be_v indeed_o very_o good_a token_n of_o a_o christian_a disposition_n among_o we_o and_o it_o be_v the_o continuance_n the_o growth_n and_o the_o propagation_n of_o this_o christian_a disposition_n that_o be_v the_o main_a end_n of_o this_o day_n be_v assembly_n and_o it_o must_v be_v confess_v that_o the_o assembly_n itself_o be_v a_o very_a forcible_a motive_n to_o it_o where_o the_o beauty_n the_o comfort_n and_o the_o usefulness_n of_o it_o appear_v by_o those_o number_n of_o poor_a creature_n who_o be_v relieve_v by_o it_o and_o this_o can_v but_o have_v its_o effect_n upon_o all_o that_o see_v it_o and_o must_v be_v feel_v without_o my_o direction_n but_o the_o great_a festival_n now_o depend_v determine_v my_o thought_n to_o argument_n of_o another_o nature_n and_o the_o

for_o that_o reason_n i_o have_v make_v choice_n of_o these_o word_n which_o be_v a_o part_n of_o the_o account_n that_o our_o saviour_n himself_o give_v of_o the_o great_a resurrection_n and_o of_o his_o come_n to_o judgement_n at_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n which_o he_o begin_v at_o the_o 31._o verse_n tell_v we_o that_o when_o the_o son_n of_o man_n shall_v come_v in_o his_o glory_n and_o all_o the_o holy_a angel_n with_o he_o then_o shall_v he_o sit_v upon_o the_o throne_n of_o his_o glory_n and_o before_o he_o shall_v be_v gather_v all_o nation_n and_o he_o shall_v separate_v they_o

no_o mean_n gather_v that_o good_a action_n of_o other_o kind_n will_v not_o be_v regard_v yet_o the_o least_o we_o can_v conclude_v be_v that_o these_o will_v have_v a_o peculiar_a degree_n of_o acceptance_n and_o that_o the_o charitable_a man_n shall_v have_v a_o distinguish_a share_n of_o the_o character_n the_o bless_a of_o the_o father_n now_o if_o charity_n at_o the_o resurrection_n
