they_o have_v to_o give_v unto_o the_o judge_n of_o all_o the_o earth_n when_o they_o depart_v out_o of_o this_o world_n minister_n must_v be_v accountable_a for_o those_o soul_n which_o be_v lose_v by_o their_o unfaithfulness_n and_o negligence_n as_o appear_v from_o ezek._n 33.6_o and_o therefore_o the_o apostle_n paul_n charge_v timothy_n to_o be_v diligent_a in_o his_o work_n as_o he_o will_v

give_v a_o account_n of_o their_o ministry_n then_o how_o unreasonable_a be_v it_o for_o the_o people_n to_o be_v offend_v with_o they_o for_o their_o faithfulness_n and_o eagerness_n in_o the_o

of_o the_o divine_a law_n but_o consider_v they_o do_v it_o for_o their_o own_o sake_n as_o well_o as_o for_o you_o that_o if_o they_o can_v deliver_v your_o soul_n yet_o they_o may_v deliver_v their_o own_o 5._o must_v the_o minister_n of_o the_o gospel_n dye_v that_o they_o may_v rest_v from_o their_o labour_n be_v ease_v of_o their_o trouble_n and_o receive_v their_o reward_n then_o it_o be_v a_o great_a piece_n of_o self-denial_n in_o a_o minister_n that_o be_v satisfy_v in_o his_o fitness_n for_o death_n to_o be_v willing_a to_o live_v we_o have_v a_o instance_n of_o this_o in_o the_o apostle_n paul_n who_o though_o upon_o his_o own_o account_n he_o desire_v to_o depart_v and_o to_o be_v with_o christ_n yet_o for_o the_o sake_n of_o the_o church_n he_o be_v willing_a to_o abide_v long_o in_o the_o flesh_n 1_o phil._n 23.24_o 2._o by_o way_n of_o exhortation_n have_v a_o care_n that_o you_o do_v not_o hasten_v the_o death_n of_o your_o minister_n it_o be_v true_a their_o day_n be_v determine_v by_o that_o god_n in_o who_o hand_n all_o our_o time_n be_v but_o you_o may_v be_v instrumental_a to_o shorten_v their_o life_n and_o that_o not_o only_o by_o put_v they_o to_o death_n as_o wicked_a persecutor_n have_v ●ften_o do_v but_o by_o other_o mean_n 1._o by_o over_o value_v of_o they_o if_o you_o give_v that_o honour_n to_o they_o which_o belong_v only_o to_o the_o lord_n of_o the_o prophet_n you_o will_v provoke_v he_o to_o take_v they_o away_o from_o you_o if_o you_o fall_v down_o and_o worship_n these_o bright_a and_o glitter_a star_n no_o wonder_n if_o the_o father_n of_o light_n remove_v they_o from_o your_o sight_n if_o you_o advance_v they_o to_o god_n throne_n he_o will_v quick_o lay_v they_o in_o the_o dust_n 2._o by_o undervalue_v they_o by_o slight_v and_o contemn_v their_o person_n their_o gift_n or_o their_o message_n if_o you_o do_v not_o prize_v your_o mercy_n when_o you_o enjoy_v they_o god_n will_v make_v you_o to_o know_v the_o worth_n of_o they_o in_o the_o want_n of_o they_o if_o you_o despise_v god_n ambassador_n it_o be_v time_n for_o he_o to_o recall_v they_o moreover_o hereby_o you_o will_v wound_v their_o soul_n and_o break_v their_o heart_n and_o why_o will_v you_o bring_v their_o head_n with_o sorrow_n to_o the_o grave_n who_o have_v so_o great_a a_o regard_n to_o your_o welfare_n 2._o look_v upon_o your_o live_a minister_n as_o die_a man_n and_o that_o to_o these_o two_o end_n and_o purpose_n 1._o that_o you_o may_v moderate_v your_o affection_n towards_o they_o the_o consideration_n of_o the_o vanity_n and_o frailty_n of_o all_o create_a object_n shall_v wean_v our_o heart_n and_o affection_n from_o they_o and_o this_o consideration_n shall_v have_v the_o same_o influence_n upon_o we_o with_o respect_n to_o gospel_n minister_n why_o shall_v we_o set_v our_o eye_n our_o heart_n upon_o those_o who_o be_v not_o for_o they_o will_v soon_o take_v to_o themselves_o wing_n and_o fly_v away_o from_o we_o into_o a_o invisible_a world_n second_o that_o you_o may_v make_v the_o utmost_a improvement_n of_o they_o while_o they_o continue_v with_o you_o endeavour_v to_o get_v as_o much_o
