be_v john_n the_o baptist_n but_o suppose_v it_o be_v a_o parable_n and_o not_o a_o history_n yet_o parable_n do_v carry_v the_o resemblance_n of_o truth_n parable_n take_v their_o foundation_n from_o

that_o this_o beggar_n be_v say_v to_o be_v carry_v into_o abraham_n bosom_n i_o answer_v first_o it_o be_v more_o than_o probable_a that_o abraham_n bosom_n be_v heaven_n now_o abraham_n be_v in_o heaven_n why_o all_o his_o child_n be_v in_o heaven_n as_o child_n in_o a_o father_n bosom_n he_o be_v the_o father_n of_o the_o faithful_a that_o be_v the_o answer_n that_o gerrard_n give_v again_o it_o be_v say_v that_o they_o be_v carry_v by_o angel_n into_o abraham_n bosom_n therefore_o abraham_n bosom_n must_v be_v in_o heaven_n now_o certain_o the_o good_a angel_n carry_v a_o good_a soul_n into_o heaven_n and_o the_o wicked_a angel_n carry_v a_o damn_a soul_n into_o hell_n and_o thus_o you_o have_v two_o instance_n that_o immediate_o after_o death_n the_o soul_n of_o the_o elect_n go_v to_o heaven_n a_o three_o instance_n be_v in_o mat._n 22.31_o 32._o but_o as_o touch_v the_o resurrection_n of_o the_o dead_a have_v you_o not_o read_v that_o which_o be_v speak_v unto_o you_o by_o god_n say_v i_o be_o the_o god_n of_o abraham_n and_o the_o god_n of_o isaac_n and_o the_o god_n of_o jacob_n god_n be_v not_o the_o god_n of_o the_o dead_a but_o of_o the_o live_n argue_v from_o that_o instance_n that_o therefore_o abraham_n isaac_n and_o jacob_n be_v live_v at_o that_o time_n though_o not_o in_o their_o body_n but_o they_o be_v at_o that_o time_n live_v if_o you_o mark_v the_o reason_n the_o reason_n of_o that_o text_n be_v not_o to_o prove_v a_o resurrection_n of_o the_o body_n only_o which_o the_o saducee_v deny_v but_o also_o to_o prove_v the_o imortality_n of_o the_o soul_n the_o saducee_v deny_v spirit_n and_o angel_n too_o act_n 23.8_o for_o the_o saducee_v say_v that_o there_o be_v no_o resurrection_n neither_o angel_n nor_o spirit_n but_o the_o pharisee_n confess_v both_o christ_n do_v prove_v that_o there_o shall_v be_v a_o resurrection_n of_o the_o body_n and_o he_o likewise_o prove_v that_o the_o soul_n do_v not_o die_v when_o the_o body_n die_v indeed_o there_o be_v a_o quotation_n that_o i_o have_v read_v of_o a_o learned_a man_n that_o do_v make_v use_n of_o this_o instance_n gen._n 25.8_o then_o abraham_n give_v up_o the_o ghost_n and_o die_v in_o a_o good_a old_a age_n a_o old_a man_n and_o full_a of_o year_n and_o be_v gather_v to_o his_o people_n abraham_n be_v not_o gather_v to_o his_o father_n nor_o to_o be_v gather_v in_o the_o grave_n where_o his_o forefather_n be_v how_o can_v this_o be_v true_a that_o the_o scripture_n say_v abraham_n be_v gather_v unto_o his_o father_n yet_o he_o be_v not_o gather_v to_o his_o father_n in_o god_n therefore_o say_v divine_n it_o must_v be_v in_o his_o soul_n that_o abraham_n go_v to_o heaven_n as_o his_o godly_a forefather_n go_v that_o be_v the_o meaning_n of_o that_o phrase_n to_o be_v bind_v up_o in_o the_o bundle_n of_o life_n to_o go_v to_o heaven_n as_o their_o forefather_n do_v and_o thus_o much_o for_o particular_a instance_n the_o second_o way_n to_o prove_v that_o the_o soul_n of_o the_o elect_a man_n go_v to_o heaven_n immediate_o after_o death_n it_o be_v by_o general_a expression_n in_o scripture_n two_o general_a passage_n one_o be_v in_o

7.59_o and_o they_o stone_v stephen_n call_v upon_o god_n and_o say_v lord_n jesus_n receive_v my_o spirit_n it_o have_v be_v uncomfortable_a for_o he_o to_o have_v think_v that_o he_o shall_v have_v

upon_o and_o receive_v you_o to_o myself_o obs_n the_o observation_n be_v this_o that_o the_o main_a end_n of_o christ_n come_n again_o be_v for_o to_o raise_v the_o body_n of_o the_o elect_n and_o to_o receive_v they_o to_o himself_o not_o only_o to_o save_v the_o soul_n immediate_o after_o death_n but_o to_o raise_v the_o body_n also_o there_o be_v two_o queres_fw-la in_o the_o doctrinal_a part_n of_o this_o point_n touch_v the_o end_n of_o christ_n come_n which_o be_v to_o raise_v the_o body_n of_o the_o elect_n and_o to_o receive_v they_o to_o himself_o two_o thing_n in_o this_o first_o why_o jesus_n christ_n must_v raise_v the_o body_n of_o the_o elect_n and_o receive_v they_o to_o himself_o as_o well_o as_o the_o soul_n second_o when_o christ_n do_v receive_v the_o body_n to_o himself_o than_o what_o endowment_n do_v the_o body_n receive_v as_o now_o it_o have_v not_o first_o why_o must_v christ_n receive_v the_o body_n to_o himself_o as_o well_o as_o the_o soul_n there_o be_v four_o reason_n first_o because_o of_o the_o resurrection_n of_o his_o own_o body_n christ_n own_o body_n be_v raise_v from_o the_o dead_a and_o receive_v up_o into_o heaven_n and_o therefore_o the_o body_n of_o the_o elect_n must_v be_v there_o also_o where_o christ_n be_v there_o must_v his_o member_n be_v christ_n the_o head_n be_v raise_v from_o the_o dead_a and_o receive_v up_o into_o glory_n the_o apostle_n do_v ground_n this_o reason_n 1_o cor._n 15.12_o now_o if_o christ_n be_v preach_v that_o he_o rise_v from_o the_o dead_a etc._n etc._n as_o if_o he_o shall_v have_v say_v christ_n be_v rise_v from_o the_o dead_a do_v argue_v that_o our_o body_n must_v rise_v from_o the_o grave_a though_o they_o be_v dead_a there_o in_o 1_o cor._n 6.14_o and_o god_n have_v both_o raise_v up_o the_o lord_n and_o will_v also_o raise_v up_o we_o by_o his_o own_o power_n 1_o thess_n 4.14_o for_o if_o we_o believe_v that_o jesus_n die_v and_o rise_v again_o even_o so_o they_o also_o which_o sleep_n in_o jesus_n will_v god_n bring_v with_o he_o so_o that_o because_o jesus_n christ_n body_n be_v raise_v from_o the_o dead_a and_o receive_v up_o into_o heaven_n therefore_o our_o body_n must_v be_v raise_v up_o and_o receive_v into_o glory_n with_o he_o second_o the_o body_n of_o the_o elect_n must_v be_v raise_v why_o because_o of_o the_o inhabitation_n of_o the_o spirit_n the_o spirit_n do_v sanctify_v the_o body_n of_o the_o elect_n as_o well_o as_o the_o soul_n the_o very_a god_n of_o peace_n sanctify_v you_o throughont_n and_o i_o pray_v god_n that_o your_o soul_n spirit_n and_o body_n be_v keep_v blameless_a unto_o the_o come_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n 1_o cor._n 6.18_o 19_o 20._o flee_v fornication_n every_o sin_n that_o a_o man_n do_v be_v without_o the_o body_n but_o he_o that_o comit_v fornication_n sin_v against_o his_o own_o body_n what_o know_v you_o not_o that_o your_o body_n be_v the_o temple_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n which_o be_v in_o you_o which_o you_o have_v of_o god_n and_o you_o be_v not_o your_o own_o for_o you_o be_v buy_v with_o a_o price_n therefore_o glorify_v god_n in_o your_o body_n and_o in_o your_o spirit_n which_o be_v go_n now_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n have_v a_o gracious_a work_n in_o the_o body_n as_o well_o as_o the_o soul_n therefore_o the_o body_n must_v be_v raise_v up_o from_o the_o dead_a as_o well_o as_o the_o soul_n and_o this_o the_o scripture_n make_v a_o argument_n of_o in_o rom._n 8.11_o but_o if_o the_o spirit_n of_o he_o that_o raise_v up_o jesus_n from_o the_o dead_a dwell_v in_o you_o he_o that_o raise_v up_o christ_n from_o the_o dead_a shall_v also_o quicken_v your_o mortal_a body_n by_o his_o spirit_n that_o dwell_v in_o you_o so_o that_o spirit_n that_o raise_v up_o christ_n from_o the_o dead_a if_o that_o spirit_n dwell_v in_o you_o the_o grace_n of_o the_o spirit_n why_o that_o spirit_n shall_v quicken_v your_o mortal_a body_n therefore_o the_o body_n of_o the_o elect_n shall_v be_v raise_v from_o the_o dead_a and_o receive_v into_o glory_n with_o the_o soul_n three_o because_o the_o body_n have_v a_o condition_n and_o co-operation_n with_o the_o soul_n in_o all_o gracious_a work_n because_o if_o that_o the_o body_n shall_v be_v partner_n with_o the_o soul_n be_v receive_v unto_o jesus_n christ_n because_o the_o body_n do_v cooperate_v with_o the_o soul_n rom._n 8.13_o for_o if_o you_o live_v after_o the_o flesh_n you_o shall_v die_v but_o if_o you_o through_o the_o spirit_n do_v mortify_v the_o deed_n of_o the_o flesh_n you_o shall_v live_v now_o be_v that_o the_o godly_a do_v mortify_v the_o deed_n of_o the_o body_n and_o do_v expose_v their_o body_n to_o torture_n and_o torment_n for_o jesus_n christ_n now_o because_o the_o body_n of_o the_o elect_n do_v cooperate_v with_o the_o soul_n in_o good_a therefore_o the_o body_n shall_v be_v copartner_n with_o the_o soul_n in_o good_a also_o four_o it_o proceed_v from_o that_o near_a union_n which_o be_v in_o a_o believer_n and_o jesus_n christ_n christ_n be_v the_o head_n and_o believer_n be_v the_o member_n now_o the_o member_n must_v be_v raise_v and_o receive_v up_o to_o jesus_n christ_n to_o make_v his_o body_n a_o perfect_a body_n thus_o much_o for_o the_o reason_n why_o that_o jesus_n christ_n at_o his_o second_o come_v he_o shall_v raise_v and_o receive_v the_o body_n of_o the_o elect_a to_o himself_o as_o well_o as_o the_o soul_n the_o second_o quere_z be_v this_o i_o but_o what_o benefit_n be_v it_o to_o the_o body_n what_o endowment_n shall_v the_o body_n receive_v by_o this_o when_o christ_n come_v first_o in_o general_a i_o shall_v say_v this_o to_o you_o that_o the_o body_n shall_v receive_v more_o glorious_a endowment_n then_o ever_o it_o can_v be_v capable_a of_o to_o receive_v and_o enjoy_v here_o in_o this_o world_n it_o may_v be_v thy_o body_n be_v endow_v with_o a_o comely_a feature_n yet_o when_o christ_n come_v to_o

shall_v be_v the_o same_o body_n but_o thy_o body_n shall_v have_v more_o illustrious_a endowment_n than_o now_o it_o have_v and_o thus_o much_o only_o in_o the_o general_a now_o to_o come_v to_o particular_n i_o shall_v resolve_v this_o question_n in_o these_o six_o particular_n there_o be_v six_o glorious_a endowment_n that_o the_o body_n shall_v receive_v from_o jesus_n christ_n at_o his_o

when_o the_o text_n say_v that_o our_o chastisement_n be_v lay_v upon_o christ_n the_o meaning_n be_v christ_n suffer_v for_o sin_n by_o way_n of_o satisfaction_n he_o appease_v god_n wrath_n he_o

will_v punish_v for_o a_o sin_n take_v some_o reason_n for_o it_o first_o this_o because_o wicked_a man_n that_o be_v punish_v for_o sin_n will_v accuse_v god_n of_o partiality_n and_o in_o justice_n

will_v not_o be_v well_o regard_v second_o what_o be_v the_o reason_n that_o christ_n must_v have_v his_o body_n go_v up_o to_o heaven_n and_o not_o his_o soul_n as_o other_o man_n first_o christ_n in_o his_o bodily_a presence_n must_v go_v to_o heaven_n lest_o his_o disciple_n shall_v be_v take_v too_o much_o with_o his_o bodily_a presence_n and_o never_o look_v after_o the_o communication_n of_o his_o spirit_n therefore_o they_o ask_v christ_n lord_n when_o will_v thou_o restore_v the_o kingdom_n to_o israel_n they_o expect_v that_o christ_n will_v take_v away_o the_o roman_a emperor_n which_o be_v a_o heathen_a and_o expect_v that_o he_o will_v be_v king_n himself_o act_v 1.6_o when_o they_o therefore_o be_v come_v together_o they_o ask_v of_o he_o say_v lord_n will_v thou_o at_o this_o time_n restore_v again_o the_o kingdom_n to_o israel_n it_o be_v for_o this_o reason_n say_v interpreter_n because_o the_o disciple_n shall_v not_o dote_v on_o jesus_n christ_n as_o to_o look_v on_o he_o as_o a_o temporal_a king_n and_o look_v on_o he_o for_o a_o temporal_a kingdom_n so_o that_o be_v one_o reason_n why_o he_o will_v not_o leave_v his_o body_n with_o they_o but_o that_o they_o may_v look_v after_o the_o kingdom_n where_o he_o be_v therefore_o paul_n have_v a_o passage_n in_o 2_o cor._n 5.16_o wherefore_o henceforth_o know_v we_o no_o man_n after_o the_o flesh_n yea_o though_o we_o have_v know_v christ_n after_o the_o flesh_n yet_o now_o henceforth_o know_v we_o he_o no_o more_o as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v it_o may_v be_v those_o that_o live_v in_o christ_n time_n that_o know_v he_o according_a to_o the_o flesh_n as_o a_o lovely_a person_n but_o say_v paul_n we_o know_v he_o in_o a_o spiritual_a way_n to_o look_v after_o heaven_n by_o christ_n to_o look_v after_o salvation_n by_o christ_n second_o christ_n must_v be_v take_v up_o into_o heaven_n in_o his_o body_n to_o make_v a_o compensation_n and_o a_o recompense_n to_o himself_o for_o his_o suffering_n in_o his_o body_n to_o make_v a_o compensation_n to_o he_o for_o his_o bodily_a suffering_n he_o must_v go_v to_o heaven_n phil._n 2.8.9_o and_o be_v find_v in_o fashion_n as_o a_o man_n he_o humble_v himself_o and_o because_o obedient_a unto_o death_n even_o the_o death_n of_o the_o cross_n wherefore_o god_n also_o have_v high_o exalt_v he_o and_o give_v he_o a_o name_n which_o be_v above_o every_o name_n therefore_o god_n do_v exalt_v christ_n and_o raise_v he_o from_o the_o dead_a and_o bring_v he_o to_o heaven_n because_o he_o obey_v the_o death_n of_o the_o cross_n and_o

for_o suffer_v of_o death_n he_o be_v crown_v with_o glory_n and_o honour_n to_o translate_v he_o bodily_a into_o heaven_n that_o be_v a_o second_o argument_n three_o christ_n be_v take_v up_o bodily_a to_o heaven_n it_o be_v to_o manifest_v to_o the_o world_n that_o christ_n be_v god_n as_o well_o as_o man_n to_o manifest_v the_o god_n head_n of_o jesus_n christ_n therefore_o take_v up_o

the_o same_o also_o that_o ascend_v up_o far_o above_o all_o heaven_n that_o he_o may_v fill_v all_o thing_n there_o the_o apostle_n prove_v that_o christ_n go_v up_o to_o heaven_n it_o be_v a_o

that_o christ_n be_v in_o heaven_n before_o therefore_o must_v be_v god_n coequal_a and_o coeternall_a with_o god_n the_o father_n and_o thus_o you_o have_v the_o second_o point_n dispatch_v to_o you_o show_v the_o reason_n why_o jesus_n christ_n must_v go_v bodily_a into_o heaven_n the_o three_o point_n be_v i_o but_o what_o benefit_n and_o comfort_n
of_o christ_n be_v now_o in_o heaven_n it_o be_v enough_o than_o that_o opinion_n of_o transubstantiation_n be_v hereby_o confute_v christ_n body_n can_v be_v in_o heaven_n and_o on_o the_o earth_n both_o at_o one_o time_n four_o the_o ascension_n of_o christ_n it_o overthrow_v the_o opinion_n of_o the_o carpocraciani_n that_o hold_v that_o only_o his_o soul_n do_v go_v to_o heaven_n and_o his_o body_n perish_v as_o other_o and_o this_o can_v be_v for_o the_o disciple_n say_v that_o they_o see_v christ_n ascend_v and_o this_o must_v be_v his_o body_n for_o they_o can_v not_o see_v his_o

of_o the_o scripture_n there_o be_v three_o property_n of_o the_o room_n wherein_o christ_n be_v the_o passover_n a_o large_a upper_z and_o a_o furnish_v room_n he_o make_v this_o allegory_n of_o it_o

the_o elect_n than_o we_o be_v rather_o gainer_n than_o loser_n by_o the_o want_n of_o christ_n bodily_a presence_n we_o shall_v be_v less_o happy_a to_o have_v christ_n upon_o the_o earth_n than_o now_o christ_n be_v in_o heaven_n for_o we_o be_v great_a gainer_n by_o christ_n now_o be_v in_o heaven_n then_o if_o he_o be_v in_o person_n with_o we_o upon_o the_o earth_n divine_n illustrate_v this_o say_v they_o the_o body_n of_o the_o sun_n it_o be_v fix_v in_o the_o firmament_n and_o give_v light_a over_o all_o the_o world_n now_o shall_v the_o body_n of_o the_o sun_n be_v take_v from_o

we_o be_v great_a gainer_n by_o christ_n bodily_a absence_n and_o by_o christ_n go_v up_o to_o heaven_n then_o if_o he_o be_v in_o person_n here_o among_o we_o true_o as_o christ_n say_v in_o john_n

what_o the_o happiness_n of_o the_o elect_a of_o god_n be_v in_o their_o body_n as_o well_o as_o their_o soul_n now_o because_o this_o text_n be_v make_v use_n of_o to_o pervert_v many_o scripture_n i_o shall_v handle_v this_o practical_a question_n before_o i_o can_v come_v to_o handle_v the_o doctrine_n quest_n the_o question_n be_v this_o that_o see_v jesus_n christ_n do_v only_o promise_v that_o he_o will_v receive_v the_o elect_a unto_o himself_o at_o his_o come_n again_o then_o this_o question_n will_v be_v start_v than_o what_o become_v of_o all_o the_o godly_a immediate_o after_o death_n before_o christ_n come_n again_o to_o judgement_n therefore_o those_o that_o hold_v for_o the_o sleep_a of_o the_o soul_n they_o on_o this_o text_n do_v ground_n that_o there_o be_v no_o receive_n neither_o one_o or_o other_o the_o one_o to_o life_n the_o other_o to_o death_n the_o wicked_a be_v not_o torment_v then_o nor_o the_o godly_a glorify_v till_o then_o therefore_o it_o be_v needful_a that_o see_v christ_n do_v here_o speak_v of_o receive_v they_o unto_o himself_o not_o till_o his_o come_n than_o what_o become_v of_o the_o soul_n of_o dead_a man_n before_o the_o come_n of_o christ_n ans_fw-fr before_o i_o give_v you_o the_o answer_n take_v this_o distinction_n there_o be_v a_o twofold_a receive_n first_o there_o be_v a_o partial_a and_o incomplete_a receive_n and_o this_o be_v do_v immediate_o after_o death_n that_o when_o the_o soul_n do_v depart_v from_o the_o body_n the_o soul_n be_v receive_v by_o jesus_n christ_n in_o heaven_n and_o that_o be_v the_o reason_n of_o those_o speech_n in_o act_n 7._o there_o be_v a_o receive_v they_o before_o christ_n come_n and_o this_o be_v call_v a_o partial_a and_o incomplete_a reception_n it_o be_v only_o a_o receive_n of_o the_o spirit_n and_o not_o of_o the_o body_n second_o there_o be_v a_o total_a and_o complete_a reception_n both_o of_o the_o body_n and_o the_o soul_n into_o glory_n and_o it_o be_v this_o that_o the_o text_n here_o speak_v of_o though_o it_o be_v true_a there_o be_v not_o a_o total_a reception_n of_o a_o believer_n till_o christ_n come_v to_o judgement_n yet_o there_o be_v a_o partial_a reception_n i_o do_v not_o speak_v to_o those_o that_o say_v the_o soul_n be_v mortal_a and_o that_o it_o shall_v never_o live_v but_o to_o those_o that_o say_v the_o soul_n shall_v sleep_v and_o the_o soul_n do_v perish_v with_o the_o body_n until_o the_o resurrection_n now_o against_o these_o that_o plead_v for_o the_o sleep_a of_o the_o soul_n till_o christ_n come_n again_o take_v these_o four_o way_n how_o to_o strengthen_v you_o in_o this_o first_o there_o be_v pregnant_a instance_n in_o scripture_n that_o after_o the_o godly_a die_n their_o soul_n be_v receive_v into_o heaven_n before_o christ_n come_v second_o there_o be_v general_a expression_n in_o the_o scripture_n as_o well_o as_o particular_a instance_n to_o prove_v this_o three_o there_o be_v express_a passage_n in_o the_o scripture_n to_o confirm_v this_o four_o there_o be_v absurd_a inconsequence_n that_o will_v arise_v in_o case_n it_o shall_v be_v deny_v first_o there_o be_v pregnant_a instance_n or_o example_n in_o the_o scripture_n to_o prove_v that_o after_o death_n the_o soul_n be_v receive_v into_o heaven_n take_v three_o instance_n first_o that_o know_v text_n luke_n 23.43_o and_o jesus_n say_v unto_o he_o very_o i_o say_v unto_o thou_o to_o day_n thou_o shall_v be_v with_o i_o in_o paradise_n that_o day_n christ_n die_v that_o day_n christ_n go_v to_o heaven_n therefore_o that_o day_n the_o soul_n of_o that_o convert_a thief_n must_v go_v to_o heaven_n now_o belove_v there_o be_v two_o evasion_n that_o those_o who_o plead_v for_o the_o soul_n cessation_n for_o the_o soul_n sleep_v that_o they_o make_v to_o avoid_v this_o text_n and_o take_v off_o this_o instance_n first_o be_v by_o alter_v the_o comma_n or_o stop_v in_o the_o text_n and_o read_v it_o thus_o i_o say_v unto_o thou_o this_o day_n thou_o shall_v be_v with_o i_o in_o paradise_n that_o to_o day_n they_o do_v not_o refer_v it_o that_o the_o thief_n shall_v be_v in_o paradise_n peter_n martyr_n do_v give_v two_o answer_n to_o this_o evasion_n first_o say_v he_o it_o be_v not_o safe_a to_o alter_v a_o comma_n or_o stop_v in_o scripture_n for_o so_o you_o may_v pervert_v the_o scripture_n and_o make_v it_o speak_v what_o it_o never_o mean_v if_o man_n at_o their_o pleasure_n disagree_v from_o all_o copy_n alter_v comma_n in_o the_o translation_n another_o answer_n that_o it_o appear_v this_o can_v be_v the_o sense_n of_o it_o to_o refer_v to_o day_n to_o the_o time_n that_o christ_n speak_v and_o not_o to_o the_o time_n that_o the_o thief_n shall_v be_v in_o heaven_n for_o say_v gerrard_n mark_v the_o thief_n prayer_n in_o ver_fw-la 42._o and_o be_v say_v unto_o jesus_n lord_n remember_v i_o when_o thou_o come_v into_o thy_o kingdom_n mark_v there_o be_v the_o

to_o his_o prayer_n christ_n to_o day_n must_v answer_v the_o thief_n when_v that_o when_o christ_n come_v to_o heaven_n there_o to_o remember_v the_o thief_n and_o jesus_n say_v unto_o he_o very_o i_o say_v unto_o thou_o to_o day_n shall_v thou_o be_v with_o i_o in_o paradise_n three_o this_o day_n it_o be_v needless_a for_o christ_n to_o say_v to_o day_n to_o tell_v he_o the_o time_n when_o he_o speak_v he_o know_v christ_n speak_v to_o he_o then_o but_o to_o speak_v of_o the_o time_n when_o the_o thief_n shall_v be_v in_o heaven_n i_o say_v to_o thou_o this_o day_n thou_o shall_v be_v with_o i_o in_o heaven_n the_o second_o evasion_n be_v this_o it_o be_v true_a christ_n promise_v thou_o shall_v be_v with_o i_o in_o paradise_n but_o christ_n do_v not_o say_v thou_o shall_v be_v with_o i_o in_o heaven_n but_o with_o i_o in_o paradise_n there_o be_v three_o answer_n to_o give_v you_o to_o this_o evasion_n first_o that_o those_o that_o will_v not_o by_o paradise_n understand_v heaven_n by_o this_o text_n they_o then_o fall_v in_o with_o the_o papist_n either_o for_o purgatory_n or_o a_o limbus_n patrum_fw-la second_o take_v this_o answer_n that_o in_o other_o scripture_n when_o paradise_n be_v mention_v it_o be_v to_o be_v understand_v heaven_n and_o so_o the_o apostle_n do_v expound_v it_o 2_o cor._n 12.2.4_o i_o know_v a_o man_n in_o christ_n above_o fourteen_o

therefore_o of_o necessity_n when_o christ_n tell_v the_o thief_n to_o day_n shall_v thou_o be_v with_o i_o in_o paradise_n it_o must_v refer_v to_o the_o thief_n go_v to_o heaven_n at_o that_o day_n
