word_n may_v be_v reduce_v to_o four_o head_n 1._o the_o ground_n of_o the_o belief_n of_o a_o christian_a concern_v this_o change_n of_o a_o corruptible_a and_o mortal_a into_o a_o incorruptible_a and_o immortal_a body_n 2._o the_o many_o and_o great_a advantage_n which_o will_v accrue_v to_o those_o who_o body_n shall_v be_v at_o last_o in_o this_o extraordinary_a manner_n transfigure_v 3._o

arrive_v at_o this_o change_n which_o will_v be_v so_o very_o much_o every_o way_n for_o the_o better_a that_o whensoever_o we_o shall_v leave_v these_o earthly_a tabernacle_n in_o which_o we_o shall_v dwell_v but_o a_o few_o day_n and_o peradventure_o whilst_o those_o last_o incommodious_o enough_o we_o may_v by_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n and_o the_o ministration_n of_o his_o holy_a angel_n be_v receive_v into_o everlasting_a habitation_n 1._o i_o begin_v with_o the_o ground_n upon_o which_o we_o believe_v that_o the_o body_n shall_v be_v raise_v and_o make_v celestial_a in_o the_o heaven_n and_o corrupt_v no_o more_o and_o die_v no_o more_o that_o the_o body_n be_v mortal_a be_v a_o article_n in_o every_o man_n creed_n though_o many_o live_v as_o if_o they_o have_v not_o spend_v a_o thought_n about_o die_v and_o upon_o the_o account_n which_o after_o death_n must_v be_v make_v by_o they_o that_o the_o body_n shall_v rise_v revixisse_fw-la be_v a_o doctrine_n which_o the_o primitive_a christian_n speak_v of_o with_o such_o great_a assurance_n that_o as_o the_o heathen_a in_o minutius_n felix_n observe_v a_o man_n that_o hear_v they_o will_v almost_o think_v they_o themselves_o be_v already_o rise_v and_o though_o the_o conceit_n of_o origen_n 6._o about_o a_o new_a celestial_a body_n instead_o of_o the_o glorify_a frame_n of_o the_o old_a one_o at_o least_o of_o the_o ideal_o rudiment_n of_o it_o have_v be_v by_o his_o follower_n entertain_v yet_o they_o agree_v with_o other_o christian_n in_o the_o point_n of_o a_o heavenly_a tabernacle_n nevertheless_o all_o man_n in_o all_o age_n have_v not_o have_v a_o faith_n equal_a with_o they_o but_o some_o especial_o in_o we_o so_o overrun_v with_o scepticism_n have_v doubt_v concern_v the_o resurrection_n and_o further_a change_n of_o this_o body_n such_o thing_n enter_v with_o difficulty_n into_o our_o imagination_n of_o which_o no_o instance_n have_v be_v see_v by_o we_o notwithstanding_o which_o we_o have_v reason_n to_o believe_v this_o change_n though_o none_o have_v come_v out_o of_o their_o grave_n to_o show_v we_o it_o and_o here_o i_o appeal_v to_o all_o sensible_a man_n whether_o that_o god_n who_o be_v the_o author_n of_o motion_n by_o which_o all_o alteration_n in_o body_n be_v make_v who_o bring_v this_o goodly_a frame_n of_o the_o world_n out_o of_o a_o heap_n of_o indigested_a matter_n who_o form_v the_o body_n of_o adam_n out_o of_o the_o dust_n who_o have_v so_o frame_v nature_n that_o a_o spring_n of_o vegetable_n shall_v succeed_v their_o death_n in_o winter_n who_o quicken_v die_v seed_n into_o beautiful_a stem_n and_o flower_n and_o fruit_n who_o cause_v even_o the_o dry_a rod_n of_o aaron_n to_o bud_n and_o blossom_n and_o bring_v forth_o almond_n who_o have_v give_v skill_n and_o power_n to_o man_n by_o fire_n and_o other_o natural_a cause_n to_o open_v and_o refine_v the_o gross_a body_n in_o who_o book_n say_v david_n be_v all_o

to_o put_v together_o the_o part_n of_o a_o humane_a body_n which_o he_o make_v contrive_v and_o former_o join_v and_o to_o advance_v the_o frame_n of_o it_o from_o grossness_n to_o purity_n to_o
