take_v the_o most_o principal_a place_n of_o scripture_n that_o man_n look_v upon_o which_o speak_v of_o the_o resurrection_n and_o in_o the_o spiritual_a discovery_n of_o they_o if_o there_o be_v any_o thing_n to_o strengthen_v they_o in_o their_o opinion_n i_o shall_v and_o must_v give_v way_n and_o we_o shall_v begin_v with_o that_o which_o be_v the_o prime_a pillar_n of_o their_o faith_n and_o that_o be_v in_o the_o 1._o of_o the_o corinth_n 15._o from_o the_o begin_n to_o the_o end_n of_o it_o it_o be_v the_o whole_a subject_n of_o the_o discourse_n therein_o to_o treat_v of_o the_o resurrection_n the_o drift_n of_o the_o apostle_n be_v to_o prove_v the_o spiritual_a resurrection_n of_o christ_n to_o be_v as_o sure_a and_o certain_a as_o his_o fleshly_a and_o by_o the_o same_o argument_n that_o he_o prove_v the_o one_o by_o the_o same_o he_o also_o prove_v the_o other_o in_o a_o spiritual_a sense_n and_o the_o comparison_n lie_v not_o betwixt_o the_o fleshly_a rise_n of_o christ_n and_o the_o fleshly_a rise_n of_o man_n as_o most_o man_n imagine_v but_o betwixt_o the_o fleshly_a rise_n of_o christ_n in_o the_o humanity_n and_o his_o spiritual_a rise_n in_o the_o divinity_n and_o so_o all_o along_o you_o shall_v see_v the_o comparison_n hold_v betwixt_o the_o natural_a and_o the_o spiritual_a and_o not_o betwixt_o the_o natural_a and_o the_o natural_a and_o that_o we_o may_v see_v plain_o it_o appear_v in_o the_o 47._o verse_n the_o first_o man_n be_v of_o the_o earth_n earthly_a the_o second_o man_n be_v from_o heaven_n who_o be_v the_o lord_n so_o that_o we_o see_v he_o compare_v the_o outward_a earthly_a man_n and_o the_o lord_n from_o heaven_n which_o be_v the_o spiritual_a and_o show_v evident_o that_o it_o be_v not_o the_o earthly_a man_n that_o be_v raise_v but_o the_o spiritual_a and_o so_o christ_n after_o the_o flesh_n be_v but_o of_o the_o earthly_a man_n and_o so_o must_v be_v destroy_v and_o subdue_v as_o well_o as_o other_o thing_n and_o form_n which_o do_v accompany_v that_o earthly_a be_v and_o as_o the_o one_o vanish_v out_o of_o sight_n before_o the_o apostle_n so_o must_v the_o other_o and_o that_o this_o may_v not_o seem_v strange_a to_o any_o man_n that_o the_o flesh_n of_o christ_n must_v be_v destroy_v as_o well_o as_o other_o thing_n it_o be_v plain_a in_o the_o 28._o verse_n so_o that_o it_o be_v apparent_a that_o the_o son_n of_o man_n be_v of_o the_o first_o adam_n after_o the_o flesh_n must_v as_o well_o be_v subdue_v and_o perish_v with_o the_o fleshly_a form_n and_o administration_n that_o do_v accompany_v he_o for_o certain_a i_o be_o that_o as_o he_o be_v god_n or_o the_o divine_a be_v in_o he_o he_o can_v not_o be_v subdue_v so_o that_o it_o be_v very_o clear_a that_o it_o be_v the_o fleshly_a appearance_n that_o must_v needs_o come_v to_o nothing_o as_o well_o as_o the_o fleshly_a form_n in_o other_o creature_n and_o so_o christ_n do_v cease_v to_o live_v in_o the_o flesh_n that_o he_o may_v more_o transcendent_o live_v in_o the_o spirit_n and_o so_o he_o lay_v down_o his_o humanity_n to_o live_v in_o the_o divinity_n and_o so_o it_o be_v true_a what_o the_o apostle_n say_v in_o the_o 20._o v._n that_o as_o christ_n be_v rise_v from_o the_o dead_a and_o be_v become_v the_o first_o fruit_n of_o they_o that_o sleep_n and_o be_v dead_a in_o he_o so_o such_o as_o be_v dead_a in_o he_o shall_v sure_o rise_v that_o be_v they_o shall_v as_o sure_o rise_v to_o a_o spiritual_a condition_n as_o they_o have_v be_v spiritual_o dead_a in_o he_o and_o so_o he_o go_v on_o in_o the_o 22._o verse_n as_o in_o adam_n all_o die_v so_o in_o christ_n shall_v all_o be_v make_v alive_a here_o be_v still_o the_o comparison_n betwixt_o the_o natural_a and_o the_o spiritual_a that_o be_v as_o sure_a as_o the_o fleshly_a adam_n and_o outward_a visible_a form_n die_v so_o it_o be_v as_o certain_a they_o that_o be_v in_o christ_n or_o the_o spititual_a man_n shall_v be_v make_v alive_a and_o quicken_v and_o god_n shall_v rise_v and_o appear_v in_o more_o power_n and_o glory_n in_o that_o life_n of_o the_o spirit_n then_o ever_o he_o do_v in_o the_o fleshly_a form_n or_o shape_n but_o to_o go_v on_o the_o first_o fruit_n be_v christ_n and_o then_o they_o that_o be_v christ_n at_o his_o come_n which_o be_v thus_o that_o as_o christ_n herein_o be_v the_o first_o fruit_n of_o they_o that_o do_v live_v in_o the_o spirit_n as_o he_o say_v a_o little_a while_n and_o you_o shall_v see_v i_o and_o a_o little_a while_n and_o you_o shall_v not_o see_v i_o because_o i_o go_v to_o the_o father_n that_o be_v he_o be_v to_o lay_v down_o the_o flesh_n to_o live_v in_o the_o divine_a and_o spiritual_a life_n in_o which_o he_o appear_v after_o his_o ascension_n and_o so_o be_v as_o good_a as_o his_o word_n and_o do_v come_v in_o spirit_n so_o it_o shall_v be_v as_o spiritual_o true_a that_o they_o shall_v partake_v of_o the_o same_o spiritual_a life_n and_o live_v in_o the_o same_o spiritual_a resurrection_n as_o he_o and_o live_v in_o the_o father_n as_o he_o do_v and_o therefore_o he_o comfort_v they_o and_o tell_v they_o i_o ascend_v to_o my_o father_n and_o your_o father_n to_o my_o god_n and_o your_o god_n but_o yet_o in_o the_o mean_a time_n till_o the_o son_n of_o man_n and_o all_o fleshly_a form_n be_v subdue_v to_o the_o father_n till_o man_n be_v bring_v to_o live_v in_o the_o father_n and_o to_o live_v in_o a_o spiritual_a life_n till_o than_o christ_n must_v reign_v till_o than_o there_o must_v be_v outward_a form_n of_o christ_n death_n and_o there_o must_v be_v manifestation_n of_o god_n in_o flesh_n and_o outward_a ordinance_n but_o when_o these_o be_v subdue_v than_o man_n must_v rise_v or_o rather_o god_n will_v appear_v to_o be_v that_o spiritual_o which_o they_o before_o enjoy_v only_o in_o a_o outward_a manner_n as_o be_v argue_v by_o the_o apostle_n in_o the_o 25._o verse_n and_o the_o last_o enemy_n be_v death_n and_o certain_a it_o be_v this_o death_n must_v be_v destroy_v and_o the_o dead_a must_v rise_v or_o else_o death_n can_v be_v destroy_v now_o this_o must_v needs_o be_v a_o little_a open_v that_o so_o we_o may_v see_v what_o the_o resurrection_n be_v for_o certain_o the_o dead_a must_v arise_v or_o else_o christ_n can_v be_v rise_v for_o the_o open_n of_o which_o death_n we_o shall_v take_v the_o same_o method_n as_o the_o apostle_n do_v here_o to_o compare_v the_o natural_a with_o the_o spiritual_a than_o we_o say_v a_o man_n be_v dead_a when_o a_o man_n be_v void_a of_o all_o visible_a sense_n and_o motion_n when_o he_o cease_v to_o act_v or_o move_v when_o the_o life_n be_v depart_v when_o the_o life_n be_v depart_v when_o the_o be_v cease_v to_o live_v in_o the_o flesh_n that_o he_o can_v move_v to_o any_o outward_a or_o natural_a act_n and_o so_o a_o man_n be_v spiritual_o dead_a or_o dead_a in_o christ_n when_o a_o man_n cease_v to_o be_v or_o act_v any_o thing_n in_o the_o thing_n of_o god_n but_o be_v move_v and_o act_v as_o god_n be_v in_o he_o when_o there_o be_v nothing_o of_o the_o self-being_a appear_v in_o a_o word_n when_o to_o the_o world_n he_o appear_v to_o act_v nothing_o do_v nothing_o in_o a_o outward_a and_o formal_a way_n so_o that_o man_n think_v there_o be_v no_o spiritual_a life_n in_o he_o then_o do_v he_o die_v in_o the_o lord_n when_o he_o whole_o resign_v up_o all_o his_o grace_n ability_n knowledge_n of_o god_n into_o god_n and_o know_v not_o what_o he_o do_v or_o be_v or_o shall_v know_v cease_v from_o his_o own_o reaching_n forth_o after_o god_n live_v and_o be_v to_o any_o self-enjoyment_n or_o expectation_n of_o any_o future_a felicity_n life_n or_o comfort_n out_o of_o god_n for_o it_o be_v certain_a so_o long_o as_o the_o creature_n think_v that_o he_o must_v act_v or_o do_v something_o to_o attain_v salvation_n or_o be_v any_o thing_n distinct_a from_o god_n so_o long_o he_o be_v alive_a without_o god_n life_n and_o so_o must_v needs_o be_v miserable_a and_o therefore_o the_o apostle_n say_v if_o in_o this_o life_n our_o hope_n be_v we_o be_v most_o miserable_a which_o life_n be_v not_o to_o be_v understand_v of_o the_o fleshly_a be_v but_o in_o this_o life_n that_o be_v if_o our_o happiness_n comfort_n do_v depend_v upon_o our_o own_o self-actings_a and_o on_o our_o own_o be_v any_o thing_n be_v we_o most_o miserable_a but_o our_o hope_n be_v that_o all_o our_o felicity_n and_o comfort_n be_v terminate_v and_o centre_v in_o god_n only_o and_o so_o christ_n spiritual_o in_o we_o be_v the_o hope_n of_o glory_n which_o be_v a_o mystery_n and_o so_o be_v dead_a in_o christ_n
be_v cast_v into_o their_o lake_n and_o there_o be_v reserve_v to_o the_o great_a judgement_n day_n of_o the_o lord_n within_o we_o when_o he_o shall_v sit_v as_o a_o refiner_n in_o our_o spirit_n then_o shall_v the_o chaff_n be_v burn_v up_o &_o consume_v by_o the_o brightness_n and_o fire_n of_o these_o angelical_a appearance_n of_o god_n &_o this_o be_v a_o angel_n of_o god_n comfort_v i_o against_o all_o the_o aspersion_n of_o heresy_n &_o blasphemy_n that_o the_o people_n of_o god_n lie_v under_o at_o this_o day_n and_o so_o you_o see_v what_o i_o think_v of_o the_o angel_n and_o what_o they_o be_v and_o thus_o have_v i_o do_v with_o that_o which_o i_o call_v the_o light_a side_n of_o god_n i_o come_v now_o to_o the_o dark_a and_o shall_v begin_v with_o that_o first_o which_o be_v call_v devil_n concern_v the_o devil_n i_o see_v that_o which_o we_o call_v the_o devil_n be_v also_o in_o man_n and_o yet_o i_o can_v apprehend_v he_o to_o be_v a_o creature_n as_o man_n general_o do_v for_o than_o i_o must_v give_v he_o a_o be_v and_o there_o be_v nothing_o have_v a_o be_v but_o god_n that_o be_v formal_o and_o proper_o yet_o as_o man_n speak_v though_o improper_o there_o be_v such_o a_o thing_n as_o we_o call_v devil_n which_o i_o conceive_v to_o be_v nothing_o but_o the_o fleshly_a be_v or_o as_o man_n common_o speak_v the_o corruption_n of_o nature_n or_o as_o the_o scripture_n call_v it_o the_o old_a man_n and_o this_o also_o move_v and_o act_n in_o all_o those_o thing_n which_o we_o call_v sinful_a so_o that_o so_o far_o as_o a_o man_n live_v in_o a_o sinful_a be_v so_o far_o the_o devil_n in_o he_o and_o therefore_o when_o mary_n magdelen_n have_v 7_o devil_n cast_v out_o of_o she_o it_o give_v i_o to_o conceive_v that_o every_o sin_n be_v a_o devil_n and_o so_o far_o as_o a_o man_n be_v lead_v aside_o of_o his_o own_o lust_n so_o far_o he_o be_v lead_v by_o the_o devil_n and_o therefore_o he_o be_v call_v satan_n tempter_n and_o deceiver_n with_o divers_a other_o expression_n and_o hence_o it_o be_v that_o whatsoever_o be_v hateful_a or_o hurtful_a to_o man_n we_o use_v to_o say_v the_o devil_n be_v in_o it_o and_o so_o every_o thing_n that_o do_v hinder_v or_o darken_v our_o spiritual_a comfort_n and_o peace_n that_o be_v a_o devil_n in_o we_o god_n be_v light_a and_o in_o he_o there_o be_v no_o darkness_n and_o it_o be_v as_o true_a the_o devil_n be_v darkness_n and_o in_o he_o there_o be_v no_o light_n at_o all_o and_o so_o far_o as_o yny_v man_n be_v in_o that_o darkness_n so_o far_o he_o be_v in_o the_o devil_n so_o much_o the_o near_o he_o come_v to_o he_o and_o therefore_o it_o be_v say_v you_o be_v of_o your_o father_n the_o devil_n and_o his_o work_n you_o do_v god_n be_v the_o way_n truth_n and_o life_n and_o the_o devil_n be_v falsehood_n his_o way_n tend_v to_o darkness_n and_o end_n in_o death_n and_o destruction_n this_o be_v the_o deciever_n that_o will_v persuade_v we_o of_o a_o happiness_n of_o our_o own_o and_o a_o glory_n out_o of_o god_n he_o be_v that_o mystery_n of_o iniquity_n that_o man_n of_o sin_n who_o the_o lord_n be_v continual_o destroy_v and_o for_o who_o destruction_n god_n be_v mane_v in_o our_o flesh_n and_o as_o the_o devil_n the_o deciever_n have_v lead_v we_o from_o god_n to_o live_v a_o life_n of_o our_o own_o so_o god_n in_o we_o be_v reduce_v we_o again_o to_o live_v in_o himself_o and_o so_o the_o spiritual_a seed_n be_v break_v the_o head_n and_o power_n of_o the_o carnal_a this_o devil_n be_v the_o spirit_n of_o envy_n malice_n cruelty_n ever_o seek_v to_o devour_v and_o rob_v we_o of_o that_o which_o be_v most_o precious_a to_o we_o man_n fear_v a_o devil_n without_o they_o and_o so_o fancy_v he_o to_o be_v terrible_a in_o their_o apprehension_n never_o consider_v that_o he_o be_v in_o they_o and_o therefore_o it_o be_v say_v the_o devil_n enter_v into_o judas_n not_o but_o that_o he_o be_v in_o he_o before_o but_o then_o be_v there_o a_o more_o than_o ordinary_a appearance_n of_o he_o and_o so_o he_o be_v that_o judas_n indeed_o which_o be_v ever_o betray_v the_o spiritual_a christ_n into_o the_o hand_n of_o self_n and_o

and_o flesh_n to_o have_v high_a thought_n of_o himself_o and_o seek_v to_o put_v out_o all_o that_o spiritual_a light_n and_o glory_n wherever_o it_o appear_v in_o the_o spirit_n of_o man_n so_o that_o however_o man_n ascribe_v a_o be_v and_o person_n a_o he_o to_o he_o yet_o there_o be_v nothing_o so_o neither_o will_v i_o call_v he_o any_o thing_n but_o as_o it_o be_v the_o language_n of_o man_n to_o express_v ourselves_o to_o one_o another_o about_o that_o which_o we_o call_v devil_n and_o so_o i_o shall_v leave_v the_o devil_n and_o speak_v something_o of_o sin_n because_o that_o be_v most_o like_o he_o be_v of_o the_o near_a kindred_n to_o he_o concern_v sinne._n for_o sin_n i_o can_v tell_v how_o to_o call_v it_o any_o thing_n because_o it_o be_v nothing_o i_o can_v give_v it_o a_o name_n because_o it_o be_v no_o substance_n or_o creature_n it_o be_v rather_o primitive_a then_o positive_a we_o call_v it_o and_o give_v it_o a_o be_v though_o indeed_o in_o itself_o it_o have_v none_o it_o be_v no_o act_n for_o than_o it_o be_v visible_a but_o sin_n be_v inward_a and_o spiritual_a as_o that_o be_v which_o we_o call_v grace_n and_o holiness_n it_o be_v therefore_o call_v spiritual_a wickedness_n it_o be_v rather_o the_o defect_n of_o grace_n and_o a_o deficiency_n in_o the_o creature_n than_o any_o act_n as_o visible_a to_o the_o outward_a view_n further_o sin_n as_o sin_n admit_v of_o no_o degree_n for_o that_o which_o we_o call_v a_o great_a sin_n be_v no_o more_o than_o that_o which_o we_o call_v the_o least_o but_o because_o we_o will_v not_o be_v think_v to_o lessen_v it_o while_o we_o speak_v of_o it_o we_o shall_v give_v you_o our_o thought_n of_o it_o in_o the_o language_n of_o scripture_n and_o therefore_o we_o see_v the_o apostle_n describe_v it_o to_o our_o hand_n where_o he_o say_v we_o have_v all_o sin_v and_o be_v deprive_v of_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n so_o hence_o i_o conclude_v that_o sin_n be_v a_o come_v short_a or_o a_o deprivation_n of_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n and_o so_o far_o as_o a_o man_n be_v short_a of_o that_o glory_n or_o do_v not_o live_v and_o act_v in_o that_o divine_a be_v so_o far_o he_o sin_n so_o far_o as_o he_o be_v in_o darkness_n and_o have_v this_o glory_n veil_v in_o he_o so_o far_o he_o be_v sinful_a in_o brief_a sin_n be_v a_o live_n out_o of_o the_o will_n of_o god_n for_o god_n be_v the_o supreme_a will_n and_o have_v order_v all_o thing_n and_o person_n to_o be_v in_o such_o and_o such_o a_o condition_n this_o self_n and_o carnal_a be_v will_v something_o of_o its_o own_o below_o god_n will_v and_o so_o prevaricate_v from_o that_o and_o ●ente●●_n in_o his_o own_o will_n and_o so_o sin_n hence_o it_o be_v that_o nation_n and_o particular_a person_n be_v grieve_v and_o discontent_v with_o

that_o they_o must_v receive_v evil_a from_o the_o hand_n of_o god_n as_o well_o as_o good_a and_o not_o know_v that_o all_o be_v in_o the_o order_n of_o the_o supreme_a will_n and_o so_o run_v to_o

when_o christ_n rise_v we_o shall_v be_v sure_a to_o rise_v with_o he_o so_o that_o there_o be_v a_o sweet_a truth_n in_o that_o scripture_n where_o it_o be_v say_v that_o the_o day_n of_o a_o man_n death_n be_v better_a than_o the_o day_n that_o a_o man_n be_v bear_v for_o better_a it_o be_v for_o a_o man_n to_o die_v spiritual_o then_o to_o live_v natural_o and_o so_o none_o of_o we_o live_v to_o himself_o or_o die_v to_o himself_o but_o whether_o we_o live_v or_o die_v all_o be_v in_o the_o lord_n and_o he_o be_v glorify_v in_o the_o death_n as_o well_o as_o in_o the_o life_n for_o our_o

other_o yet_o we_o need_v not_o fear_v for_o the_o life_n be_v hide_v with_o god_n in_o christ_n and_o when_o christ_n our_o life_n shall_v appear_v and_o so_o appear_v as_o to_o be_v our_o life_n and_o happiness_n then_o shall_v we_o appear_v glorious_a but_o it_o be_v in_o he_o when_o christ_n rise_v so_o spiritual_o and_o glorious_o to_o subdue_v and_o destroy_v the_o fleshly_a be_v which_o be_v the_o death_n and_o cause_n death_n for_o no_o soon_o do_v sin_n enter_v but_o death_n enter_v with_o it_o then_o do_v christ_n the_o spiritual_a be_v and_o life_n triumph_v and_o then_o be_v death_n swallow_v up_o of_o life_n and_o mortality_n of_o immortality_n that_o be_v flesh_n be_v swallow_v up_o of_o spirit_n and_o death_n the_o fleshly_a be_v be_v swallow_v up_o of_o life_n the_o

he_o that_o get_v the_o victory_n again_o as_o it_o be_v in_o the_o natural_a so_o it_o be_v in_o the_o spiritual_a this_o resurrection_n be_v set_v forth_o by_o the_o resemblance_n of_o the_o grain_n of_o corn_n and_o it_o hold_v out_o a_o lively_a resemblance_n of_o the_o spiritual_a life_n and_o death_n and_o of_o the_o spiritual_a resurrection_n of_o the_o natural_a for_o as_o the_o grain_n of_o corn_n die_v before_o it_o live_v and_o in_o this_o death_n there_o be_v life_n hide_v so_o in_o this_o spiritual_a death_n there_o be_v spiritual_a life_n though_o it_o be_v hide_v and_o lie_v bury_v in_o the_o grave_n of_o earthly_a and_o carnal_a apprehension_n as_o god_n give_v the_o one_o a_o body_n and_o be_v himself_o the_o substance_n and_o body_n and_o the_o life_n so_o do_v the_o spiritual_a body_n the_o inward_a and_o spiritual_a life_n which_o be_v god_n rise_v to_o more_o glory_n than_o ever_o he_o do_v appear_v in_o in_o the_o earthly_a and_o outward_a form_n and_o as_o the_o fleshly_a appearance_n die_v and_o cease_v and_z as_o in_o the_o death_n there_o be_v life_n so_o god_n when_o he_o cease_v to_o live_v in_o flesh_n he_o live_v and_o rise_v with_o much_o more_o glory_n in_o the_o spirit_n and_o yet_o it_o be_v true_a till_o the_o fleshly_a and_o outward_a form_n or_o formal_a be_v suffer_v the_o divine_a can_v reign_v and_o therefore_o in_o the_o midst_n of_o death_n there_o be_v life_n and_o god_n do_v but_o die_v in_o weakness_n to_o rise_v in_o power_n not_o that_o god_n be_v weak_a but_o he_o be_v bury_v and_o hide_v in_o the_o carnal_a sense_n and_o life_n to_o rise_v with_o more_o strong_a and_o glorious_a appearance_n of_o himself_o which_o be_v the_o spiritual_a resurrection_n which_o be_v further_o illustrate_v by_o the_o terrestrial_a body_n and_o the_o heavenly_a body_n which_o do_v but_o further_o confirm_v the_o spiritual_a rise_n of_o christ_n for_o though_o there_o be_v a_o glory_n in_o the_o terestriall_a and_o outward_a dispensation_n and_o manifestation_n of_o god_n in_o they_o so_o when_o god_n be_v please_v to_o unclothe_v himself_o and_o to_o let_v out_o himself_o in_o pure_a and_o heavenly_a dispensation_n when_o these_o come_v and_o appear_v and_o that_o god_n put_v on_o the_o heavenly_a clothing_n then_o be_v the_o corruptible_a swall_v up_o of_o the_o incorruptible_a for_o it_o be_v true_a that_o

spiritual_a and_o when_o the_o last_o trump_n shall_v blow_v that_o be_v when_o god_n shall_v glorious_o sound_v forth_o his_o one_o praise_n &_o nothing_o but_o spiritual_a power_n appear_v then_o shall_v the_o dead_a hear_v the_o voice_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n and_o live_v and_o the_o dark_a and_o carnal_a appearance_n of_o god_n shall_v give_v way_n to_o the_o more_o pure_a and_o

of_o which_o be_v sufficient_a to_o persuade_v i_o to_o be_v steadfast_a and_o to_o abound_v in_o the_o work_n of_o the_o lord_n know_v that_o though_o my_o labour_n be_v in_o vain_a as_o to_o self_n or_o flesh_n yet_o it_o be_v not_o in_o vain_a in_o the_o lord_n he_o be_v the_o end_n and_o sum_n of_o all_o thus_o have_v i_o as_o brief_o and_o plain_o as_o i_o can_v go_v over_o the_o substance_n of_o the_o whole_a chapter_n though_o much_o more_o may_v be_v speak_v be_v conscious_a to_o my_o own_o spirit_n that_o i_o have_v not_o hide_v or_o conceal_v any_o clause_n which_o may_v serve_v to_o speak_v for_o a_o carnal_a resurrection_n or_o for_o a_o rise_n of_o the_o body_n after_o its_o dissolution_n here_o in_o any_o visible_a form_n or_o shape_n but_o that_o as_o the_o light_n be_v in_o i_o so_o have_v i_o manifest_v it_o out_o to_o other_o and_o do_v only_o refer_v myself_o for_o trial_n to_o that_o light_n which_o manifest_v all_o thing_n leave_v other_o man_n to_o their_o own_o dark_a and_o carnal_a apprehension_n of_o a_o carnal_a resurrection_n and_o conclude_v that_o the_o resurrection_n be_v from_o the_o carnal_a to_o the_o fleshly_a christ_n from_o christ_n live_v in_o the_o flesh_n to_o his_o live_n in_o the_o spirit_n which_o be_v that_o i_o call_v the_o resurrection_n and_o if_o time_n and_o man_n patience_n will_v suffer_v i_o can_v easy_o prove_v that_o whatsoever_o christ_n as_o man_n be_v or_o do_v from_o his_o birth_n to_o his_o ascension_n in_o his_o life_n and_o death_n in_o the_o flesh_n they_o be_v but_o all_o type_n and_o shadow_n of_o what_o he_o will_v be_v and_o work_v in_o his_o glorious_a come_n in_o the_o spirit_n and_o so_o they_o be_v apply_v all_o along_o if_o man_n will_v let_v the_o scripture_n speak_v in_o the_o very_a letter_n but_o i_o let_v it_o pass_v at_o present_a and_o further_o to_o gratify_v man_n weakness_n i_o shall_v proceed_v to_o another_o scripture_n which_o be_v as_o carnal_o urge_v as_o the_o former_a to_o prove_v a_o carnal_a resurrection_n and_o that_o be_v in_o matthew_n concern_v christ_n reason_v with_o the_o sadducee_n they_o deny_v the_o resurrection_n and_o christ_n prove_v it_o to_o they_o by_o say_v that_o he_o be_v the_o god_n of_o the_o live_n and_o not_o of_o the_o dead_a and_o so_o that_o though_o abraham_n isaac_n and_o jacob_n be_v dead_a long_o ago_o yet_o they_o live_v but_o to_o open_v this_o scripture_n we_o must_v know_v what_o resurrection_n the_o sadducee_n deny_v and_o what_o resurrection_n christ_n prove_v i_o affirm_v that_o it_o be_v the_o spiritual_a resurrection_n which_o they_o deny_v and_o that_o appear_v plain_o by_o that_o in_o the_o 23_o of_o act_n 8._o where_o it_o be_v say_v that_o the_o sadducee_n deny_v the_o resurrection_n or_o angel_n or_o spirit_n but_o there_o be_v no_o mention_n of_o the_o resurrection_n of_o the_o body_n and_o so_o it_o be_v clear_a that_o christ_n argument_n to_o they_o be_v to_o prove_v a_o spiritual_a resurrection_n and_o so_o it_o hold_v a_o full_a proof_n of_o what_o we_o affirm_v and_o a_o f●ll_v answer_v to_o the_o sadducee_n for_o god_n be_v not_o the_o god_n of_o the_o dead_a but_o of_o the_o live_n not_o of_o flesh_n but_o of_o spirit_n and_o so_o abraham_n isaac_n and_o jacob._n they_o do_v real_o and_o spiritual_o live_v in_o god_n though_o they_o be_v dead_a in_o the_o flesh_n so_o that_o i_o conceive_v and_o it_o be_v clear_a to_o i_o that_o a_o spiritual_a and_o angelical_a appearance_n of_o god_n be_v that_o resurrection_n which_o be_v hold_v forth_o and_o which_o shall_v be_v and_o they_o be_v the_o sadducee_n that_o deny_v this_o spiritual_a resurrection_n another_o scripture_n which_o be_v allege_v to_o as_o little_a purpose_n be_v that_o in_o job_n
