As also of the Resurrection and Scripture. : All which are set forth in their severall natures and beings, according to the spirituality of the Scripture. / Written by Jacob Bauthumley.

proper_a and_o peculiar_a to_o god_n for_o i_o real_o see_v that_o after_o god_n be_v manifest_a in_o flesh_n and_o see_v of_o angel_n preach_v in_o the_o world_n and_o believe_v in_o that_o then_o he_o shall_v after_o all_o this_o be_v receive_v up_o into_o glory_n and_o that_o flesh_n and_o blood_n can_v inherit_v the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n and_o that_o nothing_o live_v to_o all_o eternity_n but_o pure_a divine_a glory_n i_o can_v conceive_v any_o other_o resurrection_n then_o of_o carnal_a to_o be_v make_v spiritual_a and_o that_o be_v no_o other_o than_o the_o spiritual_a appearance_n of_o god_n so_o that_o when_o i_o will_v find_v out_o what_o the_o resurrection_n be_v i_o reflect_v upon_o my_o own_o spirit_n and_o trace_v the_o go_n of_o god_n there_o and_o there_o i_o can_v find_v god_n rise_v from_o one_o degree_n of_o glory_n to_o another_o and_o change_v i_o into_o his_o image_n by_o his_o spirit_n and_o so_o i_o see_v how_o he_o have_v lead_v i_o from_o one_o dispensation_n to_o another_o and_o from_o one_o ordinance_n to_o another_o till_o at_o last_o he_o appear_v so_o spiritual_o that_o he_o over-power_n all_o flesh_n and_o form_n which_o i_o admire_v in_o my_o carnal_a condition_n and_o appear_v to_o be_v that_o temple_n glory_n and_o light_v himself_o which_o i_o have_v think_v to_o have_v have_v in_o a_o sensible_a and_o carnal_a enjoyment_n hereafter_o so_o that_o i_o be_o lead_v to_o believe_v that_o there_o be_v no_o such_o outward_a felicity_n to_o be_v enjoy_v in_o this_o resurrection_n but_o that_o it_o be_v god_n arise_v in_o the_o spirit_n and_o shine_v bright_a and_o bright_a till_o the_o perfect_a day_n &_o make_v all_o the_o creature-apprehension_n and_o knowledge_n of_o god_n to_o cease_v and_o this_o resurrection_n i_o clear_o find_v in_o my_o own_o spirit_n that_o the_o most_o glorious_a and_o enlarge_a part_n and_o ability_n in_o prayer_n speak_v or_o otherwise_o in_o which_o i_o have_v delight_v and_o no_o question_n but_o i_o do_v enjoy_v god_n in_o they_o though_o in_o a_o dark_a and_o low_a estate_n these_o i_o say_v the_o glory_n and_o beauty_n of_o they_o be_v all_o wither_a and_o vanish_v before_o the_o bright_a and_o glorious_a appearance_n of_o god_n in_o the_o spirit_n for_o the_o son_n in_o i_o have_v deliver_v up_o his_o kingdom_n and_o those_o fleshly_a and_o formal_a manifestation_n and_o outward_a bodily_a worship_n cease_v god_n be_v all_o in_o all_o so_o that_o i_o can_v neither_o in_o jerusalem_n or_o in_o the_o mount_n or_o in_o any_o outward_a form_n or_o duty_n worship_n god_n know_v that_o he_o be_v only_o to_o be_v worship_v in_o spirit_n &_o truth_n and_o that_o though_o god_n be_v with_o i_o in_o my_o former_a carnal_a and_o dark_a condition_n and_o do_v lead_v i_o in_o it_o gentle_o yet_o all_o be_v but_o to_o raise_v up_o himself_o and_o to_o be_v that_o spiritual_o in_o i_o in_o another_o way_n than_o that_o which_o i_o expect_v and_o so_o of_o natural_a he_o have_v make_v i_o spiritual_a which_o be_v the_o spiritual_a resurrection_n that_o we_o be_v speak_v of_o and_o further_o i_o real_o see_v that_o the_o flesh_n of_o man_n and_o of_o all_o other_o creature_n differ_v not_o any_o thing_n in_o the_o nature_n of_o they_o indeed_o in_o respect_n of_o the_o kind_n and_o manner_n some_o flesh_n be_v of_o man_n some_o of_o beast_n and_o some_o of_o fish_n but_o as_o flesh_n none_o of_o they_o be_v capable_a of_o any_o more_o glory_n than_o one_o another_o all_o be_v of_o the_o same_o mould_n and_o come_v to_o the_o same_o end_n and_o though_o the_o spirit_n in_o they_o or_o whatsoever_o be_v god_n in_o they_o return_v to_o their_o original_n which_o be_v god_n and_o so_o live_v in_o he_o again_o yet_o the_o fleshly_a part_n return_v to_o dust_n from_o whence_o it_o come_v and_o as_o the_o man_n die_v so_o die_v the_o beast_n as_o die_v the_o wise_a man_n so_o die_v the_o fool_n one_o end_n be_v to_o they_o all_o as_o solomon_n speak_v and_o whereas_o man_n imagine_v that_o there_o be_v a_o fleshly_a resurrection_n and_o that_o the_o same_o body_n flesh_n and_o bone_n shall_v rise_v and_o remain_v a_o corporal_a and_o visible_a substance_n how_o this_o shall_v be_v i_o be_o sure_a they_o do_v not_o know_v themselves_o for_o however_o man_n speak_v that_o the_o corporal_a body_n shall_v be_v make_v a_o spiritual_a to_o i_o it_o be_v ridiculous_a because_o the_o scripture_n say_v that_o which_o be_v bear_v of_o flesh_n be_v flesh_n and_o can_v remain_v in_o no_o other_o capacity_n and_o beside_o i_o hope_v no_o man_n will_v deny_v that_o a_o spiritual_a thing_n can_v be_v see_v of_o a_o fleshly_a or_o that_o a_o external_a organ_n of_o the_o body_n can_v see_v a_o internal_a and_o invisible_a thing_n the_o apostle_n make_v it_o plain_a that_o the_o thing_n which_o be_v see_v be_v temporal_a and_o the_o thing_n that_o be_v not_o see_v be_v eternal_a now_o how_o it_o can_v stand_v or_o consist_v with_o reason_n or_o scripture_n logic_n or_o rhetoric_n that_o man_n shall_v hold_v and_o maintain_v that_o man_n shall_v visible_o see_v one_o another_o in_o heaven_n as_o they_o call_v it_o and_o know_v one_o another_o and_o see_v their_o visible_a shape_n as_o they_o live_v in_o on_o the_o earth_n &_o yet_o they_o maintain_v on_o the_o other_o side_n this_o be_v a_o spiritual_a body_n i_o can_v see_v if_o this_o be_v divinity_n than_o i_o be_o not_o in_o the_o humanity_n but_o indeed_o i_o be_o willing_a to_o give_v way_n to_o their_o weakness_n because_o i_o have_v be_v as_o childish_a myself_o only_o i_o can_v but_o take_v notice_n of_o the_o babel_n and_o confusion_n that_o man_n be_v in_o and_o yet_o think_v themselves_o the_o only_a ambassador_n of_o peace_n and_o as_o if_o all_o knowledge_n and_o spiritual_a learning_n be_v confine_v to_o they_o but_o lay_v my_o hand_n gentle_o on_o their_o sore_n i_o let_v they_o pass_v and_o go_v on_o to_o that_o in_o hand_n and_o whereas_o the_o scripture_n speak_v of_o a_o spiritual_a body_n i_o conceive_v that_o there_o be_v a_o spiritual_a body_n and_o that_o this_o body_n must_v be_v raise_v which_o spiritual_a body_n i_o apprehend_v to_o be_v nothing_o but_o the_o divine_a be_v or_o god_n in_o spirit_n term_v a_o body_n for_o these_o two_o reason_n as_o i_o conceive_v first_o because_o god_n be_v the_o body_n and_o substance_n of_o all_o thing_n and_o so_o it_o be_v say_v that_o this_o god_n dwell_v bodily_a or_o substantial_o in_o the_o man_n christ_n he_o be_v that_o person_n in_o who_o flesh_n god_n do_v more_o glorious_o appear_v then_o in_o any_o other_o so_o he_o be_v the_o most_o express_a image_n o●_n his_o father_n person_n and_o in_o this_o respect_n god_n may_v be_v term_v a_o spiritual_a body_n though_o for_o my_o part_n i_o dare_v not_o imagine_v he_o to_o have_v either_o person_n or_o body_n second_o god_n may_v be_v style_v a_o spiritual_a body_n because_o this_o body_n or_o divine_a be_v be_v and_o have_v its_o be_v in_o many_o member_n and_o so_o god_n be_v style_v the_o head_n of_o the_o body_n and_o christ_n be_v the_o head_n of_o the_o church_n which_o be_v his_o

fleshly_a or_o outward_a dispensation_n or_o form_n they_o be_v but_o the_o cark_n and_o shadow_n of_o god_n who_o be_v the_o body_n or_o substance_n of_o they_o all_o and_o all_o these_o die_a and_o vanish_v as_o they_o shall_v god_n shall_v only_o live_v and_o raise_v himself_o a_o spiritual_a body_n and_o therein_o live_v to_o all_o eternity_n so_o that_o it_o be_v spiritual_o true_a that_o the_o body_n which_o be_v fleshly_a shall_v perish_v and_o the_o spiritual_a body_n shall_v be_v raise_v as_o we_o shall_v have_v occasion_n in_o the_o sequel_n of_o the_o discourse_n to_o make_v out_o but_o because_o man_n be_v still_o pore_v upon_o a_o scripture_n without_o they_o to_o prove_v a_o carnal_a resurrection_n and_o will_v believe_v nothing_o but_o what_o they_o think_v the_o
