zealous_a and_o so_o a_o good_a example_n to_o all_o the_o people_n under_o they_o this_o note_n of_o attention_n call_v all_o to_o take_v special_a notice_n of_o god_n messenger_n now_o unexpected_o send_v to_o they_o and_o also_o of_o the_o message_n that_o he_o carry_v and_o then_o in_o the_o last_o place_n we_o have_v this_o remarkable_a thus_o say_v the_o lord_n thrice_o repeat_v the_o design_n of_o which_o i_o take_v to_o be_v this_o to_o clear_v &_o confirm_v they_o in_o this_o call_n as_o if_o the_o prophet_n haggai_n have_v say_v it_o be_v not_o my_o message_n a_o sick-brain_n fancy_n or_o notion_n of_o i_o but_o it_o be_v the_o command_n of_o jehovah_n the_o lord_n of_o host_n i_o may_v observe_v from_o these_o word_n several_a thing_n as_o 1._o that_o the_o people_n of_o god_n may_v be_v call_v by_o a_o wonderful_a cast_n of_o providenee_n and_o a_o extraordinary_a hand_n of_o god_n out_o of_o great_a trouble_n and_o affliction_n to_o carry_v on_o a_o work_n of_o reformation_n and_o yet_o when_o they_o be_v most_o clear_o call_v to_o it_o it_o may_v meet_v with_o great_a rub_n and_o and_o impediment_n you_o see_v they_o be_v call_v to_o this_o and_o yet_o it_o meet_v with_o great_a opposition_n and_o they_o also_o notwithstanding_o of_o god_n call_n be_v careless_a and_o superficial_a in_o prosecute_a this_o so_o great_a so_o necessary_a and_o so_o profitable_a a_o work_n 2lie_n i_o may_v observe_v this_o that_o the_o lord_n take_v special_a notice_n of_o his_o people_n how_o they_o manage_v precious_a opportunity_n for_o his_o glory_n his_o church_n good_a and_o the_o advancement_n of_o religion_n which_o be_v put_v in_o their_o hand_n and_o therefore_o he_o send_v this_o prophet_n haggai_n to_o reprove_v their_o by_o past_a disobedience_n and_o negligence_n and_o to_o awaken_v they_o to_o their_o duty_n for_o the_o future_a but_o the_o main_a doctrine_n which_o i_o take_v to_o comprehend_v the_o very_a scope_n of_o the_o word_n be_v this_o that_o it_o be_v the_o duty_n of_o all_o rank_n of_o people_n in_o a_o land_n to_o be_v strong_a and_o join_v cordiallie_o and_o unanimouslie_o together_o to_o carry_v on_o a_o

assistance_n i_o purpose_v to_o stand_v on_o in_o prosecute_n whereof_o i_o shall_v follow_v this_o method_n 1._o to_o show_v you_o what_o be_v mean_v here_o by_o be_v strong_a and_o that_o i_o shall_v do_v first_o positive_o show_v what_o it_o true_o import_v 2._o negativelie_o what_o it_o prohibit_v in_o the_o next_o place_n i_o shall_v give_v you_o the_o reason_n of_o the_o doctrine_n why_o all_o rank_n of_o person_n in_o a_o land_n shall_v be_v strong_a and_o join_v cordial_o together_o to_o carry_v on_o a_o begin_v work_n of_o reformation_n when_o the_o lord_z eminent_o call_v they_o to_o it_o and_o last_o i_o shall_v give_v you_o the_o use_n of_o all_o this_o be_v the_o work_n that_o lie_v before_o i_o first_o then_o by_o be_v strong_a be_v positive_o and_o plain_o mean_v in_o scripture_n phrase_n to_o take_v courage_n and_o resolution_n that_o person_n of_o all_o rank_n who_o god_n call_v to_o his_o service_n shall_v put_v on_o courage_n and_o resolution_n especial_o such_o as_o god_n set_v up_o in_o public_a office_n you_o may_v see_v this_o clear_a in_o the_o case_n of_o joshua_n in_o his_o first_o chapter_n verse_n 9_o when_o the_o lord_n call_v forth_o joshua_n to_o install_v he_o in_o a_o public_a office_n which_o he_o be_v to_o manage_v for_o bring_v the_o people_n of_o god_n through_o jordan_n out_o of_o the_o wilderness_n and_o to_o bring_v they_o to_o the_o possession_n of_o canaan_n and_o to_o go_v before_o they_o as_o their_o captain_n general_n in_o the_o war_n by_o which_o they_o be_v to_o execute_v god_n threaten_a judgement_n in_o destroy_v these_o nation_n that_o be_v accurse_v and_o be_v to_o meet_v with_o many_o a_o bloody_a rancounter_n in_o the_o do_v thereof_o how_o do_v the_o lord_n in_o order_n to_o all_o this_o encourage_v joshua_n in_o this_o 9_o verse_n have_v not_o i_o command_v thou_o be_v strong_a and_o of_o a_o good_a courage_n be_v not_o afraid_a neither_o be_v thou_o dismay_v for_o the_o lord_z thy_o
