twofold_a regard_n 1._o because_o of_o the_o inseparable_a union_n which_o be_v between_o christ_n and_o the_o church_n the_o first_o fruit_n be_v a_o part_n of_o the_o whole_a lump_n and_o of_o the_o

the_o branch_n of_o the_o same_o vine_n and_o therefore_o the_o life_n which_o be_v in_o christ_n the_o head_n be_v diffuse_v into_o the_o member_n the_o juice_n which_o be_v in_o the_o root_n flow_v

this_o 15._o chapter_n christ_n the_o second_o adam_n be_v call_v a_o quicken_a spirit_n because_o of_o that_o divine_a power_n which_o be_v in_o he_o to_o make_v alive_a both_o soul_n dead_a in_o

wrath_n appease_v and_o therefore_o that_o now_o there_o be_v nothing_o that_o shall_v hinder_v our_o resurrection_n to_o life_n and_o glory_n even_o as_o after_o the_o consecration_n of_o the_o first_o fruit_n the_o jew_n may_v lawful_o use_v their_o other_o store_n without_o impediment_n so_o christ_n have_v die_v and_o rise_v again_o for_o this_o very_a end_n to_o take_v out_o of_o the_o way_n whatsoever_o thing_n may_v hold_v we_o in_o death_n and_o destruction_n there_o be_v now_o nothing_o can_v have_v dominion_n over_o we_o to_o throw_v our_o soul_n to_o hell_n or_o detain_v our_o

1._o as_o he_o be_v head_n of_o the_o church_n 2._o as_o he_o be_v judge_v of_o the_o whole_a world_n the_o godly_a be_v raise_v by_o the_o power_n of_o christ_n as_o head_n of_o the_o church_n from_o who_o descend_v into_o his_o member_n that_o quicken_a power_n which_o give_v life_n unto_o the_o body_n of_o the_o saint_n join_v righteous_a soul_n unto_o glorious_a body_n in_o a_o blissful_a union_n for_o ever_o etc._n the_o wicked_a arise_v by_o the_o power_n of_o christ_n as_o he_o be_v judge_n of_o the_o world_n who_o have_v all_o power_n and_o judgement_n commit_v to_o he_o by_o his_o sovereign_a command_n bring_v together_o those_o damn_a soul_n unto_o their_o miserable_a body_n that_o so_o he_o may_v execute_v upon_o both_o to_o the_o full_a the_o judgement_n of_o eternal_a

but_o heavenly_a where_o we_o shall_v have_v a_o more_o endure_a substance_n than_o all_o the_o treasure_n of_o this_o world_n thus_o much_o of_o the_o first_o point_n from_o the_o 19_o verse_n i_o come_v unto_o the_o next_o word_n wherein_o the_o apostle_n confute_v the_o former_a absurdity_n show_v that_o godly_a christian_n be_v not_o to_o be_v account_v more_o miserable_a than_o all_o other_o forasmuch_o as_o their_o hope_n in_o christ_n be_v for_o the_o life_n to_o come_v as_o well_o as_o this_o life_n but_o now_o say_v he_o christ_n be_v rise_v yea_o may_v they_o say_v but_o what_o be_v that_o to_o we_o very_o much_o for_o he_o rise_v that_o we_o may_v rise_v he_o be_v become_v the_o first_o fruit_n of_o they_o that_o sleep_v he_n be_v the_o first_o that_o rise_v from_o the_o dead_a and_o be_v the_o cause_n to_o raise_v all_o other_o up_o the_o instruction_n that_o brief_o we_o learn_v from_o hence_o be_v this_o that_o the_o resurrection_n of_o christ_n be_v the_o cause_n of_o our_o resurrection_n to_o life_n and_o glory_n this_o the_o apostle_n intend_v when_o he_o say_v joint_o together_o christ_n be_v rise_v and_o become_v the_o first_o fruit_n of_o such_o as_o sleep_v i._n e._n be_v dead_a christ_n may_v be_v call_v the_o first_o fruit_n of_o they_o that_o rise_v from_o death_n in_o a_o double_a respect_n 1._o because_o christ_n be_v the_o first_o that_o rise_v from_o death_n which_o we_o must_v understand_v with_o some_o limitation_n for_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o other_o be_v raise_v from_o the_o dead_a before_o christ_n resurrection_n as_o we_o read_v of_o diverse_a in_o the_o old_a and_o new_a testament_n but_o here_o be_v the_o difference_n between_o they_o and_o christ_n 1._o they_o rose_z by_o the_o power_n of_o christ_n christ_n by_o his_o own_o power_n he_o have_v power_n as_o to_o lay_v down_o so_o to_o take_v it_o to_o himself_o again_o be_v god_n as_o well_o as_o man_n of_o himself_o he_o be_v able_a to_o quicken_v his_o own_o body_n so_o can_v not_o they_o 2._o christ_n rose_n but_o die_v no_o more_o the_o other_o rose_n unto_o life_n but_o die_v again_o as_o lazarus_n etc._n etc._n who_o taste_v twice_o of_o temporal_a death_n so_o then_o christ_n be_v the_o first_o of_o all_o the_o dead_a that_o raise_v himself_o unto_o a_o everlasting_a life_n 2._o because_o christ_n be_v the_o cause_n why_o all_o man_n else_o rise_v from_o the_o dead_a this_o be_v chief_o intend_v by_o the_o apostle_n when_o he_o say_v christ_n be_v the_o first_o fruit_n of_o they_o that_o sleep_n the_o first_o fruit_n be_v by_o the_o law_n deut._n 26._o 1._o &_o seq_n to_o be_v offer_v unto_o the_o lord_n before_o such_o time_n as_o the_o jew_n may_v eat_v of_o the_o rest_n of_o their_o harvest_n by_o that_o oblation_n the_o whole_a harvest_n be_v sanctify_v unto_o their_o lawful_a use_n as_o it_o be_v levit._n 23._o 14._o and_o therefore_o the_o apostle_n say_v rom._n 1._o 16._o if_o the_o first_o fruit_n be_v holy_a so_o be_v the_o whole_a lump_n namely_o after_o the_o consecrate_v of_o the_o first_o fruit_n all_o the_o remainder_n may_v lawful_o be_v use_v in_o a_o good_a and_o holy_a manner_n from_o this_o custom_n the_o apostle_n draw_v the_o metaphor_n call_v christ_n the_o first_o fruit_n of_o the_o dead_a namely_o that_o as_o by_o they_o all_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o store_n be_v consecrate_v so_o in_o and_o by_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n rise_v out_o of_o his_o grave_n the_o body_n of_o all_o the_o elect_n shall_v receive_v this_o power_n and_o privilege_n to_o break_v asunder_o the_o band_n
