out of an olde house readie to fall our bodies are no better then old clay cottages ready to drop downe our spirit is but vapour and fume our garments are corruption the worme and cancker our portion the earth the wombe that did conceiue vs and the earth the wombe that must receiue vs. If a skilfull Pilote shall foresee and foretell a storme shall not the Mariners hast all that they may towards the Hauen Christ our great Ship-maister hath forespoken many stormes in the sea of this world hie we therefore to heauen which is our hauen to the key-side of the kingdome of God to the land of the liuing the landing place of vs all In the ioynd Battell with the worldly enemie when our souldiers are strooken with gun shot on al sides and our fellowes fall before vs and behinde vs on the right hand and the left what a happie turne is it for the enemie to turne his backe to vs and betake him to his heeles and how would this quicken and hearten our Spirits but by the resurrection all the ranckes and Classeis of our enemies the deuill death condemnation turne vs their backe partes and flie away from vs. The day labourer is glad wheÌ„ the day is at an end for theÌ„ his rest and his reward beginneth the end of this life is the end of our labour and then our rest and reward without end beginneth Euerie man is glad at the departure of Winter and at the approach of Sommer this life of ours is but a troublesome Winter the life that is to come is the ioyfull Sommer season Hee is a brainelesse begger indeede that would not put off his rotten ragges to bee clad with royall robes our hides that couer vs are paltrie leather coates and as filthy as any Beggers weedes but in the other life wee shall bee cloathed with the white garment of Christes innocency who shall change the vile rayment of our bodies and shall decke them with all glorie and Maiestye sutable to his bodye The traueller that hath beene long in farre parts is a glad man when his busines are at an end that he may returne to his wife children and friendes our life is but a weariesome pilgrimage of fewe and euil daies by death and the resurrection wee haue a merrie meeting withall our kindred and deare friendes departed in the Lordes feare Hee that is out-lawed and banished for debt is made a merrie man by his calling home againe and the cancelling that debt wee liue heere debtors and banished men the Lord calleth vs home by the way of our death and throweth all our tickets of accounts into the sea Why therfore should not our hearts skip like Rammes within our bellyes for ioy If Dauid Paul Peter Iohn or any of these great men and deare Saints of God the fingers of Gods hand and sacred actuaries and pen-men of his Counsells might be sent downe from heauen vnto vs we wold bee glad to take the widest perambulation that is to looke anie of them on the face but in the resurrection we shall see all the glorious companie of the prophets the fellowship of the Apostles the noble armie of Martirs and his holy Angels yea Christ himselfe face to face wherefore we haue cause to wish welcome this our resurrection 5. I note also this aduantage in the resurrection that the faithfull haue it is their Bul-warke and wall of brasse against all temptations the Cittie of refuge amidst their persecutions in this world the soule of the inward man and blessed bee God which hath shewed vs this kindnesse in a strong Cittie This was armour of proofe to Iob against all the fierie Dartes of the diuell throwne against his patience Iob 19.25 whereby hee was more then Conqueror whilst his heart like Mount Sion which could not be remooued was fixed and fastened vpon the resurrection And this was as it were the latter gracious raine in the heate and drought of summer which refreshed the inheritance of God euen the soules of his Saints and as the sweete wood throwne into the waters of Marah that tooke away the bitternesse of it when in the daies of Antiochus they were vnder the Crosse and endured strange torments for they looked as the Spirit of God saith for a better resurrection Heb. 11 3â— Dauid by this Target that couered his heart could fight like a man and breake euerie Speare that was lift vp against him was in a readines for euerie enimie when he came in the gate of which he doubted not to make this godly boast saying Though I walke through the middest of the shaddow of death Psal 23.4 I will feare none euill for thou art with me thy rod thy staffe comfort me Phil. 1.21 This made Paule to say that it was life for him to die because it was lucre and gaine to him And the same Apostle being the mouth of the rest saith Therfore we faint not 2. Cor. 4.2 because we know though the outward man perish the inward man shal be renued dayly while we look not on the things that are seene but on the thinges that are not seene For that which the left hand of nature pulleth down the right hand of the creator shall builde vp againe The destruction of our earthly mansion is the construction of our heauenly habitation it is the same Apostles profession 2. Cor. 5 VVe know that when the earthly house of this tahernacle be destroved we shall haue a house not made with hands Iudg. 5.23 but eternal in the heauens For this cause curse ye Atheists as the Angel did Meroz because they goe not out with vs to fight in the Lords cause in the resurrection Sa. 1.21 As Dauid pronounced a curse on the mountaines of Gilboa that the clowdes might neuer drop vpoÌ„ those clods because there the shieldes of the mightye were cast downe so a cursle of all cursses and the full viall of the Lordes malidiction bee powred vppon the bodies and soules of all vnrepentant Atheistes whose hearts are soe hooped and bound about with infidelitie as they haue throwne downe this shield and buckler of all their expectation which is the resurrection But the blessing of the Lord be on the mountains of Armenia which gaue rest vnto the Arke and blessed bee all those Christian bodies and soules that rest vpon this and let this rest with them the Arke and the Cofer of his moste gracious promises And oh that Dauids fooles that say there is no God and so no resurrection who I feare are too rife in this Royall Cittie had the markes of knowledge set vppon them as the Leprous person had whose garments were split whose head and lippes were couered who was inioyned to proclaime as he passed by I am vncleane I am vncleane that all that see them might point at them and say There there Behold an Atheist behold an Atheist who are dead while they liue by the sentence

Sermon Act. 17.32 and suth are the mockers scoffers of whom saint Peter speaketh that this last age shuld bring foorth 2. Pet. 3.4 who shall haue in derision whatsoeuer Preachers out of Scriptures shall tell them of the resurrection the iudgement the worlds destruction Such was Simon Magus from whome came the sect of the Simonians Such were the Valentinians Carpocratians Cardonians Archotici Seuerians Basilidians Hierarchites with rablements of such Locusts Caterpillars of whome Augustine hath entreated Such were the Manichees that were mainely bent against this Article against whom saint Augustin worthyly disputeth such a one was Martion who was no faithfull friend to the resurrection as Tertullian in his fift Booke witnesseth But that euerie mouth may be stopped God gloryfied our faith strengthned we shall 1. by authorities of Scriptures 2. Sacred examples 3. Reasons irrefragable 4. The whole course of nature make good this proposition and winde it vp with the vse and applycation that it giueth and passe on to the rest 1. In both the instruments the olde and the new wee are compassed with cloudes of witnesses in the cause Isaiah 26.19 The Prophet Isaiah thus speaketh in it Thy dead men shal liue euen with my body shall they rise Awake and sing ye that dwell in dust for thy dew is as the dew of hearbes and the earth shal cast out the dead Liuely illustration heerof is in the dead bones Ezech. 37.10 which by Ezechiel his prophecying vpon them recouered their ioyntes Dan. 12.2 sinnewes flesh skinne life Daniel maketh this as cleere as the Sunne when as hee saith Many of them that sleepe in the dust of the earth shall awake some to euerlasting life and some to shame and perpetuall contempt Psal 17.16 Dauid is as plaine and open in the point As for me I will behold thy presence in righteousnes and when I wake vp after thy likenesse I shal be satisfied with it Job 19.25 But Iob striketh the naile to the head who amidst all his perturbations and passions maketh this profession I am sure that my redeemer liueth and hee shall stand the last on the earth And though after my skinne wormes destroy this bodye yet shall I see God in my flesh whome I my selfe shal see and mine eyes shall beholde and noue other for mee though my reines are consumed within mee There be more places in the olde Testament besides these but these are bones enough to choake them that are so impudent as to say that the olde Charter performeth no testimonie to this present article or if there bee any one to be found that it was vnknowne to the Fathers of those times I am driuen to deale with the proofes of the new Testament as Salomon did with the brasse in the Temple it was so much he would not weigh it they are so many we cannot stand vpon them 2. Examples of such as haue been raised from the dead doe nourish and fortifie our faith in the resurrection 1. Ki. 17.22 2. Kin. 4.35 Math. 9.25 Luke 7.15 Ioh. 11.44 Act. 9.40 Act. 20.10 as of the widdowes Sonne of Zarephath raised by Elijah of the Shunamites Sonne restored by Elisha of Iairus his Daughter the widdowes Sonne of the Citie of Naijm Lazarus that had lyen in his graue foure dayes brought from death to life againe by Christ Tabytha by Peter Eutichus by Paul 3. There are fundamentall reasons on the side of the resurrection that ought to sway with vs. 1. We draw the first from the Iustice of God which would that the bodie which hath partaked with the minde in the good or badde inclinations thereof should bee rewarded accordinglye which not being so perfourmed in this life it could neuer be serued in nuÌ„ber measure proportioÌ„ without the resurrection 2. We also dispute from his infinite goodnes which plenteously rewardeth the well dooer and his anger implacable worser as Chrisostome faith then a thousand helles which must make an end or rather no end with the workers of wickednes both which were quite voided were there a nullity of the resurrection 3. We further argue from the immutabilitie of his veritie his promises being signed by the finger of his spirit and sealed with the blood of the Lambe of honor glorie peace a crowne of immortalitie the fruition of the tree of life the sight of the glorious face of God the societie with his Angels and Saints the congregation of first borne new names white garments pleasures at the right hand of God abundance of ioyes for euermore all which must take place by the resurrection 4. Finally our dignitie and excellencie aboue all other creatures wherein we goe as much beyond them as the Moone doth the smaller Stars in glory challengeth the same which without the condition of the life to come should be many wayes inferiour vnto them For as the earth with the other elements are of longer standing then man so there be among Birdes Beastes Fishes that are of greater strength and longer life then he And whereas almost all creatures immediately after they bee producted can shift for themselues and haue eyther no or little neede others man-kinde onely must haue need of great atteÌ„dance assistance his time is shorter then of many of theÌ„ his miseries more then any of theÌ„ Therfore there must be an other life to recoÌ„pence it 4. But because it pleaseth the Philosophers to arraigne the Scriptures of follie and measure Diuinitie by the line of humane wisedome and cannot maintain this maxime of their schoole a priuatione ad habitum impossibilis regressus from the priuation to the habit the returne is impossible vnles they flatly disclaime the resurrection and the Atheist rubbeth his filthines against Gods holynes and scorneth whatsoeuer is spoken out of scriptures whereby our forecited testimonies examples reasons grounded vpon them concerne not their professioÌ„ we wil deale with them by their owne learning the order of nature which is euerie ones Schoolemaister and that shall stint the strife that is between vs make the question questionles There be many good resemblances in the workes of nature of the resurection in creatures of al kindes 1. Vegetatiue 2. Sensitiue 3. Rationall which albeit they bee not proofes so pregnant yet giue they good enforcement to the present argument 1. Out of things vegetatiue that haue but a growing life groweth verie good probabilitie of this sacred misterie 1. Cor. 15 â—6 As of Corne which is Pauls comparison and brought in by him to prooue the resurrection which first rotteth and dyeth in the ground and againe in the spring the renewing time of the season reuiueth and flourisheth yea the earth with all her stirpes hearbs plants yeild to the wrath wracke of the winter and decay die away and draw their breath againe at the returne of the times and put on their new habit and attire with which they statelie mantle and adorne the surface of the
