have_v overcome_v the_o the_o fear_n of_o death_n once_o what_o more_o be_v to_o be_v do_v what_o if_o they_o take_v away_o life_n they_o can_v take_v away_o that_o that_o be_v better_a than_o life_n the_o favour_n of_o god_n if_o we_o die_v in_o the_o lord_n we_o die_v in_o the_o favour_n of_o god_n which_o be_v better_o than_o life_n and_o we_o shall_v be_v find_v in_o the_o lord_n at_o the_o

threat_n whatsoever_o because_o death_n itself_o be_v swallow_v up_o in_o victory_n the_o worst_a the_o world_n can_v do_v pleasure_n be_v to_o take_v away_o this_o nature_n of_o we_o when_o they_o

we_o from_o all_o that_o be_v to_o be_v fear_v what_o be_v to_o be_v fear_v in_o the_o world_n every_o sickness_n every_o disgrace_n why_o death_n free_v we_o from_o all_o we_o do_v see_v every_o

awhile_o and_o death_n have_v no_o more_o power_n he_o that_o believe_v in_o i_o say_v christ_n he_o shall_v not_o see_v death_n but_o be_v pass_v from_o death_n to_o life_n he_o shall_v not_o see_v spiritual_a death_n but_o as_o he_o live_v in_o christ_n shall_v die_v in_o christ_n and_o rise_v again_o in_o christ_n he_o that_o have_v the_o life_n of_o grace_n begin_v shall_v have_v it_o consummate_v without_o interruption_n it_o be_v a_o point_n of_o wonderful_a comfort_n that_o death_n be_v so_o overcome_v that_o we_o be_v in_o heaven_n already_o and_o it_o be_v no_o hard_a speech_n but_o stand_v with_o the_o truth_n of_o other_o point_n for_o be_v not_o christ_n and_o we_o all_o one_o his_o body_n be_v there_o and_o be_v not_o he_o the_o head_n of_o his_o mystical_a body_n he_o

the_o best_a part_n of_o we_o we_o be_v represent_v in_o heaven_n for_o christ_n represent_v we_o there_o as_o the_o husband_n do_v the_o wife_n he_o have_v take_v up_o heaven_n for_o we_o christ_n can_v be_v divide_v heaven_n as_o austin_n say_v we_o sit_v in_o heavenly_a place_n already_o with_o christ_n and_o what_o a_o comfort_n be_v this_o that_o while_o we_o live_v we_o be_v in_o heaven_n and_o that_o death_n can_v hinder_v we_o from_o our_o resurrection_n which_o be_v the_o restore_n of_o all_o thing_n and_o therefore_o as_o the_o apostle_n say_v comfort_v one_o another_o with_o these_o thing_n these_o thing_n indeed_o have_v much_o comfort_n in_o they_o let_v we_o labour_v then_o to_o be_v comfortable_a this_o use_n the_o apostle_n make_v of_o it_o christ_n and_o fruitful_a

of_o fruitfulness_n to_o god_n for_o christ_n that_o we_o can_v think_v of_o death_n and_o sin_n the_o devil_n and_o all_o his_o malice_n and_o not_o be_v afraid_a yea_o think_v of_o they_o all_o with_o comfort_n that_o we_o be_v not_o only_o free_v from_o their_o tyranny_n but_o they_o be_v our_o friend_n christ_n have_v the_o key_n of_o hell_n and_o death_n a_o say_v take_v from_o the_o

suffer_v death_n to_o hurt_v his_o member_n or_o triumph_v always_o over_o they_o he_o will_v keep_v they_o in_o the_o grave_n our_o body_n be_v safe_a in_o the_o grave_n the_o dust_n be_v fit_v for_o

restore_v come_v and_o then_o we_o shall_v have_v a_o glorious_a soul_n and_o glorious_a body_n as_o the_o apostle_n say_v i_o beseech_v you_o think_v of_o these_o thing_n and_o get_v comfort_n against_o the_o evil_a day_n and_o to_o that_o end_n be_v sure_a to_o get_v into_o christ_n that_o we_o may_v be_v in_o christ_n live_v and_o die_v and_o be_v find_v in_o christ_n for_o what_o say_v the_o scripture_n bless_a be_v they_o that_o die_v in_o the_o lord_n lord_n it_o be_v a_o argument_n of_o blessedness_n to_o die_v for_o the_o lord_n but_o if_o it_o be_v not_o in_o the_o lord_n it_o
