THE DOCTRINE OF THE BODIES FRAGILITY WITH A Divine Project discovering how to make these vile bodies of ours glorious by getting gracious Souls Represented in a SERMON preached at Martins Ludgate at the Funerall of that worthy and reverend Minister of Jesus Christ Dr. Samuel Bolton Master of Christ College in Cambridge who died the 15 of Octob. 1654. and was buried the 19 day of the same month By that painfull and pious Minister of Gods Word Mr. EDMUND CALAMY B. D. LONDON Printed for Joseph Moore over against the Pump in Little-Britain and are to be sold at Westminster and in Pauls Church-yard 1655 To the Christian Reader READER WEE live in such times wherein most men in the world cry out with those the Psalmist speaks of in the 4. Psalme Who will shew us any good inquiring and listening after the pleasures and profits and preferments of the world spending all their time and improving all their parts abilities and opportunities for the promoting their temporall interests and providing for their frail bodies subject to diseases infirmities and corruptions and which ere long must be laid down in the dust and in the mean time neglecting the concernments of their precious and never dying souls never valuing or at least not labouring after the light of Gods countenance which is better then life and the joyes of his salvation which are unspeakable and glorious but preferre their bodies before their souls greedily pursuing the world and only minding earthly things whose end as the Apostle saies will be destruction both of soul and body if they still run on without repentance This Sermon was designed to cure part of this evill and to put a stop to the folly and madnesse of such people by discovering to them a better way how to advance the interest of their bodies and to make them happy and glorious by having their conversations here in heaven and securing the interest of their souls in the first place Possibly this ensuing discourse was only intended for the edification of that particular Congregation where it was delivered but being there taken from the Authors mouth by the pen of a ready writer and now exposed to publique view all good people may partake of the advantages that are therein recorded whereat I hope no man ought to be offended A Sermon preached At Dr. Samuel Bolton's Funerall PHIL. 3. 21. Who shall change our vile body that it may be fashioned like unto his glorious body according to the working whereby he is able even to subdue all things unto himself WEE are here met at this time to perform the last office of love for a worthy reverend and godly Minister of Jesus Christ Dr. Samuel Bolton Master of Christs Colledge in Cambridge and this Text that I have chosen will afford us many sutable and seasonable considerations for such a meeting for here you have first the condition that the bodies of men even the best of men the Saints of God are in in this life they are vile bodies the Greek is very emphaticall {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} corpus vilitatis that is bodies of vilenesse or a vile body the Greek {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} signifies abjectam conditionem a vile and abject condition such as is the condition of slaves or bondmen 2. Here we have the condition that the bodies of the Saints shall be in at the glorious resurrection of the Just then their vile bodies shall be made like to the glorious body of the Lord Jesus Christ the body of vilenesse shall then be the body of glory 3. We have h●●e the persons that shall be thus changed at the glorious resurrection and they are such who have their conversations in heaven Who shall change our not every vile body but our vile body whose conversations are in heaven from whence we look for the Saviour the Lord Jesus Christ who shall change our vile body that it may be fashioned like unto his glorious body 4. We have the person that shall do all this and that person is the Lord Jesus Christ 5. The time when this shall be done and that is at the great day of Judgement from whence we look for the Saviour the Lord Jesus Christ who at that day when he comes to judge the world shall change our vile bodies 6. We have the means by which all this shall be accomplished and that is according to the working whereby he is able even to subdue all things unto himself and therefore able to make this glorious transfiguration and transformation of our bodies You may perceive by what I have said that this Text is a Cabinet of many precious truths here you have the Doctrine of the bodies fragility and vilenesse and the Doctrine of the bodies immortality and glorification at the resurrection of the just You have the Doctrine of the eternall day of judgement you have the doctrine of the main design and end why Jesus Christ will come to Judgement one chief reason of it is that he may change our vile bodies and fashion them like unto his glorious body My purpose is to pick out two of these jewels to speak to at this time 1. The condition that the bodies of the Saints are in in this life 2. The condition that the bodies of the Saints are in at the great day of judgement First I shall speak of the {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} of the body of vilenesse or the vile body and then of the {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} of the body of glory 1. That the bodies of the Saints as long as they are in this life they are vile bodies 2. That the Lord Jesus Christ at the day of jugement shall raise up these vile bodies and make them formable to his glorious body 1. That the bodies of the Saints in this life they are bodies of vilenesse the holy Apostle foresaw how prone men and women would be to be proud of the bodies and pamper their bodies and spend their time and care about their bodies even to the neglect of their precious souls and therefore he is pleased to call our bodies vile bodies and in 1 Cor. 25. 43. there he cals them bodies of dishonour {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} bodies of dishonour or bodies of vilenesse Object But you will say In what respect may the body of a Saint be called a vile body Answ. The bodies of the Saints may be said to be vile in regard of his primitive creation before it was defiled with sin for the body of man was made of the dust of the earth ex pulvere terrae not made of excellent materials as silver and gold nor of Celestial materials as Sun Moon and Stars but of perishing and contemptible materials the body was made of dust of clay and muddy dust ex luto 2. And more especially since the fall of Adam our bodies are called vile bodies because subject to vile
