Paul I do not the good thing which I would but the euil which I would not Rom. 8 19. And euery one whose heart and conscience can truly thus perswade him is vndoubtedly the elected child of God Where contrarily the reprobate delite in sin because they are of the world Ioh. 8 23. therfore loue the world Ioh. 15 19. the things of the world as the lust of the flesh the lust of the eyes and pride of life 1 Ioh. 2. v. 15. 16.

O how excellent things are spoken of thee thou citie of God Psa 87 2. The eye hath not seene nor the eare heard neither came into mans heart the glorious things which God hath prepared for them that loue him 1. Cor. 2 9. These maruellous things as Saint Peter saith the Angels desired to prie into 1 Pet. 1 12.

And euery creature with feruent desire wayteth when the sonnes of God shall be reuealed Rom. 8 19 shine as the sunne in the kingdome of their father Mat. 13 43. For although we be now the sonnes of God by faith in Christ Iesus Gal. 3 26 yet doth it not now appeare what we shal be 1 Ioh. 3 2. because that through Christian mortification 2 Cor. 4. verse 10. 11. and 5 15. wee are in this world as dead and our life is hid with Christ in God but when Christ which is our life shall appeare then shall we also appeare with him in glorie Col. 3 3 c.

And of all other Moses was once so hardie that he desired the Lord to shew him his very diuine maiestie but that request obtained would haue cost him his life and in mercie therefore it was denied him Exod. 33 18 c.

Seeing then after this life we shall alway haue the fruition of this excellent and heauenly glorie which now neither men nor Angels can sustaine not vpon an earthly mountaine in a material Tabernacle with Peter Mat. 17 4 but in Heauen in that precious and heauenly Ierusalem Heb. 12 22. with God the Father the Sonne and the holy Spirit that most blessed and glorious Trinitie in whose presence is the fulnesse of ioy and at whose right hand there are pleasures for euermore Psal 16 11. together with all the goodly companie of Angels Zech. 3 7. Heb. 12 22. and holy Saintes Mat. 8 11. seeing I say we looke for new heauens and a new earth according to his promise wherein dwelleth righteousnes 2.

Iob. 33. 4. Eccle. 12. 7. which being separate frō the bodie it self alone but after the general iudgemēt together likewise with the body immortal shal either rest in eternal ioy or abide in endles wo Ioh. 5. 29. breathing in their faces the breath of life whereby they became liuing soules Gen. 1. and 2. effectually blessing them and commanding them to multiply and to subdue the earth to rule ouer the fish of the sea the foules of heauen and the beasts of the field which came therefore willingly to submit them selues to Adam who as their soueraigne gaue them seuerall names as pleased him Gen. 1 28. 2. 19. Psal 8 6. c. And in Eden or Paradise a garden most goodly and pleasant for waters and all fruteful trees the Lord God set Adam and the woman permitting them free libertie to eate of all the trees in Paradise saue onely of one tree whereof he forbad them to eat most certainly telling them that whensoeuer they should eate thereof they should die the d By Adam sinne entred into the world death by sin goeth ouer all men because all men haue sinned Rom 5 12 for it is appointed vnto mē that they shal once die and then cometh the iudgment Hebr. 9 27 but they that liue til the last day shal in a moment in sted of death be changed from mortall to immortall 1. Cor. ●5 ver 52. 53. death Gen. 2. 8. c. and 3. 2. c.

And where S. Paule saith that Adam was not deceiued 1. Tim. 2 14 he speaketh not that either to excuse or to extenuate Adams sin but onely to admonish women of their dulie deserued subiection vnto their husbands Gen. 3. 16. because their grandmother Eue being first deceiued her selfe through the subtilty of the serpent 2.
