SECT. III.
Such as are spared from death by the Plague may be considered in their relation as Pastors and People; and the Protection of God over such, should engage them to discharge their mutual duties, as those that would testify their thankfulness to God for continuing them in that Relation. God hath removed by the Plague some ministers that the People shall never hear Preach more, and God hath taken some from every Congregation, of the People, to whom the surviving Ministers shall never offer Christ and Peace unto any more, who are now out of the reach of their reproofs, and exhortations: therefore such Ministers as yet have time to preach unto the People, should improve that little time that God hath given them in so doing; and the People that yet have time to hear their Ministers, should diligently do it, and improve their Ministry for the saving of their souls. But more particularly.
