christ_n do_v ascend_v he_o be_v speak_v to_o his_o disciple_n thing_n that_o do_v appertain_v to_o the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n and_o as_o he_o be_v blessing_n of_o they_o he_o be_v take_v up_o before_o their_o eye_n act_n 1._o 9_o and_o when_o he_o have_v speak_v these_o thing_n while_o they_o behold_v he_o be_v take_v up_o and_o a_o cloud_n receive_v he_o out_o of_o their_o sight_n while_o he_o be_v blessing_n of_o his_o disciple_n and_o while_o he_o be_v speak_v to_o they_o thing_n appertain_v to_o the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n he_o be_v take_v away_o i_o will_v give_v you_o this_o note_n from_o thence_o that_o when_o you_o come_v towards_o the_o time_n of_o your_o departure_n out_o of_o this_o world_n make_v christ_n your_o example_n christ_n as_o he_o be_v go_v away_o he_o speak_v of_o thing_n appertain_v to_o the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n so_o let_v your_o heart_n be_v full_o fraught_v with_o divine_a contemplation_n do_v you_o leave_v good_a counsel_n behind_o you_o when_o you_o come_v to_o die_v that_o so_o some_o body_n may_v say_v these_o be_v the_o last_o word_n of_o a_o die_a friend_n i_o may_v extend_v this_o example_n of_o christ_n before_o his_o departure_n out_o of_o the_o world_n unto_o master_n of_o family_n that_o when_o you_o come_v towards_o your_o end_n leave_v good_a counsel_n behind_o you_o let_v not_o your_o speech_n be_v fill_v about_o worldly_a affair_n but_o let_v they_o be_v settle_v before_o but_o leave_v good_a counsel_n with_o your_o child_n jacob_n when_o he_o be_v to_o die_v he_o call_v all_o his_o child_n about_o he_o &_o give_v good_a counsel_n unto_o they_o &_o bless_v they_o likewise_o david_n 1_o chron._n 28._o 9_o and_o thou_o solomon_n my_o son_n know_v thou_o the_o god_n of_o thy_o father_n &_o serve_v he_o with_o a_o perfect_a heart_n and_o with_o a_o willing_a mind_n for_o the_o lord_n search_v all_o heart_n and_o understand_v all_o the_o imagination_n of_o the_o thought_n if_o thou_o seek_v he_o he_o will_v be_v find_v of_o thou_o but_o if_o thou_o forsake_v he_o he_o will_v cast_v thou_o off_o for_o ever_o and_o thus_o we_o see_v in_o the_o instance_n of_o isaac_n and_o many_o other_o servant_n of_o god_n moses_n to_o joshua_n when_o he_o be_v to_o die_v i_o but_o especial_o take_v christ_n example_n that_o when_o you_o be_v to_o leave_v the_o world_n you_o may_v have_v your_o mind_n possess_v with_o nothing_o else_o but_o with_o thing_n appertain_v to_o the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n as_o christ_n be_v four_o there_o be_v instruction_n to_o be_v gather_v from_o the_o manner_n of_o christ_n leave_v the_o world_n the_o manner_n be_v in_o act._n 1._o 9_o and_o when_o he_o have_v speak_v these_o thing_n while_o they_o behold_v he_o be_v take_v up_o and_o a_o cloud_n receive_v he_o out_o of_o their_o sight_n they_o see_v he_o by_o degree_n ascend_v into_o heaven_n this_o must_v not_o pass_v our_o meditation_n that_o a_o cloud_n shall_v take_v jesus_n christ_n out_o of_o our_o sight_n it_o be_v for_o a_o relief_n to_o your_o meditation_n that_o when_o you_o see_v the_o cloud_n to_o think_v that_o these_o cloud_n that_o i_o see_v hover_v in_o the_o heaven_n they_o be_v christ_n chariot_n that_o do_v once_o carry_v he_o to_o heaven_n and_o they_o be_v the_o chariot_n that_o shall_v carry_v jesus_n christ_n to_o judge_n the_o world_n o_o labour_n to_o have_v your_o meditation_n on_o divine_a thing_n he_o go_v up_o in_o a_o cloud_n therefore_o the_o cloud_n be_v call_v god_n chariot_n five_o note_v that_o circumstance_n in_o christ_n ascension_n that_o he_o will_v call_v all_o his_o friend_n about_o he_o it_o be_v express_o say_v all_o the_o eleven_o apostle_n be_v with_o he_o act_v 1_o and_o a_o interpreter_n do_v think_v that_o there_o be_v a_o hundred_o and_o twenty_o with_o jesus_n christ_n when_o he_o ascend_v up_o into_o heaven_n and_o he_o gather_v it_o from_o act_n 1._o 15._o and_o in_o those_o day_n peter_n stand_v up_o in_o the_o midst_n of_o the_o disciple_n and_o say_v the_o number_n of_o name_n together_o be_v about_o a_o hundred_o and_o twenty_o now_o learned_a man_n do_v think_v that_o there_o be_v a_o hundred_o and_o twenty_o that_o do_v see_v jesus_n christ_n ascend_v up_o to_o heaven_n it_o be_v clear_a that_o there_o be_v the_o eleven_o apostle_n there_o and_o if_o this_o be_v so_o that_o christ_n gather_v about_o he_o his_o friend_n when_o he_o be_v to_o leave_v the_o world_n i_o gather_v thence_o that_o when_o you_o be_v draw_v towards_o your_o end_n and_o depart_v out_o of_o the_o world_n labour_v to_o have_v your_o friend_n about_o you_o that_o you_o may_v give_v they_o the_o advice_n of_o a_o die_a friend_n and_o it_o be_v a_o great_a blessing_n for_o to_o die_v among_o your_o friend_n christ_n before_o that_o he_o will_v go_v up_o to_o heaven_n and_o leave_v the_o world_n he_o will_v have_v his_o friend_n about_o he_o and_o then_o he_o be_v take_v up_o from_o they_o i_o now_o come_v to_o draw_v out_o more_o practical_a application_n of_o this_o point_n if_o it_o be_v so_o that_o christ_n go_v up_o bodily_a into_o heaven_n be_v a_o ground_n of_o such_o great_a comfort_n unto_o the_o people_n of_o god_n upon_o earth_n the_o use_n that_o i_o shall_v draw_v it_o shall_v be_v to_o deduce_v four_o doctrinal_a and_o four_o practical_a inference_n from_o this_o point_n first_o this_o point_n confute_v the_o opinion_n of_o the_o selucians_n and_o hermiani_n that_o hold_v that_o christ_n body_n be_v not_o in_o heaven_n but_o that_o it_o be_v in_o the_o beautiful_a and_o splendent_a body_n of_o the_o sun_n and_o they_o say_v that_o be_v the_o reason_n the_o sun_n do_v cast_v such_o a_o glorious_a light_n over_o that_o the_o moon_n do_v and_o true_o this_o old_a heresy_n be_v again_o revive_v among_o we_o and_o i_o have_v see_v it_o in_o a_o book_n call_v divine_a light_n when_o indeed_o it_o be_v nothing_o but_o darkness_n but_o christ_n be_v above_o the_o sun_n christ_n be_v above_o all_o the_o visible_a heaven_n christ_n sit_v in_o the_o three_o heaven_n as_o paul_n call_v it_o therefore_o if_o christ_n body_n be_v go_v into_o heaven_n they_o be_v in_o a_o error_n second_o this_o point_n will_v confute_v those_o who_o hold_v that_o christ_n body_n have_v be_v on_o earth_n since_o his_o ascension_n into_o heaven_n some_o in_o germany_n hold_v that_o they_o be_v the_o very_a christ_n and_o thus_o in_o king_n henry_n the_o eight_o day_n there_o be_v one_o hold_v that_o he_o be_v the_o christ_n and_o his_o side_n be_v pierce_v and_o there_o be_v the_o print_n of_o nail_n see_v in_o his_o hand_n etc._n etc._n ay_o but_o if_o man_n say_v lo_o here_o be_v christ_n and_o there_o be_v christ_n believe_v they_o not_o for_o christ_n be_v never_o on_o the_o earth_n since_o his_o ascension_n three_o that_o christ_n body_n be_v now_o in_o heaven_n it_o overthrow_v the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o popish_a religion_n touch_v transubstantiation_n or_o the_o real_a presence_n that_o jesus_n christ_n be_v bodily_a present_n at_o the_o sacrament_n say_v the_o papist_n we_o bodily_a eat_v christ_n flesh_n and_o drink_n christ_n blood_n that_o christ_n be_v as_o bodily_a present_n at_o the_o sacrament_n as_o he_o be_v on_o the_o cross_n if_o there_o be_v no_o other_o argument_n to_o overthrow_v this_o opinion_n but_o this_o that_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n be_v now_o in_o heaven_n it_o be_v enough_o than_o that_o opinion_n of_o transubstatiation_n be_v hereby_o confute_v christ_n body_n can_v be_v in_o heaven_n and_o on_o the_o earth_n both_o at_o one_o time_n four_o the_o ascension_n of_o christ_n it_o overthrow_v the_o opinion_n of_o the_o carpacratiami_fw-la that_o hold_v that_o only_o his_o soul_n do_v go_v to_o heaven_n and_o his_o body_n perish_v as_o other_o and_o this_o can_v be_v for_o the_o disciple_n say_v that_o they_o see_v christ_n ascend_v and_o this_o must_v be_v his_o body_n for_o they_o can_v not_o see_v his_o soul_n for_o the_o soul_n be_v a_o spirit_n now_o you_o see_v the_o reason_n why_o i_o spend_v so_o much_o time_n in_o the_o morning_n in_o give_v you_o many_o text_n of_o scripture_n to_o prove_v this_o point_n because_o there_o be_v so_o many_o heretic_n that_o do_v oppugn_v this_o doctrine_n of_o christ_n ascension_n i_o now_o come_v to_o give_v you_o three_o or_o four_o practical_a deduction_n first_o be_v christ_n body_n now_o in_o heaven_n then_o i_o infer_v o_o thou_o that_o can_v lay_v a_o wellgrounded_n claim_v for_o a_o interest_n in_o jesus_n christ_n o_o be_v not_o thou_o afraid_a to_o die_v because_o thy_o christ_n be_v in_o heaven_n and_o when_o thou_o die_v death_n be_v but_o a_o trap-door_n to_o let_v thou_o into_o endless_a joy_n where_o christ_n
be_v why_o shall_v we_o be_v as_o child_n to_o look_v on_o death_n as_o a_o bugheare_n but_o look_v upon_o death_n as_o be_v a_o passage_n unto_o thy_o father_n house_n as_o be_v a_o trap-door_n to_o

they_o tell_v he_o all_o the_o word_n of_o joseph_n which_o he_o have_v say_v unto_o they_o and_o when_o he_o see_v the_o wagon_n which_o joseph_n have_v send_v to_o carry_v he_o the_o spirit_n of_o

rejoice_v to_o think_v that_o death_n be_v a_o chariot_n to_o carry_v thou_o to_o jesus_n christ_n to_o carry_v thou_o to_o heaven_n o_o therefore_o let_v not_o thy_o heart_n be_v trouble_v to_o die_v because_o death_n be_v but_o a_o chariot_n to_o carry_v thou_o to_o heaven_n be_v christ_n go_v into_o heaven_n then_o second_o labour_v thou_o while_o thou_o live_v on_o the_o earth_n to_o ascend_v

the_o eagle_n be_v after_o the_o prey_n three_o i_o infer_v hence_o that_o before_o you_o presume_v to_o apply_v the_o benefit_n and_o the_o comfort_n of_o christ_n ascension_n into_o heaven_n

those_o who_o plead_v for_o a_o thousand_o year_n first_o be_v this_o we_o read_v in_o the_o century_n of_o the_o church_n that_o the_o church_n of_o god_n be_v pester_v by_o valens_n the_o emperor_n after_o these_o 300_o year_n and_o of_o julian_n the_o apostate_n that_o do_v great_o persecute_v the_o christian_n and_o how_o can_v this_o be_v true_a when_o we_o read_v of_o so_o much_o

to_o sin_n for_o that_o there_o shall_v be_v valens_n the_o emperor_n do_v establish_v arianism_n and_o trouble_v the_o church_n of_o god_n one_o answer_v it_o be_v nothing_o like_o the_o persecution_n of_o the_o roman_a emperor_n it_o be_v nothing_o so_o long_a nor_o so_o tedious_a as_o the_o persecution_n under_o the_o roman_a emperor_n for_o for_o every_o day_n in_o the_o year_n

be_v the_o first_o resurrection_n that_o the_o saint_n live_v and_o reign_v with_o christ_n a_o thousand_o year_n this_o be_v the_o first_o resurrection_n how_o can_v it_o be_v say_v that_o after_o

a_o great_a loss_n to_o all_o the_o elect_n for_o we_o have_v the_o benefit_n of_o christ_n everlasting_a intercession_n and_o be_v christ_n upon_o the_o earth_n we_o shall_v lose_v that_o benefit_n heb._n 8._o 4._o for_o if_o he_o be_v on_o the_o earth_n he_o shall_v not_o be_v a_o priest_n see_v that_o there_o be_v priest_n that_o offer_v gift_n according_a to_o the_o law_n so_o that_o if_o

the_o world_n for_o they_o grant_v it_o shall_v be_v immediate_o after_o the_o thousand_o year_n now_o belove_v that_o opinion_n that_o carry_v this_o absurdity_n to_o know_v the_o day_n of_o christ_n

it_o will_v be_v a_o great_a disadvantage_n to_o christ_n in_o come_v to_o reign_v a_o thousand_o year_n on_o the_o earth_n to_o leave_v his_o father_n and_o heaven_n and_o come_v and_o only_o

be_v a_o loss_n to_o we_o that_o we_o shall_v lose_v the_o benefit_n of_o his_o priestly_a office_n but_o christ_n the_o son_n of_o righteousness_n be_v in_o heaven_n be_v more_o available_a to_o
