some_o wicked_a man_n in_o the_o world_n who_o by_o their_o life_n and_o conversation_n will_v at_o least_o seem_v to_o have_v no_o hope_n nor_o fear_n of_o any_o thing_n but_o in_o this_o life_n only_o yet_o suppose_v a_o man_n never_o so_o great_a a_o hater_n of_o god_n and_o religion_n it_o be_v scarce_o possible_a any_o man_n shall_v be_v suppose_v so_o great_a a_o enemy_n to_o himself_o as_o to_o desire_v to_o die_v wrethed_o or_o to_o be_v miserable_a after_o death_n however_o i_o say_v great_a the_o atheist_n may_v be_v that_o be_v or_o that_o have_v be_v there_o can_v never_o sure_a in_o the_o world_n be_v so_o wicked_a a_o fool_n as_o this_o who_o will_v therefore_o hate_v happiness_n because_o he_o do_v not_o love_v holiness_n and_o the_o truth_n be_v among_o the_o most_o profligate_v and_o the_o most_o wicked_a man_n there_o be_v no_o such_o thing_n as_o a_o absolute_a atheist_n when_o man_n as_o it_o 9.27_o it_o heb._n 9.27_o be_v appoint_v come_v once_o to_o die_v for_o as_o there_o be_v no_o man_n in_o the_o world_n that_o know_v certain_o what_o his_o soul_n be_v or_o how_o it_o subsist_v before_o it_o be_v unite_v to_o the_o body_n so_o let_v the_o profane_a 1.20_o profane_a 1_o cor._n 1.20_o disputer_n of_o this_o world_n talk_v as_o they_o please_v yet_o no_o man_n natural_o can_v have_v any_o more_o certainty_n what_o condition_n his_o soul_n will_v be_v in_o after_o it_o be_v separate_v from_o the_o body_n but_o if_o the_o atheist_n will_v say_v here_o that_o after_o death_n his_o soul_n will_v be_v nothing_o but_o that_o it_o will_v cease_v to_o be_v by_o the_o atheist_n leave_v we_o must_v say_v that_o this_o be_v more_o than_o the_o most_o know_a atheist_n in_o the_o world_n can_v pretend_v to_o know_v certain_o and_o therefore_o since_o where_o there_o be_v no_o certainty_n there_o will_v certain_o be_v doubt_n and_o scruple_n especial_o in_o this_o great_a business_n of_o die_v and_o something_o that_o may_v be_v expect_v after_o death_n it_o must_v necessary_o follow_v that_o out_o of_o the_o mere_a principle_n of_o self-love_n to_o a_o man_n be_v own_o well-being_n every_o where_o where_o it_o be_v possible_a for_o he_o to_o be_v the_o very_a infidel_n therefore_o though_o he_o do_v not_o express_v it_o yet_o in_o effect_n must_v be_v suppose_v at_o least_o implicit_o to_o desire_v to_o die_v the_o death_n of_o the_o righteous_a that_o be_v to_o die_v so_o as_o that_o he_o may_v be_v well_o after_o death_n and_o not_o miserable_a for_o the_o truth_n be_v the_o good_a christian_a that_o live_v a_o righteous_a and_o a_o godly_a life_n take_v the_o safe_a and_o secure_a way_n let_v what_o will_v happen_v after_o death_n because_o if_o there_o be_v a_o heaven_n as_o all_o good_a christian_n be_v do_v believe_v there_o be_v than_o the_o good_a christian_a he_o be_v happy_a and_o if_o there_o be_v no_o such_o thing_n why_o then_o there_o be_v no_o harm_n do_v but_o then_o as_o for_o the_o atheist_n and_o ungodly_a it_o be_v not_o so_o with_o they_o for_o if_o there_o be_v a_o heaven_n and_o a_o hell_n as_o there_o may_v be_v for_o all_o the_o fool_n have_v say_v in_o his_o heart_n to_o the_o contrary_a why_o then_o the_o ungodly_a wretch_n be_v for_o ever_o miserable_a and_o undo_v because_o they_o be_v damn_v for_o ever_o there_o be_v i_o know_v among_o the_o lewd_a and_o profane_a especial_o in_o these_o latter_a age_n a_o most_o strange_a and_o horrid_a way_n of_o die_v that_o in_o their_o mirth_n and_o jollity_n some_o man_n love_v mighty_o to_o talk_v of_o namely_o of_o die_v hard_a that_o be_v in_o plain_a english_a of_o die_v without_o any_o fear_n or_o apprehension_n at_o all_o of_o either_o heaven_n or_o hell_n but_o whether_o such_o vain_a man_n do_v real_o desire_v to_o die_v such_o horrid_a kind_n of_o death_n as_o they_o love_v thus_o profane_o to_o talk_v of_o be_v not_o so_o certain_a however_o thus_o much_o be_v most_o evident_a that_o every_o man_n that_o live_v in_o his_o sense_n and_o do_v not_o die_v out_o of_o they_o desire_v to_o die_v much_o otherwise_o for_o every_o man_n in_o his_o wit_n will_v desire_v to_o die_v not_o so_o much_o without_o the_o sensible_a belief_n as_o without_o the_o fear_n and_o danger_n of_o hell_n and_o eternal_a punishment_n from_o which_o horrid_a danger_n no_o man_n can_v be_v sure_a that_o he_o die_v free_a as_o long_o as_o it_o be_v possible_a there_o may_v be_v such_o a_o horrid_a state_n and_o condition_n after_o death_n unless_o indeed_o man_n do_v take_v care_n to_o die_v the_o death_n of_o the_o righteous_a and_o then_o and_o only_o then_o they_o can_v be_v say_v to_o be_v safe_a and_o secure_a whether_o there_o be_v any_o such_o place_n of_o punishment_n or_o no._n and_o indeed_o this_o bare_a possibility_n of_o there_o be_v such_o a_o thing_n as_o eternal_a vengeance_n and_o a_o hell_n for_o the_o wicked_a be_v enough_o to_o make_v every_o man_n that_o do_v not_o die_v rave_v mad_a or_o quite_o stupefy_v to_o desire_v to_o die_v the_o death_n of_o the_o righteous_a to_o the_o end_n that_o they_o may_v be_v safe_a and_o secure_a even_o as_o the_o righteous_a be_v from_o the_o possibility_n of_o any_o such_o danger_n for_o indeed_o right_a reason_n as_o well_o as_o religion_n teach_v man_n to_o provide_v against_o all_o possible_a as_o well_o as_o against_o all_o apparent_a evil_n both_o in_o relalation_n to_o this_o life_n and_o that_o which_o be_v to_o come_v and_o therefore_o it_o be_v allow_v on_o all_o hand_n at_o least_o possible_a that_o there_o be_v both_o a_o 〈…〉_o a_o ps●_n 〈…〉_o reward_n for_o the_o righteous_a and_o a_o consume_a 〈…〉_o consume_a he●_n 〈…〉_o fire_n for_o the_o ungodly_a all_o man_n will_v upon_o this_o account_n be_v apt_a enough_o when_o they_o come_v to_o die_v to_o desire_v the_o better_a and_o the_o safe_a part_n because_o though_o all_o wicked_a man_n do_v hate_v righteousness_n yet_o they_o can_v sure_o be_v in_o love_n with_o the_o wage_n of_o sin_n for_o let_v vain_a man_n love_v their_o sinful_a pleasure_n never_o so_o well_o yet_o i_o think_v no_o man_n be_v ever_o so_o far_o in_o love_n with_o his_o sin_n as_o to_o be_v willing_a to_o be_v damn_v for_o they_o and_o this_o may_v be_v sufficient_a to_o prove_v the_o first_o particular_a namely_o that_o all_o man_n do_v at_o least_o desire_n to_o die_v well_o though_o they_o live_v never_o so_o wicked_o which_o bring_v we_o to_o the_o next_o particular_a to_o be_v make_v good_a wherein_o we_o be_v to_o show_v that_o though_o all_o man_n do_v desire_v it_o yet_o it_o be_v improbable_a if_o not_o impossible_a for_o man_n to_o die_v well_o unless_o they_o live_v well_o and_o indeed_o for_o man_n to_o expect_v to_o die_v the_o death_n without_o live_v the_o life_n of_o the_o righteous_a be_v to_o expect_v that_o god_n shall_v be_v that_o which_o he_o never_o be_v and_o he_o have_v say_v he_o never_o will_v be_v namely_o a_o 〈…〉_o a_o a●_n 〈…〉_o respecter_n of_o person_n in_o give_v that_o for_o nothing_o to_o the_o wicked_a which_o be_v the_o peculiar_a lot_n of_o the_o righteous_a viz._n the_o 〈…〉_o the_o p●_n 〈…〉_o hope_n of_o life_n in_o their_o death_n nay_o it_o be_v foolish_o to_o expect_v too_o that_o god_n the_o righteous_a judge_n shall_v give_v the_o crown_n of_o life_n to_o those_o wicked_a man_n who_o never_o take_v care_n to_o run_v the_o race_n that_o be_v set_v before_o they_o in_o short_a it_o be_v a_o expectation_n that_o imply_v the_o great_a unreasonableness_n and_o absurdity_n for_o it_o be_v to_o expect_v that_o god_n shall_v give_v the_o eternal_a mansion_n and_o the_o child_n bread_n to_o dog_n and_o that_o the_o unclean_a sinner_n as_o well_o as_o the_o pure_a saint_n shall_v have_v equal_a liberty_n to_o enter_v into_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n there_o be_v i_o know_v a_o very_a usual_a but_o a_o very_a unhappy_a say_n wherewith_o too_o many_o man_n persuade_v themselves_o to_o put_v off_o the_o necessity_n of_o a_o good_a life_n and_o yet_o for_o all_o that_o hope_v to_o die_v well_o and_o that_o be_v by_o a_o late_a repentance_n which_o they_o say_v be_v never_o too_o late_o and_o by_o this_o they_o mean_v a_o deathbed_n repentance_n but_o then_o alas_o let_v we_o not_o deceive_v ourselves_o for_o though_o indeed_o a_o true_a repentance_n be_v never_o too_o late_o yet_o a_o deathbed_n repentance_n true_o and_o proper_o speak_v be_v no_o repentance_n at_o all_o for_o true_a repentance_n be_v true_a sorrow_n for_o sin_n and_o as_o true_a resolution_n to_o sin_n no_o more_o but_o then_o what_o do_v a_o die_a man_n resolution_n signify_v to_o sin_v no_o more_o when_o he_o be_v indeed_o not_o able_a to_o sin_v any_o long_o beside_o
