our_o head_n 104.1_o psal_n 104.1_o god_n have_v draw_v out_o the_o heaven_n as_o a_o curtain_n that_o it_o may_v be_v full_a of_o glorious_a star_n and_o every_o star_n give_v a_o certain_a document_n and_o lesson_n of_o this_o that_o he_o treat_v of_o the_o certainty_n of_o the_o resurrection_n so_o that_o there_o be_v no_o part_n of_o nature_n void_a but_o all_o proclaim_v this_o doctrine_n of_o the_o resurrection_n and_o he_o prove_v that_o look_v what_o difference_n there_o be_v between_o the_o body_n that_o be_v in_o heaven_n and_o those_o body_n that_o be_v here_o in_o earth_n the_o same_o difference_n there_o shall_v be_v between_o the_o body_n that_o shall_v be_v then_o and_o the_o body_n that_o be_v now_o and_o although_o there_o be_v in_o some_o body_n that_o be_v in_o this_o world_n as_o in_o the_o body_n of_o prince_n and_o the_o body_n of_o beautiful_a man_n and_o woman_n a_o rare_a lustre_n and_o a_o goodly_a glory_n a_o marvellous_a feature_n and_o a_o stamp_n of_o god_n image_n incomparable_a yet_o in_o comparison_n of_o that_o which_o shall_v be_v it_o be_v nothing_o that_o body_n that_o shall_v be_v in_o the_o world_n to_o come_v do_v as_o far_o surpass_v this_o whatsoever_o it_o be_v suppose_v it_o the_o fair_a and_o most_o delicate_a body_n in_o the_o world_n as_o the_o lightsome_a star_n do_v pass_v the_o poor_a stone_n on_o the_o earth_n or_o any_o common_a form_n and_o figure_n in_o the_o earth_n be_v not_o so_o much_o transcend_v by_o the_o glory_n of_o the_o star_n as_o the_o body_n in_o the_o resurrection_n do_v transcend_v and_o surmount_v the_o glory_n of_o any_o thing_n that_o be_v see_v here_o below_o this_o be_v the_o sum_n of_o the_o word_n now_o that_o we_o may_v proceed_v in_o order_n first_o we_o be_v to_o consider_v comparison_n division_n into_o 2._o comparison_n how_o he_o draw_v this_o argument_n from_o heavenly_a body_n and_o compare_v they_o with_o earthly_a body_n wherein_o he_o give_v the_o preferment_n to_o the_o heavenly_a body_n in_o these_o word_n where_o he_o say_v there_o be_v not_o the_o same_o glory_n to_o the_o one_o as_o to_o the_o other_o there_o be_v one_o glory_n of_o the_o heavenly_a and_o another_o of_o the_o earthly_a that_o be_v there_o be_v a_o far_o inferior_a glory_n of_o the_o earthly_a in_o comparison_n of_o that_o which_o be_v heavenly_a then_o second_o he_o make_v a_o comparison_n of_o the_o heavenly_a body_n among_o themselves_o that_o as_o there_o be_v great_a difference_n between_o the_o star_n of_o heaven_n and_o the_o stone_n upon_o the_o earth_n so_o there_o be_v great_a difference_n between_o the_o star_n of_o heaven_n one_o with_o another_o not_o only_o be_v refer_v to_o the_o earth_n which_o can_v make_v no_o comparison_n with_o they_o but_o in_o comparison_n one_o with_o another_o as_o they_o be_v in_o heaven_n some_o of_o they_o be_v of_o one_o magnitude_n and_o some_o of_o another_o some_o of_o they_o be_v of_o one_o lustre_n and_o some_o of_o another_o there_o be_v great_a difference_n there_o also_o some_o of_o the_o father_n have_v understand_v this_o of_o the_o different_a state_n of_o glory_n that_o shall_v be_v in_o heaven_n in_o the_o first_o similitude_n they_o say_v the_o glory_n that_o shall_v be_v reveal_v upon_o the_o son_n of_o god_n shall_v be_v as_o infinite_o beyond_o all_o the_o glory_n that_o be_v now_o as_o the_o glory_n of_o the_o star_n in_o heaven_n excel_v the_o glory_n here_o on_o earth_n and_o for_o the_o other_o point_n of_o difference_n in_o the_o star_n themselves_o thereby_o be_v signify_v that_o the_o just_a shall_v all_o shine_v in_o heaven_n as_o star_n but_o in_o a_o different_a manner_n as_o the_o star_n do_v now_o one_o star_n differ_v from_o another_o in_o glory_n and_o so_o he_o conclude_v all_o this_o parable_n and_o similitude_n so_o be_v the_o resurrection_n of_o the_o dead_a that_o be_v even_o as_o we_o see_v these_o earthly_a thing_n to_o be_v far_o exceed_v by_o the_o heavenly_a in_o all_o kind_n of_o beauty_n in_o all_o kind_n of_o glory_n in_o all_o kind_n of_o durabilitie_n and_o in_o all_o kind_n of_o quality_n which_o be_v commendable_a so_o the_o resurrection_n shall_v be_v that_o be_v the_o body_n that_o shall_v rise_v then_o shall_v far_o exceed_v these_o that_o be_v now_o as_o far_o as_o heavenly_a thing_n exceed_v earthly_a thing_n and_o even_o as_o now_o there_o be_v a_o difference_n between_o star_n that_o all_o be_v not_o alike_o in_o glory_n and_o all_o have_v not_o a_o like_a lustre_n nor_o like_a power_n and_o influence_n so_o then_o in_o the_o resurrection_n there_o shall_v be_v difference_n and_o degree_n every_o man_n shall_v have_v enough_o yet_o notwithstanding_o every_o man_n shall_v not_o have_v the_o same_o of_o these_o thing_n brief_o and_o in_o order_n as_o it_o shall_v please_v the_o lord_n to_o give_v assistance_n and_o first_o concern_v the_o nature_n of_o the_o apostle_n argument_n comparison_n 1._o part_n or_o comparison_n he_o take_v it_o now_o from_o heavenly_a body_n the_o high_a a_o man_n go_v in_o the_o body_n of_o nature_n the_o more_o he_o learn_v and_o the_o

and_o if_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n will_v interpose_v himself_o to_o forbid_v the_o preach_n of_o the_o gospel_n you_o may_v then_o conclude_v for_o other_o matter_n of_o less_o importance_n for_o

paul_n do_v not_o finish_v this_o journey_n according_a to_o his_o promise_n here_o yet_o the_o efficacy_n the_o virtue_n and_o power_n of_o it_o be_v all_o one_o for_o he_o show_v what_o he_o will_v have_v do_v if_o god_n have_v not_o turn_v his_o will_n by_o necessity_n in_o call_v he_o another_o way_n such_o thing_n as_o these_o in_o the_o scripture_n we_o oft_o time_n meet_v withal_o and_o whether_o a_o man_n shall_v insist_v upon_o they_o or_o no_o it_o may_v be_v a_o matter_n of_o disputation_n because_o the_o common_a people_n think_v that_o nothing_o be_v fit_a to_o be_v speak_v of_o but_o that_o which_o make_v for_o morality_n that_o which_o tend_v to_o manner_n they_o call_v that_o only_o edify_v which_o build_v up_o in_o matter_n of_o life_n whereas_o those_o that_o be_v see_v in_o learning_n or_o that_o be_v man_n of_o sense_n they_o know_v that_o edification_n be_v as_o well_o in_o matter_n of_o knowledge_n and_o there_o be_v no_o part_n of_o the_o book_n of_o god_n that_o be_v write_v but_o it_o be_v write_v for_o our_o learning_n to_o build_v we_o up_o first_o out_o of_o our_o ignorance_n and_o then_o second_o to_o build_v we_o from_o wickedness_n to_o newness_n and_o holiness_n of_o life_n for_o the_o second_o can_v never_o be_v without_o the_o first_o therefore_o we_o must_v take_v the_o scripture_n as_o it_o lie_v and_o although_o this_o text_n afford_v no_o great_a matter_n for_o manner_n or_o conversation_n of_o life_n yet_o the_o scholar_n of_o christ_n must_v hear_v his_o word_n preach_v wheresoever_o it_o be_v and_o make_v profit_n by_o
