because_o he_o will_v not_o have_v his_o creature_n wear_v out_o with_o a_o tedious_a misery_n and_o transitory_a vanity_n a_o vanity_n of_o misery_n that_o be_v in_o this_o vain_a miserable_a life_n of_o mortality_n i_o have_v do_v with_o the_o four_o a_o five_o thing_n that_o follow_v in_o the_o text_n that_o i_o may_v haste_v on_o we_o have_v hope_n we_o have_v hope_n in_o christ_n we_o have_v

life_n be_v a_o misery_n misery_n there_o be_v the_o five_o and_o this_o be_v a_o certain_a truth_n and_o it_o will_v plain_o appear_v to_o we_o in_o many_o passage_n if_o we_o will_v believe_v either_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n or_o the_o experience_n of_o the_o godly_a i_o shall_v not_o need_v to_o stand_v to_o proveit_v you_o will_v ask_v i_o how_o it_o will_v be_v raise_v from_o this_o

all_o the_o rest_n be_v miserable_a more_o or_o less_o the_o very_a comparison_n that_o be_v use_v do_v manifest_o declare_v unto_o we_o that_o there_o be_v a_o measure_n of_o misery_n to_o every_o

that_o be_v in_o this_o life_n and_o of_o this_o life_n so_o long_o as_o they_o look_v to_o this_o life_n i_o say_v they_o be_v style_v miserable_a but_o the_o best_a thing_n even_o christ_n himself_o

thus_o that_o if_o the_o best_a thing_n in_o this_o life_n be_v miserable_a than_o the_o rest_n be_v no_o better_o than_o so_o that_o the_o best_a be_v no_o better_o it_o be_v plain_a because_o let_v

i_o shall_v never_o see_v death_n he_o mean_v to_o hurt_v himself_o again_o this_o be_v the_o message_n that_o god_n have_v give_v we_o life_n and_o this_o life_n be_v in_o his_o son_n and_o he_o that_o have_v the_o son_n have_v life_n our_o saviour_n jesus_n christ_n come_v into_o the_o world_n as_o the_o apostle_n tell_v we_o that_o he_o may_v destroy_v he_o that_o have_v the_o power_n of_o death_n and_o so_o set_v they_o at_o liberty_n that_o all_o their_o life-time_n be_v in_o bondage_n under_o the_o fear_n of_o death_n and_o saint_n john_n say_v he_o come_v into_o the_o world_n to_o destroy_v the_o work_n of_o the_o devil_n which_o be_v sin_n and_o death_n so_o that_o now_o death_n have_v lose_v his_o sting_n because_o christ_n overcome_v it_o in_o die_v he_o slay_v death_n and_o be_v the_o death_n of_o death_n this_o man_n christ_n god_n and_o man_n he_o offer_v himself_o to_o his_o father_n as_o a_o sacrifice_n for_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o world_n and_o die_v a_o curse_a

and_o so_o i_o have_v do_v with_o the_o first_o point_n the_o second_o be_v enemy_n that_o death_n be_v a_o enemy_n therefore_o the_o apostle_n paul_n tell_v we_o of_o a_o certain_a sting_n it_o have_v oh_o death_n where_o be_v thy_o sting_n it_o be_v a_o arm_a enemy_n it_o come_v as_o a_o serpent_n with_o a_o sting_n that_o enter_v into_o a_o man_n soul_n put_v it_o to_o exream_v perplexity_n if_o he_o take_v not_o order_n to_o disarm_v this_o enemy_n a_o enemy_n you_o know_v be_v a_o person_n that_o set_v himself_o wilful_o to_o hurt_v a_o man_n may_v hurt_v his_o neighbour_n either_o through_o indiscretion_n or_o unadvisedness_n against_o his_o will_n or_o he_o may_v lay_v wait_v to_o do_v he_o hurt_v intend_v misceif_n and_o seek_v to_o peforme_v somewhat_o that_o shall_v be_v injurious_a to_o he_o we_o call_v not_o he_o a_o enemy_n that_o we_o receive_v a_o little_a hurt_n from_o against_o his_o will_n contrary_a to_o his_o purpose_n and_o intention_n but_o he_o that_o study_v and_o beforehand_o desire_v to_o be_v a_o enemy_n now_o death_n as_o we_o may_v say_v study_v our_o hurt_n in_o all_o extremity_n beforehand_o there_o be_v but_o two_o sort_n of_o hurt_n that_o can_v come_v to_o a_o man_n comfortable_a one_o be_v to_o deprive_v he_o of_o that_o which_o be_v beneficial_a and_o comfortable_a to_o rob_v he_o of_o all_o that_o be_v contentful_a to_o he_o in_o this_o life_n as_o when_o a_o company_n of_o foe_n break_v into_o a_o nation_n they_o burn_v their_o good_n and_o spoil_v their_o house_n and_o rob_v and_o take_v away_o all_o that_o be_v comfortable_a to_o they_o so_o much_o as_o they_o can_v death_n be_v such_o a_o enemy_n it_o desire_v to_o bereave_v a_o man_n of_o that_o necessary_a contentment_n he_o have_v when_o it_o meet_v with_o a_o learned_a man_n it_o take_v away_o all_o his_o learning_n at_o one_o blow_n assoon_o as_o he_o be_v dead_a he_o cease_v to_o be_v a_o great_a scholar_n it_o come_v to_o a_o rich_a man_n and_o rob_v he_o of_o all_o his_o good_n at_o one_o blow_n too_o though_o he_o have_v million_o death_n cause_v all_o to_o be_v another_o man_n when_o it_o come_v to_o a_o king_n it_o pull_v he_o beside_o his_o throne_n take_v his_o crown_n off_o his_o head_n and_o cast_v both_o he_o and_o it_o into_o the_o dust_n he_o be_v king_n no_o long_a when_o he_o be_v dead_a and_o so_o in_o all_o the_o benefit_n of_o this_o life_n it_o take_v away_o the_o pleasure_n and_o contentment_n of_o a_o man_n it_o take_v away_o the_o husband_n from_o the_o wife_n and_o the_o wife_n from_o the_o husband_n it_o devide_v child_n from_o parent_n and_o parent_n from_o child_n all_o the_o benefit_n that_o this_o life_n afford_v death_n strip_v a_o man_n of_o they_o all_o and_o turn_v he_o naked_a out_o of_o the_o world_n just_a as_o he_o come_v he_o must_v go_v and_o carry_v nothing_o in_o his_o hand_n death_n will_v not_o admit_v he_o to_o take_v one_o farthing_n or_o any_o thing_n else_o with_o he_o so_o he_o be_v a_o enemy_n for_o he_o spoil_v we_o of_o whatsoever_o be_v desirable_a in_o this_o life_n but_o he_o be_v a_o enemy_n also_o in_o inflict_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o ill_a upon_o man_n man_n so_o death_n bring_v torment_n for_o the_o present_a it_o be_v a_o terrible_a thing_n to_o wrestle_v with_o it_o make_v a_o man_n bleed_v and_o sweat_v as_o it_o be_v no_o man_n can_v encounter_v with_o death_n but_o he_o feel_v anxiety_n and_o vexation_n of_o body_n and_o mind_n unless_o he_o have_v comfort_n from_o above_o to_o enable_v he_o to_o wrestle_v with_o it_o but_o in_o his_o own_o proper_a nature_n it_o be_v so_o furious_a a_o enemy_n that_o it_o do_v not_o cease_v till_o it_o have_v drag_v the_o soul_n into_o the_o presence_n of_o god_n and_o after_o from_o his_o tribunal_n to_o the_o torment_n of_o eternal_a fire_n in_o hell_n that_o succee_v death_n for_o natural_o of_o its_o own_o nature_n it_o tend_v to_o the_o destruction_n of_o man_n because_o it_o be_v a_o fruit_n of_o sin_n and_o therefore_o must_v needs_o he_o the_o perdition_n and_o overthrow_v of_o the_o soul_n for_o sin_n bring_v destruction_n in_o regard_n it_o make_v god_n angry_a with_o we_o and_o separate_v from_o he_o and_o by_o consequence_n from_o all_o manner_n of_o comfort_n and_o in_o regard_n it_o separate_v from_o he_o it_o bring_v all_o manner_n of_o ill_a his_o wrath_n his_o

everlasting_a unhappiness_n therefore_o it_o be_v a_o enemy_n so_o you_o see_v the_o second_o point_n open_v the_o three_o be_v enemy_n that_o death_n be_v the_o last_o enemy_n after_o which_o there_o shall_v be_v no_o more_o but_o i_o must_v tell_v you_o to_o who_o it_o be_v the_o last_o all_o not_o to_o all_o for_o there_o be_v a_o generation_n of_o man_n that_o shall_v feel_v death_n to_o be_v the_o last_o of_o enemy_n and_o in_o a_o manner_n the_o first_o but_o to_o the_o saint_n and_o those_o that_o be_v prepare_v for_o death_n saint_n and_o those_o that_o will_v use_v the_o remedy_n to_o these_o and_o these_o alone_a death_n be_v the_o last_o enemy_n after_o once_o they_o have_v grapple_v and_o fight_v and_o encounter_v with_o this_o enemy_n they_o be_v at_o peace_n and_o rest_n as_o he_o say_v happy_a be_v they_o that_o die_v in_o the_o lord_n for_o they_o rest_v from_o their_o labour_n there_o be_v no_o more_o toil_n and_o misery_n to_o a_o good_a man_n after_o death_n and_o why_o because_o death_n separate_v sin_n from_o his_o soul_n as_o well_o as_o the_o soul_n from_o the_o body_n and_o so_o take_v away_o the_o cause_n of_o unrest_n it_o must_v needs_o take_v away_o misery_n and_o unhappiness_n itself_o indeed_o proper_o death_n do_v it_o not_o but_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n by_o death_n for_o it_o please_v he_o when_o his_o servant_n leave_v this_o world_n than_o they_o be_v fit_a to_o enter_v into_o a_o place_n of_o happiness_n in_o another_o world_n which_o they_o can_v not_o be_v except_o they_o be_v free_v from_o sin_n death_n be_v the_o daughter_n of_o sin_n and_o with_o a_o happy_a patricide_fw-la as_o it_o be_v at_o once_o it_o destroy_v itself_o and_o sin_n and_o therefore_o it_o take_v away_o all_o misery_n because_o it_o take_v away_o all_o sin_n therefore_o it_o be_v the_o last_o enemy_n because_o it_o kill_v the_o worst_a of_o our_o enemte_n for_o when_o we_o be_v dead_a there_o shall_v be_v no_o more_o enmity_n between_o god_n and_o we_o and_o so_o no_o more_o enemy_n this_o be_v the_o three_o point_n the_o last_o be_v destroy_v that_o this_o enemy_n shall_v be_v destroy_v a_o thing_n be_v destroy_v abolish_v when_o its_o self_n cease_v to_o be_v and_o it_o take_v out_o of_o the_o way_n and_o when_o all_o the_o ill_a effect_n that_o it_o will_v produce_v and_o effect_n or_o have_v be_v remove_v so_o the_o lord_n
