christ_n who_o we_o be_v whether_o we_o live_v or_o die_v ●_o i_o come_v now_o to_o a_o more_o particular_a consideration_n of_o this_o union_n which_o we_o have_v with_o christ_n in_o life_n and_o death_n and_o in_o respect_n whereof_o we_o be_v say_v here_o to_o die_v in_o the_o lord_n this_o union_n be_v so_o strange_a and_o wonderful_a that_o it_o can_v not_o be_v sufficient_o express_v by_o any_o one_o kind_n of_o union_n and_o therefore_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n in_o the_o scripture_n express_v it_o by_o many_o and_o those_o most_o diverse_a sort_n of_o union_n or_o conjunction_n to_o wit_n by_o the_o union_n of_o conformity_n tell_v we_o 18_o that_o we_o be_v praedestinate_v to_o be_v conform_v to_o the_o image_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n by_o the_o union_n of_o affection_n yea_o of_o most_o entire_a affection_n or_o friendship_n tell_v we_o that_o we_o be_v his_o friend_n brethren_n and_o spouse_n by_o the_o union_n of_o influence_n or_o real_a operation_n tell_v we_o that_o he_o be_v the_o vine_n and_o we_o be_v the_o branch_n that_o he_o be_v the_o head_n and_o we_o be_v his_o member_n whereby_o be_v signify_v that_o as_o the_o root_n of_o the_o vine_n by_o real_a influence_n do_v communicate_v life_n nowrishment_n and_o growth_n unto_o the_o branch_n and_o as_o the_o head_n by_o real_a influence_n or_o operation_n do_v communicate_v sense_n and_o motion_n unto_o the_o inferior_a member_n and_o do_v direct_v they_o in_o their_o action_n so_o christ_n by_o the_o seret_fw-la and_o most_o powerful_a influence_n of_o his_o spirit_n do_v communicate_v spiritual_a life_n sense_n motion_n and_o growth_n unto_o the_o member_n of_o his_o mystical_a body_n as_o also_o direct_v they_o in_o their_o action_n make_v they_o to_o walk_v circumspect_o and_o to_o work_v out_o their_o salvation_n with_o fear_n and_o tremble_a 2.12_o and_o because_o thing_n be_v unite_v or_o join_v together_o two_o way_n by_o the_o union_n of_o influence_n to_o wit_n either_o so_o that_o they_o concur_v together_o to_o make_v up_o one_o total_a or_o compose_a substance_n as_o for_o example_n the_o head_n and_o the_o member_n make_v up_o one_o total_a substance_n and_o so_o do_v the_o root_n and_o the_o branch_n which_o sort_n of_o union_n be_v call_v a_o formal_n substantial_a formalis_fw-la and_o physical_a union_n or_o else_o so_o that_o no_o total_a or_o compose_a thing_n be_v make_v up_o of_o they_o so_o the_o loadstone_n and_o the_o iron_n which_o it_o draw_v to_o itself_o be_v unite_v together_o which_o sort_n of_o union_n be_v call_v unio_fw-la effectiva_fw-la a_o union_n of_o mere_a influence_n or_o efficiency_n therefore_o our_o conjunction_n with_o christ_n effectiva_fw-la be_v express_v in_o scripture_n sometime_o by_o a_o formal_a and_o physical_a union_n as_o when_o he_o be_v call_v the_o vine_n and_o we_o the_o branch_n or_o when_o he_o be_v call_v the_o head_n and_o we_o the_o member_n of_o his_o body_n and_o sometime_o by_o the_o union_n of_o mere_a inftuence_n as_o when_o he_o say_v if_o i_o be_v lift_v up_o from_o the_o earth_n i_o will_v draw_v all_o man_n unto_o i_o and_o loe_o i_o be_o with_o you_o always_o 12.32_o even_o unto_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n 28.20_o now_o to_o apply_v all_o this_o to_o the_o present_a purpose_n the_o godly_a have_v all_o these_o kynde_n or_o sort_n of_o union_n with_o christ_n in_o death_n as_o well_o as_o in_o life_n and_o therefore_o they_o be_v most_o just_o say_v to_o die_v in_o the_o lord_n and_o first_o as_o for_o the_o union_n of_o conformity_n although_o the_o learned_a speak_v of_o that_o conformity_n with_o christ_n unto_o which_o we_o be_v praedestinate_v do_v only_o mention_v our_o conformity_n with_o he_o in_o grace_n and_o glory_n yet_o betwixt_o these_o two_o we_o may_v very_o well_o take_v in_o another_o part_n or_o degree_n of_o our_o conformity_n with_o christ_n to_o wit_n our_o conformity_n with_o he_o in_o our_o death_n which_o be_v the_o passage_n from_o grace_n to_o glory_n for_o as_o we_o resemble_v he_o by_o a_o holy_a life_n so_o also_o by_o a_o happy_a and_o victorious_a death_n this_o degree_n of_o conformity_n which_o the_o godly_a have_v with_o christ_n be_v ground_v chief_o upon_o three_o respect_n for_o first_o as_o christ_n die_v voluntary_o and_o by_o way_n of_o obedience_n to_o god_n his_o father_n commandment_n so_o the_o godly_a die_n humble_o submit_v themselves_o and_o all_o their_o desire_n unto_o god_n will_n for_o although_o when_o that_o bitter_a cup_n of_o deadly_a sickness_n be_v present_v to_o a_o godly_a man_n he_o sometime_o say_v with_o christ_n father_n if_o it_o be_v possible_a let_v this_o cup_n pass_v from_o i_o 26.39_o yet_o he_o ever_o do_v subjoyne_v this_o nevertheless_o not_o as_o i_o will_v but_o as_o thou_o will_v secondliie_o as_o christ_n die_v to_o destroy_v the_o work_n of_o the_o devil_n 8._o that_o be_v to_o take_v away_o our_o sin_n so_o the_o godly_a desire_n to_o die_v that_o they_o may_v be_v fir_v from_o their_o sin_n and_o not_o offend_v god_n any_o more_o 30._o say_v with_o samson_n let_v i_o die_v with_o these_o my_o

body_n into_o dust_n and_o to_o have_v they_o sure_o lay_v fast_o in_o his_o strong_a hold_n of_o the_o grave_n yet_o as_o potiphars_n wife_n catch_v only_o and_o keep_v the_o upper_a garment_n of_o

the_o apostle_n say_v that_o which_o be_v sow_v in_o corruption_n and_o weakness_n shall_v arise_v in_o incorruption_n in_o glory_n and_o in_o strength_n and_o 4._o this_o be_v do_v by_o the_o lord_n

copy_n nothing_o can_v be_v infallible_o conclude_v to_o prove_v that_o those_o who_o the_o lord_n shall_v find_v upon_o the_o earth_n at_o his_o second_o come_v shall_v not_o taste_v of_o death_n proper_o and_o true_o so_o call_v for_o whereas_o the_o apostle_n say_v we_o shall_v all_o sleep_n it_o may_v be_v very_o probable_o allege_v that_o by_o sleep_v he_o understandeth_v not_o death_n itself_o but_o the_o continuance_n of_o death_n or_o to_o use_v oecumen_n his_o phrase_n that_o the_o apostle_n be_v speak_v 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d of_o a_o long_a death_n or_o of_o a_o death_n continue_v for_o so_o long_a time_n that_o the_o dead_a body_n may_v be_v alter_v and_o dissolve_v into_o dust_n this_o may_v out_o of_o all_o question_n be_v that_o they_o who_o then_o shall_v be_v live_v shall_v not_o sleep_v for_o although_o they_o die_v yet_o their_o death_n shall_v not_o be_v as_o a_o sleep_n but_o rather_o a_o sudden_a slumber_n a_o wink_n or_o nod_n of_o one_o that_o will_v sleep_v nevertheless_a see_v many_o interpreter_n both_o ancient_a and_o modern_a do_v expound_v that_o speech_n of_o saynct_n paul_n otherways_o think_v that_o he_o be_v there_o speak_v of_o death_n itself_o and_o consequent_o that_o his_o speech_n import_v that_o some_o man_n and_o in_o special_a those_o who_o shall_v be_v live_v at_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n shall_v not_o undergo_v or_o suffer_v death_n therefore_o my_o second_o assertion_n be_v that_o the_o universality_n of_o death_n &_o resurrection_n be_v to_o be_v understand_v with_o a_o exemption_n of_o those_o who_o god_n himself_o for_o some_o special_a or_o extraordinary_a cause_n or_o respect_n have_v exeme_v from_o they_o this_o peter_n martyr_n observe_v speak_v of_o henoch_n and_o elias_n who_o for_o
