speak_v of_o the_o resurrection_n of_o the_o body_n i_o assert_v that_o there_o shall_v not_o only_o be_v raise_v the_o same_o specifical_a but_o the_o same_o numerical_a body_n not_o only_o the_o

but_o so_o much_o of_o the_o matter_n that_o make_v up_o the_o necessary_a constituent_a part_n of_o it_o now_o of_o what_o be_v necessary_a i_o think_v a_o ingenious_a modern_a give_v a_o very_a

and_o rise_v body_n and_o that_o be_v death_n be_v set_v forth_o by_o sleep_n which_o will_v be_v very_o improper_a if_o the_o very_a body_n that_o sleep_v in_o jesus_n and_o be_v dead_a shall_v not_o

and_o it_o be_v the_o instance_n give_v by_o the_o apostle_n of_o those_o that_o shall_v be_v alive_a at_o christ_n second_o come_v 51._o 1_o cor._n 15._o 51._o he_o tell_v we_o they_o shall_v not_o all_o sleep_n but_o they_o shall_v all_o be_v change_v now_o this_o change_n must_v refer_v to_o the_o quality_n of_o their_o body_n not_o to_o the_o substance_n of_o they_o we_o can_v imagine_v that_o by_o be_v change_v he_o mean_v that_o the_o whole_a substance_n of_o their_o body_n shall_v be_v annihilate_v and_o that_o they_o shall_v have_v quite_o new_a body_n form_v out_o of_o other_o

of_o the_o union_n will_v be_v death_n whereas_o the_o apostle_n assert_v all_o shall_v not_o die_v so_o that_o upon_o the_o whole_a i_o argue_v thus_o that_o if_o those_o person_n that_o be_v find_v alive_a at_o christ_n second_o come_v shall_v retain_v their_o old_a body_n only_o with_o new_a quality_n than_o those_o that_o be_v raise_v from_o the_o dead_a shall_v have_v the_o same_o body_n which_o be_v former_o join_v to_o their_o soul_n only_o with_o the_o addition_n of_o new_a quality_n for_o what_o reason_n can_v any_o man_n assign_v that_o the_o saint_n that_o shall_v be_v alive_a when_o christ_n shall_v come_v to_o judge_v the_o world_n shall_v be_v catch_v up_o into_o the_o air_n with_o their_o old_a body_n only_o ennoble_v and_o refine_a and_o those_o that_o die_v shall_v have_v body_n entire_o new_a and_o such_o as_o be_v never_o unite_v to_o their_o soul_n before_o such_o as_o never_o be_v the_o instrument_n either_o of_o sin_v or_o serve_v of_o god_n now_o the_o apostle_n do_v not_o bare_o tell_v we_o of_o the_o saint_n be_v bring_v with_o god_n our_o saviour_n at_o his_o appear_v and_o kingdom_n which_o imply_v their_o resurrection_n but_o he_o show_v that_o
