text_n obscura_fw-la de_fw-fr manifest_a be_v to_o demonstrate_v thing_n obscure_a
