receive_v it_o but_o o_o thou_o natural_a man_n thou_o speak_v as_o a_o man_n and_o what_o high_o can_v dust_n and_o ash_n go_v nor_o the_o earth_n neither_o be_v that_o reward_n far_o off_o as_o thou_o esteem_v it_o to_o be_v neither_o yet_o be_v that_o death_n which_o make_v the_o separation_n betwixt_o the_o soul_n and_o the_o body_n much_o to_o be_v fear_v for_o the_o time_n which_o david_n prescribe_v to_o the_o age_n and_o life_n of_o man_n 90.10_o be_v only_o 70._o or_o 80._o year_n which_o time_n be_v expire_v the_o righteous_a receive_v their_o reward_n promise_v if_o that_o reward_n then_o be_v long_o delay_v in_o respect_n of_o the_o time_n which_o be_v without_o end_n let_v thy_o own_o conscience_n be_v judge_n neither_o be_v this_o reward_n always_o continue_v for_o the_o space_n foresay_a but_o be_v grant_v soon_o unto_o some_o when_o it_o please_v the_o lord_n for_o we_o see_v the_o term_n of_o man_n life_n be_v uncertain_a in_o respect_n that_o some_o be_v call_v home_o in_o their_o old_a age_n some_o in_o their_o midage_n some_o in_o their_o youth_n and_o some_o in_o their_o very_a infancy_n but_o here_o it_o may_v be_v demand_v why_o the_o lord_n will_v have_v we_o first_o to_o die_v and_o after_o to_o live_v again_o see_v it_o will_v appear_v to_o be_v more_o easy_a to_o continue_v this_o life_n for_o ever_o nor_o to_o put_v end_n to_o this_o life_n and_o then_o make_v we_o to_o live_v again_o i_o answer_v that_o sin_n be_v the_o occasion_n why_o we_o must_v die_v and_o depart_v this_o life_n before_o we_o see_v the_o majesty_n of_o god_n or_o receive_v the_o reward_n promise_v which_o be_v everlasting_a life_n 6.23_o for_o as_o the_o apostle_n paul_n say_v the_o wage_n of_o sin_n be_v death_n but_o then_o thou_o may_v reply_v and_o say_v that_o jesus_n christ_n have_v already_o suffer_v for_o our_o sin_n and_o have_v overcome_v death_n and_o hell_n how_o be_v it_o then_o that_o we_o must_v nevertheless_o underly_v death_n which_o be_v the_o reward_n of_o sin_n i_o answer_v thou_o that_o because_o jesus_n christ_n have_v suffer_v for_o our_o sin_n and_o have_v overcome_v death_n by_o his_o resurrection_n therefore_o he_o shall_v raise_v we_o up_o again_o from_o death_n and_o give_v we_o everlasting_a life_n which_o otherwise_o we_o will_v not_o have_v get_v if_o he_o have_v not_o die_v for_o we_o but_o will_v have_v rise_v again_o to_o everlasting_a death_n and_o torment_n herefore_o as_o the_o apostle_n subjoine_v to_o his_o say_n above_o write_v but_o the_o gift_n of_o god_n be_v eternal_a life_n through_o jesus_n christ_n our_o lord_n notwithstanding_o of_o all_o this_o the_o work_n of_o the_o resurrection_n from_o the_o death_n seem_v most_o hard_a and_o difficile_a to_o flesh_n &_o blood_n but_o o_o man_n where_o be_v thy_o faith_n see_v thou_o may_v by_o very_o natural_a reason_n as_o it_o be_v comprehend_v the_o same_o if_o thou_o will_v have_v respect_n to_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o wonderful_a work_n of_o god_n which_o thou_o see_v daily_a before_o thy_o eye_n and_o will_v compare_v the_o same_o with_o the_o resurrection_n of_o the_o dead_a body_n for_o what_o be_v he_o that_o ever_o will_v think_v that_o the_o seed_n which_o be_v sow_v on_o the_o ground_n &_o lie_v rot_a therein_o shall_v ever_o come_v to_o perfection_n and_o become_v good_a and_o ripe_a corn_n unless_o he_o have_v the_o yearly_a experience_n of_o it_o what_o be_v he_o that_o ever_o will_v think_v that_o those_o herb_n and_o plant_n which_o be_v wither_v and_o dead_a so_o that_o nothing_o remain_v but_o a_o cold_a rot_a root_n within_o the_o earth_n shall_v ever_o revive_v and_o revert_v again_o and_o bring_v forth_o a_o perfect_a stalk_n a_o leaf_n a_o flourish_n and_o seed_n unless_o we_o see_v it_o with_o our_o eye_n or_o what_o be_v he_o that_o see_v the_o sun_n go_v down_o and_o the_o whole_a earth_n overwhelm_v with_o darkness_n that_o ever_o will_v think_v that_o the_o sun_n shall_v rise_v and_o give_v light_a again_o except_o he_o have_v the_o daily_a experience_n of_o it_o who_o will_v think_v that_o a_o man_n which_o be_v fall_v in_o a_o sound_n sleep_n who_o sense_n be_v dead_a without_o either_o sight_n hear_v smell_a or_o feeling_n shall_v ever_o awake_v again_o and_o be_v a_o live_a man_n unless_o we_o see_v it_o a_o thing_n customable_a and_o natural_a to_o all_o man_n i_o suppose_v likewise_o that_o no_o man_n will_v credit_n by_o report_n the_o wonderful_a manner_n of_o the_o conception_n and_o birth_n of_o mankind_n except_o it_o be_v know_v by_o experience_n and_o proof_n certain_o it_o be_v no_o more_o hard_a and_o difficile_a to_o the_o lord_n to_o raise_v the_o dead_a body_n out_o of_o the_o grave_n nor_o to_o work_v these_o thing_n neither_o be_v death_n more_o to_o be_v fear_v of_o the_o godly_a nor_o the_o go_n to_o bed_n to_o sleep_v which_o be_v a_o perfect_a similitude_n of_o death_n for_o as_o man_n go_v to_o bed_v in_o the_o evening_n sleep_v all_o the_o night_n and_o wake_v and_o rise_v up_o again_o in_o the_o morning_n so_o do_v the_o body_n in_o very_a deed_n sleep_n and_o repose_v in_o the_o grave_n overshadow_a with_o night_n &_o darkness_n but_o in_o the_o morning_n when_o christ_n jesus_n shall_v appear_v in_o the_o cloud_n 15.52_o the_o body_n shall_v rise_v again_o at_o the_o blast_n of_o the_o trumpet_n and_o shall_v enjoy_v the_o perfect_a light_n of_o the_o day_n during_o the_o which_o space_n man_n shall_v not_o think_v long_o for_o what_o langor_z can_v the_o body_n have_v which_o be_v a_o

separation_n of_o the_o soul_n from_o the_o body_n and_o the_o come_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n be_v but_o the_o length_n as_o it_o be_v of_o a_o night_n but_o because_o thou_o o_o worldly_a man_n have_v not_o have_v the_o experience_n of_o the_o resurrection_n like_a as_o thou_o have_v have_v of_o the_o thing_n above_o specify_v which_o be_v no_o less_o marvellous_a thou_o can_v hardly_o believe_v it_o but_o unto_o such_o as_o constant_o believe_v the_o same_o and_o hope_n for_o the_o reward_n of_o everlasting_a life_n i_o will_v brief_o declare_v by_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n the_o
