A85735	A demonstration of the resurrection of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ; and therein of the Christian religion. Very usefull for the further satisfaction and confirmation of all good Christians; as likewise for the confutation and conviction of those that have a Jewish or atheisticall spirit in them. / Written by Richard Garbutt, Bachelour in Divinity, sometimes fellow of Sydney Colledge in Cambridge, and afterwards preacher of the Gospel at Leeds in Yorshire [sic].	Garbutt, Richard.; Jackson, Nathaniel, d. 1662.; Cartwright, Christopher, 1602-1658.	1656 (1656)	Wing G207; Thomason E1693_1; ESTC R202150	67,066	193

argument is this that the Jews saw they must either deny the Resurrection or necessarily grant that he was the Messias and therefore they tooke the best way they could for hindering any supposedness of it confessing that if the Resurrection was once probably blazed abroad the last errour would be worse then the first Matt. 27.64 and 42. Come downe now from the crosse and wee will believe said the chiefe Priests and elders Come up from the dead and wee will believe they could not but have confessed this to have been an argument much stronger and therefore Christ was the right Messias Vse 5 Fifthly If Christ be risen from the dead then he will undoubtedly also come to judgment for why rose he from the dead but to receive all power in heaven and in earth Matt. 28.18 and to have every knee bow unto him Phil. 2.10 And why received he this power but to execute it and make every knee bow unto him and where as yet appears this execution when there are so many stiffe-knees yet that will not bow unto him I meane disobedient ones that will not obey him and therefore certainly he will come one day to judgment when he shall make all them that will not bend now breake that will not bow now under his mercy bow then under his justice that will not now kisse the top of his golden Scepter reached out in grace and loving kindness be crushed by that Scepter-bruising them in displeasure see the connexion which Scripture usually makes usually joyning or subjoyning judgment to the mention of the Resurrection him hath God raised up the third day Act. 10.40.42 c. and what then and commanded us to preach unto the people c. so Act. 17.30.31 but now he commandeth all men every where to repent because he hath appointed a day in which he will judge the world by him whom he hath raised from the dead so 1 Thes 1.10 and to wait for his Son from Heaven and why what assurance for it why the assurance of his Resurrection whom he hath raised from the dead there is the assurance If therefore Christ be risen from the dead he will certainly also come to judgment he will not suffer the world alwayes to run so upon wheels to be so disorderly and full of confusion man rebelling against his maker the godly trampled under foot by the wicked servants riding on horseback and Princes going a foot the tayl standing where the head should be c. he will not alwayes suffer this confusion but those times of the restitution of all things shall come Act. 3.21 when every thing shall be restored to its own place when all gimmels shall be right when all disorder and confusion shall flee away when all things that offend shall be taken out of his Kingdome Vse 6 Sixthly If Christ be risen from the dead then sin is conquered for the sting of death is sin so long therefore as death had this deadly sting in it death could not have been conquered by any son of Adam every son of Adam being obnoxious to death by vertue of morte morieris thou shalt die the death though he had no sin in him actuall or originall but onely the imputation of Adams disobedience that Christ therefore a son of Adam rose victoriously from the dead victoriously never to returne thither again Act. 13.34 or death to have no more dominion over him Rom. 6.9 for otherwise Lazarus and others were raised from the dead but it was to returne thither again it must needs be that sin was conquered by him See the Scripture making this use of Christs Resurrection the foil and conquest of sin Act. 13.38 so Paul after he had urged and proved Christs Resurrection what infers he thereupon Bee it known unto you therefore that through this man is preached unto you forgiveness of sins so he was delivered for our sins and was raised again for our Justification Rom. 4.25 our Justification from sin is especially given to his Resurrection because by his Resurrection he did Demonstrate and make it plaine that sin was conquered his death would have done us no good if it had been possible that he could have beene holden by the power of death so Who is he that condemneth Rom. 8.34 it is Christ that dyed yea rather that is risen again what is the reason of this correction of this yea rather c was not Christs dying enough to free us from any condemning by sin yes but it was because it was the death of him that had power also to rise again c. and therefore the redemption of us from our sin appeared especiall in his powerfull Resurrection So in the present Chapter If Christ be not risen 1 Cor. 15.17 then are we yet in our sins implying that his Resurrection is the conquest of sin we have therefore what to answer all the infernall powers of Hell challenging us of sin even to answer them with the Apostle Who is he that condemneth it is Christ that dyed yea rather that is risen again c. Vse 7 Seventhly If Christ be risen from the dead then Piety and Religion comfort your selves that hope is in a strong redeemer and one that can deliver you out of the hand of all your enemies he that was too hard for death will be too hard for any of your enemies he hath slaine the great Goliah and is he not able then to put any weaker Philistim to flight for you he hath broken the barres of death and is he not able to breake the barres and gates of all the other enemies be comforted therefore against all feare and terrour Not a haire of your heads can perish without his providence and if it be his providence it is no great matter though yee lose your heads too they that can take your heads from off your shoulders cannot take your crownes from of your heads they may tumble your bodies into the grave they cannot seale the graves mouth upon them Well said St. Paul in comfort against all his enemies and all his afflictions 2 Timo. 1.10 and 12. I know whom I have trusted sc him that being risen from the dead hath abolished death and I am perswaded that he is able to keepe that which I have committed unto him against that day If Christ therefore be risen yee know whom yee trust even him that being raised from the dead hath abolished death and is able to keepe that which you commit unto him against that day Vse 8 Eighthly If Christ be risen from the dead then profaneness and irreligion beware your selves your disobedience is against as strong a revenger and one that is of as great power to confound his foes as to save his servants Their terrified hearts knew this Act. 2.36.37 who no sooner by St. Peters Sermon were they perswaded of the Resurrection and that God had made that same Jesus whom they
