one thing The Greekes call it doxazein but the translators in Latine haue othervvise interpreted it Thus much saith Augustine But glory in scripture is takē for light brightnesse and shine as S. Paul speaketh to the Corinthians if the ministration that thorowe the letter killeth was grauen in stone hathe glory so that the children of Israel could not beholde the face of Moises for the glory of his coūtenance And here vnto serueth this sentence of Daniel the wise suche as haue taught other shall shine as the brightnes of heauen and they that haue instructed multitudes or many vnto godlines shal be as the starres world with out ende Muche after the same wise doth the Lorde himselfe also vse it saying then shall the rightuous shine as the Sunne in the kingdom of their father Wherfore the glorified bodies shall be clere bright shining bodies euen as the body of Christ was in his transfiguration vpon the Mount of Thabor of whome it is specified in the gospell that hys face was as bright as the Sun and his clothes did shine as the light After the resurrection did the lord shew vnto his disciples his palpable and visible that is his very true substanciall body but the brightnesse and shine he reserued to teache and instructe the weake here beneath like as also after the resurrection he did eate and drinke not that he neded any suche thing but that he so would declare and proue the true resurrection of his bodye The glorification also is set directly against the low estate and dishonor as Paule euidently declareth saying he shal chaunge our vile body that he may make it like vnto his owne glorious glorified body This worde humilitye lowe estate or dishonor comprehendeth all that is called earthy fraile miserable mortall For by meanes of our sins we are broughte lowe and into misery so that we must nedes feele suffer sicknesse hunger thirst cold heat pain vexation manifold lustes and affections feare wrath heuinesse and suche like things innumerable yea and death also at the last Againe glorification comprehendeth deliuerance that is the laying away cleare discharge of al these miseries and sorows So that nowe glorification is called and so it is in very dede purenesse perfect strength immortality ioy yea a sure quiet and euerlasting life For Paule saith We that are in this tabernable sigh are greued because we would not be vnclothed but we woulde be clothed vpon that mortalitye mighte be swalowed vp of life And to the Romains he saith thus I suppose that the afflictions of this life are not worthy of the glory which shal be shewed vpon vs For the feruent desire of the creature abideth waiting for the appearing of the children of God. In all these words it is sufficiently declared what glorification meaneth and what is vnderstande by it Namely a fredome or discharge from this fraile seruitude and bondage and a deliueraunce into the gloryous and comfortable libertye of Goddes children By the which fredome we are deliuered from al sickenesse and frailtye and from all thraldome of weaknesse that is frō all that which bringeth sicknesse heauinesse and frailty From all such are we free discharged and deliuered hauing now the perfect fruition of god and made of like shape vnto his son Iesus christ as holy s Iohn declareth Herevnto serueth it well that Paule sayeth whan this corruptible hath put on incorruption thys mortal hath put on immortaliti then shal be brought to passe the saying that is written death is swalowed vp in the victorye Therfore the glorified body after the signification of glory shal be a purified bodi which is purged and clensed from all frailty and vilenes and now is clothed vpon and apparelled wyth clennesse purenesse ioy and rest and finally with the glory of eternal life That this is now the kinde and nature of the glorified body the holy Apostle Paul more largely and more perfectly declareth with these words it is sowen in corruption and riseth in incorruption and riseth in incorruption it is sowen in dishonor and riseth in glorye it is sowen in weakenesse and riseth in power it is sowen a naturall bodye riseth a spirituall body Item what he meaneth by the natural and by the spirituall body he declareth immediatly vpon the same and sayth farther If there be a natural body ther is also a spiritual body as it is wrytten The first mā Adam is made into a naturall life the last man Adam into a spirituall life Yet is not the spirituall body the first but the naturall and afterward the spiritual The first man is of the earth earthy the second man is the Lord from heauen As is the earthy suche are they that are earthy and as is the heauenly suche are they that be heauenly And as we haue born the image of the earthy so shal we bear also the image of the heauenlye This the holy Apostle declareth yet more euidently and saithe by one man came death and by one man commeth the resurrection of the deade For like as in Adam they all die so in Christe shal they al reuiue Thus Paule calleth Animale corpus the soulish body which is interpreted the natural body the same that hath his vertue strength power and life of the soule which body we haue of Adam and it is earthy fraile and mortal The spiritual body he calleth not it that is become or made a sprite but therfore nameth he the glorified body a spirituall bodye because it liueth of the sprite of Christe which spiritual body that is incorruptible indissoluble and immortall we haue receiued of Christ our Lorde Of all this is sufficiently spoken in our expositions of the epistles of s Paul. CHAP. 17. The case of oure members in the bodies resurrection of their functiōs BVt here might some mā sai if our very true bodies with their members shal be in heauē then it foloweth that the vse and exercise of the members shall be in heauen also To this I geue like answere as nowe is sayde namely that we shall haue euen these members and this bodye which we now cary but seeing that thorow the glorification they shal be made heauenly they shal not neede earthy exercise Neither shal they vse any frail thing at all Heereof commeth it that Paule saithe fleshe and bloude mai not possesse the kingdom of God neither mai corruption inherite vncorruption By fleshe bloude he meaneth not the true essenciall body but bodely fraile lustes and tentations whych he now called the earthy and fraile body Such tentations lustes saith he shall not be in the glorified bodies neither shall there any fraile bodies be in heauen For he saith immediatly vpon the same corruption shal not inherite vncorruption for in the kingdome of God there shall be no corruptiō nor frailty For the heauenly ioy is farre of another kinde and nature
