even_o as_o christ_n jesus_n it_o be_v not_o possible_a to_o make_v a_o high_a expression_n of_o enlarge_a love_n than_o this_o be_v whereby_o the_o apostle_n set_v forth_o the_o affection_n which_o

the_o faithful_a minister_n of_o the_o gospel_n be_v among_o other_o which_o it_o will_v be_v too_o large_a exact_o to_o treat_v of_o these_o which_o follow_v 1._o first_o believer_n look_v upon_o the_o faithful_a minister_n of_o the_o gospel_n as_o a_o special_a gift_n of_o christ_n unto_o his_o church_n what_o thought_n soever_o other_o have_v of_o faithful_a minister_n yet_o true_a believer_n know_v that_o they_o be_v in_o much_o love_n give_v by_o the_o lord_n christ_n for_o the_o edify_n of_o his_o body_n 12_o till_o all_o the_o member_n thereof_o come_v in_o the_o unity_n of_o the_o faith_n and_o knowledge_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n unto_o a_o perfect_a man_n to_o the_o measure_n of_o the_o stature_n of_o the_o fullness_n of_o christ_n and_o therefore_o believer_n can_v but_o love_v such_o a_o gift_n of_o love_n proceed_v from_o their_o belove_a lord_n and_o saviour_n 2._o second_o true_a believer_n look_v upon_o the_o faithful_a minister_n of_o the_o gospel_n as_o ambassador_n for_o christ_n in_o who_o he_o negotiate_v with_o they_o in_o much_o mercy_n for_o the_o accomplish_n their_o reconciliation_n to_o god_n and_o eternal_a happiness_n 2_o corinth_n

three_o true_a believer_n be_v experimental_o assure_v that_o the_o faithful_a minister_n of_o the_o gospel_n be_v ministerial_a father_n to_o some_o and_o nurse_n to_o all_o god_n people_n who_o hear_v the_o gospel_n from_o their_o mouth_n to_o such_o as_o be_v bring_v out_o of_o a_o state_n of_o ignorance_n and_o wickedness_n unto_o the_o faith_n and_o obedience_n of_o jesus_n christ_n by_o the_o gospel_n which_o they_o preach_v they_o be_v ministerial_a father_n as_o we_o learn_v from_o what_o the_o apostle_n write_v to_o the_o corinthian_n 15_o though_o you_o have_v ten_o thousand_o instructor_n in_o christ_n yet_o have_v you_o not_o many_o father_n for_o in_o christ_n jesus_n i_o have_v beget_v you_o through_o the_o gospel_n the_o lord_n of_o his_o own_o will_v original_o beget_v his_o child_n by_o the_o word_n of_o truth_n 18_o dispense_v in_o the_o mouth_n of_o the_o preacher_n of_o the_o gospel_n for_o how_o shall_v they_o believe_v in_o he_o of_o who_o they_o have_v not_o hear_v how_o shall_v they_o hear_v without_o a_o preacher_n and_o how_o shall_v they_o preach_v except_o they_o be_v send_v as_o it_o be_v write_v how_o beautiful_a upon_o the_o mountain_n be_v the_o foot_n of_o they_o that_o preach_v the_o gospel_n of_o peace_n and_o bring_v glad_a tiding_n of_o good_a thing_n the_o faithful_a minister_n of_o the_o gospel_n of_o peace_n give_v by_o our_o lord_n christ_n for_o the_o work_n of_o the_o ministry_n be_v therefore_o ministerial_a father_n too_o and_o so_o as_o spiritual_a parent_n acknowledge_v and_o belove_v by_o those_o who_o through_o their_o ministry_n be_v bring_v to_o the_o faith_n of_o the_o gospel_n to_o other_o who_o have_v former_o entertain_v the_o truth_n of_o the_o gospel_n in_o a_o regenerate_a power_n the_o faithful_a minister_n of_o the_o gospel_n be_v as_o nurse_n cherish_v and_o strengthen_v they_o by_o the_o word_n of_o god_n which_o they_o preach_v for_o the_o same_o word_n of_o the_o gospel_n which_o beget_v nourish_v and_o build_v up_o the_o people_n of_o god_n unto_o eternal_a life_n and_o in_o this_o second_o cherish_v work_n the_o minister_n of_o the_o gospel_n be_v and_o be_v acknowledge_v by_o believer_n for_o spiritual_a nurse_n according_a to_o the_o apostle_n expression_n to_o the_o thessaloniun_n 7_o we_o be_v gentle_a among_o you_o even_o as_o a_o nurse_n cherish_v she_o own_o child_n now_o nurse_n we_o know_v sometime_o get_v away_o the_o love_n of_o child_n from_o their_o true_a parent_n and_o in_o the_o case_n before_o we_o it_o be_v often_o see_v that_o though_o true_a believer_n can_v forget_v their_o ministerial_a father_n yet_o they_o be_v apt_a to_o fall_v much_o in_o love_n with_o their_o spiritual_a nurse_n who_o at_o present_a feed_n and_o refresh_v they_o with_o the_o word_n of_o truth_n the_o sum_n be_v that_o as_o father_n or_o nurse_n or_o both_o all_o those_o that_o true_o believe_v the_o gospel_n be_v ready_a to_o love_v the_o faithful_a minister_n of_o the_o gospel_n whilst_o they_o enjoy_v they_o now_o this_o truth_n be_v acknowledge_v the_o last_o point_n i_o be_o to_o speak_v to_o in_o the_o doctrine_n become_v evident_a of_o itself_o namely_o that_o a_o faithful_a minister_n be_v final_o part_v from_o with_o much_o sorrow_n by_o those_o who_o true_o believe_v the_o gospel_n for_o love_n be_v a_o strong_a bond_n knit_v the_o soul_n so_o fast_o to_o that_o which_o be_v belove_v that_o it_o can_v lose_v it_o or_o be_v loose_v and_o part_v from_o it_o without_o much_o sorrow_n we_o read_v that_o jacob_n love_v joseph_n more_o than_o all_o his_o brethren_n and_o when_o he_o think_v that_o joseph_n be_v final_o take_v from_o he_o 35_o he_o rend_v his_o clothes_n and_o put_v sackcloth_n upon_o his_o loin_n and_o mourn_v for_o his_o son_n many_o day_n and_o all_o his_o son_n and_o daughter_n rise_v up_o to_o comfort_v he_o and_o he_o refuse_v to_o be_v comfort_v and_o he_o say_v for_o i_o will_v go_v down_o into_o the_o grave_n unto_o my_o son_n mourning_n and_o even_o thus_o it_o be_v between_o true_a believer_n and_o faithful_a minister_n of_o the_o gospel_n the_o true_a and_o great_a love_n which_o such_o believer_n bear_v unto_o such_o minister_n make_v their_o presence_n sweet_a and_o therefore_o necessary_o their_o final_a part_n very_o grievous_a unto_o they_o to_o this_o i_o will_v brief_o add_v two_o further_a ground_n of_o much_o sorrow_n in_o those_o who_o true_o believe_v the_o gospel_n for_o the_o final_a removal_n of_o faithful_a minister_n by_o death_n from_o they_o 1._o first_o when_o faithful_a minister_n be_v take_v away_o by_o death_n believer_n be_v at_o a_o utter_a loss_n as_o to_o the_o enjoyment_n of_o any_o comfort_n or_o benefit_n from_o the_o person_n or_o personal_a ministry_n of_o they_o that_o be_v so_o remove_v from_o they_o if_o they_o can_v have_v the_o least_o hope_n of_o re-enjoy_v a_o faithful_a minister_n after_o death_n there_o will_v be_v yet_o some_o string_n of_o comfort_n to_o hold_v by_o at_o their_o depart_n but_o believer_n know_v that_o this_o be_v a_o final_a part_n from_o a_o faithful_a minister_n they_o must_v never_o seek_v counsel_n or_o comfort_n or_o instruction_n more_o from_o his_o mouth_n death_n avoidable_o put_v the_o servant_n of_o christ_n to_o silence_n and_o take_v they_o off_o from_o be_v in_o their_o person_n useful_a in_o the_o work_n of_o the_o ministry_n unto_o the_o live_n for_o ever_o the_o apostle_n paul_n write_v to_o the_o philippian_n that_o his_o abide_n in_o the_o flesh_n will_v be_v needful_a for_o they_o for_o their_o furtherance_n and_o joy_n of_o faith_n philip._n 1._o v._n 24_o 25._o and_o thereby_o intimate_v that_o when_o he_o be_v by_o death_n remove_v from_o they_o they_o neither_o can_v expect_v nor_o shall_v receive_v any_o far_a benefit_n from_o his_o person_n or_o personal_a ministry_n herein_o our_o bless_a saviour_n happy_o differ_v from_o and_o have_v a_o transcendent_a pre-eminence_n above_o his_o servant_n in_o the_o ministry_n that_o whereas_o their_o final_a part_n from_o their_o people_n in_o the_o flesh_n make_v they_o personal_o unuseful_a to_o

unto_o they_o in_o spiritual_a benefit_n as_o be_v testify_v by_o our_o saviour_n himself_o say_v to_o his_o disciple_n 7_o nevertheless_o i_o tell_v you_o the_o truth_n it_o be_v expedient_a for_o you_o that_o i_o go_v away_o for_o if_o i_o go_v not_o away_o the_o comforter_n will_v not_o come_v unto_o you_o but_o if_o i_o depart_v i_o will_v send_v he_o unto_o you_o our_o saviour_n go_v away_o as_o a_o mediator_n and_o advocate_n between_o god_n and_o man_n and_o not_o as_o a_o bare_a minister_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o

first_o they_o true_o believe_v the_o gospel_n who_o glorify_v the_o word_n of_o the_o lord_n as_o it_o be_v testify_v of_o the_o believe_a gentile_n to_o who_o paul_n preach_v the_o gospel_n at_o
