shall_v be_v like_a unto_o jesus_n christ_n in_o splendour_n and_o beauty_n their_o body_n shall_v be_v clothe_v with_o glory_n and_o majesty_n like_v unto_o the_o body_n of_o jesus_n christ_n as_o

say_v he_o now_o we_o be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n and_o it_o do_v not_o yet_o appear_v what_o we_o shall_v be_v mark_n though_o we_o have_v so_o much_o honour_n and_o dignity_n confer_v upon_o we_o now_o at_o present_a as_o to_o be_v call_v the_o son_n of_o god_n and_o though_o the_o lord_n be_v please_v to_o extend_v his_o goodness_n so_o far_o towards_o we_o now_o at_o present_a as_o to_o

the_o apostle_n exceed_o admire_v at_o the_o consideration_n thereof_o cry_v out_o behold_v what_o manner_n of_o love_n be_v this_o that_o we_o shall_v be_v call_v the_o son_n of_o god_n he_o be_v

he_o be_v glorious_a every_o way_n adorn_v with_o heavenly_a happiness_n like_a unto_o jesus_n christ_n this_o be_v also_o another_o excellent_a privilege_n or_o a_o four_o branch_n of_o that_o happiness_n which_o the_o saint_n shall_v be_v make_v partaker_n of_o in_o this_o glorious_a kingdom_n five_o another_o be_v this_o 5._o they_o shall_v have_v wonderful_a glorious_a company_n and_o bless_a society_n they_o shall_v be_v continual_o honour_v with_o heavenly_a company_n and_o bless_v with_o glorious_a companion_n the_o mean_a and_o worst_a of_o their_o companion_n shall_v be_v bless_v and_o glorious_a angel_n though_o now_o it_o may_v be_v they_o be_v so_o much_o despise_v by_o the_o world_n as_o that_o they_o be_v not_o count_v worthy_a to_o dwell_v in_o the_o society_n of_o wicked_a man_n yet_o they_o be_v so_o much_o honour_v by_o the_o lord_n as_o that_o they_o shall_v one_o day_n be_v count_v worthy_a to_o dwell_v in_o the_o society_n of_o bless_a angel_n and_o they_o shall_v be_v their_o mean_a companion_n this_o be_v another_o glorious_a privilege_n &_o excellent_a dignity_n for_o the_o people_n of_o god_n in_o this_o heavenly_a kingdom_n they_o shall_v never_o have_v cause_n to_o complain_v of_o their_o company_n nor_o never_o have_v cause_n to_o be_v weary_a of_o their_o society_n for_o their_o mean_a company_n shall_v be_v glorious_a angel_n and_o their_o worst_a society_n shall_v be_v heavenly_a spirit_n and_o indeed_o this_o be_v a_o privilege_n which_o be_v very_o acceptable_a and_o delightful_a unto_o god_n people_n and_o high_o esteem_v and_o much_o to_o be_v desire_v among_o good_a man_n now_o upon_o earth_n i_o mean_v godly_a society_n for_o indeed_o those_o that_o true_o fear_v god_n do_v count_v it_o a_o great_a privilege_n to_o enjoy_v the_o society_n of_o good_a people_n and_o will_v reckon_v it_o a_o great_a happiness_n to_o be_v whole_o and_o altogether_o free_v from_o evil_a company_n that_o they_o may_v always_o enjoy_v the_o society_n of_o godly_a people_n therefore_o say_v david_n psal_n 16.3_o my_o goodness_n extend_v not_o only_o unto_o thou_o o_o lord_n but_o unto_o thy_o saint_n and_o excellent_a one_o in_o

therefore_o say_v the_o apostle_n heb._n 12.22_o 23._o you_o be_v come_v unto_o mount_n zion_n and_o unto_o the_o city_n of_o the_o live_a god_n the_o heavenly_a jerusalem_n and_o to_o a_o

his_o earthly_a glory_n and_o dignity_n and_o do_v mighty_o bear_v up_o his_o soul_n in_o the_o midst_n of_o suffering_n yea_o further_o let_v i_o tell_v you_o this_o very_a consideration_n be_v a_o

to_o consider_v his_o example_n and_o to_o make_v he_o our_o pattern_n in_o this_o very_a particular_a heb._n 12.2_o 3._o where_o the_o apostle_n bid_v we_o look_v unto_o jesus_n the_o author_n and_o finisher_n of_o our_o faith_n who_o for_o the_o joy_n that_o be_v set_v before_o he_o endure_v the_o cross_n and_o despise_v the_o shame_n and_o be_v now_o set_v down_o at_o the_o right_a hand_n of_o the_o throne_n of_o god_n mark_n the_o joy_n that_o be_v set_v before_o he_o and_o the_o crown_n that_o be_v lay_v up_o for_o he_o be_v that_o which_o do_v exceed_o bear_v up_o his_o soul_n to_o endure_v the_o cross_n and_o carry_v he_o forth_o to_o despise_v the_o shame_n for_o he_o know_v that_o though_o he_o be_v attend_v with_o sorrow_n here_o on_o earth_n yet_o there_o be_v joy_n enough_o in_o heaven_n to_o make_v he_o amends_o for_o all_o and_o though_o he_o be_v now_o clothe_v with_o shame_n and_o reproach_n yet_o he_o shall_v short_o be_v clothe_v with_o glory_n and_o majesty_n in_o his_o father_n kingdom_n and_o for_o his_o cross_n he_o shall_v receive_v a_o heavenly_a crown_n therefore_o he_o willing_o bear_v the_o cross_n and_o patient_o undergo_v the_o reproach_n know_v that_o this_o glorious_a reward_n will_v large_o requite_v he_o for_o all_o his_o trouble_n therefore_o say_v the_o apostle_n consider_v he_o that_o endure_v such_o contradiction_n of_o sinner_n against_o himself_o lest_o you_o be_v weary_v and_o faint_a in_o your_o mind_n when_o we_o be_v surround_v with_o sorrow_n and_o compass_v about_o with_o trouble_n let_v we_o remember_v our_o heavenly_a portion_n where_o we_o shall_v have_v fullness_n of_o joy_n and_o pleasure_n for_o ever_o and_o when_o we_o be_v attend_v with_o cross_n and_o several_a calamity_n then_o let_v we_o remember_v our_o crown_n of_o glory_n reserve_v for_o we_o in_o our_o father_n kingdom_n let_v we_o in_o all_o thing_n consider_v the_o example_n of_o jesus_n christ_n and_o be_v sure_a to_o follow_v his_o step_n and_o then_o we_o shall_v be_v sure_a to_o partake_v of_o the_o same_o encouragement_n and_o be_v in_o a_o better_a capacity_n to_o run_v with_o patience_n the_o race_n that_o be_v set_v before_o we_o thus_o much_o for_o the_o three_o use_v by_o way_n of_o encouragement_n but_o four_o by_o way_n of_o exhortation_n this_o may_v serve_v to_o exhort_v we_o to_o three_o thing_n first_o see_v it_o be_v so_o that_o the_o lord_n have_v so_o much_o tender_a love_n and_o respect_n for_o his_o people_n as_o to_o provide_v and_o prepare_v a_o kingdom_n for_o they_o oh_o then_o let_v we_o be_v exhort_v to_o increase_v and_o abound_v in_o our_o love_n one_o towards_o another_o let_v we_o be_v sure_a to_o continue_v steadfast_a in_o brotherly_a love_n and_o to_o abound_v in_o christian_a charity_n one_o towards_o another_o as_o become_v the_o elect_a of_o god_n for_o if_o the_o lord_n himself_o have_v such_o bowel_n of_o love_n and_o affection_n for_o they_o as_o to_o honour_v they_o with_o a_o crown_n and_o kingdom_n how_o much_o more_o shall_v we_o have_v bowel_n of_o love_n and_o affection_n one_o towards_o another_o for_o who_o this_o kingdom_n be_v provide_v and_o if_o the_o lord_n himself_o tender_v his_o people_n as_o the_o apple_n of_o his_o eye_n and_o count_v they_o worthy_a of_o eternal_a glory_n oh_o how_o may_v this_o engage_v we_o to_o be_v tender_a one_o towards_o another_o and_o count_v one_o another_o worthy_a of_o respect_n and_o love_v yea_o it_o may_v engage_v we_o to_o manifest_a abundance_n of_o tender_a love_n and_o cordial_a affection_n even_o to_o the_o mean_a and_o poor_a of_o the_o lord_n people_n yea_o though_o they_o be_v never_o so_o contemptible_a in_o the_o eye_n of_o the_o world_n and_o never_o so_o mean_a and_o low_a in_o their_o earthly_a station_n yet_o let_v we_o be_v tender_a towards_o they_o and_o embrace_v they_o in_o love_n and_o let_v we_o account_v they_o honourable_a and_o esteem_v they_o lovely_a for_o they_o be_v all_o heir_n of_o a_o glorious_a kingdom_n and_o they_o be_v all_o the_o dear_o belove_v of_o the_o lord_n therefore_o this_o may_v engage_v we_o to_o love_v one_o another_o and_o this_o may_v engage_v we_o to_o be_v exceed_o careful_a of_o each_o other_o welfare_n therefore_o say_v the_o apostle_n 1_o joh._n 4.11_o belove_a if_o god_n so_o love_v we_o how_o ought_v we_o to_o love_v one_o another_o if_o the_o lord_n himself_o have_v so_o much_o love_n for_o we_o as_o to_o make_v we_o heir_n of_o life_n and_o glory_n how_o shall_v this_o enjoin_v we_o to_o endeavour_v to_o exceed_v in_o our_o love_n one_o towards_o another_o and_o to_o abound_v in_o our_o affection_n towards_o all_o saint_n oh_o let_v we_o take_v heed_n of_o slight_v and_o contemn_v one_o another_o and_o let_v we_o take_v heed_n of_o scorn_v and_o set_v at_o nought_o even_o the_o very_o poor_a and_o mean_a of_o god_n jewel_n but_o let_v all_o those_o that_o true_o fear_v the_o lord_n be_v dear_a and_o precious_a to_o we_o though_o they_o be_v never_o so_o vile_a and_o ridiculous_a in_o the_o account_n of_o the_o world_n for_o they_o be_v all_o lovely_a in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n and_o they_o be_v all_o precious_a in_o the_o eye_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o we_o be_v all_o his_o child_n by_o faith_n in_o jesus_n christ_n therefore_o let_v we_o live_v in_o unity_n and_o love_n like_o brethren_n let_v we_o get_v and_o maintain_v a_o affection_n suitable_a to_o our_o spiritual_a relation_n and_o be_v sure_a to_o discharge_v a_o tender_a duty_n one_o towards_o another_o for_o we_o be_v all_o child_n of_o one_o father_n and_o we_o be_v all_o feed_v from_o one_o fountain_n and_o we_o all_o belong_v to_o one_o family_n and_o we_o be_v all_o heir_n to_o one_o kingdom_n therefore_o let_v we_o take_v heed_n of_o divide_v in_o our_o love_n and_o of_o difference_n in_o affection_n see_v we_o be_v all_o one_o in_o spiritual_a relation_n and_o all_o concern_v in_o one_o portion_n and_o see_v we_o be_v all_o travel_v towards_o one_o country_n and_o all_o journey_v towards_o one_o land_n oh_o let_v we_o take_v heed_n that_o we_o do_v not_o quarrel_v and_o fall_v out_o by_o the_o way_n but_o rather_o let_v we_o like_o honest_a traveller_n love_n and_o pity_v one_o another_o and_o comfort_n and_o encourage_v one_o another_o and_o bear_v one_o another_o burden_n and_o help_v one_o another_o forward_o in_o our_o progress_n towards_o heaven_n that_o so_o we_o may_v manifest_v ourselves_o to_o be_v the_o child_n of_o god_n and_o the_o disciple_n of_o christ_n by_o our_o
