erred saying The Resurrection is past already 2 Tim. 2.18 and they must needs be such as took the Resurrection for some other thing than the raising of all men from the dead viz. in some mystical sense Others will allow of no figurative expressions and such if you tell them of a Resurrection may according to their Principles tell you that Christ is the only Resurrection because of what is said John 11.25 I am the Resurrection meaning causally c. But whilst we speak of the ra●sing or rebuilding of our bodies O the admirable power and wisdom of God that is able to build with such Materials some part whereof must be fetcht out of the bottom of the Sea other parts out of the bowells of living Creatures out of the entrails of Worms and Fishes and such like which have fed upon them Who but he that is omniscient could tell where to find that broken scattered and dispersed stuff wherewith the bodies of men shall be rebuilt or if they knew where it were who but he whose Arm is not to short for any purpose were able to come at it Where is that Artificer that can distinguish betwixt dust and dust the dust of one house and of another if the dust of twenty houses were mixed together and laid in one heap or who can build a house of meer dust I say who but the great God can do either of these and he will do both Neither is the condescension of God appearing in the Resurrection of his servants less admirable than are the demonstrations of his power and wisdom in that he sheweth himself mindful of his people in the lowest condition they can be in even when he hath brought them into the dust of death as the phrase is Psal 22.15 The peculiar respects which God beareth to them that fear him will be most conspicuous at the Resurrection for then the houses of his servants shall overtop the houses of all wicked men the Mountain of their houses shall be established in the top of the Mountains and shall be exalted above the Hills of others alluding to Isa 2.2 For the upright shall have dominion over the wicked in the morning Psal 49.14 I can but think how the Souls of just men when they have put off these earthly Tabernacles will long to be possessed of their new houses Rom. 8.23 We our selves groan waiting for the adoption to wit the redemption of our body And well then may we long for that time considering that he who hath called the bodies of his Saints the Temples of the Holy Ghost 1 Cor. 6.19 will be much more graciously and visibly present in those Temples so refined as they will be at the Resurrection than in those we carry about with us so defiled and polluted as they are at the present It is the least thing I can say of the Resurrection of the just that when that time shall come all their defects and deformities of body shall then be done away for ever and yet what would not some men give to be cured of one bodily defect be it blindness or deafness or lameness and to be restored to any limb or sense they want but for that little time they have to live But alas how many defects and deformities are there which no Art of man can cure To such as labour under any of them I would say Have patience but a little while get part in the first Resurrection that you may have interest in the second viz. the Resurrection of life lay up a good Foundation for the time to come that thou mayest be recompensed at the Resurrection of the just Luke 14.14 Make shift for the present for a short season a sorry house may serve the turn when death and the Grave which must swallow thee down for a while shall deliver thee up again as the Whale did Jonah thy next house shall be a Pallace that is the body which thou shalt receive at the Resurrection or which thou shalt rise with shall be as free from defects and deformities as is the glorious body of Christ himself I cannot sufficiently admire the happiness of those persons who live under the strong and comfortable expectations of a better Resurrection Heb. 11.35 that is of a better condition after death than ever they had before it Lord fill my soul and the Souls of all thy children with that blessed expectation and do thou inable me and them to say with thy holy Apostle Paul and those whom he there joyneth with himself We know that if our earthly house of this Tabernacle were dissolved we have a building of God a house not made with hands eternal in the Heavens 2 Cor. 5.1 FINIS Books to be sold by Thomas Parkhurst at the Golden Bible on London-Bridge MR.
