lord_n make_v a_o new_a heaven_n and_o a_o new_a earth_n according_a to_o his_o promise_n 7.11_o which_o i_o humble_o conceive_v only_o extend_v to_o this_o orb_n of_o earth_n and_o water_n and_o to_o the_o region_n and_o element_n of_o the_o air_n 8.2.19.24_o and_o fire_n these_o two_o last_o be_v most_o frequent_o in_o scripture_n call_v heaven_n that_o flame_v and_o aetherial_a fire_n not_o

the_o wicked_a that_o be_v then_o in_o the_o world_n 1.8_o and_o burn_v up_o their_o work_n shall_v according_o as_o it_o be_v the_o nature_n and_o true_a effect_n and_o property_n of_o fire_n 14._o to_o purge_v and_o purify_v each_o of_o the_o four_o element_n from_o all_o that_o dross_n and_o corruptible_a quality_n that_o have_v intermix_v and_o cleave_v unto_o they_o by_o the_o righteous_a judgement_n and_o curse_v of_o god_n for_o man_n sin_n whence_o shall_v proceed_v that_o admirable_a change_n as_o to_o their_o quality_n although_o not_o of_o their_o substance_n deserve_v the_o name_n in_o the_o scripture_n promise_n of_o a_o new_a heaven_n and_o of_o a_o new_a earth_n as_o it_o be_v most_o excellent_o set_v forth_o by_o saint_n paul_n in_o these_o word_n 8.19_o for_o the_o

reason_n of_o he_o who_o have_v subject_v the_o same_o in_o hope_n because_o the_o creature_n itself_o also_o shall_v be_v deliver_v from_o the_o bondage_n of_o corruption_n 21_o into_o the_o glorious_a liberty_n of_o the_o child_n of_o god_n for_o we_o know_v that_o the_o whole_a creation_n groan_v 22._o and_o travel_v in_o pain_n together_o until_o now_o the_o element_n then_o be_v make_v like_o unto_o the_o heavenly_a supreme_a orb_n pure_a lucid_a and_o incorruptible_a hence_o i_o infer_v that_o these_o four_o element_n be_v thus_o wonderful_o change_v in_o their_o quality_n and_o make_v incorruptible_a in_o which_o respective_o the_o several_a part_n and_o ingredient_n of_o our_o body_n be_v lay_v up_o and_o reserve_v as_o be_v natural_o a_o part_n of_o they_o there_o must_v necessary_o follow_v the_o same_z and_o the_o like_a change_n and_o alteration_n in_o the_o matter_n and_o substance_n of_o our_o body_n also_o whence_o it_o will_v follow_v that_o although_o the_o first_o change_n in_o the_o element_n be_v supernatural_a and_o wonderful_a that_o in_o our_o body_n will_v natural_o follow_v as_o a_o effect_n from_o that_o cause_n our_o great_a god_n as_o in_o the_o first_o creation_n cause_v the_o production_n of_o all_o thing_n out_o of_o their_o first_o matter_n as_o so_o many_o stream_n from_o that_o fountain_n so_o in_o this_o new_a and_o second_o birth_n of_o thing_n he_o as_o a_o rational_a and_o natural_a agent_n produce_v this_o excellent_a change_n in_o the_o forementioned_a quality_n of_o our_o new-raised_a body_n to_o be_v a_o necessary_a and_o certain_a effect_n flow_v from_o the_o change_n of_o the_o principle_n out_o of_o which_o they_o be_v compound_v it_o be_v more_o than_o probable_a that_o the_o resurrection_n of_o our_o body_n shall_v immediate_o succeed_v the_o make_n of_o the_o new_a heaven_n and_o the_o new_a earth_n the_o saint_n habitation_n as_o it_o be_v in_o the_o first_o creation_n when_o the_o lord_n make_v the_o earth_n and_o all_o the_o creature_n first_o before_o he_o make_v man_n the_o lord_n and_o possessor_n of_o it_o 1.26_o and_o they_o the_o premise_n be_v grant_v i_o thence_o conclude_v that_o as_o mortality_n be_v a_o necessary_a effect_n and_o consequent_a of_o corruption_n so_o the_o immortality_n of_o the_o body_n to_o use_v the_o apostle_n phrase_n be_v as_o necessary_a a_o effect_n and_o consequent_a of_o incorruption_n for_o that_o substance_n that_o can_v never_o more_o be_v corrupt_v may_v true_o be_v say_v to_o be_v everlasting_a and_o according_a to_o the_o apostle_n expression_n immortal_a death_n signify_v either_o in_o sensible_a or_o vegetable_a creature_n a_o putrid_a and_o evil_a change_n or_o alteration_n as_o also_o a_o debase_v diminish_v and_o deform_v separation_n as_o be_v the_o curse_n and_o fruit_n of_o sin_n and_o abhorrent_n to_o nature_n have_v hitherto_o discourse_v of_o this_o marvellous_a change_n of_o our_o body_n at_o the_o resurrection_n and_o give_v some_o natural_a reason_n thereof_o as_o a_o philosopher_n i_o must_v now_o as_o a_o christian_a ascend_v high_o and_o prove_v this_o eminent_a change_n to_o proceed_v also_o from_o a_o far_o high_a and_o noble_a cause_n than_o mere_a nature_n even_o from_o the_o spiritual_a real_a and_o mystical_a union_n of_o our_o person_n through_o faith_n and_o the_o eternal_a spirit_n as_o member_n to_o our_o head_n the_o lord_n jesus_n who_o be_v god-man_n bless_v for_o ever_o as_o since_o sin_n god_n have_v enact_v this_o to_o be_v one_o of_o the_o statute_n of_o

the_o body_n as_o have_v be_v show_v return_v to_o its_o proper_a element_n 1.14_o so_o by_o the_o law_n of_o christ_n god-man_n the_o eternal_a word_n that_o be_v make_v flesh_n it_o be_v decree_v and_o affirm_v 6.47_o as_o a_o indubitable_a truth_n that_o he_o that_o believe_v in_o he_o have_v everlasting_a life_n and_o though_o he_o be_v dead_a yet_o shall_v he_o live_v 11.25_o whosoever_o live_v and_o believe_v in_o he_o shall_v never_o die_v 11.26_o from_o hence_o it_o be_v most_o clear_a that_o in_o a_o spiritual_a sense_n the_o death_n of_o the_o saint_n be_v no_o death_n they_o be_v so_o unite_v by_o faith_n that_o although_o the_o soul_n be_v divide_v from_o the_o body_n and_o each_o elementary_a part_n of_o the_o body_n be_v divide_v from_o the_o other_o yet_o neither_o

we_o be_v dead_a in_o a_o natural_a sense_n 3.3_o yet_o we_o live_v spiritual_o in_o and_o by_o his_o spirit_n in_o which_o sense_n also_o the_o whole_a mystical_a body_n of_o christ_n the_o universal_a church_n and_o every_o member_n thereof_o be_v say_v to_o be_v join_v to_o the_o lord_n and_o be_v one_o spirit_n 6.17_o as_o be_v by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n the_o everliving_a god_n that_o

in_o our_o soul_n and_o in_o our_o body_n and_o in_o every_o part_n of_o they_o although_o never_o so_o far_o by_o reason_n of_o a_o natural_a death_n separate_v one_o from_o another_o here_o note_n that_o although_o the_o scripture_n declare_v that_o in_o god_n all_o thing_n live_v move_v and_o have_v their_o be_v as_o he_o be_v their_o creator_n and_o preserver_n and_o in_o who_o 17.28_o and_o

2.20_o the_o life_n which_o i_o now_o live_v in_o the_o flesh_n i_o live_v by_o faith_n in_o the_o son_n of_o god_n nevertheless_o i_o live_v yet_o not_o i_o but_o christ_n live_v in_o i_o our_o

shall_v continue_v to_o eternity_n from_o what_o i_o have_v here_o offer_v although_o in_o great_a weakness_n for_o who_o be_v sufficient_a for_o these_o thing_n i_o hope_v it_o be_v abundant_o clear_v that_o the_o eternal_a life_n of_o the_o saint_n and_o the_o glorious_a incorruptability_n and_o immortality_n of_o their_o body_n flow_v from_o a_o far_o high_a principle_n or_o cause_n

that_o live_v by_o and_o in_o his_o life_n according_a to_o that_o unanswerable_a argument_n of_o our_o lord_n and_o saviour_n 6.57_o as_o the_o live_a father_n have_v send_v i_o and_o i_o live_v by_o
