why_o they_o may_v not_o the_o body_z which_o be_v dead_a rise_v again_o as_o well_o as_o the_o seed_n and_o if_o the_o bare_a and_o dry_a corn_n bring_v forth_o great_a plenty_n of_o fruit_n after_o it_o be_v dead_a and_o that_o by_o a_o wonderful_a power_n which_o god_n have_v put_v into_o it_o why_o then_o may_v not_o the_o body_n by_o the_o self_n same_o heavenly_a power_n be_v raise_v up_o again_o in_o a_o far_o better_a manner_n then_o wherein_o it_o die_v and_o to_o the_o end_n thou_o may_v not_o still_o marvel_v how_o be_v it_o possible_a that_o man_n shall_v live_v without_o he_o be_v fashion_v into_o a_o live_a soul_n notwithstanding_o although_o this_o soul_n move_v and_o uphold_v the_o wait_n of_o the_o body_n for_o a_o time_n yet_o make_v it_o not_o immortal_a or_o

final_o for_o this_o day_n of_o judgement_n with_o which_o they_o so_o great_o denfend_v themselves_o there_o be_v a_o argument_n come_v to_o my_o mind_n which_o may_v pluck_v this_o error_n clean_o up_o by_o the_o root_n for_o in_o our_o creed_n which_o be_v the_o very_a effect_n of_o all_o our_o belief_n we_o confess_v the_o resurrection_n of_o the_o flesh_n and_o not_o of_o the_o soul_n neither_o be_v there_o any_o place_n leave_v for_o their_o wrangle_n whenas_o they_o will_v tell_v we_o that_o by_o this_o word_n flesh_n be_v mean_v the_o whole_a man_n we_o grant_v they_o that_o it_o be_v sometime_o so_o take_v but_o in_o this_o place_n we_o flat_o deny_v it_o they_o whereas_o word_n which_o be_v very_o plain_a and_o easy_a to_o be_v understand_v be_v set_v forth_o unto_o the_o rude_a and_o ignorant_a people_n in_o very_a deed_n the_o pharysy_n who_o be_v stout_a defender_n and_o and_o mayntayner_n of_o the_o resurrection_n and_o who_o have_v always_o this_o word_n resurrection_n in_o their_o mouth_n do_v not_o yet_o notwithstanding_o many_o time_n believe_v that_o there_o be_v a_o soul_n yet_o do_v they_o still_o lie_v hold_v on_o we_o and_o force_v we_o to_o stick_v unto_o this_o dangerous_a rock_n for_o they_o now_o allege_v the_o word_n of_o s._n paul_n wherein_o he_o tell_v we_o that_o we_o 〈◊〉_d miserable_a than_o all_o man_n if_o the_o dead_a do_v not_o rise_v again_o and_o thus_o they_o frame_v their_o argument_n what_o need_v say_v they_o any_o resurrection_n if_o we_o be_v bless_v before_o the_o resurrection_n but_o that_o which_o be_v more_o what_o be_v that_o great_a misery_n of_o christian_n which_o surpass_v the_o misery_n of_o all_o man_n if_o this_o be_v true_a that_o they_o be_v at_o rest_n while_o the_o residue_n be_v so_o greevous_o torment_v and_o after_o so_o wonderful_a a_o manner_n and_o here_o i_o geve_v they_o warning_n that_o if_o i_o mean_v to_o dally_v and_o shift_v as_o they_o go_v about_o none_o other_o thing_n but_o to_o abuse_v the_o ignorant_a people_n i_o will_v find_v sufficyent_a passage_n enough_o to_o escape_v for_o who_o shall_v let_v i_o from_o follow_v of_o other_o good_a man_n that_o have_v dispute_v not_o of_o the_o last_o general_a resurrection_n in_o which_o after_o the_o corruption_n of_o our_o body_n we_o shall_v receive_v again_o incorruptible_a body_n but_o of_o the_o life_n which_o remain_v for_o we_o after_o this_o mortal_a life_n for_o it_o be_v a_o ordinary_a and_o common_a manner_n in_o the_o scripture_n to_o let_v we_o understand_v by_o this_o speech_n of_o the_o resurrection_n what_o the_o bless_a and_o everlasting_a life_n be_v for_o when_o we_o hear_v it_o speak_v that_o the_o saducee_v deny_v the_o resurrection_n it_o be_v not_o refer_v to_o the_o body_n but_o be_v simple_o speak_v accord_v to_o their_o opynyon_n that_o after_o a_o man_n be_v dead_a there_o be_v no_o memory_n leave_v of_o he_o and_o hereof_o be_v a_o probable_a argument_n that_o whatsoever_o wherewith_o s._n paul_n help_v himself_o to_o strengthen_v that_o which_o he_o have_v say_v shall_v be_v overthrow_v in_o one_o word_n if_o it_o be_v answer_v that_o it_o be_v very_o true_a that_o the_o soul_n live_v and_o that_o the_o body_n which_o shall_v turn_v to_o dust_n can_v by_o no_o mean_n rise_v again_o let_v we_o now_o then_o come_v to_o example_n first_o as_o touch_v this_o say_n they_o which_o be_v dead_a in_o jesus_n christ_n be_v lose_v this_o may_v the_o philosopher_n have_v easy_o confute_v who_o have_v mighty_o and_o constant_o defend_v the_o immortality_n of_o the_o soul_n and_o as_o for_o this_o say_n what_o shall_v they_o do_v who_o be_v baptize_v for_o the_o dead_a it_o be_v very_o easy_o answer_v for_o the_o soul_n live_v after_o death_n and_o to_o this_o which_o follow_v wherefore_o be_v we_o also_o continual_o in_o danger_n it_o may_v be_v answer_v that_o we_o lose_v this_o frail_a life_n to_o recover_v immortal_a life_n wherein_o we_o shall_v live_v a_o great_a deal_n better_o we_o have_v already_o bestow_v many_o word_n whereof_o the_o teachable_a have_v have_v no_o need_n for_o the_o apostle_n himself_o say_v that_o we_o be_v miserable_a if_o our_o hope_n in_o jesus_n christ_n stretch_v itself_o no_o far_o then_o unto_o this_o present_a life_n which_o thing_n 2.3_o psal_n 73._o ver_fw-la 2.3_o even_o by_o the_o testimony_n of_o the_o prophet_n be_v out_o of_o all_o doubt_n who_o confess_v that_o his_o foot_n have_v almost_o foultre_v and_o his_o step_n have_v well_o nigh_o slip_v when_o he_o see_v the_o prosperity_n of_o the_o proud_a and_o wicked_a and_o to_o say_v true_o if_o we_o look_v but_o down_o unto_o our_o foot_n we_o will_v say_v those_o to_o be_v bless_v which_o have_v all_o thing_n come_v to_o pass_v as_o they_o will_v wish_v but_o if_o our_o eye_n look_v far_o of_o we_o will_v call_v they_o bless_v who_o have_v the_o lord_n for_o their_o god_n in_o who_o hand_n be_v the_o issue_n of_o death_n howbeit_o we_o will_v bring_v some_o thing_n which_o shall_v be_v a_o great_a deal_n more_o certain_a by_o which_o we_o will_v not_o only_o repulse_v their_o objection_n but_o also_o declare_v the_o true_a and_o natural_a meaning_n of_o the_o apostle_n be_v glad_a without_o strife_n of_o word_n to_o as_o many_o as_o will_v meek_o and_o curtisly_a learn_v for_o if_o there_o be_v no_o resurrection_n of_o the_o body_n the_o faithful_a may_v of_o very_o right_o be_v call_v accurse_v yea_o be_v there_o none_o other_o reason_n but_o this_o that_o they_o be_v so_o often_o vex_v hurt_v beat_a and_o violent_o handle_v and_o do_v suffer_v in_o their_o body_n such_o extreme_a want_n all_o which_o they_o think_v to_o be_v appoint_v and_o ordain_v for_o a_o everlasting_a blessedness_n because_o they_o be_v disappoint_v of_o this_o hope_n for_o be_v there_o any_o thing_n i_o say_v not_o more_o miserable_a but_o rather_o more_o ridiculous_a they_o to_o see_v and_o behold_v the_o body_n of_o those_o who_o all_o the_o live_v long_a day_n do_v nothing_o else_o but_o sport_n and_o laugh_v in_o the_o fullness_n of_o all_o delight_n and_o pleasure_n and_o contrariwise_o to_o see_v the_o body_n of_o feeblish_v christian_n dead_a through_o hunger_n and_o cold_a and_o press_v with_o all_o kind_n of_o violence_n if_o the_o body_n both_o of_o the_o one_o and_o the_o other_o pearish_v alike_o for_o this_o thing_n can_v i_o very_o well_o confirm_v by_o the_o word_n of_o the_o apostle_n which_o he_o set_v down_o anon_o after_o when_o he_o say_v wherefore_o be_v we_o continual_o in_o danger_n i_o daily_o suffer_v death_n for_o your_o glory_n etc._n etc._n let_v we_o eat_v and_o drink_v for_o to_o morrow_n we_o shall_v die_v it_o be_v a_o great_a deal_n better_o for_o we_o say_v he_o that_o this_o say_n shall_v take_v place_n in_o we_o as_o to_o say_v let_v we_o eat_v and_o drink_v if_o these_o torment_n and_o shame_n which_o we_o suffer_v in_o our_o body_n be_v not_o change_v into_o the_o glory_n which_o we_o hope_v after_o which_o thing_n shall_v never_o be_v without_o it_o be_v in_o the_o resurrection_n of_o the_o body_n furthermore_o although_o i_o shall_v pass_v over_o this_o defence_n yet_o can_v i_o bring_v in_o another_o reason_n that_o we_o be_v more_o miserable_a than_o all_o man_n if_o there_o be_v not_o a_o resurrection_n for_o although_o we_o be_v very_o bless_v before_o the_o resurrection_n yet_o be_v it_o no_o blessedness_n without_o the_o resurrection_n for_o we_o say_v that_o for_o the_o same_o cause_n the_o spirit_n of_o the_o saint_n and_o of_o the_o faithful_a be_v very_o bless_v for_o so_o much_o as_o they_o rest_n in_o the_o hope_n of_o the_o bless_a resurrection_n and_o therefore_o if_o there_o be_v no_o such_o thing_n all_o this_o blessedness_n shall_v turn_v to_o nothing_o wherefore_o the_o say_n of_o the_o apostle_n be_v most_o true_a that_o we_o be_v more_o miserable_a than_o all_o man_n if_o there_o be_v no_o resurrection_n and_o this_o doctrine_n be_v not_o against_o these_o word_n that_o the_o spirit_n of_o the_o saint_n be_v more_o bless_v before_o the_o resurrection_n but_o yet_o it_o be_v by_o reason_n of_o the_o resurrection_n they_o lie_v before_o we_o also_o that_o parcel_n of_o scripture_n which_o be_v write_v in_o the_o epistle_n to_o the_o
