we._n the_o apostle_n here_o speak_v only_o of_o those_o that_o be_v real_a christian_n who_o have_v sincere_o close_v with_o and_o be_v unite_v to_o the_o bless_a jesus_n they_o only_o have_v a_o

have_v reason_n to_o fear_v that_o when_o their_o earthly_a tabernacle_n shall_v be_v dissolve_v their_o soul_n will_v enter_v into_o a_o different_a habitation_n a_o house_n indeed_o contrive_v by_o infinite_a wisdom_n and_o frame_v by_o almighty_a power_n and_o a_o eternal_a house_n but_o not_o in_o heaven_n but_o in_o hell_n a_o house_n where_o there_o be_v blackness_n of_o darkness_n inconceiveable_a grief_n and_o intolerable_a torment_n a_o house_n prepare_v for_o the_o devil_n and_o his_o angel_n wherein_o the_o wicked_a must_v cohabit_v with_o and_o be_v torment_v by_o those_o apostate_n spirit_n who_o leave_v their_o primitive_a habitation_n for_o evermore_o a_o house_n wherein_o they_o shall_v be_v exile_n from_o god_n comfortable_a presence_n and_o every_o thing_n that_o be_v either_o real_o good_a or_o esteem_v so_o by_o they_o but_o i_o conceive_v the_o apostle_n speak_v not_o here_o of_o all_o saint_n for_o though_o they_o may_v know_v and_o have_v ground_n to_o hope_v that_o when_o their_o soul_n be_v dislodge_v from_o their_o body_n they_o shall_v enter_v into_o this_o blissful_a habitation_n yet_o all_o believer_n have_v not_o attain_v to_o this_o

and_o eternal_a state_n but_o he_o speak_v concern_v himself_o and_o some_o other_o christian_n who_o have_v attain_v to_o and_o be_v in_o the_o exercise_n of_o this_o knowledge_n this_o lead_v i_o to_o the_o second_o thing_n viz._n 2._o the_o predicate_v know_v this_o knowledge_n here_o speak_v of_o be_v a_o certain_a knowledge_n a_o firm_a and_o full_a persuasion_n that_o when_o their_o body_n shall_v be_v dissolve_v their_o soul_n shall_v be_v receive_v into_o heaven_n there_o be_v several_a thing_n include_v in_o this_o knowledge_n viz._n a_o firm_a belief_n of_o a_o future_a state_n of_o blessedness_n provide_v for_o the_o saint_n and_o into_o which_o they_o shall_v enter_v after_o death_n this_o may_v be_v know_v from_o the_o holy_a scripture_n wherein_o we_o have_v a_o sufficient_a confirmation_n of_o this_o sacred_a truth_n moreover_o a_o firm_a persuasion_n that_o they_o be_v interest_v in_o christ_n and_o make_v meet_v for_o the_o inheritance_n of_o the_o saint_n in_o light_n this_o they_o may_v know_v by_o compare_v themselves_o with_o those_o mark_n and_o character_n of_o the_o heir_n of_o salvation_n which_o be_v lay_v down_o in_o sacred_a writ_n by_o the_o lively_a exercise_n of_o their_o faith_n upon_o christ_n and_o by_o the_o testimony_n of_o the_o holy_a spirit_n bearing_z witness_n with_o their_o spirit_n that_o they_o be_v the_o child_n of_o god_n last_o a_o assurance_n of_o their_o preservation_n in_o a_o state_n of_o grace_n to_o a_o state_n of_o glory_n this_o they_o may_v fair_o collect_v from_o the_o word_n of_o god_n wherein_o there_o be_v a_o
