be_v make_v we_o can_v never_o hope_v that_o we_o can_v rise_v again_o unto_o life_n but_o look_v to_o christ_n our_o saviour_n 1.20_o ●_o cor._n 1.20_o in_o who_o all_o the_o promise_n of_o god_n be_v yea_o and_o amen_o as_o say_v the_o apostle_n to_o the_o corinth_n we_o find_v sufficient_a reason_n and_o ground_n to_o believe_v the_o resurrection_n from_o the_o dead_a see_v he_o who_o be_v make_v man_n like_o to_o his_o brethren_n in_o all_o thing_n except_o sin_n albeit_o walk_v in_o the_o similitude_n of_o sinful_a flesh_n be_v put_v to_o death_n do_v loose_v the_o sorrow_n of_o death_n and_o be_v declare_v mighty_o to_o be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n touch_v the_o spirit_n of_o sanctification_n by_o the_o resutrection_n from_o the_o dead_a 4.14_o 2_o cor_fw-la 4.14_o therefore_o do_v we_o with_o the_o apostle_n to_o the_o corinth_n know_v that_o he_o which_o have_v raise_v up_o the_o lord_n jesus_n shall_v raise_v we_o up_o also_o by_o jesus_n for_o therefore_o be_v it_o that_o we_o be_v baptize_v for_o dead_a as_o say_v the_o apostle_n to_o the_o corinth_n for_o we_o that_o be_v baptize_v into_o jesus_n christ_n 6.3_o 1_o cor._n 2.15_o 29._o rom._n 6.3_o have_v be_v baptize_v into_o his_o death_n say_v the_o apostle_n to_o the_o roman_n and_o therefore_o if_o we_o be_v dead_a with_o he_o we_o believe_v also_o that_o we_o shall_v live_v with_o he_o for_o if_o we_o be_v plant_v with_o he_o to_o the_o similitude_n of_o his_o death_n even_o so_o shall_v we_o be_v to_o the_o similitude_n of_o his_o resurrection_n say_v the_o same_o apostle_n in_o the_o same_o place_n for_o he_o that_o be_v christ_n have_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n dwell_v in_o he_o as_o be_v plain_a by_o the_o apostle_n to_o the_o roman_n 3.24_o rom._n 6.5_o rom._n 8.8_o 1_o john_n 3.24_o and_o john_n in_o his_o first_o epistle_n say_v that_o hereby_o we_o know_v that_o he_o abide_v in_o we_o even_o by_o that_o spirit_n which_o he_o have_v give_v we_o and_o if_o the_o spirit_n of_o he_o that_o raise_v up_o jesus_n christ_n from_o the_o dead_a dwell_v in_o we_o he_o that_o raise_v up_o christ_n from_o the_o death_n shall_v also_o quicken_v our_o mortal_a body_n by_o his_o spirit_n that_o dwell_v in_o us._n 1●_n rom._n 8_o 1●_n so_o do_v the_o apostle_n from_o the_o presence_n of_o the_o same_o spirit_n prove_v the_o like_a effect_n in_o raise_v we_o from_o the_o death_n 4.13_o 2_o cor._n 4.13_o and_o therefore_o as_o he_o say_v to_o the_o corinth_n because_o we_o have_v the_o same_o spirit_n of_o faith_n as_o it_o be_v write_v i_o believe_v and_o therefore_o i_o have_v speak_v we_o also_o believe_v and_o therefore_o speak_v know_v that_o he_o which_o have_v raise_v up_o the_o lord_n jesus_n shall_v raise_v we_o up_o also_o by_o jesus_n and_o set_v we_o with_o he_o so_o it_o be_v evident_a that_o the_o resurrection_n of_o jesus_n from_o the_o death_n be_v the_o ground_n and_o foundation_n of_o the_o hope_n of_o resurrection_n from_o the_o dead_a to_o all_o that_o have_v the_o same_o spirit_n of_o life_n that_o be_v in_o christ_n jesus_n dwell_v in_o they_o for_o the_o law_n of_o that_o spirit_n of_o life_n which_o be_v in_o christ_n jesus_n do_v free_a all_o those_o in_o who_o he_o dwell_v from_o the_o law_n both_o of_o sin_n and_o death_n 8.2_o rom._n 8.2_o as_o testify_v the_o apostle_n to_o the_o roman_n hereby_o be_v we_o teach_v two_o profitable_a lesson_n the_o first_o be_v himself_o all_o the_o promise_n of_o god_n be_v first_o fulfil_v in_o christ_n himself_o to_o careful_o mark_v how_o far_o god_n accomplish_v his_o promise_n in_o christ_n his_o son_n for_o so_o far_o may_v all_o that_o believe_v be_v assure_v that_o he_o shall_v accomplish_v they_o in_o they_o through_o christ_n therefore_o have_v we_o hope_v of_o sanctification_n from_o sin_n resurrection_n from_o the_o dead_a and_o glorification_n in_o the_o heaven_n because_o these_o promise_n be_v fulfil_v in_o christ_n who_o we_o see_v crown_v with_o glory_n and_o honour_n as_o say_v the_o apostle_n to_o the_o hebrew_n 2.9_o heb._n 2.9_o which_o be_v make_v a_o little_a inferior_a to_o the_o angel_n through_o the_o suffering_n of_o death_n for_o god_n he_o predestinate_v all_o those_o who_o he_o have_v foreknowen_a to_o be_v make_v like_o to_o the_o image_n of_o his_o son_n 8.29_o rom._n 8.29_o that_o he_o may_v be_v the_o first_o bear_v among_o many_o brethren_n and_o therefore_o the_o knowledge_n of_o christ_n shall_v be_v to_o we_o most_o precious_a since_o we_o can_v know_v no_o more_o nor_o hope_v for_o no_o more_o blessing_n from_o god_n than_o we_o first_o know_v to_o have_v be_v bestow_v on_o jesus_n christ_n our_o head_n 30._o 1._o cor._n 30._o who_o be_v make_v to_o we_o of_o god_n wisdom_n sanctification_n justification_n and_o redemption_n &c_n phil._n 3.8_o &c_n &c_n therefore_o do_v the_o apostle_n paul_n esteem_v all_o thing_n loss_n for_o the_o excellent_a knowledge_n sake_n of_o jesus_n christ_n our_o lord_n and_o do_v judge_v all_o thing_n but_o dung_n that_o he_o may_v gain_v christ_n and_o know_v he_o and_o the_o virtue_n of_o his_o resurrection_n that_o he_o also_o thereby_o may_v attain_v to_o the_o resurrection_n from_o the_o dead_a the_o second_o lesson_n be_v to_o pray_v to_o god_n day_n and_o night_n to_o send_v we_o that_o bless_a spirit_n of_o promise_n see_v the_o thing_n which_o be_v wrought_v in_o christ_n shall_v not_o be_v accomplish_v in_o any_o but_o those_o who_o have_v the_o same_o spirit_n of_o life_n that_o be_v in_o christ_n jesus_n dwell_v in_o they_o and_o therefore_o they_o can_v not_o hope_v for_o renovation_n to_o the_o image_n of_o god_n and_o restauration_n of_o their_o dead_a body_n to_o the_o life_n of_o god_n and_o glorification_n with_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n wherewith_o christ_n be_v glorify_v who_o have_v not_o the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n this_o be_v the_o first_o use_n of_o this_o point_n whereby_o we_o be_v teach_v to_o discern_v true_a hope_n from_o the_o ground_n and_o foundation_n whereon_o only_o it_o be_v build_v and_o that_o be_v jesus_n christ_n alone_o the_o second_o use_n be_v to_o teach_v we_o requisite_a a_o distinct_a knowledge_n of_o christ_n requisite_a not_o only_o confusedlie_o to_o learn_v christ_n but_o even_o perticularlie_o to_o consider_v all_o the_o degree_n and_o several_a part_n of_o that_o great_a work_n of_o our_o redemption_n by_o he_o for_o the_o more_o solid_a and_o steadfast_a fix_v of_o our_o heart_n in_o he_o for_o albeit_o it_o be_v most_o true_a that_o he_o who_o be_v partaker_n of_o the_o death_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n be_v also_o partaker_n of_o his_o life_n &_o of_o his_o glory_n etc._n etc._n yet_o neither_o can_v the_o faith_n and_o hope_n be_v so_o stable_a nor_o the_o comfort_n so_o great_a as_o when_o in_o christ_n our_o lord_n we_o see_v a_o particular_a ground_n and_o warrant_v for_o every_o article_n of_o our_o faith_n therefore_o in_o this_o place_n do_v the_o apostle_n lead_v we_o to_o the_o resurrection_n of_o christ_n from_o the_o dead_a for_o establish_v our_o heart_n in_o the_o hope_n of_o our_o life_n with_o god_n in_o the_o heaven_n for_o as_o we_o go_v forward_o in_o consideration_n of_o the_o part_n of_o christ_n work_v and_o several_a action_n do_v by_o he_o for_o our_o full_a redemption_n so_o do_v our_o faith_n increase_v &_o our_o hope_n by_o degree_n to_o degree_n when_o we_o look_v to_o christ_n die_v for_o we_o we_o learn_v to_o believe_v remission_n of_o sin_n in_o his_o blood_n when_o we_o go_v on_o to_o his_o resurrection_n we_o embrace_v the_o hope_n of_o life_n from_o the_o dead_a when_o we_o look_v to_o his_o ascension_n we_o apprehend_v our_o ascend_n to_o the_o heaven_n and_o in_o his_o glorification_n we_o be_v comfort_v by_o the_o hope_n of_o that_o same_o glory_n thus_o do_v it_o serve_v much_o for_o our_o comfort_n to_o know_v all_o the_o perticularity_n of_o christ_n humiliation_n &_o exaltation_n according_a as_o the_o lord_n our_o god_n have_v reveal_v they_o in_o his_o word_n begin_v at_o his_o incarnation_n go_v on_o to_o his_o birth_n in_o great_a baseness_n express_v thereafter_o the_o trouble_n of_o his_o youth_n lay_v out_o next_o the_o sorrow_n of_o his_o life_n while_o he_o carry_v our_o infirmity_n walk_v in_o the_o similitude_n of_o sinful_a flesh_n and_o subject_a to_o all_o the_o infirmity_n thereof_o except_o sin_n proceed_v to_o his_o death_n and_o kind_a thereof_o be_v most_o accurse_a 3.13_o gal._n 3.13_o as_o witness_v the_o apostle_n to_o the_o galathian_o in_o all_o which_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n let_v we_o see_v our_o infirmity_n our_o sin_n and_o our_o sorrow_n lay_v upon_o he_o and_o we_o acquit_v of_o they_o in_o he_o thereafter_o be_v we_o lead_v
their_o mind_n to_o the_o image_n of_o god_n and_o must_v find_v themselves_o cast_v in_o a_o new_a mould_n and_o fashion_v to_o another_o shape_n and_o bear_v over_o again_o therefore_o we_o shall_v diligent_o try_v ourselves_o and_o consider_v if_o god_n at_o any_o time_n have_v be_v effectual_a in_o we_o to_o the_o alteration_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o our_o mind_n &_o renovation_n of_o our_o soul_n and_o if_o his_o spirit_n do_v possess_v and_o lead_v we_o so_o that_o our_o conversation_n be_v after_o the_o spirit_n and_o not_o after_o the_o flesh_n and_o as_o the_o apostle_n peter_n in_o his_o second_o epistle_n exhort_v we_o 1.10_o 2._o pet_n 1.10_o we_o shall_v study_v to_o make_v our_o call_n and_o election_n sure_a by_o add_v to_o our_o faith_n virtue_n and_o so_o forth_o for_o they_o can_v have_v no_o certainty_n of_o their_o call_n that_o be_v not_o sanctify_v and_o therefore_o not_o assure_v hope_n for_o when_o god_n make_v we_o his_o son_n 4.6_o gal._n 4.6_o he_o send_v the_o spirit_n of_o his_o son_n in_o our_o heart_n which_o cry_v 3.14_o rom._n 3.14_o abba_n father_n for_o if_o any_o have_v not_o the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n he_o be_v not_o he_o say_v the_o apostle_n to_o the_o roman_n 8.10_o rom._n 8.10_o and_o if_o the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n be_v in_o we_o say_v the_o same_o apostle_n the_o same_o body_n be_v dead_a because_o of_o sin_n the_o spirit_n be_v life_n because_o of_o righteousness_n therefore_o we_o may_v just_o conclude_v with_o the_o apostle_n pieter_n in_o the_o first_o chapter_n aforesaid_a of_o his_o second_o epistle_n after_o he_o have_v exhort_v we_o to_o join_v virtue_n to_o our_o faith_n and_o to_o virtue_n knowledge_n &_o to_o knowledge_n temperance_n 1.9_o 2._o pet._n 1.9_o and_o so_o forth_o that_o whosoever_o have_v not_o these_o thing_n he_o be_v blind_a and_o see_v not_o far_o off_o and_o have_v forget_v that_o he_o be_v wash_v from_o his_o old_a sin_n and_o so_o consequent_o that_o their_o hope_n be_v but_o a_o blind_a hope_n their_o confidence_n a_o blind_a confidence_n their_o boast_n a_o blind_a boast_n 5.17_o 2_o co._n 5.17_o for_o if_o any_o man_n be_v in_o christ_n jesus_n he_o be_v a_o new_a creature_n say_v the_o apostle_n to_o the_o corinth_n so_o to_o conclude_v this_o point_n it_o be_v better_o to_o a_o man_n never_o to_o have_v be_v bear_v in_o this_o world_n then_o after_o he_o be_v bear_v not_o to_o be_v bear_v over_o again_o by_o god_n and_o woe_n be_v the_o man_n who_o before_o the_o lay_n down_o of_o this_o natural_a life_n have_v not_o obtain_v another_o which_o be_v spiritual_a now_o follow_v the_o four_o point_n regeneration_n hope_n follow_v regeneration_n which_o be_v the_o benefit_n itself_o unto_o the_o which_o god_n of_o his_o mercy_n do_v beget_v we_o again_o that_o be_v a_o live_a or_o lively_a hope_n or_o hope_v of_o life_n this_o show_v we_o the_o purpose_n of_o god_n in_o beget_v we_o which_o be_v to_o cause_v we_o hope_v for_o as_o we_o have_v say_v before_o first_o we_o must_v be_v make_v the_o child_n of_o god_n before_o we_o can_v hope_v to_o enjoy_v his_o inheritance_n therefore_o our_o regeneration_n be_v a_o warn_n to_o we_o that_o we_o be_v the_o heir_n of_o god_n and_o coheire_n with_o christ_n and_o oblige_v we_o to_o hope_v for_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n see_v god_n have_v beget_v we_o because_o as_o say_v the_o apostle_n here_o he_o beget_v we_o to_o hope_v therefore_o where_o hope_n be_v not_o there_o be_v no_o new_a birth_n for_o the_o lord_n can_v not_o be_v frustrate_a of_o the_o end_n of_o his_o

hope_n that_o it_o be_v livelie_o or_o live_v and_o it_o be_v so_o call_v for_o three_o respect_n first_o because_o of_o the_o livelie_a work_n that_o be_v in_o it_o for_o all_o the_o spiritual_a gift_n of_o god_n which_o he_o bestow_v in_o christ_n be_v livelie_o as_o he_o himself_o be_v life_n and_o this_o the_o saint_n do_v find_v in_o themselves_o that_o the_o faith_n of_o jesus_n be_v a_o

therefore_o that_o faith_n that_o hope_v that_o love_n that_o lie_v dead_a in_o they_o who_o profess_v they_o be_v no_o faith_n no_o hope_n no_o love_n at_o all_o and_o so_o just_o do_v s._n james_n dispute_n against_o that_o faith_n that_o have_v no_o work_n as_o a_o dead_a faith_n whereas_o the_o faith_n the_o hope_n the_o love_n that_o god_n create_v in_o the_o heart_n be_v all_o livelie_a as_o proceed_v from_o he_o who_o be_v life_n itself_o the_o second_o respect_n whereof_o it_o be_v call_v livelie_o be_v because_o as_o it_o have_v life_n in_o itself_o so_o give_v it_o life_n to_o

that_o life_n which_o shall_v be_v make_v perfect_a in_o we_o in_o the_o world_n to_o come_v the_o three_o respect_n be_v because_o that_o eternal_a life_n and_o glory_n which_o as_o yet_o be_v not_o
