i_o can_v so_o proper_o call_v they_o a_o text_n of_o my_o choice_n as_o of_o my_o acceptance_n for_o i_o know_v not_o any_o other_o that_o can_v stand_v in_o competition_n with_o it_o it_o will_v be_v no_o digression_n if_o the_o time_n will_v permit_v i_o to_o show_v you_o in_o the_o first_o place_n how_o well_o the_o text_n may_v be_v accommodate_v to_o the_o day_n in_o the_o one_o we_o have_v a_o battle_n on_o earth_n that_o bring_v st._n paul_n to_o heaven_n and_o on_o the_o other_o a_o war_n in_o heaven_n which_o be_v reveal_v to_o st._n john_n on_o earth_n michael_n and_o his_o angel_n 12.7_o fight_v with_o the_o dragon_n and_o his_o angel_n in_o the_o epistle_n for_o the_o day_n but_o because_o it_o be_v the_o occasion_n rather_o than_o the_o day_n that_o have_v cause_v our_o present_a assembly_n at_o this_o place_n i_o shall_v confine_v my_o discourse_n only_o to_o that_o and_o then_o the_o first_o thing_n i_o shall_v observe_v from_o my_o text_n be_v that_o it_o be_v a_o part_n of_o a_o epistle_n send_v by_o the_o apostle_n st._n paul_n to_o timothy_n a_o apostolical_a person_n and_o a_o man_n of_o a_o apostolical_a office_n who_o he_o have_v ordain_v the_o first_o bishop_n of_o ephesus_n 6._o write_v at_o such_o a_o time_n when_o his_o departure_n be_v at_o hand_n upon_o occasion_n of_o those_o corruption_n which_o he_o foresee_v will_v afterward_o be_v bring_v into_o the_o church_n by_o those_o that_o will_v turn_v away_o their_o ear_n from_o the_o truth_n 4._o and_o will_v be_v embrace_v by_o the_o people_n of_o itch_a ear_n that_o will_v not_o endure_v sound_a doctrine_n 3._o but_o will_v heap_v to_o themselves_o teacher_n after_o their_o own_o lust_n and_o the_o end_n why_o the_o apostle_n write_v it_o be_v to_o forewarn_v he_o of_o this_o mischief_n and_o to_o instruct_v he_o what_o he_o shall_v do_v upon_o this_o occasion_n and_o to_o strengthen_v and_o encourage_v he_o by_o propose_v his_o own_o example_n against_o whatsoever_o he_o shall_v suffer_v for_o the_o performance_n of_o his_o duty_n in_o this_o particular_a in_o preach_v the_o word_n and_o be_v instant_n in_o season_n 2._o out_o of_o season_n in_o reprove_v rebuke_v exhort_v with_o all_o long_a suffering_n and_o doctrine_n and_o let_v we_o but_o look_v back_o one_o eight_o day_n and_o we_o shall_v clear_o see_v how_o well_o these_o very_a word_n will_v have_v become_v this_o reverend_a person_n who_o funeral_n have_v this_o day_n occasion_v our_o meeting_n to_o have_v speak_v to_o every_o one_o of_o we_o here_o present_a whether_o lay_v or_o clergy_n whether_o such_o as_o be_v in_o danger_n to_o be_v infect_v with_o those_o corruption_n that_o be_v now_o get_v into_o the_o church_n which_o be_v the_o very_a same_o for_o nature_n and_o in_o a_o very_a high_a degree_n with_o those_o that_o be_v here_o foretell_v by_o st._n paul_n or_o such_o as_o by_o their_o office_n and_o call_n in_o the_o church_n be_v bind_v to_o oppose_v they_o see_v he_o be_v a_o bishop_n that_o be_v a_o person_n of_o a_o apostolical_a office_n and_o such_o a_o one_o who_o care_n as_o well_o as_o duty_n it_o be_v to_o oppose_v and_o beat_v down_o whatever_o be_v contrary_a to_o sound_v doctrine_n and_o to_o instruct_v other_o what_o to_o do_v upon_o the_o like_a occasion_n and_o that_o not_o only_o by_o his_o do_n but_o also_o by_o his_o suffering_n not_o only_o by_o his_o pen_n and_o preach_v but_o also_o by_o his_o episcopal_a and_o christian_a conversation_n and_o that_o good_a example_n which_o he_o have_v leave_v we_o for_o our_o imitation_n of_o he_o both_o in_o his_o life_n and_o death_n let_v we_o then_o suppose_v to_o ourselves_o what_o we_o may_v reasonable_o presume_v he_o will_v have_v say_v to_o we_o so_o few_o day_n ago_o or_o let_v we_o but_o imagine_v we_o hear_v his_o hearse_n preach_v now_o to_o we_o what_o he_o will_v then_o have_v teach_v himself_o and_o what_o doctrine_n can_v we_o more_o likely_a expect_v from_o he_o than_o what_o my_o text_n will_v afford_v we_o if_o we_o consider_v it_o with_o those_o circumstance_n i_o have_v already_o mention_v believe_v it_o the_o hearse_n of_o a_o person_n of_o his_o

but_o listen_v to_o that_o as_o supply_v what_o be_v so_o proper_a and_o likely_a for_o himself_o to_o have_v speak_v and_o you_o may_v have_v a_o funeral_n sermon_n though_o i_o shall_v hold_v my_o

that_o i_o may_v give_v you_o some_o assistance_n for_o your_o meditation_n and_o some_o direction_n for_o your_o practice_n let_v i_o desire_v your_o patience_n and_o attention_n while_o i_o

3._o as_o they_o may_v be_v apply_v to_o ourselves_o the_o first_o consideration_n will_v represent_v they_o to_o we_o as_o a_o sermon_n the_o second_o as_o a_o funeral_n sermon_n proper_a for_o this_o occasion_n the_o three_o and_o last_o as_o a_o funeral_n sermon_n useful_a to_o ourselves_o 1._o these_o word_n as_o they_o be_v write_v by_o st._n paul_n contain_v in_o they_o these_o two_o

will_v be_v actual_o pay_v in_o that_o day_n that_o be_v the_o day_n of_o judgement_n here_o be_v too_o large_a a_o task_n for_o so_o short_a a_o time_n as_o be_v ordinary_a for_o this_o exercise_n and_o therefore_o i_o must_v confine_v my_o discourse_n only_o to_o the_o former_a general_a part_n of_o my_o text_n and_o be_v brief_a in_o that_o too_o more_o will_v not_o be_v necessary_a for_o let_v we_o but_o take_v out_o this_o lesson_n well_o and_o we_o need_v not_o be_v much_o solicitous_a for_o the_o other_o let_v we_o but_o careful_o and_o conscionable_o perform_v the_o work_n and_o we_o may_v safe_o trust_v god_n for_o the_o wage_n and_o in_o this_o point_n that_o i_o may_v speak_v clear_o as_o well_o as_o brief_o i_o shall_v consider_v the_o word_n first_o joint_o together_o and_o then_o several_o apart_o in_o relation_n to_o the_o three_o several_a action_n already_o mention_v 1._o as_o they_o be_v take_v joint_o together_o we_o may_v observe_v that_o as_o very_o often_o elsewhere_o so_o here_o in_o particular_a the_o apostle_n allude_v to_o the_o manner_n of_o perform_v the_o olympic_a game_n among_o the_o grecian_n for_o my_o whole_a text_n be_v a_o continue_a allegory_n take_v from_o those_o sport_n and_o consequent_o all_o the_o principal_a word_n which_o be_v in_o it_o if_o we_o consider_v they_o in_o the_o literal_a sense_n must_v be_v understand_v as_o term_n altogether_o agonistical_a and_o therefore_o as_o in_o those_o olympic_a game_n there_o be_v several_a champion_n that_o contend_v in_o fight_v or_o cuff_v or_o wrestle_v or_o drive_v of_o chariot_n in_o such_o a_o place_n of_o ground_n or_o upon_o such_o a_o stage_n for_o some_o honorarie_a or_o reward_n as_o a_o crown_n of_o olive_n or_o laurel_n or_o the_o like_a before_o such_o a_o
