second_o because_o time_n also_o at_o present_a will_v not_o give_v leave_n in_o reference_n to_o other_o occasion_n i_o only_o hint_v at_o these_o few_o thing_n to_o caution_n the_o courteous_a

out_o of_o the_o dust_n thou_o have_v hear_v already_o prove_v but_o peradventure_o some_o may_v object_v and_o say_v object_n that_o flesh_n and_o blood_n shall_v not_o inherit_v the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n answ_n to_o that_o and_o such_o like_a objection_n i_o brief_o answer_v and_o say_v that_o this_o no_o whit_n contradict_v that_o man_n after_o they_o be_v rise_v shall_v be_v flesh_n blood_n and_o bone_n if_o we_o consider_v that_o the_o same_o apostle_n open_v the_o meaning_n of_o his_o word_n in_o the_o very_a next_o verse_n by_o say_v neither_o do_v corruption_n inherit_v

until_o that_o corruption_n have_v put_v on_o incorruption_n so_o then_o while_o it_o be_v corrupt_v flesh_n and_o blood_n it_o can_v enter_v into_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n for_o no_o corrupt_a thing_n shall_v come_v there_o yet_o notwithstanding_o man_n which_o be_v flesh_n and_o bone_n be_v at_o this_o time_n in_o heaven_n and_o so_o shall_v many_o more_o after_o the_o resurrection_n inherit_v that_o glory_n and_o yet_o shall_v be_v flesh_n and_o bone_n for_o man_n be_v create_v so_o at_o the_o first_o before_o he_o be_v corrupt_v and_o shall_v be_v so_o namely_o flesh_n and_o bone_n after_o his_o corruption_n be_v take_v away_o for_o when_o he_o cease_v to_o be_v flesh_n and_o bone_n than_o he_o will_v cease_v also_o to_o be_v man_n unless_o man_n can_v consist_v and_o

that_o the_o corrupt_a nature_n or_o infirmity_n of_o man_z can_v enter_v into_o the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n for_o so_o the_o original_a will_v bear_v it_o from_o the_o word_n 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d and_o be_v so_o read_v it_o lie_v without_o objection_n for_o i_o have_v ever_o affirm_v that_o the_o corruption_n or_o infirmity_n of_o man_n shall_v not_o enter_v into_o the_o kingdom_n of_o

give_v it_o a_o body_n as_o please_v he_o to_o which_o i_o answer_v and_o say_v that_o it_o be_v true_a it_o be_v not_o the_o same_o body_n which_o be_v sow_o in_o respect_n of_o corruption_n for_o the_o text_n say_v that_o it_o be_v sow_o in_o corruption_n and_o it_o be_v raise_v in_o incorruption_n and_o so_o it_o be_v true_a in_o that_o sense_n that_o the_o apostle_n speak_v of_o that_o be_v it_o be_v not_o the_o body_n of_o corruption_n which_o be_v raise_v although_o every_o seed_n shall_v have_v its_o own_o body_n only_o the_o corruption_n take_v away_o and_o this_o be_v the_o

as_o to_o this_o subject_a of_o discourse_n and_o in_o order_n to_o the_o clear_n of_o it_o i_o shall_v lay_v down_o this_o position_n as_o the_o groundwork_n to_o the_o discourse_n which_o be_v that_o god_n love_n be_v so_o great_a to_o the_o lump_n of_o man_n kind_n viz._n the_o whole_a world_n that_o he_o give_v his_o only_a beget_v son_n to_o death_n to_o bring_v all_o man_n to_o a_o

lump_n of_o mankind_n in_o use_v a_o mean_n to_o bring_v they_o to_o a_o resurrection_n of_o life_n and_o glory_n and_o i_o shall_v handle_v they_o in_o two_o particular_a subject_n the_o first_o will_v be_v the_o resurrection_n and_o the_o second_o god_n love_n to_o man_n in_o point_n of_o salvation_n and_o glory_n and_o so_o to_o the_o first_o subject_n namely_o that_o although_o man_n must_v die_v and_o be_v like_o water_n spill_v upon_o the_o ground_n yet_o the_o lord_n will_v bring_v he_o up_o again_o from_o the_o dead_a to_o live_v for_o ever_o in_o glory_n or_o misery_n according_a as_o they_o have_v receive_v his_o grace_n and_o walk_v worthy_a of_o it_o or_o as_o they_o have_v slight_v and_o abuse_v grace_n and_o mercy_n and_o not_o walk_v worthy_a of_o it_o the_o resurrection_n of_o the_o body_n prove_v as_o touch_v this_o subject_a of_o the_o resurrection_n i_o shall_v be_v brief_a yet_o full_a enough_o to_o prove_v it_o to_o be_v the_o truth_n of_o god_n and_o the_o foundation_n of_o the_o godly_a man_n faith_n and_o hope_n and_o my_o method_n to_o prove_v it_o shall_v be_v by_o lay_v down_o this_o position_n which_o be_v that_o the_o dead_a body_n of_o those_o that_o return_v to_o the_o dust_n shall_v live_v again_o and_o arise_v and_o come_v to_o judgement_n to_o receive_v according_a to_o what_o they_o have_v do_v whether_o it_o be_v good_a or_o evil_n for_o so_o say_v our_o bless_a saviour_n john_n 5.28_o in_o these_o word_n marvel_v not_o at_o this_o for_o the_o hour_n or_o time_n as_o the_o word_n will_v bear_v it_o 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d hora_n be_v come_v in_o the_o which_o all_o that_o be_v in_o the_o grave_n shall_v hear_v his_o voice_n and_o shall_v come_v forth_o they_o that_o have_v do_v good_a to_o the_o resurrection_n of_o life_n and_o they_o that_o have_v do_v evil_a to_o the_o resurrection_n of_o condemnation_n for_o the_o trumpet_n shall_v sound_v and_o the_o dead_a shall_v be_v raise_v incorruptible_a and_o we_o shall_v be_v change_v 1_o cor._n 15.52_o and_o that_o this_o be_v true_a weigh_v the_o follow_a reason_n which_o will_v confirm_v the_o truth_n of_o the_o position_n and_o the_o first_o reason_n be_v reas_n 1._o because_o christ_n himself_o do_v both_o die_v and_o rise_v again_o to_o be_v the_o first_o fruit_n of_o they_o that_o sleep_n that_o he_o may_v bear_v a_o sure_a testimony_n to_o prove_v the_o resurrection_n of_o the_o dead_a as_o say_v the_o apostle_n 1_o cor._n 15.20_o 21._o in_o these_o word_n but_o now_o be_v christ_n rise_v from_o the_o dead_a and_o become_v the_o first_o fruit_n of_o they_o that_o sleep_n for_o since_o by_o man_n come_v death_n by_o man_n come_v also_o the_o resurrection_n of_o the_o dead_a for_o as_o in_o or_o by_o adam_n all_o die_n even_o so_o in_o or_o by_o christ_n shall_v all_o man_n be_v make_v alive_a but_o every_o one_o in_o his_o own_o order_n vers_n 22.23_o reas_n 2._o second_o because_o the_o scripture_n say_v that_o our_o body_n shall_v be_v redeem_v from_o the_o grave_a and_o clothe_v with_o immortality_n and_o indeed_o it_o be_v the_o very_a thing_n that_o saint_n paul_n wait_v for_o and_o comfort_v himself_o in_o rom._n 8.19_o 20_o 21_o 22_o 33._o in_o these_o word_n for_o the_o earnest_a expectation_n of_o the_o creature_n wait_v for_o the_o manifestation_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n for_o the_o creature_n be_v make_v subject_a to_o vanity_n not_o willing_o but_o by_o reason_n of_o he_o who_o have_v subject_v the_o same_o in_o hope_n because_o the_o creature_n itself_o also_o shall_v be_v deliver_v from_o the_o bondage_n of_o corruption_n into_o the_o glorious_a liberty_n of_o the_o child_n of_o god_n for_o we_o know_v that_o the_o whole_a creation_n groan_v and_o travel_v in_o pain_n together_o until_o now_o and_o not_o only_o they_o but_o ourselves_o also_o which_o have_v the_o first_o fruit_n of_o the_o spirit_n even_o we_o ourselves_o groan_v within_o ourselves_o wait_v for_o the_o adoption_n to_o wit_n the_o redemption_n of_o our_o body_n from_o whence_o we_o may_v see_v that_o the_o apostle_n do_v look_v and_o wait_v in_o his_o mind_n for_o the_o resurrection_n of_o the_o body_n which_o be_v to_o be_v understand_v the_o resurrection_n and_o thus_o we_o see_v that_o our_o body_n shall_v be_v redeem_v from_o the_o dust_n and_o all_o kind_n of_o corruption_n which_o prove_v the_o resurrection_n and_o so_o i_o pass_v to_o the_o three_o reason_n which_o be_v reas_n 3._o three_o because_o the_o scripture_n say_v the_o dead_a body_n of_o such_o as_o be_v in_o the_o dust_n shall_v arise_v again_o and_o live_v as_o say_v the_o prophet_n isa_n 26.19_o in_o these_o word_n thy_o dead_a man_n shall_v live_v together_o with_o my_o dead_a body_n shall_v they_o arise_v awake_v and_o sing_v you_o that_o dwell_v in_o the_o dust_n for_o thy_o dew_n be_v as_o the_o dew_n of_o herb_n and_o the_o earth_n shall_v cast_v out_o the_o dead_a that_o be_v in_o it_o the_o which_o agree_v with_o the_o word_n of_o the_o prophet_n ezek._n which_o say_v and_o as_o i_o prophesy_v there_o be_v a_o noise_n and_o behold_v a_o shake_n and_o the_o bone_n come_v together_o bone_n to_o his_o bone_n and_o when_o i_o behold_v lo_o the_o sinew_n and_o the_o flesh_n come_v upon_o they_o and_o the_o skin_n cover_v they_o about_o and_o there_o be_v no_o breath_n in_o they_o then_o i_o prophesy_v as_o he_o command_v i_o and_o the_o breath_n come_v upon_o they_o and_o they_o live_v and_o stand_v up_o upon_o their_o foot_n a_o exceed_a great_a army_n from_o whence_o we_o may_v see_v that_o there_o be_v to_o be_v a_o resurrection_n of_o the_o body_n out_o of_o the_o dust_n of_o the_o earth_n to_o life_n again_o that_o all_o may_v come_v to_o judgement_n to_o give_v a_o account_n of_o what_o they_o have_v do_v in_o the_o body_n whether_o it_o be_v good_a or_o evil_n and_o so_o i_o come_v to_o the_o four_o reason_n to_o prove_v the_o resurrection_n of_o the_o body_n which_o be_v reas_n 4._o four_o because_o the_o same_o it_o which_o be_v sow_o in_o corruption_n the_o same_o it_o rise_v in_o incorruption_n and_o every_o seed_n shall_v have_v its_o own_o body_n as_o say_v saint_n paul_n 1_o cor._n 15.42_o so_o also_o be_v the_o resurrection_n it_o be_v sow_o in_o corruption_n it_o be_v raise_v in_o incorruption_n for_o this_o corruptible_fw-fr must_v put_v on_o incorruption_n and_o this_o mortal_a must_v put_v on_o immortality_n so_o when_o this_o corruptible_a have_v put_v on_o incorruption_n and_o this_o mortal_a shall_v have_v put_v on_o immortality_n then_o shall_v be_v bring_v to_o pass_v the_o say_n that_o be_v write_v death_n be_v swallow_v up_o in_o victory_n o_o death_n where_o be_v thy_o sting_n o_o grave_a where_o be_v thy_o victory_n which_o clear_o prove_v that_o the_o same_o that_o go_v to_o the_o dust_n the_o same_o rise_v again_o out_o of_o the_o dust_n only_o the_o corruption_n put_v on_o incorruption_n and_o the_o mortal_a put_n on_o immortality_n which_o can_v be_v understand_v another_o body_n but_o the_o same_o body_n neither_o can_v it_o be_v true_a which_o be_v say_v death_n be_v swallow_v up_o in_o victory_n no_o for_o if_o the_o dead_a body_n rise_v not_o out_o of_o the_o grave_n than_o the_o grave_n have_v victory_n and_o be_v not_o conquer_v so_o as_o to_o be_v say_v o_o grave_a where_o be_v thy_o victory_n but_o the_o victory_n of_o the_o grave_n be_v destroy_v by_o christ_n death_n and_o resurrection_n that_o we_o shall_v not_o be_v hold_v therein_o all_o which_o prove_v there_o be_v to_o be_v a_o resurrection_n of_o the_o dead_a body_n out_o of_o the_o grave_n and_o so_o i_o come_v to_o the_o five_o reason_n to_o prove_v the_o resurrection_n of_o the_o dead_a which_o be_v reas_n 5._o five_o because_o job_n also_o confirm_v this_o truth_n say_v o_o that_o my_o word_n be_v now_o write_v o_o that_o they_o be_v now_o print_v in_o a_o book_n that_o they_o be_v

he_o can_v swear_v by_o no_o great_a that_o he_o desire_v not_o the_o death_n of_o such_o as_o die_v or_o of_o the_o wicked_a but_o tell_v they_o that_o their_o destruction_n be_v of_o themselves_o

of_o sin_n to_o such_o for_o who_o christ_n die_v not_o but_o more_o of_o that_o anon_o i_o pass_v at_o present_a to_o the_o second_o reason_n to_o prove_v that_o god_n give_v christ_n to_o die_v for_o all_o man_n to_o bring_v they_o to_o a_o resurrection_n and_o glory_n as_o before_o say_v which_o be_v reas_n 2._o second_o because_o as_o god_n have_v swear_v not_o to_o take_v pleasure_n in_o the_o death_n of_o they_o that_o die_v so_o he_o have_v also_o say_v that_o it_o be_v good_a and_o acceptable_a in_o his_o sight_n and_o well_o please_v to_o he_o to_o have_v all_o man_n have_v

all_o godliness_n and_o honesty_n for_o this_o be_v good_a and_o acceptable_a in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n our_o saviour_n who_o will_v have_v all_z man_n to_o be_v save_v and_o come_v to_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o truth_n for_o there_o be_v one_o god_n and_o one_o mediator_n between_o god_n and_o man_n the_o man_n christ_n jesus_n who_o give_v himself_o a_o ransom_n for_o all_o to_o be_v testify_v in_o due_a time_n from_o whence_o we_o may_v see_v that_o first_o as_o god_n have_v swear_v by_o himself_o that_o he_o desire_v not_o the_o death_n of_o the_o wicked_a second_o that_o he_o also_o say_v he_o will_v have_v all_o man_n save_v and_o that_o they_o may_v be_v save_v he_o say_v that_o he_o give_v christ_n to_o be_v a_o ransom_n for_o all_o man_n so_o that_o from_o these_o
