a_o christian_a in_o this_o case_n concerning_o christ_n who_o have_v i_o in_o death_n but_o thou_o and_o there_o be_v none_o in_o life_n i_o desire_v in_o comparison_n of_o thou_o the_o comfort_n of_o life_n be_v in_o the_o knowledge_n and_o the_o profit_n of_o death_n be_v in_o the_o fruition_n of_o christ_n if_o we_o be_v without_o christ_n it_o be_v hard_a to_o say_v whether_o be_v better_a to_o live_v or_o die_v the_o truth_n be_v both_o be_v hurtful_a whilst_o life_n will_v prove_v a_o increase_n of_o sin_n and_o death_n send_v to_o torment_v but_o if_o christ_n be_v we_o both_o will_v be_v to_o our_o advantage_n according_a to_o that_o of_o the_o 23._o apostle_n all_o thing_n be_v you_o whether_o life_n or_o death_n thing_n present_a or_o thing_n to_o come_v all_o be_v you_o and_o you_o be_v christ_n and_o christ_n be_v god_n 2._o but_o because_o all_o greek_a copy_n divide_v the_o verse_n into_o clause_n and_o as_o zanchy_n well_o observe_v it_o be_v not_o ib._n safe_a to_o recede_v from_o the_o plain_a read_n of_o the_o text_n unless_o necessity_n compel_v whereas_o here_o the_o verse_n be_v read_v according_a to_o the_o original_a be_v more_o full_a and_o no_o less_o true_a i_o shall_v adhere_v to_o our_o last_o as_o the_o best_a translation_n and_o so_o much_o the_o rather_o because_o in_o this_o construction_n it_o hold_v well_o in_o connexion_n both_o with_o what_o precede_v and_o follow_v therefore_o his_o expectation_n be_v that_o christ_n shall_v be_v magnify_v and_o he_o not_o ashamed_a whether_o he_o do_v live_v or_o die_v because_o if_o he_o live_v it_o shall_v be_v christ_n if_o he_o die_v it_o shall_v be_v gain_n and_o so_o no_o cause_n in_o either_o of_o shame_n to_o himself_o but_o from_o both_o there_o will_v accrue_v honour_n to_o christ_n again_o therefore_o he_o do_v not_o wot_v what_o to_o choose_v whether_o life_n or_o death_n because_o to_o he_o on_o the_o one_o hand_n to_o live_v be_v christ_n and_o on_o the_o other_o to_o die_v

manifold_a reason_n that_o divine_a providence_n have_v so_o order_v it_o 1._o that_o the_o member_n may_v be_v conformable_a to_o their_o head_n and_o we_o may_v follow_v christ_n the_o same_o way_n of_o death_n in_o which_o he_o have_v go_v before_o we_o to_o glory_n 2._o that_o by_o the_o pull_n down_o of_o the_o wall_n the_o moss_n may_v be_v fully-plucked_a out_o and_o by_o the_o dissolution_n of_o the_o body_n its_o infirmity_n and_o frailty_n whole_o purge_v away_o 3._o that_o the_o power_n of_o god_n may_v appear_v the_o more_o glorious_a in_o raise_v we_o up_o after_o

shall_v live_v though_o we_o die_v for_o these_o reason_n the_o wise_a god_n have_v appoint_v his_o own_o child_n to_o walk_v through_o the_o valley_n of_o the_o shadow_n of_o death_n to_o carry_v it_o yet_o one_o step_n further_o and_o that_o in_o a_o few_o word_n it_o be_v no_o other_o than_o s._n paul_n who_o be_v not_o only_o a_o christian_a but_o a_o apostle_n who_o take_v it_o for_o

and_o must_v die_v indeed_o they_o be_v according_a to_o our_o saviour_n metaphor_n the_o light_n of_o the_o world_n but_o such_o as_o after_o a_o while_n may_v be_v blow_v out_o by_o 20._o a_o
