man_n his_o whole_a duty_n excellency_n and_o interest_n that_o it_o may_v be_v well_o with_o we_o in_o the_o life_n to_o come_v and_o it_o be_v worthy_a our_o serious_a consideration_n and_o observation_n that_o when_o the_o apostle_n paul_n refer_v to_o that_o forementioned_a prophecy_n of_o isaiah_n in_o which_o he_o foredeclares_a and_o prophecy_n of_o the_o future_a judgement_n in_o which_o every_o knee_n shall_v bow_v to_o our_o lord_n jesus_n and_o every_o tongue_n shall_v confess_v he_o lord_n to_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n the_o father_n he_o than_o give_v such_o like_a exhortation_n as_o be_v beforementioned_a to_o the_o believer_n say_v wherefore_o my_o belove_a work_v out_o your_o own_o salvation_n with_o fear_n and_o tremble_a for_o it_o be_v god_n that_o work_v in_o you_o both_o to_o will_v and_o to_o do_v of_o good_a pleasure_n do_v all_o thing_n without_o murmur_a and_o dispute_n that_o you_o may_v be_v blameless_a and_o harmless_a that_o i_o may_v rejoice_v in_o the_o day_n of_o christ_n that_o i_o have_v not_o run_v in_o vain_a neither_o labour_v in_o vain_a isa_n 45._o 22_o 23._o 24_o 25._o with_o phil._n 2._o 9_o 10_o 12_o 13_o 14_o 16._o and_o as_o this_o holy_a apostle_n give_v such_o like_a counsel_n to_o the_o believer_n unto_o who_o he_o write_v so_o he_o also_o set_v before_o they_o a_o imitable_a example_n by_o his_o own_o practice_n that_o they_o may_v be_v follower_n of_o he_o i_o have_v hope_n towards_o god_n say_v he_o that_o there_o shall_v be_v a_o resurrection_n of_o the_o dead_a both_o of_o the_o just_a and_o of_o the_o unjust_a and_o herein_o do_v i_o exercise_v myself_o to_o have_v always_o a_o conscience_n void_a of_o offence_n towards_o god_n and_o towards_o man_n act._n 24._o 14_o 16._o and_o again_o he_o say_v of_o himself_o and_o of_o other_o hearty_a believer_n we_o labour_v that_o whether_o present_a or_o absent_a we_o may_v be_v accept_v of_o he_o for_o we_o must_v all_o appear_v before_o the_o judgment-seat_n of_o christ_n that_o every_o one_o may_v receive_v the_o thing_n do_v in_o his_o own_o body_n according_a to_o that_o he_o have_v do_v whether_o it_o be_v good_a or_o bad_a know_v therefore_o the_o terror_n of_o the_o lord_n we_o persuade_v man_n etc._n etc._n 2_o cor._n 5._o 9_o 10_o 11._o eccl._n 12._o 13_o 14._o luke_n 21._o 34_o 35_o 36._o but_o we_o shall_v enlarge_v no_o further_o unto_o this_o particular_a but_o proceed_v on_o to_o what_o remain_v to_o wit_n 2._o we_o come_v in_o the_o next_o place_n to_o inquire_v and_o consider_v what_o be_v mean_v by_o and_o contain_v in_o the_o life_n to_o come_v which_o be_v mention_v in_o the_o text_n now_o we_o may_v premise_v this_o before_o we_o come_v to_o speak_v more_o distinct_o hereto_o that_o though_o in_o the_o evidence_n beforementioned_a we_o have_v speak_v of_o the_o future_a state_n indistinct_o and_o in_o a_o general_a consideration_n yet_o here_o in_o the_o place_n we_o be_v discourse_v of_o and_o from_o by_o the_o life_n to_o come_v we_o be_v to_o understand_v that_o bless_a and_o happy_a estate_n they_o shall_v enter_v into_o hereafter_o who_o do_v now_o exercise_v themselves_o to_o sincere_a godliness_n and_o unfeigned_a obedience_n and_o so_o much_o be_v plain_o intimate_v to_o we_o in_o the_o word_n themselves_o to_o wit_n godliness_n be_v profitable_a unto_o all_o thing_n have_v promise_n of_o the_o life_n that_o be_v to_o come_v without_o all_o peradventure_o that_o which_o be_v promise_v and_o which_o be_v promise_v unto_o godliness_n and_o unto_o they_o that_o hearty_o exercise_v themselves_o thereto_o must_v needs_o be_v as_o be_v there_o also_o say_v profitable_a and_o high_o desirable_a and_o valuable_a as_o also_o we_o may_v premise_v this_o that_o i_o shall_v not_o here_o distinct_o discourse_v of_o that_o intermediate_n state_n which_o the_o spirit_n of_o righteous_a man_n make_v perfect_a be_v in_o between_o the_o death_n and_o resurrection_n of_o the_o body_n but_o of_o that_o which_o they_o shall_v enter_v upon_o and_o perfect_o enjoy_v in_o and_o after_o the_o resurrection_n of_o their_o proper_a body_n now_o have_v very_o brief_o premise_v these_o two_o thing_n we_o may_v say_v in_o general_a that_o by_o the_o life_n to_o come_v here_o mention_v we_o be_v to_o understand_v a_o full_a and_o complete_a deliverance_n from_o all_o that_o be_v evil_a and_o afflictive_a and_o a_o perfect_a glorious_a and_o everlasting_a enjoyment_n and_o fruition_n of_o all_o that_o good_a and_o bliss_n which_o they_o shall_v be_v make_v capable_a of_o and_o as_o on_o the_o one_o hand_n death_n comprehend_v all_o that_o misery_n curse_n and_o woeful_a punishment_n which_o be_v the_o due_a and_o deserve_a reward_n of_o man_n trangression_n and_o disobedience_n thus_o the_o lord_n at_o the_o beginning_n threaten_v our_o first_o parent_n adam_n say_v in_o the_o day_n thou_o eat_v of_o the_o tree_n of_o knowledge_n of_o good_a and_o evil_a thou_o shall_v die_v the_o death_n thou_o shall_v sure_o die_v gen._n 2._o 17._o and_o so_o the_o apostle_n say_v the_o wage_n of_o sin_n be_v death_n to_o wit_n all_o misery_n and_o affliction_n rom._n 6._o 23._o and_o that_o eternal_a and_o dismal_a torment_n and_o destruction_n wherewith_o they_o shall_v be_v punish_v and_o torment_v who_o know_v not_o god_n and_o obey_v not_o the_o gospel_n of_o our_o lord_n and_o saviour_n be_v call_v the_o second_o death_n rev._n 2_o 11._o and_o chap._n 20._o 6._o so_o on_o the_o other_o hand_n all_o that_o glory_n and_o happiness_n which_o be_v assure_v unto_o and_o shall_v hereafter_o be_v enjoy_v by_o they_o that_o exercise_n themselves_o unto_o and_o perservere_a in_o well_o do_v be_v call_v life_n and_o eternal_a life_n and_o here_o the_o life_n that_o be_v to_o come_v so_o also_o it_o be_v say_v this_o be_v the_o record_n that_o god_n have_v give_v unto_o we_o eternal_a life_n and_o this_o life_n be_v in_o his_o son_n he_o that_o have_v the_o son_n have_v life_n these_o thing_n have_v i_o write_v unto_o you_o that_o believe_v on_o the_o name_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n that_o you_o may_v know_v that_o you_o have_v eternal_a life_n 1_o joh._n 5._o 11_o 12_o 13._o and_o concern_v both_o the_o punishment_n of_o sin_n and_o the_o gracious_a reward_n of_o piety_n the_o apostle_n say_v the_o wage_n of_o sin_n be_v death_n but_o the_o gift_n of_o god_n be_v eternal_a life_n through_o jesus_n christ_n our_o lord_n as_o in_o like_a expression_n also_o moses_n have_v speak_v in_o former_a time_n call_v the_o punishment_n of_o sin_n and_o disobedience_n death_n as_o that_o comprehend_v all_o curse_v and_o misery_n and_o the_o reward_n of_o righteousness_n and_o obedience_n life_n as_o that_o enclude_v and_o contain_v as_o we_o have_v say_v all_o blessing_n and_o happiness_n whatsoever_o of_o which_o they_o shall_v be_v make_v capable_a rom._n 6._o 23._o with_o deut._n 30_o 15_o 16_o 19_o 20._o ezek._n 33._o 11._o and_o so_o we_o may_v say_v of_o all_o who_o continue_v to_o exercise_v themselves_o to_o true_a piety_n 1._o that_o though_o they_o must_v needs_o all_o of_o they_o die_v as_o well_o as_o other_o man_n yet_o they_o shall_v in_o due_a season_n be_v raise_v again_o to_o the_o resurrection_n of_o life_n john_n 5._o 29._o luk._n 14._o 14._o they_o that_o

of_o death_n and_o the_o door_n of_o the_o grave_a and_o will_v bring_v they_o forth_o that_o sleep_n in_o he_o to_o the_o complete_a enjoyment_n of_o that_o glory_n and_o happiness_n which_o he_o have_v by_o his_o precious_a blood_n obtain_v for_o they_o and_z and_z promise_v to_o they_o and_o will_v then_o give_v unto_o they_o spiritual_a powerful_a and_o immortal_a body_n so_o as_o then_o
