we_o in_o this_o life_n let_v she_o be_v poor_a and_o persecute_v drive_v into_o wilderness_n and_o cave_n of_o the_o earth_n it_o be_v so_o of_o old_a when_o idolatrous_a gentilism_n swager_v it_o

to_o sink_v she_o in_o the_o sea_n let_v we_o not_o for_o all_o that_o judge_v the_o worse_a of_o she_o nor_o leave_v the_o temple_n of_o god_n to_o run_v over_o to_o the_o temple_n of_o idol_n and_o

other_o happiness_n but_o in_o this_o life_n if_o in_o this_o life_n only_o there_o be_v hope_n christian_n be_v of_o all_o most_o miserable_a but_o yet_o all_o other_o also_o be_v miserable_a too_o for_o why_o their_o happiness_n which_o here_o they_o have_v be_v but_o for_o a_o few_o year_n and_o after_o that_o come_v death_n than_o judgement_n and_o everlasting_a misery_n ah_o my_o brethren_n it_o be_v a_o woeful_a estate_n for_o one_o to_o be_v a_o man_n of_o this_o world_n who_o portion_n be_v in_o this_o life_n as_o it_o be_v psal._n 17._o 14._o when_o all_o the_o happiness_n a_o man_n care_n for_o or_o look_v after_o be_v this_o that_o he_o have_v money_n enough_o friend_n enough_o store_n of_o land_n and_o live_n great_a honour_n much_o ease_n variety_n of_o pleasure_n with_o such_o other_o thing_n as_o serve_v only_o to_o the_o fill_n of_o our_o belly_n and_o satisfy_v of_o a_o few_o base_a and_o earthly_a affection_n yet_o this_o be_v all_o which_o most_o man_n desire_v and_o whereafter_o their_o heart_n do_v run_v all_o day_n of_o their_o life_n they_o never_o look_v high_o than_o these_o low_a part_n of_o the_o world_n what_o pity_n be_v it_o to_o see_v a_o man_n so_o noble_a a_o creature_n bear_v unto_o immortality_n and_o a_o everlasting_a be_v yet_o to_o spend_v a_o fifty_o or_o sixty_o year_n in_o this_o life_n and_o yet_o scarce_o ever_o think_v serious_o of_o another_o world_n till_o there_o be_v no_o remedy_n but_o that_o he_o must_v go_v out_o of_o this_o brethren_n take_v we_o notice_n of_o this_o fault_n and_o know_v we_o that_o this_o world_n be_v not_o our_o rest_a place_n let_v we_o now_o forsake_v it_o in_o our_o affection_n and_o let_v our_o life_n testify_v that_o we_o be_v such_o as_o seek_v after_o a_o country_n not_o earthly_a but_o heavenly_a where_o we_o shall_v have_v a_o more_o endure_a substance_n than_o all_o the_o treasure_n of_o this_o world_n thus_o much_o of_o the_o first_o point_n from_o the_o 19_o verse_n i_o come_v unto_o the_o next_o word_n wherein_o the_o apostle_n confute_v the_o former_a absurdity_n show_v that_o godly_a christian_n be_v not_o to_o be_v account_v more_o miserable_a than_o all_o other_o forasmuch_o as_o their_o hope_n in_o christ_n be_v for_o the_o life_n to_o come_v as_o well_o as_o this_o life_n but_o now_o say_v he_o christ_n be_v rise_v yea_o may_v they_o say_v but_o what_o be_v that_o to_o we_o very_o much_o for_o he_o rise_v that_o we_o may_v rise_v he_o be_v become_v the_o first_o fruit_n of_o they_o that_o sleep_v he_n be_v the_o first_o that_o rise_v from_o the_o dead_a and_o be_v the_o cause_n to_o raise_v all_o other_o up_o the_o instruction_n that_o brief_o we_o learn_v from_o hence_o be_v this_o that_o the_o resurrection_n of_o christ_n be_v the_o cause_n of_o our_o resurrection_n to_o life_n and_o glory_n this_o the_o apostle_n intend_v when_o he_o say_v joint_o together_o christ_n be_v rise_v and_o become_v the_o first_o fruit_n of_o such_o as_o sleep_v i._n e._n be_v dead_a christ_n may_v be_v call_v the_o first_o fruit_n of_o they_o that_o rise_v from_o death_n in_o a_o double_a respect_n 1._o because_o christ_n be_v the_o first_o that_o rise_v from_o death_n which_o we_o must_v understand_v with_o some_o limitation_n for_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o other_o be_v raise_v from_o the_o dead_a before_o christ_n resurrection_n as_o we_o read_v of_o diverse_a in_o the_o old_a and_o new_a testament_n but_o here_o be_v the_o difference_n between_o they_o and_o christ_n 1._o they_o rose_z by_o the_o power_n of_o christ_n christ_n by_o his_o own_o power_n he_o have_v power_n as_o to_o lay_v down_o so_o to_o take_v it_o to_o himself_o again_o be_v god_n as_o well_o as_o man_n of_o himself_o he_o be_v able_a to_o quicken_v his_o own_o body_n so_o can_v not_o they_o 2._o christ_n rose_n but_o die_v no_o more_o the_o other_o rose_n unto_o life_n but_o die_v again_o as_o lazarus_n etc._n etc._n who_o taste_v twice_o of_o temporal_a death_n so_o then_o christ_n be_v the_o first_o of_o all_o the_o dead_a that_o raise_v himself_o unto_o a_o everlasting_a life_n 2._o because_o christ_n be_v the_o cause_n why_o all_o man_n else_o rise_v from_o the_o dead_a this_o be_v chief_o intend_v by_o the_o apostle_n when_o he_o say_v christ_n be_v the_o first_o fruit_n of_o they_o that_o sleep_n the_o first_o fruit_n be_v by_o the_o law_n deut._n 26._o 1._o &_o seq_n to_o be_v offer_v unto_o the_o lord_n before_o such_o time_n as_o the_o jew_n may_v eat_v of_o the_o rest_n of_o their_o harvest_n by_o that_o oblation_n the_o whole_a harvest_n be_v sanctify_v unto_o their_o lawful_a use_n as_o it_o be_v levit._n 23._o 14._o and_o therefore_o the_o apostle_n say_v rom._n 1._o 16._o if_o the_o first_o fruit_n be_v holy_a so_o be_v the_o whole_a lump_n namely_o after_o the_o consecrate_v of_o the_o first_o fruit_n all_o the_o remainder_n may_v lawful_o be_v use_v in_o a_o good_a and_o holy_a manner_n from_o this_o custom_n the_o apostle_n draw_v the_o metaphor_n call_v christ_n the_o first_o fruit_n of_o the_o dead_a namely_o that_o as_o by_o they_o all_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o store_n be_v consecrate_v so_o in_o and_o by_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n rise_v out_o of_o his_o grave_n the_o body_n of_o all_o the_o elect_n shall_v receive_v this_o power_n and_o privilege_n to_o break_v asunder_o the_o band_n of_o death_n and_o return_v to_o life_n and_o bless_a immortality_n which_o come_v to_o pass_v in_o a_o
