Chaloner AN HOMILIE OF Chrysostome FOVR daies haue I spent in expounding vnto you the parable of Lazarus lading furth such treasour as in that botched body we found hydden whiche was neither gold nor siluer nor iewels but rather religion constant courage suffrance much patience Forlike as these slydyng transitory treasures are outwardly couerid with brambles thistles and rugged heth and natheles in digging deaper great richesse is discouered So fynde we in Lazarus botches outwardely but withinwarde substance beyonde estimation a body diseased but a noble and liuely spirite in whom that saieng of the apostle is fulfilled howe well the vtter man is corrupted so well the inner man is renewid And truly I might this day also wade in the same parable cōfutyng suche heretikes as reproue the olde Testament with the Patriarches yea and spare not to whette theyr tounges against god the maker of al thinges But for I wolde not my wordes all of one thyng shulde to muche glutte you these disputations refer I to an other season and now let vs see what we can saye in a newe matter Parde ye knowe that euer one kynde of meate soone squaymysheth the stomak wheras chāge quickeneth a continual apetite To the ende therfore we vse the like in our sermon let vs after a longe space loke backe agayne vpon saynt Paule For as this present day is red vnto vs very apoyntedly a place of y e apostle and handesomely agreeth that that now we intend to say with that we haue afore sayde Ye haue herd then Paul declaring and sayeng Brethren I wolde not haue you vnwyttyng what is become of those that sleape least ye-make dole and mourne as others do that want hope That of Lazarus was a strong sinew of the gospel and this nowe is the voice of thapostle but in effect their tunes accorde For as in that parable I treated much of the resurrection of the iudgemente to come so hathe this text brought me backe now into the self same argument because if we digge out well this place of the apostle we shall not misse of the very same treasure For then my hole oration tendid to this effect that y e hearers might be taught how nothing in thys worlde was to be reputed for goodly but y t rather in our hope we shuld marche on further hauynge dayly before our eyes the dome of our iudge howe redoutable his iudgement is of what sterne grauenes we shuld fynde him And doth not Paule with these wordes counseill vs the like But herkē ye Of those that slepe I wolde not haue you ignorant to thend ye mourne not as other do who haue no hope For and if we beleue that Iesꝰ is dead vprisē so those that in Iesꝰ do slepe god shal lead with hym But in chiefe this is worth the serche to be knowen why when he speketh of Christ his departing out of life he calleth death and where he speaketh of oure deathe he doth name it a slepe and not deathe For he said nat of the deade what then of those that slepe a litle after so those that in Iesus do slepe nat those that in Iesus are deade god shal lead with him And then agayn We that liue that are left til the commynge of Christe shall nat preuent them that ar on sleape Nat somuch as here said he that ar dead but thrise making mention therof thrise death he called a slepe But nat so of Christ as for and if we beleue that Iesus is dead he sayde nat is on slepe but deade and wherfore calleth he it Christꝭ deth and our slepe For nat rashely at all auentures but rather vpon some great and depe respecte hathe he vsed this obseruation of wordes So speakyng of Christe he called it his deathe to the ende the same myght be thought a passion in him and as to vs he qualifieth it with the name of slepe that therby he myght comeforte our sorow For the cause wherof procedeth the resurrection boldely he called death but where all is grounded on hope that nameth he a slepe seming with the veray worde to comforte vs and geue vs good hope Inasmuch as he that slepith shal ryse againe and death is naught els but a longe slepe For do nat obiect me with this that the deade heare nat speake nat see nat nor fele nat seing that a slepyng man hathe no parte of all these But if algates I must reherce some wondre howe say you to this That the soule of hym that sleapeth dothe after a maner slepe also the deade do wake But a dead man saiest thou putrifieth and rottith chaungid into duste and asshes what therof my freind that makith the more for vs. For incase a lādlord purposing to reedifie an olde and ruinous house shuld as he must fyrst of all transport the tenauntes some where els then plucke down the olde buyldyng raysyng it more stately thē euer it was this dede trowe I in nothing offendith the tenauntes but muche more cheareth them bycause they regard nat somuch the present defacing as with theyr mynd they comprehēd the plat of the house that shal be but nat as yet to be vewed at eye Euyn so doth god after lyke rate dissolue our bodyes deductyng our soules the tenauntes as out of an house to thend the same beyng ones new repayred he may with greatter glory repossesse thē again therin Lette vs nat therfore somuche counte vpon this present in maner defasyng as on the gorgeousnes that our house shal be of For admitte one hadde a copper ymage fordone with longe age and rustynes parde he breaketh it and in the fornace newe meltith it to make it semelier then euer it was And as that dissoluing in the fornace is nat thutter distruction of thimage but rather a renewyng to the same So is the dissolution of our bodies
