we_o be_v to_o understand_v the_o frail_a and_o mortal_a body_n of_o man_n which_o the_o apostle_n call_v a_o earthly_a house_n and_o a_o tabernacle_n because_o of_o its_o similitude_n to_o they_o it_o be_v compare_v to_o a_o house_n because_o it_o be_v the_o habitation_n of_o the_o soul_n that_o be_v lodge_v within_o it_o our_o body_n be_v only_o give_v we_o for_o the_o entertainment_n of_o

to_o a_o casket_n but_o the_o soul_n to_o a_o rich_a and_o precious_a jewel_n that_o be_v lodge_v within_o it_o it_o be_v call_v a_o earthly_a house_n because_o it_o be_v first_o frame_v out_o of_o the_o dust_n of_o the_o earth_n and_o must_v again_o return_v to_o its_o first_o principle_n and_o it_o be_v resemble_v to_o a_o tabernacle_n not_o only_o in_o conformity_n to_o the_o phrase_n and_o idiom_n of_o the_o jew_n and_o the_o pythagorean_n who_o do_v frequent_o call_v it_o so_o in_o their_o write_n but_o also_o because_o of_o its_o mutability_n &_o uncertainty_n it_o be_v the_o nature_n of_o a_o tabernacle_n to_o be_v remove_v from_o place_n to_o place_n and_o it_o be_v the_o nature_n and_o constitution_n of_o our_o body_n to_o be_v subject_a to_o change_n and_o at_o last_o dissolve_v and_o pull_v in_o piece_n by_o the_o house_n not_o make_v with_o hand_n eternal_a in_o the_o heaven_n we_o be_v to_o understand_v that_o state_n of_o dignity_n and_o immortality_n to_o which_o our_o body_n shall_v be_v advance_v in_o another_o world_n which_o be_v therefore_o call_v a_o building_n of_o god_n because_o it_o be_v of_o his_o order_n and_o prepare_v a_o house_n not_o make_v with_o hand_n because_o not_o subject_a to_o change_n and_o decay_n and_o it_o be_v call_v eternal_a in_o the_o heaven_n to_o denote_v the_o place_n and_o the_o perpetuity_n of_o it_o our_o immortal_a body_n shall_v be_v place_v in_o heaven_n and_o shall_v be_v no_o more_o subject_a to_o dissolution_n or_o corruption_n so_o that_o the_o sense_n of_o the_o word_n may_v be_v explain_v by_o this_o short_a paraphrase_n we_o christian_n do_v certain_o know_v that_o our_o body_n shall_v be_v dissolve_v into_o dust_n and_o ash_n and_o we_o do_v not_o in_o the_o least_o doubt_n but_o that_o after_o their_o dissolution_n they_o shall_v be_v raise_v up_o again_o to_o a_o state_n of_o immortality_n and_o incorruption_n and_o place_v in_o the_o heaven_n where_o they_o shall_v no_o more_o be_v subject_a to_o decay_n and_o alteration_n from_o the_o word_n thus_o explain_v i_o shall_v raise_v these_o follow_a observation_n 1._o that_o these_o body_n that_o we_o carry_v about_o we_o be_v only_o the_o outward_a shell_n or_o cover_v of_o some_o more_o excellent_a thing_n that_o be_v lodge_v within_o they_o 2._o that_o they_o shall_v be_v dissolve_v and_o pull_v in_o piece_n 3._o that_o after_o their_o dissolution_n they_o be_v not_o to_o remain_v eternal_o rot_v in_o the_o grave_n but_o shall_v be_v advance_v to_o a_o better_a state_n than_o they_o enjoy_v before_o to_o a_o state_n of_o immortality_n and_o eternal_a happiness_n 4._o that_o the_o place_n or_o state_n in_o which_o they_o shall_v be_v fix_v be_v the_o heaven_n above_o 5._o that_o we_o christian_n have_v the_o high_a reason_n and_o the_o strong_a argument_n to_o induce_v we_o to_o believe_v all_o this_o for_o we_o know_v and_o be_v assure_v that_o when_o the_o earthly_a house_n of_o this_o tabernacle_n be_v dissolve_v we_o have_v a_o building_n of_o god_n a_o house_n not_o make_v with_o hand_n eternal_a in_o the_o heaven_n 1._o i_o bgin_v with_o the_o first_o particular_a that_o our_o body_n be_v only_o the_o outward_a shell_n or_o cover_v of_o some_o more_o excellent_a thing_n that_o be_v lodge_v within_o they_o for_o the_o proof_n of_o this_o i_o shall_v only_o insist_v on_o such_o argument_n as_o do_v arise_v natural_o out_o of_o the_o text_n they_o be_v here_o compare_v to_o a_o house_n and_o a_o tabernacle_n now_o the_o notion_n of_o a_o house_n do_v imply_v some_o person_n or_o another_o that_o be_v to_o inhabit_v it_o no_o man_n be_v so_o unreasonable_a as_o to_o erect_v it_o but_o with_o a_o respect_n to_o this_o end_n and_o out_o of_o a_o design_n to_o fit_v it_o for_o the_o conveniency_n of_o some_o to_o dwell_v in_o it_o and_o the_o notion_n of_o a_o tabernacle_n do_v imply_v the_o same_o thing_n and_o direct_v we_o to_o the_o same_o sense_n and_o mean_v we_o read_v in_o the_o old_a testament_n of_o the_o tabernacle_n of_o the_o testament_n and_o of_o the_o tabernacle_n of_o the_o shepherd_n the_o former_a direct_v we_o to_o the_o presence_n of_o god_n that_o be_v please_v to_o dwell_v in_o it_o and_o for_o who_o honour_n and_o service_n it_o be_v erect_v and_o the_o latter_a point_v we_o to_o the_o end_n and_o use_v for_o which_o those_o tabernacle_n be_v erect_v namely_o for_o the_o conveniency_n of_o the_o shepherd_n that_o be_v to_o lodge_v in_o they_o it_o be_v so_o likewise_o in_o the_o state_n and_o condition_n of_o these_o mortal_a body_n that_o god_n have_v give_v to_o the_o son_n of_o man_n which_o be_v only_o prepare_v for_o the_o receptacle_n of_o our_o soul_n to_o be_v a_o help_v meet_v and_o convenient_a for_o they_o and_o to_o serve_v
