when_o they_o receive_v this_o fullness_n we_o may_v warrantable_o say_v christ_n shall_v be_v more_o glad_a then_o and_o be_v now_o as_o his_o child_n be_v grow_v up_o from_o under_o their_o

heb._n 12._o yet_o because_o they_o have_v body_n unto_o which_o they_o have_v a_o relation_n and_o unto_o which_o they_o be_v ordain_v to_o be_v unite_v they_o in_o this_o respect_n may_v be_v say_v to_o be_v imperfect_a till_o these_o body_n be_v reunite_v and_o glorify_v with_o they_o which_o will_v add_v a_o further_a fullness_n to_o they_o thus_o in_o some_o analogy_n it_o stand_v between_o

and_o so_o according_o have_v affection_n suit_v unto_o this_o his_o relation_n which_o be_v no_o derogation_n from_o he_o at_o all_o the_o scripture_n therefore_o attribute_n some_o affection_n to_o
