improve_v by_o the_o resurrection_n shall_v by_o the_o power_n of_o that_o spirit_n that_o raise_v they_o ascend_v into_o heaven_n and_o be_v capable_a of_o dwell_v there_o for_o the_o possibility_n of_o this_o be_v exemplify_v to_o we_o in_o the_o ascension_n of_o a_o humane_a body_n that_o be_v dead_a and_z rise_v again_o as_o we_o likewise_o shall_v die_v and_o rise_v again_o but_o now_o whether_o our_o lord_n ascension_n be_v to_o teach_v we_o where_o we_o shall_v live_v when_o we_o be_v rise_v again_o or_o no_o i.e._n whether_o we_o may_v conclude_v from_o thence_o that_o we_o shall_v ascend_v into_o heaven_n as_o well_o as_o we_o do_v that_o we_o shall_v rise_v again_o from_o the_o dead_a because_o he_o do_v be_v not_o easy_a to_o be_v resolve_v he_o tell_v his_o disciple_n indeed_o that_o in_o his_o father_n house_n be_v many_o mansion_n and_o that_o one_o reason_n of_o his_o ascension_n be_v to_o prepare_v a_o place_n for_o they_o and_o that_o at_o his_o second_o come_v he_o will_v receive_v they_o to_o himself_o that_o where_o he_o be_v they_o may_v be_v also_o joh._n 14.2_o 3._o but_o it_o do_v not_o plain_o appear_v from_o hence_o that_o we_o shall_v ascend_v and_o live_v with_o he_o in_o heaven_n the_o prepare_v the_o place_n where_o we_o shall_v live_v with_o he_o be_v the_o fruit_n of_o his_o ascension_n and_o we_o be_v plain_o teach_v in_o this_o and_o other_o text_n that_o when_o he_o come_v again_o we_o shall_v live_v with_o he_o in_o the_o place_n that_o he_o have_v prepare_v for_o we_o now_o he_o be_v in_o heaven_n but_o it_o be_v not_o evident_a that_o by_o his_o father_n house_n and_o the_o mansion_n therein_o we_o be_v to_o understand_v the_o heaven_n whither_o he_o be_v ascend_v he_o do_v intend_v thereby_o it_o be_v true_a the_o place_n that_o he_o prepare_v for_o we_o now_o he_o be_v in_o heaven_n and_o where_o we_o shall_v live_v with_o he_o when_o he_o descend_v again_o from_o heaven_n but_o why_o may_v we_o

peter_n say_v we_o look_v for_o new_a heaven_n and_o a_o new_a earth_n wherein_o dwell_v righteousness_n if_o that_o new_a earth_n which_o god_n will_v create_v be_v not_o design_v to_o be_v the_o habitation_n of_o man_n after_o the_o resurrection_n it_o seem_v something_o more_o natural_a and_o easy_a to_o be_v believe_v that_o man_n who_o consist_v of_o a_o material_a as_o well_o as_o a_o spiritual_a part_n shall_v rather_o have_v his_o habitation_n in_o that_o place_n where_o he_o be_v make_v and_o which_o be_v suit_v to_o the_o condition_n of_o his_o nature_n than_o to_o be_v carry_v to_o the_o place_n where_o angel_n and_o pure_a spirit_n have_v their_o abode_n st._n paul_n tell_v we_o that_o we_o which_o be_v alive_a and_o the_o dead_a shall_v when_o the_o lord_n descend_v be_v catch_v up_o together_o in_o the_o cloud_n to_o meet_v the_o lord_n in_o the_o air_n and_o so_o shall_v we_o ever_o be_v with_o the_o lord_n 1_o thess_n 4.17_o but_o his_o meaning_n be_v only_o this_o that_o when_o he_o shall_v come_v to_o judge_v the_o world_n we_o shall_v go_v forth_o to_o meet_v he_o or_o shall_v be_v conduct_v or_o convey_v by_o angel_n through_o the_o air_n to_o the_o judgment-seat_n and_o after_o he_o have_v give_v judgement_n upon_o the_o world_n we_o shall_v for_o ever_o be_v with_o he_o which_o do_v not_o imply_v that_o we_o shall_v be_v carry_v into_o heaven_n and_o there_o be_v with_o he_o but_o wherever_o he_o be_v whether_o in_o heaven_n or_o in_o the_o new_a earth_n that_o as_o st._n peter_n say_v we_o look_v for_o we_o shall_v ever_o be_v with_o he_o but_o let_v this_o matter_n be_v as_o it_o will_v the_o place_n where_o we_o shall_v be_v with_o he_o do_v require_v a_o change_n in_o our_o body_n if_o we_o must_v go_v to_o heaven_n with_o he_o flesh_n and_o blood_n such_o as_o it_o be_v now_o can_v inherit_v or_o enter_v into_o that_o kingdom_n and_o therefore_o some_o have_v imagine_v that_o our_o body_n must_v be_v turn_v into_o spirit_n because_o the_o heaven_n above_o be_v the_o proper_a habitation_n of_o spirit_n or_o if_o we_o shall_v live_v with_o he_o upon_o earth_n it_o will_v be_v upon_o a_o new_a earth_n wherein_o righteousness_n be_v to_o dwell_v a_o earth_n renew_v on_o purpose_n that_o it_o may_v be_v a_o suitable_a dwelling-place_n for_o our_o renew_a body_n and_o this_o prove_v that_o our_o body_n must_v be_v exalt_v to_o a_o more_o excellent_a state_n purify_v from_o all_o those_o corrupt_a appetite_n that_o make_v such_o a_o world_n as_o this_o be_v needful_a to_o we_o for_o if_o our_o body_n shall_v rise_v such_o as_o they_o be_v now_o this_o world_n such_o as_o it_o be_v will_v be_v a_o habitation_n proper_a enough_o for_o it_o nay_o such_o a_o one_o as_o they_o can_v only_o live_v in_o but_o a_o world_n discharge_v from_o all_o its_o vanity_n and_o corruption_n do_v require_v a_o immortal_a incorruptible_a creature_n to_o live_v in_o it_o and_o now_o if_o the_o same_o body_n we_o now_o live_v in_o must_v rise_v again_o and_o not_o only_o so_o but_o rise_v purify_v and_o exalt_v to_o a_o glorious_a condition_n according_a to_o the_o improvement_n we_o now_o make_v in_o virtue_n let_v we_o consider_v what_o thought_n this_o aught_o to_o furnish_v we_o with_o and_o 1._o how_o satisfactory_a ought_v the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o resurrection_n to_o be_v to_o we_o the_o only_a

must_v erelong_o languish_v away_o to_o a_o breathless_a carcase_n that_o our_o eye_n that_o let_v in_o so_o many_o delightful_a object_n must_v be_v eat_v out_o with_o worm_n our_o ear_n stop_v and_o our_o body_n crumble_v to_o dust_n and_o that_o we_o shall_v no_o long_o enjoy_v either_o the_o fruit_n of_o our_o labour_n or_o the_o benefit_n of_o those_o design_n we_o have_v lay_v for_o the_o

in_o this_o life_n and_o now_o if_o death_n upon_o this_o account_n be_v so_o melancholy_a a_o consideration_n if_o it_o damp_n our_o spirit_n and_o chill_v our_o blood_n to_o think_v of_o leave_v these_o body_n that_o we_o be_v so_o well_o accustom_a to_o and_o acquaint_v with_o and_o a_o world_n where_o we_o have_v so_o many_o interest_n and_o engagement_n and_o which_o we_o find_v so_o

to_o live_v without_o how_o much_o contentment_n shall_v it_o be_v to_o we_o to_o have_v a_o doctrine_n that_o assure_v we_o we_o shall_v live_v again_o in_o these_o body_n that_o we_o leave_v behind_o we_o when_o we_o go_v into_o the_o other_o world_n with_o so_o much_o reluctancy_n and_o unwillingness_n upon_o this_o account_n religion_n ought_v to_o be_v very_o dear_a to_o we_o and_o atheism_n look_v upon_o as_o the_o most_o uncomfortable_a opinion_n that_o can_v be_v thrust_v upon_o the_o world_n because_o among_o other_o mischief_n it_o deprive_v we_o of_o the_o hope_n of_o have_v our_o body_n restore_v to_o we_o again_o which_o be_v the_o most_o comfortable_a thing_n that_o a_o spirit_n which_o by_o the_o law_n of_o its_o creation_n be_v to_o live_v in_o a_o body_n can_v think_v of_o it_o must_v be_v a_o very_a uneasy_a thing_n for_o a_o atheist_n not_o only_o to_o think_v of_o leave_v this_o world_n but_o of_o lose_v his_o body_n which_o be_v the_o only_a part_n of_o he_o that_o he_o love_v for_o ever_o this_o man_n above_o all_o other_o must_v be_v extreme_o afflict_v with_o the_o thought_n of_o die_a because_o if_o his_o opinion_n be_v true_a he_o

who_o will_v not_o have_v life_n render_v unpleasant_a by_o any_o thing_n aught_o above_o all_o thing_n to_o startle_v and_o tremble_v at_o the_o thought_n of_o death_n as_o the_o great_a enemy_n to_o

know_v that_o the_o loss_n of_o this_o life_n be_v not_o the_o loss_n of_o all_o the_o life_n they_o hope_v for_o but_o now_o the_o atheist_n be_v so_o much_o wed_v to_o this_o life_n that_o he_o place_v all_o his_o happiness_n in_o the_o delight_n of_o it_o and_o care_v not_o to_o think_v of_o any_o other_o and_o therefore_o the_o thought_n of_o die_a must_v certain_o be_v very_o

think_v he_o shall_v die_v never_o to_o live_v more_o why_o be_v he_o so_o tender_a at_o all_o of_o life_n why_o do_v he_o seek_v out_o way_n to_o make_v it_o pleasant_a why_o do_v he_o not_o live_v in_o a_o continual_a neglect_n and_o contempt_n of_o it_o if_o it_o be_v so_o ridiculous_a a_o thing_n to_o live_v as_o he_o will_v persuade_v the_o world_n it_o be_v when_o he_o deride_v the_o

to_o make_v it_o his_o scorn_n he_o pretend_v to_o be_v a_o very_a great_a friend_n to_o life_n while_o he_o undertake_v to_o teach_v the_o world_n the_o best_a way_n of_o live_v and_o yet_o at_o the_o same_o time_n that_o he_o profess_v so_o much_o kindness_n and_o friendship_n for_o life_n his_o principle_n make_v he_o a_o perfect_a enemy_n to_o it_o he_o believe_v that_o there_o be_v no_o

because_o he_o will_v not_o have_v his_o life_n sour_v with_o ill-natured_a restraint_n as_o he_o believe_v they_o and_o yet_o because_o he_o be_v a_o atheist_n he_o can_v endure_v to_o hear_v of_o a_o life_n that_o be_v everlasting_a or_o of_o recover_v his_o life_n again_o when_o he_o have_v lose_v it_o and_o be_v it_o now_o a_o wise_a thing_n to_o be_v a_o atheist_n when_o every_o one_o

much_o as_o he_o do_v especial_o when_o we_o consider_v it_o be_v for_o the_o sake_n of_o life_n that_o he_o choose_v to_o believe_v as_o he_o do_v why_o be_v life_n so_o precious_a a_o thing_n to_o
