the_o change_n that_o come_v upon_o adam_n his_o life_n in_o paradise_n who_o be_v without_o shame_n yet_o be_v turn_v to_o a_o shameful_a state_n but_o to_o conclude_v this_o point_n the_o apostle_n to_o the_o corinth_n set_v forth_o most_o livelie_o these_o three_o property_n of_o our_o estate_n in_o heaven_n in_o the_o description_n of_o our_o resurrection_n from_o the_o dead_a oppon_v the_o present_a condition_n of_o our_o body_n to_o the_o future_a quality_n in_o heaven_n and_o comprehend_v the_o difference_n in_o these_o three_o special_o 15.42_o 1_o cor._n 15.42_o that_o our_o body_n be_v sow_v in_o corruption_n &_o be_v raise_v in_o incorruption_n they_o be_v sow_v in_o dishonour_n &_o be_v raise_v in_o glory_n they_o be_v sow_v in_o weakness_n &_o raise_v in_o power_n and_o he_o conclude_v by_o the_o four_o point_n which_o be_v as_o it_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o the_o other_o three_o to_o wit_n that_o they_o be_v sow_v natural_a body_n &_o be_v raise_v spiritual_a body_n hereby_o incorruption_n be_v express_v the_o first_o property_n of_o our_o inheritance_n here_o mention_v which_o be_v immortality_n &_o in_o the_o second_o be_v comprehend_v undefilednes_n and_o in_o the_o three_o this_o unchangeablenes_n for_o our_o life_n shall_v be_v immortal_a because_o we_o shall_v be_v raise_v in_o incorruption_n and_o our_o vile_a body_n dishonourable_a for_o sin_n and_o fruit_n thereof_o shall_v be_v raise_v in_o glory_n and_o therefore_o free_a from_o be_v defile_v any_o more_o &_o the_o cause_n why_o our_o life_n shall_v not_o wither_v be_v because_o that_o our_o body_n that_o be_v here_o weak_a shall_v be_v raise_v in_o power_n &_o the_o cause_n of_o all_o these_o three_o consist_v in_o the_o different_a manner_n of_o live_v that_o we_o have_v here_o and_o shall_v have_v in_o the_o heaven_n because_o our_o body_n here_o be_v natural_a body_n or_o animate_v body_n after_o the_o life_n of_o adam_n who_o be_v create_v a_o live_a soul_n therefore_o be_v our_o life_n subject_a to_o mortality_n dishonour_n and_o change_n for_o a_o soul_n can_v not_o give_v immortality_n purity_n nor_o unchangeablenes_n to_o a_o body_n but_o in_o the_o heaven_n our_o body_n shall_v be_v spiritual_a body_n after_o the_o life_n of_o christ_n who_o be_v make_v a_o quicken_a spirit_n for_o by_o the_o spirit_n of_o life_n that_o be_v in_o christ_n jesus_n shall_v we_o live_v altogether_o in_o heaven_n god_n be_v all_o in_o all_o the_o principal_a use_n of_o this_o point_n beside_o these_o before_o speak_v be_v to_o comfort_v we_o in_o tentation_n of_o this_o present_a life_n when_o we_o find_v our_o spiritual_a change_n even_o of_o our_o life_n in_o christ_n for_o the_o spiritual_a man_n be_v not_o at_o all_o time_n alike_o his_o faith_n be_v sometime_o

which_o now_o do_v flourish_n in_o strength_n and_o beauty_n do_v suffer_v change_n by_o sickness_n by_o age_n and_o by_o affliction_n that_o sometime_o it_o weaken_v sometime_o it_o seem_v to_o be_v

in_o the_o full_a freedom_n and_o liberty_n of_o holiness_n herewith_o do_v the_o apostle_n take_v up_o himself_o from_o his_o grief_n in_o his_o exclamation_n wherein_o he_o lament_v his_o own_o
