his_o death_n resurrection_n and_o ascension_n speak_v of_o they_o thus_o interest_v in_o he_o as_o those_o who_o already_o sit_v in_o heavenly_a place_n ver_fw-la 6._o they_o do_v not_o sit_v personal_o but_o in_o their_o representative_a as_o the_o people_n of_o england_n sit_v in_o parliament_n by_o their_o representative_a and_o as_o the_o people_n yet_o unborn_a may_v be_v say_v to_o sin_n in_o adam_n because_o he_o be_v a_o person_n that_o stand_v up_o in_o the_o stead_n of_o all_o so_o with_o as_o much_o propriety_n of_o speech_n may_v the_o people_n of_o god_n now_o on_o the_o earth_n be_v say_v to_o sit_v in_o heavenly_a place_n in_o that_o christ_n who_o stand_v up_o for_o they_o and_o in_o their_o name_n be_v there_o ascend_v and_o sit_v down_o quest_n 2._o can_v christ_n be_v say_v to_o ascend_v in_o both_o nature_n or_o no_o do_v he_o ascend_v as_o god_n if_o so_o his_o motion_n overthrow_v his_o omnipresence_n now_o for_o answer_v hereto_o you_o must_v know_v that_o ascension_n be_v take_v two_o way_n 1._o figurative_o in_o regard_n of_o state_n and_o condition_n and_o so_o we_o say_v a_o man_n get_v up_o or_o come_v down_o as_o his_o estate_n and_o honour_n grow_v or_o decline_v though_o he_o move_v not_o in_o place_n 2._o it_o be_v take_v proper_o for_o local_a motion_n a_o motion_n from_o a_o low_a to_o a_o high_a place_n now_o both_o these_o may_v be_v admit_v to_o their_o place_n in_o christ_n ascension_n though_o not_o both_o to_o both_o nature_n for_o we_o must_v know_v that_o christ_n be_v a_o compound_n person_n a_o person_n consist_v of_o two_o nature_n the_o divine_a and_o humane_a now_o than_o the_o divine_a nature_n can_v be_v only_o say_v to_o ascend_v in_o regard_n of_o condition_n and_o state_n when_o that_o which_o lie_v obscure_v and_o veil_v in_o dust_n and_o flesh_n come_v to_o have_v its_o glory_n and_o perfection_n to_o be_v manifest_v and_o to_o shine_v forth_o more_o clear_o then_o be_v he_o say_v to_o ascend_v in_o his_o divine_a nature_n so_o far_o forth_o as_o ascension_n presuppose_v a_o change_n it_o may_v by_o no_o mean_n be_v predicate_v of_o the_o divine_a nature_n but_o there_o may_v be_v a_o ascension_n in_o respect_n of_o manifestation_n which_o do_v not_o imply_v a_o change_n but_o a_o more_o full_a appearance_n as_o a_o bright_a candle_n in_o a_o lantern_n be_v the_o same_o whether_o the_o lantern_n be_v cover_v or_o clean_o wipe_v and_o yet_o the_o light_n be_v not_o alike_o discover_v in_o the_o one_o as_o in_o the_o other_o so_o that_o the_o change_n be_v not_o at_o all_o in_o the_o candle_n but_o in_o the_o lantern_n 2._o the_o divine_a nature_n may_v be_v say_v to_o ascend_v causal_o in_o as_o much_o as_o he_o cause_v the_o local_a ascent_n of_o the_o humane_a nature_n but_o now_o christ_n man_n ascend_v both_o in_o regard_n of_o state_n and_o place_n too_o 1._o in_o regard_n of_o state_n in_o that_o he_o receive_v that_o glory_n and_o these_o perfection_n which_o before_o he_o have_v not_o for_o till_o he_o be_v ascend_v his_o manhead_n be_v not_o glorify_v 2._o in_o regard_n of_o place_n in_o that_o he_o leave_v those_o low_a seat_n of_o the_o earth_n and_o by_o the_o power_n of_o his_o divine_a nature_n be_v carry_v up_o to_o those_o mansion_n which_o be_v above_o the_o heaven_n we_o may_v learn_v what_o his_o ascension_n be_v by_o his_o descension_n his_o descension_n be_v not_o say_v the_o school_n proper_a but_o metaphorical_a in_o respect_n of_o his_o divine_a nature_n non_fw-fr mutatione_n loci_fw-la vel_fw-la motu_fw-la aliquo_fw-la locali_fw-la it_o be_v not_o the_o change_n of_o place_n or_o local_a motion_n as_o if_o he_o be_v come_v off_o that_o glorious_a and_o holy_a place_n that_o he_o may_v come_v down_o

earth_n which_o he_o have_v not_o assume_v in_o heaven_n and_o so_o i_o may_v by_o parity_n of_o reason_n say_v that_o his_o ascension_n be_v humanam_fw-la naturam_fw-la in_o terrâ_fw-la
