bless_v god_n account_n and_o acknowledge_v god_n to_o be_v glorious_a in_o holiness_n justice_n goodness_n and_o truth_n when_o he_o strip_v he_o of_o his_o outward_a comfort_n he_o justify_v god_n in_o all_o his_o deal_n with_o he_o the_o language_n of_o both_o his_o heart_n and_o his_o lip_n be_v the_o same_o with_o david_n thou_o have_v deal_v well_o with_o thy_o servant_n according_a to_o thy_o word_n psal_n 119.65_o five_o prop._n this_o include_v our_o offering_n up_o praise_n and_o thanksgiving_n to_o god_n under_o if_o not_o for_o our_o affliction_n he_o that_o thus_o bless_v god_n will_v praise_n his_o name_n when_o he_o take_v as_o well_o as_o when_o he_o give_v he_o will_v return_v thanks_o for_o those_o mercy_n which_o be_v still_o continue_v with_o he_o though_o he_o mourn_v for_o the_o removal_n of_o other_o from_o he_o yea_o if_o he_o observe_v mercy_n either_o in_o the_o circumstance_n of_o the_o affliction_n or_o in_o the_o issue_n and_o event_n of_o it_o he_o will_v remember_v to_o offer_v up_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o praise_n to_o god_n even_o when_o he_o hang_v his_o harp_n upon_o the_o willow_n i_o proceed_v second_o to_o prove_v and_o demonstrate_v the_o point_n and_o this_o i_o shall_v do_v more_o general_o and_o more_o particular_o first_o more_o general_o god_n be_v to_o be_v bless_v by_o we_o at_o all_o time_n and_o therefore_o when_o he_o deprive_v we_o of_o our_o outward_a comfort_n as_o well_o as_o when_o he_o give_v they_o to_o we_o this_o be_v evident_a from_o the_o nature_n of_o god_n our_o relation_n to_o he_o and_o the_o revelation_n and_o discovery_n which_o he_o have_v make_v of_o his_o will_n to_o we_o be_v god_n the_o most_o excellent_a be_v sure_o we_o who_o stand_v relate_v to_o he_o as_o creature_n to_o a_o creator_n and_o as_o subject_n to_o a_o sovereign_n be_v oblige_v at_o all_o time_n to_o glorify_v he_o not_o by_o make_v he_o glorious_a but_o by_o account_v and_o acknowledge_v he_o to_o be_v glorious_a ourselves_o and_o proclaim_v he_o to_o be_v so_o unto_o other_o be_v not_o praise_n and_o thanksgiving_n due_a from_o we_o to_o he_o at_o all_o time_n unless_o he_o can_v cease_v to_o be_v god_n or_o we_o cease_v to_o be_v creature_n we_o can_v under_o no_o circumstance_n be_v free_v from_o our_o obligation_n to_o glorify_v the_o perfection_n of_o his_o nature_n those_o terrible_a dispensation_n of_o divine_a providence_n which_o make_v a_o great_a alteration_n in_o our_o outward_a state_n and_o condition_n neither_o make_v nor_o argue_v any_o change_n in_o god_n he_o be_v the_o same_o when_o he_o take_v and_o when_o he_o give_v when_o he_o empty_v we_o and_o when_o he_o fill_v we_o to_o suppose_v he_o a_o good_a god_n at_o one_o time_n and_o a_o evil_a god_n at_o another_o be_v a_o flat_a contradiction_n it_o be_v to_o suppose_v he_o not_o to_o be_v god_n and_o have_v he_o not_o frequent_o prohibit_v those_o thing_n which_o be_v exclude_v by_o and_o command_v those_o thing_n which_o be_v employ_v in_o blessing_n a_o take_v god_n they_o must_v be_v great_o unacquainted_a with_o the_o holy_a scripture_n who_o be_v ignorant_a hereof_o second_o i_o shall_v more_o particular_o demonstrate_v that_o this_o conclusion_n natural_o and_o necessary_o flow_v from_o the_o precede_a proposition_n first_o we_o ought_v to_o bless_v a_o take_n as_o well_o as_o a_o give_a god_n because_o the_o same_o god_n who_o take_v they_o away_o from_o we_o first_o give_v they_o to_o we_o the_o force_n of_o this_o argument_n will_v be_v apparent_a from_o the_o two_o follow_a consideration_n first_o that_o god_n who_o give_v they_o to_o we_o have_v a_o unquestionable_a right_n to_o take_v they_o away_o from_o we_o as_o i_o tell_v you_o before_o he_o retain_v his_o propriety_n in_o they_o when_o he_o have_v bestow_v they_o upon_o we_o and_o may_v not_o god_n do_v what_o he_o please_v with_o his_o own_o we_o may_v suppose_v job_n speak_v to_o god_n after_o this_o manner_n lord_n thou_o have_v deprive_v i_o of_o my_o wealth_n and_o my_o child_n but_o i_o will_v subscribe_v to_o the_o equity_n of_o thy_o proceed_n with_o i_o for_o thou_o do_v but_o exercise_v thy_o sovereign_a right_n thou_o give_v they_o to_o i_o and_o yet_o still_o they_o remain_v thou_o therefore_o thou_o have_v righteous_o take_v they_o away_o from_o i_o second_o when_o god_n take_v our_o outward_a comfort_n from_o we_o we_o have_v reason_n to_o bless_v he_o for_o give_v they_o to_o we_o we_o be_v very_o prone_a to_o be_v guilty_a of_o this_o piece_n of_o ingratitude_n towards_o both_o god_n and_o man_n our_o creator_n and_o our_o fellow_n creature_n if_o they_o show_v kindness_n to_o we_o for_o a_o time_n and_o refuse_v the_o continuance_n thereof_o instead_o of_o thank_v they_o to_o quarrel_v with_o they_o let_v none_o of_o we_o say_v when_o any_o of_o our_o enjoyment_n be_v snatch_v away_o from_o we_o better_o we_o have_v never_o enjoy_v they_o than_o to_o be_v so_o soon_o deprive_v of_o they_o have_v thou_o lose_v a_o child_n a_o comfortable_a child_n a_o child_n in_o its_o ripe_a age_n thou_o have_v reason_n to_o bless_v god_n that_o he_o give_v thou_o a_o child_n that_o he_o make_v it_o a_o comfort_n which_o may_v have_v be_v a_o cross_n to_o thou_o and_o have_v continue_v it_o so_o long_o with_o thou_o have_v thou_o lose_v a_o delightful_a wife_n one_o that_o be_v a_o help_n meet_v for_o thou_o thou_o have_v reason_n to_o bless_v god_n that_o he_o give_v thou_o such_o a_o wife_n who_o may_v have_v give_v thou_o one_o that_o will_v have_v be_v a_o continual_a torment_n and_o vexation_n to_o thou_o and_o that_o he_o have_v spare_v she_o so_o long_o with_o you_o second_o we_o ought_v to_o bless_v a_o take_a god_n because_o it_o be_v the_o lord_n jehovah_n who_o take_v our_o outward_a comfort_n from_o we_o the_o lord_n have_v take_v away_o the_o lord_n who_o can_v do_v no_o wrong_n to_o any_o of_o his_o creature_n the_o lord_n who_o be_v righteous_a in_o all_o his_o way_n and_o holy_a in_o all_o his_o work_n the_o lord_n against_o who_o we_o have_v sin_v and_o by_o our_o sin_n forfeit_v all_o our_o mercy_n the_o lord_n who_o have_v he_o deal_v with_o we_o according_a to_o our_o iniquity_n or_o reward_v we_o according_a to_o our_o invention_n may_v have_v cast_v we_o into_o hell_n long_o ago_o the_o lord_n who_o be_v our_o god_n the_o lord_n who_o have_v do_v great_a thing_n for_o our_o soul_n who_o be_v a_o alsufficient_a unchangeable_a and_o everlasting_a good_a who_o can_v make_v up_o the_o loss_n of_o creature_n comfort_n in_o himself_o the_o lord_n who_o know_v what_o condition_n be_v good_a for_o we_o better_a than_o we_o do_v ourselves_o who_o manage_n all_o thing_n according_a to_o the_o dictate_v of_o his_o infinite_a wisdom_n the_o lord_n who_o way_n be_v all_o mercy_n and_o truth_n to_o his_o people_n and_o aim_v at_o their_o good_a as_o well_o as_o his_o own_o glory_n in_o all_o his_o dispensation_n towards_o they_o who_o will_v support_v they_o under_o affliction_n and_o sanctify_v affliction_n unto_o they_o i_o proceed_v three_o to_o make_v some_o improvement_n and_o application_n of_o this_o point_n which_o shall_v be_v only_o a_o exhortation_n to_o all_o in_o general_n and_o you_o the_o relation_n of_o our_o decease_a friend_n in_o particular_a to_o this_o necessary_a duty_n of_o bless_v a_o take_v god_n to_o enforce_v this_o i_o may_v present_v you_o with_o many_o motive_n but_o i_o shall_v only_o offer_v you_o two_o which_o shall_v be_v take_v from_o the_o context_n of_o that_o scripture_n which_o be_v the_o foundation_n of_o this_o discourse_n first_o hereby_o you_o will_v disappoint_v satan_n what_o be_v the_o devil_n design_n against_o job_n in_o endeavour_v the_o removal_n of_o his_o outward_a comfort_n but_o to_o make_v he_o curse_n god_n as_o be_v evident_a from_o ver._n 11._o of_o this_o chap._n and_o questionless_a he_o be_v in_o the_o same_o plot_n against_o we_o when_o in_o the_o like_a condition_n he_o will_v fain_o create_v some_o prejudices_fw-la against_o god_n in_o our_o mind_n or_o draw_v some_o unbecoming_a reflection_n upon_o he_o from_o our_o lip_n now_o as_o his_o design_n against_o job_n be_v defeat_v when_o instead_o of_o curse_v god_n he_o bless_v he_o so_o will_v his_o plot_n against_o we_o miscarry_v if_o we_o do_v the_o like_a and_o shall_v not_o we_o endeavour_v to_o frustrate_v his_o design_n who_o be_v a_o implacable_a enemy_n both_o to_o our_o god_n and_o to_o we_o second_o hereby_o you_o will_v please_v god_n that_o this_o carriage_n of_o job_n be_v well-pleasing_a to_o god_n be_v apparent_a from_o his_o express_a approbation_n thereof_o in_o the_o word_n follow_v my_o

my_o friend_n who_o loss_n have_v occasion_v this_o discourse_n have_v cause_n to_o be_v thankful_a as_o well_o as_o to_o mourn_v under_o that_o stroke_n of_o god_n hand_n which_o have_v be_v late_o lay_v upon_o you_o god_n have_v even_o in_o judgement_n remember_v mercy_n with_o you_o in_o that_o he_o do_v not_o take_v away_o your_o relation_n by_o a_o violent_a but_o by_o a_o natural_a death_n
