it_o to_o study_v save_v wisdom_n this_o be_v clear_a psalm_n 90.12_o where_o david_n put_v up_o this_o request_n so_o teach_v we_o to_o number_v our_o day_n that_o we_o may_v apply_v our_o heart_n unto_o wisdom_n as_o if_o he_o have_v say_v i_o will_v never_o think_v myself_o wise_a till_o i_o know_v that_o bless_a piece_n of_o arithmetic_n how_o to_o number_v my_o day_n i_o will_v desire_v every_o one_o of_o you_o all_o to_o think_v with_o yourselves_o every_o morning_n when_o you_o arise_v now_o we_o be_v a_o hour_n near_o unto_o eternity_n than_o we_o be_v before_o and_o at_o the_o end_n of_o every_o hour_n now_o we_o be_v a_o day_n near_o unto_o eternity_n than_o we_o be_v before_o i_o say_v think_v often_o yea_o always_o thus_o we_o be_v never_o so_o near_a death_n as_o we_o be_v now_o for_o oh_o be_v we_o not_o all_o near_o to_o eternity_n to_o day_n than_o we_o be_v you_o sterday_o the_o seven_o advantage_n attend_v the_o faith_n of_o approach_a death_n be_v this_o that_o it_o will_v make_v a_o christian_a very_o careful_a in_o prepare_v for_o death_n it_o be_v impossible_a for_o one_o to_o believe_v real_o that_o death_n be_v approach_v and_o not_o prepare_v for_o it_o say_v what_o you_o will_v if_o you_o be_v not_o careful_a in_o prepare_v for_o death_n you_o have_v not_o the_o solid_a faith_n of_o this_o truth_n that_o you_o shall_v die_v believe_v i_o it_o be_v not_o every_o one_o that_o think_v he_o believe_v this_o truth_n that_o believe_v it_o indeed_o and_o o_o how_o dreadful_a be_v it_o for_o a_o unprepared_a man_n to_o meet_v with_o death_n he_o desire_v not_o to_o die_v yea_o he_o will_v give_v a_o world_n for_o his_o life_n but_o die_v he_o must_v whether_o he_o will_v or_o not_o for_o death_n will_v not_o be_v request_v to_o spare_v a_o little_a when_o he_o come_v and_o therefore_o i_o say_v unto_o you_o set_v your_o house_n in_o order_n for_o you_o shall_v sure_o die_v old_a man_n and_o woman_n set_v your_o house_n in_o order_n for_o sure_o you_o must_v die_v young_a man_n and_o woman_n set_v your_o house_n in_o order_n for_o to_o morrow_n you_o may_v die_v and_o be_v cut_v off_o in_o the_o flower_n of_o your_o age_n think_v not_o that_o there_o be_v any_o who_o can_v sell_v time_n for_o i_o say_v you_o shall_v never_o get_v time_n sell_v unto_o you_o alace_o i_o feat_n the_o most_o part_n of_o person_n that_o die_v now_o death_n find_v they_o at_o unaware_o for_o indeed_o the_o person_n that_o die_v among_o we_o when_o we_o come_v to_o visit_v they_o we_o may_v give_v you_o a_o full_a account_n of_o they_o for_o we_o think_v they_o be_v all_o comprehend_v under_o these_o four_o sort_n first_o when_o we_o go_v to_o visit_v some_o person_n on_o their_o death_n bed_n they_o be_v like_a unto_o nabal_n their_o heart_n be_v die_v and_o sink_v like_a unto_o a_o stone_n within_o they_o they_o be_v no_o more_o affect_v with_o death_n then_o if_o it_o be_v a_o fancy_n alace_o for_o the_o great_a stupidity_n that_o have_v overtake_v many_o therefore_o i_o entreat_v you_o delay_v not_o your_o repentance_n till_o death_n lest_o the_o lord_n take_v away_o your_o wit_n so_o that_o you_o can_v then_o repent_v for_o your_o senslesness_n and_o stupid_a frame_n of_o spirit_n a_o second_o sort_n we_o find_v in_o a_o presumptuous_a frame_n say_v they_o have_v have_v a_o good_a hope_n all_o their_o day_n and_o they_o will_v not_o quit_v it_o now_o they_o will_v go_v down_o to_o the_o grave_n with_o their_o hope_n in_o their_o right_a hand_n or_o rather_o they_o will_v go_v down_o to_o the_o grave_n with_o a_o lie_n in_o their_o right_a hand_n they_o live_v in_o a_o persumptuous_a frame_n and_o they_o die_v in_o the_o same_o delusion_n for_o when_o we_o tell_v they_o that_o by_o all_o probability_n they_o be_v go_v down_o to_o hell_n they_o answer_v god_n forbid_v i_o be_v all_o my_o time_n a_o very_a honest_a man_n or_o woman_n but_o i_o love_v not_o that_o confession_n for_o there_o be_v many_o such_o honest_a man_n and_o woman_n in_o hell_n this_o day_n the_o three_o sort_n we_o find_v have_v some_o conviction_n that_o they_o have_v be_v play_v the_o fool_n all_o their_o day_n but_o we_o can_v get_v they_o no_o further_o i_o shall_v only_o say_v to_o such_o to_o go_v down_o to_o the_o grave_a with_o conviction_n in_o their_o breast_n not_o make_v use_n of_o christ_n be_v to_o go_v down_o to_o hell_n with_o a_o candle_n in_o their_o hand_n to_o let_v they_o see_v the_o way_n and_o true_o the_o great_a part_n that_o die_v die_v in_o this_o manner_n four_o there_o be_v some_o who_o we_o find_v in_o a_o self-righteous_a frame_n trust_v upon_o the_o covenant_n of_o work_n and_o their_o own_o merit_n and_o trust_v by_o these_o to_o go_v to_o heaven_n yet_o neglect_v the_o offer_n of_o christ_n righteousness_n but_o alace_o we_o find_v not_o one_o of_o a_o thousand_o in_o this_o frame_n i_o desire_v to_o be_v dissolve_v and_o to_o be_v with_o christ_n that_o be_v best_a of_o all_o and_o scarce_o do_v we_o find_v any_o in_o such_o a_o frame_n o_o wretched_a man_n that_o i_o be_o who_o shall_v deliver_v i_o from_o the_o body_n of_o this_o death_n therefore_o i_o say_v unto_o you_o who_o be_v all_o here_o o_o will_v you_o mind_n death_n before_o it_o take_v hold_v on_o you_o oh_o mind_n your_o work_n now_o for_o you_o will_v find_v that_o death_n shall_v be_v work_n enough_o for_o itself_o though_o you_o leave_v no_o work_n till_o then_o the_o eight_o advantage_n that_o attend_v the_o christian_a believe_v this_o truth_n that_o once_o he_o must_v die_v be_v this_o death_n will_v not_o be_v so_o terrible_a to_o he_o as_o it_o be_v to_o many_o when_o it_o come_v what_o think_v you_o make_v death_n a_o king_n of_o terror_n what_o make_v many_o to_o shake_v like_o the_o leaf_n of_o a_o tree_n when_o they_o be_v summon_v to_o appear_v before_o god_n tribunal_n it_o be_v even_o because_o of_o this_o they_o have_v not_o be_v think_v on_o death_n before_o it_o come_v so_o as_o to_o prepare_v for_o it_o and_o i_o fear_v many_o in_o this_o place_n may_v be_v fear_v for_o death_n and_o that_o when_o it_o come_v to_o they_o they_o will_v say_v unto_o death_n as_o achab_n say_v to_o elijah_n have_v thou_o find_v i_o o_o my_o enemy_n sure_o death_n will_v take_v you_o and_o bring_v you_o to_o the_o judgement-seat_n of_o christ_n therefore_o study_v by_o all_o mean_n to_o think_v ofren_n upon_o it_o and_o make_v ready_a for_o it_o for_o believe_v i_o death_n be_v a_o very_a big_a word_n for_o it_o will_v once_o make_v you_o stand_v with_o horror_n in_o your_o soul_n if_o your_o peace_n be_v not_o make_v up_o with_o god_n i_o know_v not_o a_o more_o dreadful_a dispensation_n than_o death_n and_o a_o guilty_a conscience_n meet_v together_o the_o second_o thing_n that_o i_o shall_v speak_v unto_o from_o the_o first_o observation_n viz._n that_o it_o be_v a_o most_o certain_a and_o infallible_a truth_n that_o all_o person_n shall_v once_o see_v death_n shall_v be_v to_o give_v some_o good_a consideration_n for_o press_v you_o to_o prepare_v for_o death_n the_o first_o consideration_n be_v this_o that_o to_o die_v well_o and_o in_o the_o lord_n be_v a_o most_o difficult_a work_n therefore_o i_o entreat_v you_o prepare_v for_o death_n it_o be_v a_o difficult_a work_n to_o communicate_v aright_o it_o be_v a_o difficult_a work_n to_o pray_v aright_o and_o it_o be_v a_o difficult_a work_n to_o confer_v aright_o but_o i_o must_v tell_v you_o it_o be_v a_o more_o difficult_a work_n to_o die_v aright_o than_o any_o of_o these_o it_o be_v true_a it_o be_v more_o difficult_a to_o communicate_v aright_o then_o to_o pray_v aright_o yet_o it_o be_v much_o more_o difficult_a to_o die_v aright_o then_o to_o communicate_v aright_o for_o it_o be_v a_o most_o difficult_a work_n to_o die_v in_o the_o lord_n death_n will_v put_v the_o most_o accurate_a christian_a that_o be_v here_o to_o a_o wonderful_a search_n and_o therefore_o i_o will_v tell_v you_o nine_o thing_n that_o death_n will_v try_v in_o thou_o 1._o death_n will_v try_v both_o the_o reality_n and_o strength_n of_o thy_o faith_n it_o may_v be_v easy_a for_o thou_o to_o keep_v up_o faith_n under_o many_o difficulty_n but_o death_n shall_v put_v thy_o faith_n to_o the_o great_a stress_n that_o ever_o it_o do_v meet_v with_o yea_o know_v this_o that_o the_o faith_n of_o the_o strong_a believer_n may_v get_v and_o ordinary_o do_v get_v a_o set_v at_o death_n the_o like_a whereof_o it_o never_o get_v before_o therefore_o prepare_v for_o death_n 2._o death_n will_v try_v thy_o love_n to_o god_n some_o person_n pretend_v much_o love_n to_o
