spirit_n of_o god_n who_o be_v so_o far_o from_o lament_v that_o on_o the_o contrary_n they_o rejoice_v at_o the_o death_n of_o the_o godly_a man_n because_o he_o stand_v in_o their_o way_n they_o can_v not_o follow_v their_o work_n of_o darkness_n as_o they_o will_v but_o he_o hinder_v they_o he_o stand_v in_o their_o light_n they_o can_v not_o run_v on_o in_o sin_n and_o wickedness_n but_o he_o will_v be_v reprove_v admonish_a and_o tell_v they_o of_o their_o fault_n and_o this_o make_v they_o long_o for_o the_o good_a man_n end_n and_o to_o rejoice_v in_o it_o when_o it_o do_v come_v these_o do_v not_o consider_v that_o when_o the_o righteous_a be_v take_v from_o the_o earth_n than_o they_o lie_v open_a unto_o the_o judgemens_fw-la of_o god_n but_o as_o the_o sodomite_n thrust_v out_o just_a lot_n out_o of_o their_o city_n that_o so_o god_n vengeance_n may_v fall_v the_o soon_o upon_o they_o for_o till_o he_o be_v go_v the_o lord_n will_v not_o destroy_v they_o gen._n 19_o 21._o even_o so_o do_v these_o man_n desire_v to_o be_v rid_v of_o the_o righteous_a and_o rejoice_v when_o they_o be_v take_v from_o they_o not_o consider_v that_o they_o be_v open_a to_o god_n vengeance_n which_o hang_v over_o their_o head_n ready_a to_o devour_v they_o we_o ought_v then_o to_o be_v most_o grieve_v for_o the_o death_n of_o the_o righteous_a when_o any_o of_o the_o saint_n be_v take_v away_o by_o death_n oh_o what_o a_o comfort_n be_v a_o righteous_a man_n to_o the_o child_n of_o god_n what_o a_o feel_n of_o grace_n be_v there_o in_o such_o a_o one_o what_o comfortable_a word_n come_v there_o from_o the_o mouth_n of_o such_o man_n how_o full_a of_o comfortable_a speech_n be_v this_o poor_a man_n always_o minister_a comfort_n to_o those_o that_o come_v to_o visit_v he_o what_o a_o loss_n be_v this_o then_o unto_o we_o it_o be_v more_o than_o if_o thousand_o of_o the_o wicked_a have_v go_v together_o and_o shall_v we_o not_o mourn_v for_o the_o loss_n of_o such_o a_o one_o if_o one_o of_o our_o family_n or_o friend_n die_v we_o can_v mourn_v for_o they_o and_o good_a reason_n and_o shall_v we_o not_o mourn_v for_o the_o loss_n of_o one_o of_o god_n saint_n one_o of_o the_o spiritual_a family_n one_o of_o our_o fellow_n member_n in_o this_o then_o examine_v thyself_o how_o it_o be_v with_o thou_o when_o thou_o hear_v of_o any_o of_o the_o faithful_a that_o be_v take_v away_o be_v thou_o grieve_v for_o it_o do_v thou_o lament_v and_o mourn_v for_o it_o if_o thou_o do_v not_o sure_o thou_o be_v no_o true_a christian_n for_o the_o child_n of_o god_n can_v choose_v but_o lay_v it_o to_o heart_n and_o lament_v when_o any_o of_o the_o righteous_a be_v take_v from_o among_o they_o as_o israel_n lament_v the_o death_n of_o samuel_n 1_o sam._n 25._o 1._o now_o concern_v the_o sin_n of_o the_o people_n in_o not_o regard_v nor_o lay_v it_o to_o heart_n this_o be_v a_o great_a sin_n of_o security_n in_o they_o in_o that_o they_o do_v as_o it_o be_v rest_n on_o their_o pillow_n and_o cry_v peace_n unto_o themselves_o notwithstanding_o god_n judgement_n upon_o they_o in_o take_v away_o the_o righteous_a and_o free_v they_o from_o the_o evil_a to_o come_v we_o note_v that_o doctr._n when_o god_n will_v bring_v any_o great_a judgement_n upon_o a_o people_n or_o nation_n he_o will_v ordinary_o take_v away_o his_o faithful_a servant_n from_o among_o they_o that_o so_o they_o may_v be_v free_v from_o the_o evil_a to_o come_v thus_o good_a josiah_n must_v perish_v in_o his_o young_a year_n that_o so_o he_o may_v not_o be_v take_v with_o the_o evil_a to_o come_v i_o will_v gather_v thou_o unto_o thy_o father_n faith_n god_n and_o thou_o shall_v go_v to_o thy_o grave_n in_o peace_n and_o thy_o eye_n shall_v not_o see_v all_o the_o evil_a that_o i_o will_v bring_v upon_o this_o place_n 2_o king_n 22._o 20._o so_o when_o god_n tell_v abraham_n of_o the_o bondage_n and_o captivity_n whereunto_o he_o will_v bring_v his_o posterity_n he_o say_v thou_o shall_v go_v to_o thy_o father_n in_o peace_n gen._n 15._o 13._o and_o thus_o it_o be_v with_o the_o ancient_a father_n saint_n augustine_n when_o the_o cruel_a vandal_n besiege_v his_o city_n he_o pray_v that_o the_o lord_n will_v either_o take_v he_o away_o or_o cause_v they_o to_o leave_v the_o siege_n and_o the_o lord_n hear_v he_o and_o take_v he_o away_o and_o present_o after_o the_o vandal_n destroy_v the_o city_n so_o luther_n write_v upon_o this_o text_n say_v that_o the_o lord_n after_o his_o death_n will_v bring_v great_a affliction_n upon_o germany_n and_o two_o year_n after_o it_o so_o fall_v out_o indeed_o thus_o ordinary_o god_n take_v away_o his_o servant_n from_o the_o evil_a to_o come_v see_v here_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n unto_o his_o child_n in_o that_o he_o take_v they_o away_o from_o among_o the_o wicked_a he_o call_v they_o out_o of_o this_o world_n that_o they_o may_v not_o partake_v of_o the_o evil_a to_o come_v shall_v any_o one_o then_o think_v it_o a_o curse_n to_o be_v take_v away_o betimes_o in_o his_o young_a year_n nay_o happy_a be_v he_o that_o be_v take_v away_o from_o these_o miserable_a and_o fearful_a time_n wherein_o the_o judgement_n of_o god_n for_o our_o sin_n hang_v over_o our_o head_n and_o be_v ready_a every_o day_n to_o seize_v upon_o we_o second_o see_v that_o god_n when_o he_o mean_v to_o bring_v any_o heavy_a judgement_n upon_o a_o people_n do_v ordinary_o take_v away_o the_o righteous_a from_o the_o evil_a to_o come_v this_o show_n that_o when_o the_o righteous_a be_v take_v from_o among_o we_o we_o be_v certain_o to_o expect_v some_o judgement_n of_o god_n upon_o we_o for_o these_o be_v they_o which_o stand_v in_o the_o gap_n and_o keep_v off_o the_o fire_n of_o god_n wrath_n from_o we_o that_o it_o shall_v not_o consume_v we_o but_o now_o be_v go_v we_o lie_v open_a to_o the_o judgement_n of_o god_n and_o therefore_o when_o any_o righteous_a man_n be_v take_v from_o we_o the_o loss_n of_o they_o ought_v to_o drive_v we_o to_o repentance_n lest_o god_n judgement_n come_v present_o upon_o we_o and_o consume_v we_o therefore_o we_o must_v forsake_v our_o sin_n and_o evil_a way_n and_o perform_v new_a obedience_n unto_o god_n so_o will_v he_o be_v merciful_a unto_o we_o yea_o he_o will_v be_v a_o shield_n of_o defence_n unto_o we_o and_o a_o wall_n of_o fire_n about_o we_o and_o he_o will_v turn_v away_o his_o judgement_n from_o we_o belove_a in_o the_o lord_n we_o be_v here_o assemble_v to_o perform_v this_o last_o christian_a duty_n
