person_n find_v themselves_o make_v for_o high_a object_n than_o what_o this_o world_n present_v and_o have_v a_o consciousness_n of_o their_o own_o eternity_n nothing_o can_v effectual_o compose_v the_o tumultuary_a roving_n of_o that_o mind_n but_o the_o assurance_n of_o a_o immortality_n and_o of_o such_o a_o immortality_n only_o which_o the_o christian_a hope_n for_o without_o this_o all_o the_o notion_n of_o the_o philosopher_n and_o sentence_n of_o the_o moralist_n signify_v little_a death_n can_v never_o be_v vanquish_v by_o such_o weak_a charm_n but_o will_v be_v still_o too_o hard_o for_o their_o principle_n too_o strong_a for_o their_o resolution_n they_o must_v sorrow_n even_o as_o those_o that_o have_v no_o hope_n so_o that_o the_o best_a of_o they_o pass_v off_o the_o stage_n rather_o in_o a_o obstinate_a vainglorious_a humour_n than_o in_o any_o true_a satisfaction_n or_o triumph_n but_o now_o the_o christian_a have_v a_o far_o better_a provision_n make_v he_o for_o beside_o the_o help_n and_o consideration_n he_o have_v in_o common_a with_o the_o philosopher_n which_o he_o may_v serve_v himself_o of_o when_o he_o please_v his_o religion_n offer_v he_o such_o support_v as_o be_v sufficient_a to_o repress_v all_o inordinate_a passion_n and_o compose_v our_o mind_n into_o a_o steady_a frame_n it_o assure_v we_o of_o the_o reality_n of_o a_o divine_a providence_n in_o the_o managery_n of_o thing_n here_o below_o that_o whatever_o affliction_n loss_n or_o calamity_n befall_v we_o be_v so_o order_v by_o a_o overrule_a providence_n this_o be_v a_o truth_n which_o the_o gentile_a world_n either_o absolute_o deny_v or_o however_o be_v not_o so_o well_o satisfy_v in_o as_o to_o make_v any_o true_a use_v of_o their_o adversity_n or_o to_o be_v patient_n under_o they_o but_o now_o we_o know_v that_o affliction_n spring_v not_o out_o of_o the_o dust_n nor_o trouble_v out_o of_o the_o ground_n that_o nothing_o fall_v upon_o we_o without_o the_o knowledge_n and_o permission_n of_o our_o heavenly_a father_n who_o still_o design_v our_o welfare_n by_o all_o the_o severe_a method_n and_o dispensation_n he_o exercise_n towards_o we_o and_o therefore_o the_o thought_n of_o this_o must_v needs_o render_v we_o more_o calm_a and_o sedate_v at_o such_o time_n than_o those_o who_o can_v spy_v out_o nothing_o of_o divine_a wisdom_n and_o goodness_n but_o look_v upon_o all_o their_o cross_n as_o the_o effect_n either_o of_o a_o ill_a chance_n or_o a_o inevitable_a fate_n but_o more_o especial_o do_v it_o relieve_v our_o thought_n by_o give_v we_o so_o great_a a_o assurance_n of_o a_o happy_a state_n hereafter_o that_o not_o only_o the_o soul_n but_o the_o body_n too_o shall_v live_v for_o ever_o that_o the_o whole_a man_n shall_v be_v perfect_o and_o entire_o raise_v and_o death_n at_o last_o be_v swallow_v up_o in_o victory_n therefore_o those_o that_o be_v dead_a be_v say_v in_o my_o text_n only_o to_o be_v asleep_a and_o if_o we_o sleep_v we_o shall_v do_v well_o 12._o as_o the_o disciple_n say_v of_o lazarus_n it_o be_v only_o a_o rest_n for_o a_o while_n in_o our_o dormitory_n but_o we_o shall_v as_o certain_o awake_v in_o the_o morning_n as_o ever_o we_o lie_v down_o and_o this_o we_o be_v ascertain_v of_o first_o by_o many_o full_a and_o clear_a testimony_n in_o the_o scripture_n of_o who_o divine_a authority_n we_o have_v so_o many_o undoubted_a proof_n here_o we_o be_v plain_o tell_v that_o the_o hour_n be_v come_v 28._o in_o which_o all_o that_o be_v in_o the_o grave_n shall_v bear_v and_o shall_v come_v forth_o they_o that_o have_v do_v good_a unto_o the_o resurrection_n of_o life_n hear_v it_o be_v say_v that_o when_o our_o earthly_a house_n of_o this_o tabernacle_n shall_v be_v dissolve_v 1._o we_o have_v a_o build_n of_o god_n a_o house_n not_o make_v with_o hand_n eternal_a in_o the_o heaven_n here_o it_o be_v promise_v that_o this_o corruptible_fw-fr must_v put_v on_o incorruption_n 53._o and_o this_o mortal_n must_v put_v on_o immortality_n nay_o here_o in_o the_o context_n we_o have_v a_o more_o particular_a description_n of_o the_o manner_n thereof_o and_o in_o what_o order_n it_o shall_v be_v second_o but_o more_o especial_o be_v we_o secure_v hereof_o by_o the_o resurrection_n of_o our_o bless_a saviour_n therefore_o st._n paul_n make_v use_v of_o this_o argument_n to_o excite_v in_o we_o these_o hope_n as_o in_o the_o verse_n after_o my_o text_n for_o if_o we_o believe_v that_o jesus_n die_v and_o rise_v again_o even_o so_o they_o also_o which_o sleep_n in_o jesus_n will_v god_n bring_v with_o he_o as_o if_o he_o have_v say_v if_o once_o your_o faith_n will_v carry_v you_o so_o far_o as_o to_o believe_v your_o lord_n resurrection_n you_o need_v never_o doubt_v your_o own_o this_o be_v a_o matter_n of_o fact_n surpass_v all_o the_o argument_n that_o can_v be_v draw_v from_o any_o other_o topick_n whatsoever_o for_o our_o saviour_n die_v in_o a_o humane_a capacity_n and_o be_v raise_v again_o do_v clear_o evince_v that_o we_o who_o be_v of_o the_o same_o nature_n be_v capable_a of_o a_o like_a restauration_n this_o indeed_o be_v a_o sensible_a experiment_n of_o the_o possibity_n of_o a_o resurrection_n but_o now_o that_o which_o be_v thus_o show_v to_o be_v possible_a be_v make_v also_o certain_a to_o we_o from_o the_o relation_n that_o be_v between_o christ_n and_o we_o as_o he_o be_v the_o head_n and_o we_o be_v his_o member_n and_o so_o shall_v be_v make_v partaker_n of_o the_o like_a condition_n with_o he_o so_o our_o apostle_n elsewhere_o 2_o cor._n 4._o 14._o know_v this_o that_o he_o who_o raise_v up_o the_o lord_n jesus_n shall_v raise_v we_o up_o also_o by_o jesus_n of_o which_o we_o have_v have_v a_o earnest_a by_o the_o spirit_n he_o have_v give_v we_o so_o our_o apostle_n again_o rom._n 8._o 11._o if_o the_o spirit_n of_o he_o that_o raise_v up_o jesus_n from_o the_o dead_a dwell_v in_o you_o he_o that_o raise_v up_o christ_n from_o the_o dead_a shall_v also_o quicken_v your_o mortal_a body_n by_o the_o spirit_n that_o dwell_v in_o you_o so_o that_o by_o this_o triumphant_a action_n chief_o it_o be_v that_o our_o lord_n have_v bring_v life_n and_o immortality_n to_o light_n bring_v those_o mystery_n to_o a_o full_a view_n which_o before_o lay_v hide_v under_o type_n and_o figure_n or_o be_v only_o faint_o apprehend_v by_o natural_a reason_n and_o to_o give_v we_o a_o further_a assurance_n of_o the_o thing_n he_o manifest_v his_o power_n before_o 52._o for_o at_o his_o death_n the_o grave_n be_v open_v and_o many_o body_n of_o saint_n which_o sleep_v arise_v and_o come_v out_o of_o their_o grave_n after_o his_o resurrection_n and_o appear_v to_o many_o intimate_v by_o that_o release_n of_o some_o few_o prisoner_n make_v then_o what_o a_o general_a goal-delivery_n there_o shall_v be_v when_o he_o come_v at_o last_o in_o his_o glory_n and_o now_o upon_o a_o review_n of_o all_o this_o shall_v the_o christian_a sorrow_n like_o those_o that_o have_v no_o hope_n shall_v he_o not_o be_v able_a to_o part_v with_o a_o pious_a friend_n or_o relation_n but_o must_v he_o lament_v he_o as_o if_o lose_v for_o ever_o how_o easy_o rather_o may_v he_o at_o such_o a_o time_n triumph_v over_o death_n and_o cry_v out_o where_o be_v thy_o sting_n o_o grave_a where_o be_v thy_o victory_n where_o be_v all_o your_o trophy_n the_o body_n indeed_o you_o have_v seize_v on_o but_o that_o be_v only_o a_o sacred_a depositum_fw-la commit_v to_o your_o trust_n for_o a_o time_n you_o must_v make_v a_o faithful_a restitution_n of_o it_o ever_o long_o the_o victory_n true_o be_v we_o and_o god_n have_v give_v it_o we_o through_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n by_o the_o help_n of_o this_o single_a consideration_n how_o often_o have_v death_n be_v triumph_v over_o by_o the_o primitive_a christian_n who_o have_v be_v so_o transport_v with_o the_o thought_n hereof_o that_o they_o have_v be_v eager_a to_o quit_v this_o dull_a mortality_n before_o they_o be_v call_v and_o to_o press_v upon_o those_o eternal_a mansion_n before_o they_o have_v complete_v their_o probation-ship_n here_o below_o and_o yet_o we_o have_v the_o same_o argument_n for_o the_o truth_n hereof_o as_o they_o and_o may_v have_v as_o strong_a evidence_n for_o our_o title_n however_o if_o our_o faith_n can_v inspirit_v our_o resolution_n so_o high_a yet_o sure_o it_o will_v be_v sufficient_a to_o moderate_v our_o grief_n to_o restrain_v the_o inordinacy_n of_o our_o
