It was not inough yf ye haue a respect eyther to hym or to vs. For vnlesse he hadde rysen agayne he shoulde not be taken for the sonne of God For whyche cause also whyle he hong vpō the crosse thei that saw hym vpbrayded hym and sayde he hath saued other but can not saue hym selfe Let hym now come downe from the crosse and we will beleue hym But now vprisyng from the dead to euerlasting continuaunce of life he hathe shewed a mutche greater power of hys godheade then if by commyng downe frō the crosse he had fled from the terrible paines of death For to dye is comō to all men but to louse the bondes of death and by his owne power to rise againe that properlye belongeth to Iesus Christe the onlye begotten sonne of God the only author of lyfe Moreouer it was necessarye that he should ryse again with glorie that the sayengs of Dauid and other prophetes of God myghte be fulfylled whych told before that neither hys body should se corruption nor hys soule be left in hel As for vs we neither had bene iustified nor had had anye hope left to ryse agayne had not he rysen agayne as Paule doth in diuerse places playnly shewe For if he had remayned in the prisō of death in graue and bene holden in corruption as al men besyde how could we haue hoped for saf ty by hym whych saued not himself It was mete therfore needefull for the part that he had in hād and for the chiefe staye

All theese thynges whych he should do present that is to saye if he were in company amōg vs he doth thē absent He ruleth maintayneth strengthneth defēdeth rebuketh punysheth correcteth and performeth all suche thynges as do become such a prince or rather God himself Al those thinges I saye performeth he which belong eyther to our neede or profit honour or cōmoditie Beside this Christ is not so all

vnderstanded Scholer So vse we commōlye to say of him that hath attayned to any hye degree or dignitie that he is ascended vp or aduaunced in to some hye roume some hye place or state because he●… hath chaunged hys forme●… case and is become of more honor thā the rest In sut●… case is Christ gon vp as h●… before came down He came downe from hiest honour to deepest dishonoure euen the dishonour and vyle state of a seruant and of the crosse ▪ And lykewyse afterwards he went vp from the depest dyshonoure to the hyest honoure euen that same honour whych he had before hys goyng vp into heauen yea aboue all heauens to the very roial throne of god muste needes be euident by moste iust reason that hys glory and maiestye myghte in comparison agreably answer to the proportiō of hys basenesse and reprochefull estate This doth Paul teach vs in hys wrytynge to the Philippians he became obedient euē vnto death yea the very death of the crosse Whearfore God bath both aduaunced hym to the hyest state of honour and also geuen hym a name aboue al names that at y ● name of Iesus eueri kne shold bow of al things in heauē earth hell But although he be alredy gone vp into heauē neuertheles bi his nature of godhead by his spirit he shal alwaies be presēt in his church euē to the end of the world Yet thys proueth not that he is presēt amōg vs in his body For his Godhead hath one propertye his māhead another Hys māhead was create his godhed vncreate His māhead is in sō●… one place of heauē his godhed is in such sort ech wher that it filleth both heauen ▪ earthe But to make thys poīt plainer

Paul doth saye But as touchynge the bodylye presente of Christe heare in earthe if it be lawfull to place in comparison great thinges wyth small Christes bodye is present to our faith as the sonne wh●… it is seen is presēt to the ey●… ▪ the bodie wherof
