both_o in_o respect_n of_o his_o body_n and_o soul_n first_o the_o resurrection_n of_o the_o body_n be_v that_o whereby_o he_o raise_v the_o same_o from_o the_o grave_n a_o dead_a carcase_n to_o be_v a_o live_n and_o a_o most_o glorious_a body_n never_o to_o die_v again_o soul_n the_o place_n from_o whence_o christ_n raise_v his_o soul_n second_o the_o resurrection_n of_o his_o soul_n must_v be_v

but_o the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n be_v always_o with_o his_o church_n to_o guide_v it_o into_o all_o truth_n and_o the_o church_n of_o christ_n be_v the_o pillar_n of_o truth_n and_o a_o most_o
