LONDON Printed for Robert Kettlewell at the Hand and Scepter over against St. Dunstan's Church in Fleet-street 1686. TO THE Right Honourable WILLIAM Lord DIGBY BARON DIGBY OF Geashil in Ireland My Lord WHen I Preach'd this Sermon to my own Parish I had no Design to make it more publick But since your Lordship desires it should come abroad I readily submit to it For besides the just and great Regard I have to your Lordship's Request I would not be wanting in any thing that may serve though in a very small measure to do Honour to that most dear and exemplary Saint your deceased Brother I am conscious that the Draught I have made of him is very imperfect but such as it is it sets out many things most worthy to be imitated which may render it no lost Labour to the World To do Right indeed to the Subject I should speak in Proportion to what he deserved but to do service among those that survive the saying any thing almost of him is sufficient since it must needs be worth Mens while to hear any Particulars remarqued upon where almost all are excellent And so long as his Character may benefit others were he on Earth again he whose studied care it was to do good and shun the praise of it would readily pardon all the well-meant Errors and Defects of the Compiler which make it wanting to his own Honour And I am well assured your Lordship who succeeds him in his Virtues as well as in his Estate and Honour will do so too In particular my Lord I hope your Lordship will reap Benefit by these Papers For to your own Stock of an excellent good Nature and Religious Principles you have made the discreet Choice of his admirable Example to improve both and have already transcribed it in some choice and commendable Methods God grant your Lordship a lasting Continuance and daily increase of those Noble Endowments which make you Brothers in Virtue as well as in Blood that you may not only equal but exceed him in all those Excellencies and Pious Qualities which set him out for a rare Pattern and injoy a much longer Life wherein to display and do good to the World with them This my Lord is and always must be the most hearty Prayer of Your Lordship 's in most Affectionate Duty and Service John Kettlewell Coles-Hill Mar. 30. 1686. A SERMON Preached at Coles-Hill in Warwickshire January 24. 1685. On occasion of the DEATH OF THE Right Honourable SIMON Lord DIGBY On Heb. 6. 12. That ye be not slothful but followers of them who through Faith and Patience inherit the Promises ONE of the best Encouragements to act especially in difficult and perilous Undertakings is other Mens Examples And the Argument which is like to have most force and prevail most in Examples is their good Events when we see others under the same Disadvantages and Hardships we suffer to injoy the same Divine Aids whereon we rest and meet at last with the same success which we hope for And this Argument the Apostle uses in this place to perswade the Hebrew Converts to Constancy and Perseverance in the Faith We desire says he that as hitherto ye have shown love towards God's Name in a free Profession of Religion and ministred to the Saints who suffer for him thereby openly owning and avowing both him and them so ye would still continue to shew the same diligence to the full assurance of your Hope unto the end That ye be not slothful and faint-hearted like those cowardly Apostates mentioned v. 6. whose case is desperate but followers of them who through Faith and Patience inherit the Promises That which he particularly notes in these Examples is their Faith and Patience Their Faith that is their firm trust in God and belief of his Promises relying on his Word under all Tryals And their Patience that is their perseverance in this Trust and expectation under all Delays and constant adherence to him under all Difficulties These two the Apostle singles out from among many others because they particularly serve his Purpofe which is to press Perseverance in the Faith neither totally abjuring and falling off from Christ as some had done v. 6 nor forsaking the Publick Assemblies in perilous Times as others did which would shortly end in it which Perseverance is best secured by these two Virtues But good Examples give instances of many other Virtues wherein they are to be followed and are equally serviceable to all other Duties as well as these and in that latitude I shall consider them in the ensuing Discourse This Text excites the Hebrews to diligence in good Works from the Examples of deceased Saints who are now reaping the Reward of all their former Pains and inherit the Promises And in treating on it I shall 1. Show what use we are to make of Pious Mens Examples 2. Propose one to your imitation 1. I shall show what use we are to make of Pious Mens Examples A good Example is both a very instructive and ingaging thing And the Examples of deceased Saints have more Power and Efficacy than the Examples of the living For nothing gives us so just an Estimate of any Excellencies as the loss of them And when once good Men are gone there is no more Emulation to make those that survive detract from what was imitable and praise-worthy in them And after their Deaths we look upon them not only as Good but as Blessed and so are apt to be influenced the more by their Virtues because of our Veneration for their Persons and Memories And these the Apostle here proposes directing us to look up to those who are now no longer Candidates and Expectants but inherit the Promises Now the use we are to make of their Examples is both for a Lesson to direct and teach and also for a Motive to hearten and excite us to an imitation of their Virtues 1. We must use the Examples of Good Men for a Lesson to direct and guide us in the way of Goodness Examples are more plainly instructive than Precepts For Precepts prescribe Virtue in general Terms which afterwards needs farther Reasoning to supply Circumstances and accommodate them to particular Occasions But Examples shew it in particular instances attired in all its various Forms and Circumstances and fitted for Practice so that when they are in sight we have nothing left to do but to follow what we see before us And this use our Saviour directs us to make of his Example to look upon his Life as a Sermon and make his Practice our instruction
