and_o therefore_o to_o obviate_v that_o this_o article_n be_v add_v as_o a_o truth_n provable_a from_o scripture_n that_o christ_n go_v into_o hades_n the_o error_n be_v this_o that_o christ_n have_v

dead_a of_o who_o all_o the_o prophet_n speak_v of_o who_o the_o world_n have_v from_o all_o age_n ring_v to_o all_o nation_n though_o indeed_o the_o great_a expectation_n of_o he_o be_v eminent_o and_o more_o explicit_o keep_v alive_a among_o god_n own_o people_n the_o jew_n before_o his_o come_n into_o the_o world_n and_o they_o do_v look_v for_o such_o a_o one_o and_o though_o when_o he_o do_v come_v they_o reject_v he_o yet_o such_o a_o one_o they_o do_v and_o do_v still_o expect_v but_o we_o be_v convince_v that_o christ_n be_v that_o second_o adam_n and_o he_o have_v fulfil_v all_o

the_o promise_a seed_n and_o be_v as_o himself_o say_v the_o resurrection_n from_o the_o dead_a or_o he_o that_o shall_v raise_v the_o dead_a and_o therefore_o we_o be_v assure_v that_o our_o body_n shall_v be_v raise_v and_o that_o more_o especial_o second_o because_o christ_n be_v our_o lord_n he_o have_v redeem_a our_o body_n by_o his_o precious_a blood_n and_o he_o sacrifice_v his_o body_n for_o we_o and_o we_o have_v dedicate_v our_o body_n to_o he_o and_o he_o be_v lord_n of_o our_o body_n and_o as_o lord_n of_o they_o he_o will_v appear_v again_o in_o the_o body_n he_o appear_v in_o on_o earth_n in_o the_o body_n he_o ascend_v up_o into_o heaven_n in_o that_o body_n shall_v he_o come_v again_o to_o judge_v the_o quick_a and_o the_o dead_a and_o therefore_o in_o our_o body_n shall_v we_o arise_v to_o meet_v our_o lord_n yea_o our_o redeemer_n and_o mighty_a saviour_n for_o he_o will_v command_v the_o sea_n to_o give_v up_o its_o dead_a and_o the_o earth_n to_o give_v up_o it_o not_o only_o our_o soul_n but_o our_o body_n be_v redeem_a by_o he_o from_o the_o grave_a and_o here_o be_v the_o state_n of_o the_o dead_a he_o have_v not_o assume_v a_o body_n nor_o suffer_v in_o his_o body_n nor_o rise_v again_o with_o his_o body_n but_o for_o the_o benefit_n of_o we_o otherwise_o eternal_o mortal_a and_o lose_a creature_n in_o body_n and_o soul_n that_o our_o body_n may_v be_v make_v like_o his_o glorious_a body_n and_o that_o both_o body_n and_o soul_n may_v ever_o be_v with_o the_o lord_n and_o for_o a_o confirmation_n of_o this_o we_o consider_v far_o three_o that_o christ_n raise_v his_o own_o body_n but_o how_o know_v we_o this_o say_v you_o but_o then_o say_v i_o will_v it_o be_v satisfactory_a if_o you_o have_v see_v it_o will_v you_o have_v believe_v if_o you_o have_v converse_v with_o he_o after_o he_o do_v rise_v from_o the_o dead_a so_o fancy_v the_o rich_a man_n in_o hell_n but_o you_o remember_v what_o our_o saviour_n return_v to_o his_o
