the_o heavenly_a inheritance_n in_o his_o royal_a palace_n and_o holy_a temple_n our_o apostle_n express_v the_o like_a assurance_n 2_o tim._n 4.8_o henceforth_o there_o be_v lay_v up_o for_o i_o a_o crown_n of_o righteousness_n which_o the_o lord_n the_o righteous_a judge_n shall_v give_v i_o at_o that_o day_n holy_a job_n also_o express_v his_o assurance_n of_o future_a glory_n in_o his_o adverse_a state_n job_n 19.25_o 26_o 27._o i_o know_v that_o my_o redeemer_n live_v and_o that_o he_o shall_v stand_v at_o the_o latter_a day_n upon_o the_o earth_n and_o though_o after_o my_o skin_n worm_n destroy_v this_o body_n yet_o in_o my_o flesh_n shall_v i_o see_v god_n etc._n etc._n though_o all_o who_o have_v a_o faith_n of_o affiance_n do_v not_o attain_v to_o a_o faith_n of_o assurance_n yet_o it_o be_v attainable_a in_o a_o mortal_a state_n thus_o much_o by_o way_n of_o explication_n ii_o i_o shall_v present_v you_o with_o some_o inference_n from_o the_o word_n first_o i_o infer_v the_o prodigious_a folly_n of_o those_o who_o give_v their_o body_n the_o preference_n to_o their_o soul_n it_o be_v the_o part_n of_o a_o wise_a man_n to_o value_v thing_n in_o proportion_n to_o their_o worth_n and_o excellency_n but_o the_o generality_n of_o mankind_n show_v that_o their_o corporeal_a part_n have_v a_o great_a share_n of_o their_o esteem_n than_o their_o spiritual_a part_n they_o careful_o provide_v food_n and_o raiment_n for_o the_o former_a but_o never_o seek_v after_o the_o bread_n of_o life_n to_o feed_v and_o the_o robe_n of_o christ_n righteousness_n to_o array_v the_o latter_a they_o will_v labour_v hard_a to_o erect_v or_o purchase_v a_o comfortable_a habitation_n for_o their_o body_n but_o do_v not_o at_o all_o endeavour_n to_o secure_v a_o happy_a dwelling-place_n for_o their_o soul_n when_o they_o enter_v into_o a_o invisible_a world_n they_o will_v hazard_v the_o loss_n of_o their_o soul_n to_o secure_v their_o body_n from_o temporal_a evil_n or_o to_o procure_v those_o thing_n which_o will_v gratify_v the_o sensitive_a appetite_n what_o madness_n be_v it_o to_o prefer_v a_o clod_n of_o earth_n to_o a_o spirit_n be_v not_o that_o a_o foolish_a soul_n that_o value_v its_o sojourning-place_n more_o than_o itself_o and_o will_v expose_v itself_o to_o eternal_a ruin_n for_o the_o preservation_n of_o its_o earthly_a tabernacle_n what_o stupid_a fool_n be_v they_o who_o esteem_v their_o body_n which_o be_v continual_o advance_v towards_o and_o must_v speedy_o return_v to_o the_o dust_n more_o than_o their_o soul_n which_o shall_v survive_v they_o and_o live_v for_o evermore_o sure_o such_o person_n be_v as_o the_o horse_n or_o as_o the_o mule_n which_o have_v no_o understanding_n second_o i_o infer_v the_o folly_n of_o those_o who_o be_v proud_a of_o or_o glory_n in_o their_o corporeal_a strength_n or_o beauty_n as_o man_n be_v apt_a to_o boast_v of_o the_o exact_a form_n and_o strength_n of_o those_o house_n wherein_o their_o body_n dwell_v so_o likewise_o of_o the_o excellency_n of_o those_o body_n wherein_o their_o soul_n tabernacle_n but_o this_o will_v appear_v very_o foolish_a to_o we_o if_o we_o consider_v our_o frame_n and_o remember_v that_o we_o be_v dust_n our_o body_n be_v form_v of_o the_o same_o matter_n for_o kind_n that_o we_o trample_v under_o our_o foot_n and_o disdain_n to_o touch_v with_o our_o finger_n though_o our_o body_n be_v very_o robu_v yet_o they_o be_v but_o earthen_a vessel_n and_o will_v soon_o be_v break_v to_o piece_n in_o a_o very_a short_a time_n our_o body_n must_v be_v dissolve_v and_o then_o all_o their_o beauty_n and_o strength_n will_v vanish_v and_o become_v a_o prey_n to_o the_o king_n of_o terror_n three_o i_o infer_v the_o vanity_n of_o place_v our_o happiness_n in_o our_o live_a comfort_n our_o near_a and_o dear_a relation_n we_o be_v exceed_o prone_a to_o let_v out_o our_o affection_n immoderate_o towards_o they_o to_o give_v they_o too_o high_a a_o place_n too_o large_a a_o room_n in_o our_o heart_n to_o think_v ourselves_o happy_a in_o a_o husband_n wife_n or_o child_n not_o consider_v they_o be_v frail_a mortal_a creature_n they_o can_v be_v no_o long_o enjoy_v by_o we_o than_o while_o their_o soul_n continue_v in_o their_o body_n and_o those_o curious_a fabric_n which_o we_o behold_v with_o pleasure_n and_o delight_n keep_v their_o station_n do_v we_o serious_o consider_v what_o frail_a brittle_a house_n their_o soul_n inhabit_v how_o soon_o they_o may_v be_v demolish_v and_o in_o how_o short_a a_o time_n they_o shall_v be_v dislodge_v from_o they_o we_o shall_v see_v it_o high_o reasonable_a to_o moderate_v our_o affection_n towards_o they_o o_o let_v the_o everliving_a everlasting_a god_n be_v the_o darling_n of_o our_o soul_n and_o the_o sovereign_n of_o our_o affection_n four_o i_o infer_v how_o necessary_a it_o be_v for_o we_o all_o speedy_o to_o endeavour_v after_o a_o right_n and_o title_n to_o a_o heavenly_a habitation_n to_o confirm_v this_o assertion_n and_o to_o press_v you_o to_o this_o duty_n i_o shall_v offer_v these_o thing_n that_o follow_v to_o your_o consideration_n 1._o your_o soul_n be_v design_v to_o a_o perpetual_a residence_n in_o some_o habitation_n the_o father_n of_o spirit_n have_v resolve_v to_o preserve_v the_o be_v and_o life_n of_o your_o soul_n for_o evermore_o no_o period_n shall_v ever_o be_v put_v to_o their_o existence_n and_o therefore_o when_o they_o leave_v their_o present_a habitation_n they_o must_v enter_v into_o another_o there_o be_v but_o two_o receptacle_n of_o depart_a soul_n viz._n a_o heavenly_a paradise_n and_o a_o infernal_a lake_n when_o your_o immortal_a spirit_n be_v divorce_v from_o your_o body_n they_o must_v either_o ascend_v to_o the_o former_a or_o descend_v to_o the_o latter_a and_o how_o can_v you_o bear_v to_o think_v of_o dwell_v with_o consume_a fire_n and_o abide_v with_o everlasting_a burn_n 2._o your_o body_n shall_v enter_v into_o the_o same_o habitation_n when_o re-assumed_n by_o your_o soul_n into_o which_o your_o soul_n enter_v when_o divest_v of_o your_o body_n wherever_o your_o soul_n go_v after_o death_n there_o will_v your_o body_n be_v dispose_v after_o the_o resurrection_n if_o the_o noble_a inhabitant_n dwell_v in_o heaven_n the_o house_n that_o it_o dwell_v in_o upon_o earth_n when_o rebuilt_a shall_v be_v fix_v in_o that_o glorious_a region_n this_o earthly_a tabernacle_n shall_v become_v a_o celestial_a structure_n but_o if_o it_o be_v cast_v into_o hell_n the_o raise_a body_n must_v stand_v in_o that_o direful_a prison_n as_o a_o everlasting_a monument_n of_o divine_a wrath._n by_o make_v provision_n for_o your_o soul_n you_o will_v also_o secure_v the_o felicity_n of_o your_o body_n their_o true_a interest_n be_v inseparable_a 3._o how_o terrible_a will_v the_o agony_n of_o death_n be_v to_o we_o if_o we_o see_v ourselves_o destitute_a of_o a_o title_n to_o eternal_a life_n they_o who_o have_v disregard_v their_o future_a state_n when_o the_o evil_a day_n of_o death_n seem_v to_o be_v at_o a_o distance_n from_o they_o have_v have_v very_o awful_a and_o terrible_a thought_n about_o it_o when_o it_o have_v make_v sensible_a approach_n to_o they_o with_o what_o horror_n will_v your_o soul_n be_v seize_v when_o death_n sit_v upon_o your_o quiver_a lip_n if_o you_o apprehend_v that_o they_o shall_v be_v speedy_o expel_v your_o body_n and_o eternal_o exclude_v the_o heavenly_a building_n 4._o this_o life_n be_v the_o only_a time_n for_o secure_v a_o interest_n in_o this_o glorious_a habitation_n as_o the_o tree_n fall_v so_o it_o must_v eternal_o lie_v death_n will_v fix_v we_o in_o a_o unalterable_a and_o unchangeable_a state_n those_o spirit_n that_o be_v now_o in_o prison_n will_v find_v no_o place_n for_o repentance_n though_o they_o shall_v seek_v it_o with_o tear_n 5._o the_o time_n of_o our_o soul_n residence_n in_o our_o body_n be_v very_o uncertain_a person_n be_v very_o apt_a to_o defer_v this_o weighty_a and_o important_a business_n some_o put_v it_o off_o to_o old_a age_n other_o to_o a_o sickbed_n some_o think_v it_o will_v be_v time_n enough_o to_o seek_v after_o another_o habitation_n when_o the_o strength_n of_o their_o earthly_a tabernacle_n decay_v and_o they_o feel_v they_o shake_v and_o totter_v our_o life_n will_v be_v but_o short_a at_o long_a and_o how_o short_a they_o will_v be_v we_o know_v not_o some_o be_v cut_v off_o in_o the_o morning_n of_o their_o day_n other_o in_o their_o full_a strength_n we_o be_v not_o sure_a that_o age_n will_v snow_n upon_o our_o head_n before_o they_o be_v lay_v in_o the_o dust_n or_o that_o the_o structure_n of_o our_o
