B03501	The mystery of faith opened up: or Some sermons concerning faith (two where of were not formerly printed.) Wherein the nature, excellency, and usefulness of that noble grace is much cleared, and the practice thereof most powerfully pressed. Whereunto are added other three sermons, two concerning the great salvation, one of these not formerly printed, and a third concerning death. / By that pious and worthy servant of Jesus Christ, Mr. Andrew Gray, late minister of the Gospel in Glasgow. All these sermons being now carefully revised, and much corrected.	Gray, Andrew, 1633-1656.; Traill, Robert, 1642-1716.; Stirling, John, b. 1621?	1668 (1668)	Wing G1616; ESTC R177630	121,416	225

there_o be_v these_o seven_o advantage_n which_o attend_v those_o who_o live_v within_o the_o continual_a sight_n of_o this_o truth_n that_o they_o must_v die_v first_o the_o faith_n of_o approach_a

day_n the_o night_n sm_v when_o no_o man_n can_v work_v that_o i●_n death_n be_v approach_v therefore_o i_o must_v work_v it_o be_v clear_a also_o 2_o pet._n 1.12_o compare_v with_o verse_n 14._o in_o the_o 12._o verse_n peter_n be_v exceed_o diligent_a in_o his_o duty_n and_o the_o ground_n of_o his_o diligence_n be_v in_o the_o 14._o verse_n know_v that_o short_o i_o must_v put_v off_o this_o

of_o thy_o harp_n and_o thy_o music_n will_v quick_o cease_v o_o but_o death_n will_v make_v thou_o have_v a_o low_a esteem_n of_o the_o world_n o_o blessed_a be_v the_o person_n who_o have_v those_o

to_o cry_v forth_o at_o death_n o_o curse_a person_n that_o i_o be_o that_o ever_o i_o make_v the_o world_n my_o god_n alace_o that_o i_o content_v myself_o with_o the_o world_n therefore_o i_o say_v unto_o thou_o who_o be_v such_o a_o one_o o_o stay_v thy_o pursuit_n after_o the_o world_n for_o death_n be_v approach_v that_o will_v cause_v all_o thy_o worldly_a comfort_n to_o evanish_v 4._o when_o a_o christian_a believe_v this_o truth_n that_o he_o must_v die_v it_o will_v be_v a_o exceed_o great_a restraint_n to_o keep_v he_o from_o sin_v as_o be_v clear_a job_n 31.13_o compare_v

you_o to_o say_v o_o temptation_n what_o shall_v i_o answer_v to_o god_n when_o he_o rise_v up_o to_o reprove_v i_o if_o i_o shall_v yield_v unto_o thou_o likewise_o eccles_n 11.9_o where_o solomon_n

under_o every_o cross_n wherewith_o he_o meet_v such_o a_o christian_a will_v hardly_o meet_v with_o a_o cross_n but_o he_o will_v quiet_v himself_o with_o this_o death_n will_v put_v i_o beyond_o

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

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
