the_o three_o be_v 3_o that_o it_o be_v the_o nine_o hour_n of_o the_o day_n a_o little_a before_o his_o death_n this_o must_v teach_v we_o that_o great_a extremity_n for_o the_o most_o part_n of_o

in_o the_o revelation_n we_o see_v because_o the_o devil_n have_v but_o a_o short_a time_n to_o continue_v therefore_o he_o rage_v and_o take_v on_o the_o more_o and_o bend_v all_o his_o force_n to_o

2_o at_o the_o time_n our_o death_n when_o because_o the_o last_o enemy_n that_o shall_v be_v destroy_v be_v death_n the_o devil_n thrust_v himself_o in_o with_o death_n that_o he_o may_v make_v

may_v be_v sure_a that_o if_o god_n find_v sin_n upon_o we_o he_o will_v forsake_v we_o here_o we_o be_v to_o observe_v four_o thing_n 1._o what_o it_o be_v to_o be_v forsake_v 2._o how_o far_o he_o

grateful_a presence_n of_o god_n in_o goodness_n and_o grace_n now_o there_o be_v a_o twofold_a presence_n 1_o there_o be_v a_o general_a presence_n to_o sustain_v and_o uphold_v we_o in_o our_o be_v and_o action_n which_o be_v common_a to_o all_o thus_o the_o devil_n have_v the_o presence_n of_o god_n which_o be_v that_o presence_n paul_n speak_v of_o in_o the_o act_n in_o he_o we_o live_v move_v and_o have_v our_o be_v let_v a_o carpenter_n make_v a_o house_n and_o when_o he_o have_v do_v let_v he_o go_v whether_o he_o will_v the_o house_n will_v stand_v but_o it_o be_v not_o so_o with_o we_o for_o god_n when_o he_o have_v make_v we_o must_v uphold_v we_o or_o else_o we_o fall_v to_o the_o grave_n and_o come_v to_o nothing_o as_o a_o staff_n in_o a_o man_n hand_n as_o long_o as_o he_o hold_v it_o so_o long_o the_o staff_n stand_v but_o if_o he_o withdraw_v his_o hand_n it_o fall_v so_o it_o be_v with_o the_o world_n and_o all_o thing_n in_o it_o now_o beside_o this_o general_a presence_n there_o be_v a_o particular_a presence_n in_o grace_n and_o goodness_n such_o as_o be_v speak_v of_o psalm_n 145._o 18._o the_o lord_n be_v nigh_o unto_o all_o they_o that_o call_v upon_o

we_o in_o the_o life_n of_o grace_n therefore_o to_o want_v the_o presence_n of_o god_n 2._o be_v to_o want_v the_o comfortable_a feel_n of_o god_n in_o grace_n and_o goodness_n this_o be_v mean_v by_o be_v forsake_v of_o god_n to_o find_v god_n angry_a countenance_n against_o we_o for_o sin_n second_o forsake_v how_o far_o forth_o christ_n and_o so_o a_o christian_a may_v be_v say_v to_o be_v forsake_v i_o answer_v two_o way_n 1._o the_o one_o be_v in_o the_o life_n of_o nature_n 2._o the_o other_o be_v in_o the_o life_n of_o grace_n first_o 1_o in_o the_o life_n of_o nature_n when_o god_n take_v away_o our_o sight_n our_o strength_n our_o health_n our_o breath_n or_o life_n and_o thus_o the_o dear_a servant_n of_o god_n may_v be_v forsake_v thus_o christ_n be_v forsake_v and_o the_o thief_n on_o the_o cross_n he_o be_v not_o free_v of_o his_o bodily_a pain_n yea_o and_o he_o lose_v his_o life_n too_o but_o god_n do_v not_o forsake_v he_o in_o the_o life_n of_o grace_n he_o give_v he_o his_o spirit_n and_o grace_n still_o and_o thus_o the_o poor_a martyr_n be_v forsake_v in_o the_o life_n of_o nature_n heb._n 11._o it_o be_v say_v some_o be_v rack_v and_o some_o be_v saw_v

may_v be_v forsake_v yea_o this_o kind_n of_o forsake_v be_v needful_a as_o in_o some_o disease_n when_o a_o physician_n come_v and_o see_v a_o man_n have_v abundance_n of_o blood_n simile_n whereby_o

in_o this_o place_n of_o those_o god_n have_v a_o purpose_n to_o save_v he_o add_v to_o the_o church_n from_o day_n to_o day_n so_o ephe._n 5._o 23._o saint_n paul_n say_v that_o christ_n be_v the_o

because_o the_o light_n of_o god_n shine_v in_o the_o church_n only_o there_o be_v no_o salvation_n without_o it_o second_o 2_o because_o we_o can_v have_v no_o communion_n with_o christ_n unless_o
