once_o enter_v into_o the_o gloomy_a shade_n of_o death_n they_o can_v be_v no_o far_o beneficial_a to_o you_o they_o shall_v no_o more_o entreat_v you_o caution_n or_o warn_v you_o counsel_n and_o

of_o the_o preacher_n oh_o sinner_n speedy_o accept_v of_o those_o offer_n of_o salvation_n which_o they_o make_v to_o you_o in_o their_o master_n name_n for_o you_o know_v not_o how_o soon_o their_o

say_v the_o apostle_n do_v you_o not_o know_v that_o the_o saint_n shall_v judge_v the_o world_n 1_o cor._n 6.2_o and_o minister_n shall_v with_o other_o saint_n judge_v the_o world_n not_o only_o

leave_v when_o they_o shall_v say_v lord_n these_o be_v the_o man_n upon_o who_o we_o spend_v our_o time_n and_o our_o strength_n who_o we_o teach_v and_o admonish_v in_o season_n and_o out_o of_o season_n for_o the_o salvation_n of_o who_o soul_n we_o destroy_v our_o own_o body_n we_o preach_v to_o they_o with_o the_o great_a seriousness_n and_o persuade_v they_o with_o the_o great_a importunity_n as_o if_o our_o own_o salvation_n have_v depend_v upon_o the_o work_n out_o of_o they_o we_o be_v as_o boanerges_n son_n of_o thunder_n proclaim_v to_o they_o the_o terror_n of_o a_o fiery_a law_n and_o like_o barnabas_n son_n of_o consolation_n declare_v to_o they_o the_o blessing_n of_o the_o everlasting_a gospel_n we_o set_v before_o they_o life_n and_o death_n blessing_n and_o

they_o deserve_v the_o heavy_a stroke_n of_o vindictive_a justice_n three_o when_o god_n have_v take_v away_o any_o of_o his_o faithful_a minister_n be_v not_o insensible_a of_o the_o stroke_n though_o we_o must_v not_o murmur_v at_o it_o yet_o we_o ought_v to_o mourn_v for_o it_o shall_v not_o we_o lie_v in_o the_o dust_n when_o the_o crown_n be_v fall_v from_o our_o head_n shall_v the_o light_n of_o the_o world_n be_v remove_v and_o we_o put_v no_o sack_n clothe_v on_o our_o loin_n let_v we_o consider_v whether_o our_o sin_n have_v not_o occasion_v the_o removal_n of_o god_n prophet_n and_o if_o they_o have_v let_v we_o speedy_o repent_v of_o they_o and_o turn_v from_o they_o lest_o we_o provoke_v god_n far_a to_o stretch_v out_o his_o hand_n and_o take_v more_o labourer_n out_o of_o his_o vineyard_n if_o one_o affliction_n do_v not_o reform_v we_o we_o must_v expect_v another_o will_n quick_o tread_v upon_o its_o heel_n four_o when_o god_n have_v take_v away_o any_o of_o your_o minister_n endeavour_v to_o recollect_v and_o retain_v those_o excellent_a truth_n which_o be_v deliver_v by_o they_o while_o they_o go_v in_o and_o out_o before_o you_o let_v i_o persuade_v you_o who_o attend_v upon_o this_o lecture_n to_o call_v to_o mind_v those_o bless_a truth_n which_o that_o faithful_a servant_n of_o god_n who_o once_o speak_v to_o you_o in_o the_o

the_o word_n of_o the_o lord_n live_v and_o abide_v for_o ever_o those_o counsel_n which_o he_o give_v you_o from_o the_o word_n of_o god_n do_v oblige_v you_o though_o he_o be_v bind_v with_o the_o chain_n of_o death_n five_o when_o your_o minister_n be_v take_v away_o by_o death_n consider_v what_o thing_n be_v commendable_a in_o they_o and_o endeavour_v a_o imitation_n of_o they_o therein_o it_o be_v true_a the_o best_a of_o they_o have_v their_o fail_n and_o imperfection_n moses_n and_o elias_n be_v man_n subject_a to_o the_o like_a passion_n as_o we_o be_v the_o most_o eminent_a saint_n be_v to_o be_v follow_v by_o we_o no_o far_o than_o they_o follow_v christ_n but_o when_o they_o be_v go_v all_o their_o fail_n shall_v be_v bury_v with_o they_o and_o their_o excellency_n shall_v be_v keep_v alive_a in_o our_o memory_n in_o order_n to_o our_o imitation_n of_o they_o and_o indeed_o there_o be_v several_a thing_n of_o this_o nature_n observable_a in_o this_o reverend_n old_a man._n 1._o his_o accurate_a and_o circumspect_a walk_n i_o do_v not_o say_v that_o he_o be_v whole_o free_a from_o sin_n sinless_a perfection_n be_v unattainable_a in_o a_o mortal_a state_n but_o yet_o he_o be_v one_o who_o careful_o endeavour_v to_o avoid_v it_o he_o with_o the_o apostle_n paul_n do_v herein_o exercise_v himself_o to_o have_v always_o a_o conscience_n void_a of_o offence_n towards_o god_n and_o towards_o man_n he_o walk_v with_o that_o caution_n that_o his_o great_a enemy_n have_v nothing_o against_o he_o save_v only_o in_o the_o matter_n of_o his_o god_n that_o holy_a life_n which_o he_o live_v do_v command_v reverence_n even_o from_o those_o who_o be_v enemy_n to_o the_o holy_a doctrine_n which_o he_o preach_v he_o be_v a_o preacher_n out_o of_o

of_o a_o narrow_a and_o private_a but_o of_o a_o large_a and_o public_a spirit_n the_o difference_n of_o his_o fellow_n christian_n opinion_n from_o his_o do_v not_o alienate_v his_o affection_n from_o they_o he_o love_v all_o his_o fellow_n traveller_n though_o they_o do_v not_o walk_v in_o the_o same_o particular_a path_n with_o himself_o he_o embrace_v those_o in_o the_o arm_n of_o his_o
