and_o annihilate_v by_o death_n but_o something_o of_o their_o body_n remain_v undestroy_v there_o be_v nothing_o utter_o total_o and_o final_o destroy_v in_o a_o child_n of_o god_n by_o death_n but_o sin_n and_o misery_n the_o rot_v of_o the_o body_n in_o the_o grave_n be_v but_o as_o the_o rot_a of_o the_o corn_n in_o the_o earth_n as_o the_o apostle_n say_v 1_o cor._n 15.36_o the_o seed_n be_v cast_v into_o the_o earth_n and_o there_o it_o die_v and_o rot_v but_o be_v not_o utter_o extinct_a but_o rot_v in_o the_o ground_n that_o it_o may_v be_v quicken_v again_o so_o the_o body_n of_o the_o saint_n rot_v in_o their_o grave_n that_o they_o may_v be_v raise_v again_o and_o make_v like_a unto_o the_o glorious_a body_n of_o jesus_n christ._n and_o this_o be_v another_o reason_n why_o the_o death_n of_o a_o child_n of_o god_n be_v call_v a_o sleep_n because_o as_o a_o man_n asleep_o be_v not_o extinct_a no_o more_o be_v he_o in_o the_o grave_n there_o be_v a_o substance_n

it_o be_v true_a their_o body_n be_v not_o utter_o destroy_v but_o remain_v not_o by_o virtue_n of_o their_o union_n with_o christ_n but_o preserve_v by_o the_o almighty_a power_n of_o god_n as_o a_o
