death_n yet_o i_o shall_v sleep_v in_o the_o lord_n as_o when_o i_o go_v to_o sleep_v i_o hope_v to_o rise_v again_o so_o i_o trust_v when_o the_o resurrection_n shall_v come_v that_o my_o body_n

that_o be_v not_o as_o though_o they_o be_v what_o make_v abraham_n to_o trust_v in_o god_n that_o he_o will_v give_v he_o isaac_n again_o he_o consider_v if_o god_n can_v raise_v isaac_n from_o the_o

but_o st._n paul_n make_v it_o clear_a that_o it_o be_v not_o against_o nature_n that_o god_n shall_v raise_v the_o dead_a 1_o cor._n 15._o to_o speak_v a_o little_a of_o it_o and_o then_o to_o

that_o there_o shall_v be_v such_o excellent_a thing_n of_o so_o base_a a_o creature_n we_o see_v what_o art_n and_o nature_n can_v do_v if_o art_n and_o nature_n can_v do_v so_o great_a thing_n why_o

the_o ancient_n have_v much_o ado_n with_o the_o pagan_n about_o this_o point_n they_o handle_v it_o excellent_o as_o they_o be_v excellent_a in_o those_o point_n which_o they_o be_v force_v to_o by_o the_o adversary_n and_o indeed_o they_o be_v especial_o sound_a in_o those_o point_n i_o say_v they_o be_v excellent_a and_o large_a in_o the_o handle_n of_o this_o but_o i_o will_v not_o stand_v upon_o that_o it_o be_v a_o article_n of_o our_o creed_n i_o believe_v the_o resurrection_n of_o the_o body_n indeed_o he_o that_o believe_v the_o first_o article_n of_o the_o creed_n he_o will_v easy_o believe_v the_o last_o he_o that_o believe_v in_o god_n the_o father_n almighty_a maker_n of_o heaven_n and_o earth_n he_o will_v easy_o believe_v the_o resurrection_n of_o the_o body_n but_o i_o will_v rather_o come_v to_o show_v the_o use_n of_o it_o god_n will_v raise_v the_o dead_a therefore_o god_n manner_n of_o work_v be_v when_o there_o be_v no_o hope_n in_o extremity_n hope_n as_o i_o touch_v before_o he_o raise_v we_o but_o it_o be_v when_o we_o be_v dead_a he_o do_v his_o great_a work_n when_o there_o be_v least_o hope_n so_o it_o be_v in_o the_o resurrection_n out_o of_o trouble_n as_o in_o the_o resurrection_n of_o the_o body_n when_o there_o be_v no_o hope_n at_o all_o no_o ground_n in_o nature_n but_o it_o must_v be_v his_o power_n altogether_o that_o must_v do_v it_o than_o he_o fall_v to_o work_v to_o raise_v the_o dead_a therefore_o our_o faith_n must_v follow_v his_o work_n he_o raise_v the_o dead_a he_o faith_n justify_v a_o sinner_n but_o it_o be_v when_o he_o be_v further_a from_o grace_n a_o sinner_n despair_v of_o all_o mercy_n then_o he_o have_v the_o most_o need_n of_o justification_n he_o raise_v the_o dead_a but_o it_o be_v then_o when_o they_o be_v nothing_o but_o dust_n than_o it_o be_v time_n for_o he_o to_o work_v to_o raise_v the_o dead_a he_o restore_v but_o it_o be_v that_o which_o be_v lose_v god_n never_o forget_v his_o old_a work_n this_o be_v his_o old_a manner_n of_o work_v at_o the_o first_o &_o still_o every_o day_n he_o use_v it_o he_o make_v all_o of_o nothing_o order_n out_o of_o confusion_n light_v out_o of_o

as_o it_o be_v a_o death_n when_o it_o be_v as_o in_o that_o 37._o of_o ezekiel_n dry_a bone_n comfort_v yourselves_o god_n comfort_v the_o church_n there_o that_o he_o will_v raise_v the_o church_n

dead_a past_o all_o hope_n than_o he_o will_v quicken_v and_o raise_v it_o so_o that_o he_o will_v never_o forget_v this_o course_n till_o he_o have_v raise_v our_o dead_a body_n and_o then_o he_o will_v finish_v that_o manner_n of_o dispensation_n this_o be_v god_n manner_n of_o work_v we_o must_v answer_v it_o with_o our_o faith_n that_o be_v in_o the_o great_a dejection_n that_o can_v be_v to_o trust_v in_o god_n that_o raise_v the_o dead_a i'faith_o if_o it_o be_v true_a it_o will_v answer_v the_o ground_n of_o it_o but_o when_o it_o be_v carry_v to_o god_n it_o be_v carry_v to_o he_o that_o raise_v the_o dead_a therefore_o though_o it_o be_v desperate_a every_o way_n yet_o notwithstanding_o i_o hope_v above_o hope_n i_o hope_v in_o he_o who_o course_n be_v to_o raise_v the_o

we_o must_v feel_v ourselves_o dead_a before_o we_o can_v be_v raise_v by_o his_o grace_n what_o be_v the_o reason_n that_o a_o papist_n can_v be_v a_o good_a christian_a he_o oppose_v his_o own_o

to_o do_v this_o daily_a so_o when_o we_o misery_n be_v to_o comfort_v other_o we_o ought_v not_o only_o to_o comfort_v they_o but_o to_o search_v they_o as_o much_o as_o we_o can_v what_o sin_n be_v in_o they_o and_o what_o misery_n be_v upon_o they_o and_o acquaint_v they_o with_o their_o own_o estate_n that_o they_o be_v in_o as_o far_o as_o we_o can_v discern_v we_o may_v judge_v of_o they_o partly_o by_o ourselves_o for_o we_o must_v not_o prostitute_v comfort_n to_o person_n that_o be_v indispose_v till_o we_o see_v they_o fit_v god_n do_v comfort_n but_o it_o be_v the_o abject_a

therefore_o that_o we_o may_v comfort_v they_o to_o purpose_n we_o ought_v to_o show_v and_o discover_v to_o they_o what_o estate_n they_o be_v in_o that_o we_o may_v force_v they_o to_o comfort_n if_o they_o be_v not_o enemy_n to_o comfort_n and_o to_o their_o own_o soul_n he_o be_v a_o unwise_a physician_n that_o administer_v cordial_n before_o he_o give_v preparative_n to_o carry_v away_o the_o noisome_a humour_n they_o will_v do_v little_a good_a we_o ought_v therefore_o to_o prepare_v they_o this_o way_n if_o we_o intend_v to_o do_v they_o good_a and_o then_o when_o we_o see_v what_o need_n they_o stand_v in_o bring_v they_o to_o christ_n grace_n and_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n that_o be_v the_o best_a way_n to_o comfort_v they_o to_o bring_v they_o to_o see_v that_o god_n be_v their_o father_n when_o we_o discern_v some_o sign_n of_o grace_n in_o they_o for_o this_o be_v the_o main_a stop_n in_o all_o comfort_n that_o there_o be_v none_o but_o they_o shall_v find_v by_o experience_n they_o be_v ready_a to_o say_v you_o teach_v wondrous_a comfort_n that_o there_o be_v a_o inheritance_n in_o heaven_n that_o god_n have_v provide_v and_o on_o earth_n there_o be_v a_o issue_n of_o all_o for_o good_a and_o there_o be_v a_o presence_n of_o god_n in_o trouble_n this_o be_v true_a but_o how_o shall_v i_o know_v this_o belong_v to_o i_o this_o be_v the_o cavil_n of_o flesh_n and_o blood_n that_o turn_v the_o back_n to_o the_o most_o heavenly_a comfort_n that_o be_v the_o main_a and_o principal_a thing_n therefore_o in_o deal_v with_o other_o and_o with_o our_o own_o heart_n be_v to_o let_v they_o see_v that_o there_o be_v some_o sign_n and_o evidency_n that_o they_o be_v in_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n that_o they_o belong_v to_o god_n unless_o

long_o as_o man_n live_v in_o sinful_a course_n that_o they_o be_v not_o in_o the_o state_n of_o grace_n we_o can_v tell_v they_o no_o comfort_n except_o they_o will_v devise_v a_o new_a scripture_n a_o new_a bible_n if_o they_o do_v so_o they_o may_v have_v comfort_n but_o this_o word_n of_o god_n and_o god_n herein_o speak_v no_o comfort_n to_o person_n that_o live_v in_o sin_n and_o will_v

that_o think_v it_o it_o further_a from_o they_o therefore_o we_o shall_v acquaint_v they_o with_o the_o condition_n of_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n that_o god_n look_v to_o truth_n therefore_o
