inhabitant_n of_o the_o world_n this_o 11._o i_o say_v be_v that_o that_o affect_v the_o heart_n exceed_o that_o they_o must_v lose_v all_o their_o friend_n special_o when_o husband_n and_o wife_n must_v part_v parent_n and_o child_n must_v part_v and_o familiar_a and_o dear_a acquaintance_n must_v part_v this_o cause_v the_o fear_n of_o death_n because_o the_o heart_n be_v too_o much_o set_v upon_o the_o creature_n so_o likewise_o worldly_a business_n when_o a_o man_n love_v much_o employment_n much_o business_n he_o can_v abide_v to_o think_v of_o death_n why_o so_o because_o all_o work_n all_o enterprise_n cease_v in_o the_o grave_n as_o job_n say_v a_o man_n have_v neither_o the_o work_n of_o his_o hand_n nor_o the_o enterprise_n of_o his_o head_n in_o the_o grave_n all_o action_n cease_v both_o of_o the_o mind_n and_o body_n there_o so_o when_o a_o man_n heart_n be_v set_v upon_o pleasure_n below_o there_o be_v neither_o love_n nor_o hatred_n in_o the_o 9_o grave_n say_v solomou_v that_o be_v those_o thing_n that_o affect_v the_o heart_n that_o man_n love_v they_o cease_v there_o all_o his_o pleasure_n and_o comfort_n be_v go_v so_o if_o a_o man_n love_n honour_n and_o applause_n among_o man_n it_o cease_v in_o the_o grave_n all_o honour_n there_o be_v lay_v in_o the_o dust_n contempt_n be_v cast_v upon_o prince_n this_o be_v that_o that_o affect_v man_n exceed_o that_o they_o shall_v lose_v their_o honour_n and_o pleasure_n and_o acquaintance_n and_o business_n and_o all_o when_o they_o come_v to_o the_o grave_n and_o that_o because_o man_n heart_n be_v set_v too_o much_o upon_o these_o thing_n that_o be_v the_o second_o reason_n favour_n there_o be_v a_o three_o thing_n which_o be_v a_o sinful_a cause_n of_o this_o fear_n of_o death_n and_o that_o be_v the_o want_n of_o assurance_n there_o be_v two_o thing_n that_o a_o man_n not_o be_v assure_v of_o make_v he_o fear_v death_n and_o these_o may_v be_v in_o the_o child_n of_o god_n and_o as_o they_o be_v more_o in_o any_o one_o so_o the_o fear_n of_o death_n be_v more_o in_o they_o the_o first_o be_v when_o they_o be_v not_o assure_v of_o reconciliation_n with_o god_n that_o god_n be_v at_o peace_n with_o they_o please_v with_o they_o in_o christ._n the_o want_n of_o this_o assurance_n make_v death_n fearful_a for_o now_o they_o look_v upon_o death_n as_o a_o sergeant_n as_o a_o jailer_z either_o it_o be_v a_o sergeant_n to_o take_v they_o off_o their_o present_a comfort_n or_o as_o a_o jailor_n to_o hold_v they_o under_o those_o bond_n and_o fetter_n that_o they_o will_v fain_o escape_v now_o when_o a_o man_n look_v upon_o death_n either_o way_n it_o be_v terrible_a as_o a_o sergeant_n so_o the_o rich_a man_n in_o the_o gospel_n this_o night_n 16._o they_o shall_v fetch_v thy_o soul_n from_o thou_o they_o shall_v come_v to_o thou_o as_o a_o sergeant_n to_o a_o debtor_n to_o require_v a_o debt_n they_o shall_v require_v thy_o soul_n of_o thou_o now_o we_o all_o know_v that_o a_o man_n that_o be_v in_o debt_n and_o either_o have_v it_o not_o to_o pay_v or_o be_v unwilling_a to_o part_v with_o that_o he_o have_v such_o a_o man_n can_v endure_v the_o sight_n of_o a_o sergeant_n above_o all_o man_n because_o he_o come_v to_o fetch_v that_o from_o he_o that_o he_o will_v not_o part_v with_o or_o if_o he_o look_v upon_o death_n as_o a_o jailor_n so_o christ_n say_v agree_v with_o thy_o adversary_n quick_o lest_o he_o deliver_v thou_o to_o the_o judge_n and_o 6._o he_o give_v thou_o to_o the_o jailor_n and_o then_o he_o hold_v thou_o in_o prison_n from_o whence_o thou_o shall_v not_o go_v out_o till_o thou_o have_v pay_v the_o uttermost_a farthing_n now_o when_o a_o man_n look_v on_o death_n as_o a_o jailor_n that_o hold_v all_o in_o the_o grave_n till_o the_o great_a judge_n of_o heaven_n and_o earth_n call_v for_o they_o at_o the_o general_a day_n of_o assize_n that_o great_a day_n of_o appearance_n when_o all_o the_o world_n shall_v be_v gather_v together_o and_o every_o prison_n shall_v give_v up_o their_o prisoner_n the_o sea_n and_o the_o grave_n shall_v give_v up_o their_o dead_a i_o say_v when_o a_o man_n stand_v thus_o as_o unreconciled_a to_o god_n or_o at_o least_o as_o one_o that_o do_v not_o apprehend_v this_o reconciliation_n be_v not_o persuade_v of_o this_o that_o god_n be_v reconcile_v to_o he_o it_o be_v no_o marvel_n if_o death_n be_v terrible_a to_o he_o therefore_o in_o the_o six_o of_o the_o revelation_n the_o king_n and_o captain_n and_o the_o great_a and_o mighty_a man_n 6._o they_o cry_v to_o the_o mountain_n to_o fall_v upon_o they_o and_o to_o hide_v they_o from_o the_o presence_n of_o the_o lamb_n because_o the_o great_a day_n of_o wrath_n be_v come_v and_o who_o can_v stand_v so_o we_o see_v in_o 33._o isa._n 14._o there_o be_v cry_v out_o concern_v the_o come_n of_o god_n the_o sinner_n in_o zion_n the_o hypocrite_n be_v afraid_a 14._o what_o be_v their_o fear_n who_o shall_v dwell_v with_o everlasting_a burn_n and_o who_o shall_v remain_v with_o consume_a fire_n when_o they_o shall_v see_v nothing_o but_o terrourand_n wrath_n in_o god_n fire_n and_o consumption_n when_o they_o see_v nothing_o but_o such_o terrible_a thing_n than_o fear_n come_v upon_o they_o now_o mark_v hypocrite_n stand_v altogether_o unreconciled_a and_o therefore_o it_o be_v no_o marvel_n if_o they_o be_v afraid_a and_o the_o saint_n of_o god_n so_o far_o as_o they_o be_v defective_a in_o the_o assurance_n of_o god_n love_n so_o far_o they_o conceive_v themselves_o in_o the_o state_n of_o

body_n after_o death_n they_o be_v not_o sure_a of_o this_o that_o there_o be_v a_o better_a condition_n afterward_o this_o be_v that_o great_a question_n whether_o go_v we_o i_o go_v now_o out_o of_o the_o body_n and_o whither_o then_o i_o go_v out_o of_o the_o world_n and_o whither_o then_o i_o be_o go_v out_o of_o the_o company_n of_o man_n and_o whither_o then_o shall_v i_o go_v to_o angel_n

of_o they_o they_o be_v unresolved_a of_o this_o point_n of_o their_o own_o state_n to_o come_v whether_o they_o shall_v be_v in_o happiness_n or_o horror_n after_o death_n and_o therefore_o death_n be_v terrible_a you_o have_v the_o point_n open_v i_o will_v answer_v a_o objection_n or_o two_o and_o then_o come_v to_o the_o use_n it_o may_v be_v object_v it_o seem_v the_o servant_n of_o god_n be_v not_o 1._o keep_v under_o the_o fear_n of_o death_n all_o those_o that_o be_v in_o the_o state_n of_o grace_n have_v faith_n faith_n that_o spend_v these_o fear_n and_o therefore_o since_o they_o be_v in_o the_o state_n of_o believer_n how_o can_v they_o be_v hold_v under_o the_o fear_n of_o death_n to_o this_o i_o answer_v brief_o there_o be_v faith_n in_o all_o the_o child_n of_o answ._n god_n that_o be_v effectual_o call_v but_o we_o must_v know_v that_o faith_n be_v considerable_a two_o way_n first_o as_o it_o be_v in_o conflict_n and_o second_o as_o it_o be_v out_o of_o conflict_n now_o the_o faith_n of_o god_n servant_n in_o conflict_n so_o sometime_o it_o be_v in_o conflict_n with_o fear_n and_o sadness_n of_o spirit_n why_o 42._o be_v thou_o cast_v down_o oh_o my_o soul_n why_o be_v thou_o disquiet_v within_o i_o etc._n etc._n sometime_o it_o be_v in_o conflict_n with_o reason_n and_o sense_n thus_o the_o people_n of_o israel_n when_o they_o come_v into_o the_o wilderness_n they_o look_v for_o 11._o nothing_o but_o die_v and_o destruction_n of_o nature_n for_o sense_n present_v it_o to_o they_o therefore_o say_v moses_n which_o be_v the_o voice_n of_o faith_n stand_v still_o and_o see_v the_o salvation_n of_o god_n etc._n etc._n now_o in_o this_o conflict_n the_o success_n be_v doubtful_a sometime_o as_o it_o be_v between_o amalek_n and_o israel_n fight_v together_o amalek_n prevail_v &_o israel_n have_v the_o worst_a sometime_o israel_n prevail_v and_o amalek_n have_v the_o worst_a so_o sometime_o faith_n prevail_v against_o sense_n and_o those_o fear_n that_o arise_v from_o sense_n and_o sometime_o again_o carnal_a fear_n and_o sense_n prevail_v against_o faith_n now_o according_o be_v those_o effect_n in_o the_o heart_n of_o god_n child_n but_o second_o sometime_o faith_n be_v out_o of_o conflict_n it_o now_o triumph_v in_o assurance_n it_o be_v come_v now_o to_o full_a assurance_n of_o faith_n as_o it_o

that_o the_o child_n of_o god_n may_v be_v arm_v come_n and_o prepare_v for_o his_o come_n he_o have_v set_v down_o in_o his_o word_n certain_a sign_n which_o be_v effect_v and_o come_v to_o pass_v they_o may_v easy_o judge_v that_o then_o the_o day_n of_o redemption_n draw_v nigh_o now_o these_o sign_n be_v of_o three_o sort_n sort_n some_o be_v in_o respect_n of_o we_o a_o long_a time_n before_o he_o come_v to_o judgement_n a_o second_o sort_n be_v immediate_o before_o his_o come_n the_o three_o in_o his_o come_n the_o sign_n that_o prognosticate_v his_o come_n long_o before_o be_v

after_o christ_n s._n gregory_n seem_v to_o avouch_v that_o whosoever_o take_v the_o name_n of_o universal_a bishop_n and_o pastor_n of_o the_o church_n that_o be_v antichrist_n five_o year_n after_o
