but_o it_o set_v out_o the_o confidence_n he_o have_v of_o his_o own_o christ_n resurrection_n and_o we_o be_v make_v two_o several_a article_n of_o our_o creed_n first_o we_o believe_v christ_n rise_v the_o three_o day_n then_o again_o we_o believe_v the_o resurrection_n of_o the_o body_n that_o we_o shall_v rise_v also_o now_o divine_v observe_v that_o which_o make_v several_a article_n of_o our_o faith_n be_v the_o several_a difficulty_n that_o be_v in_o those_o article_n which_o we_o profess_v to_o believe_v now_o our_o resurrection_n carry_v with_o it_o the_o show_n of_o some_o difficulty_n and_o improbability_n that_o appear_v not_o in_o christ_n resurrection_n so_o that_o a_o man_n may_v yield_v to_o the_o truth_n of_o christ_n resurrection_n and_o yet_o stick_v at_o we_o and_o doubt_n and_o question_v that_o 1._o christ_n be_v god_n it_o be_v easy_a for_o he_o to_o raise_v up_o himself_o he_o have_v power_n to_o lay_v down_o his_o life_n and_o power_n to_o take_v it_o up_o again_o at_o pleasure_n but_o job_n and_o all_o we_o be_v frail_a and_o weak_a creature_n when_o the_o pit_n have_v shut_v her_o mouth_n upon_o we_o how_o shall_v we_o rise_v again_o 2._o though_o christ_n be_v dead_a and_o so_o his_o soul_n sever_v from_o his_o body_n yet_o his_o godhead_n and_o divinity_n be_v still_o unite_v to_o it_o his_o dead_a body_n be_v the_o body_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n still_o support_v and_o sustain_v by_o the_o deity_n and_o so_o be_v unite_v to_o the_o fountain_n of_o life_n it_o be_v more_o conceivable_a that_o he_o shall_v revive_v and_o live_v again_o 3._o christ_n body_n in_o the_o grave_n see_v no_o corruption_n or_o putrefaction_n no_o incineration_n turn_v not_o into_o dust_n and_o ash_n lay_v but_o three_o day_n in_o the_o grave_n and_o revive_v iob_n body_n and_o we_o shall_v be_v eat_v with_o worm_n turn_v to_o corruption_n rot_v in_o the_o grave_a many_o hundred_o year_n it_o be_v easy_a than_o to_o conceive_v christ_n resurrection_n then_o to_o believe_v we_o yet_o job_n you_o see_v set_v his_o scio_fw-la to_o both_o i_o know_v christ_n be_v rise_v and_o notwithstanding_o all_o these_o improbability_n i_o be_o

concern_v christ_n and_o the_o church_n in_o general_n you_o may_v believe_v firm_o and_o certain_o say_v i_o know_v they_o but_o for_o those_o truth_n that_o concern_v ourselves_o in_o particular_a that_o christ_n have_v redeem_a i_o sanctify_v i_o will_v raise_v i_o to_o life_n and_o glory_n there_o be_v no_o scio_fw-la for_o they_o we_o can_v be_v sure_a of_o they_o hope_v well_o we_o may_v but_o with_o contrary_a doubt_n and_o suspicion_n no_o in_o all_o god_n promise_n faith_n must_v labour_v to_o work_v out_o assurance_n quod_fw-la propter_fw-la deum_fw-la creditur_fw-la
