your_o sight_n let_v your_o sight_n be_v judge_n the_o arbitration_n of_o your_o sight_n shall_v satisfy_v you_o come_v and_o see_v he_o be_v not_o here_o though_o they_o lay_v he_o here_o he_o be_v not_o here_o here_o be_v the_o argument_n of_o the_o angel_n but_o here_o they_o will_v tell_v we_o he_o pass_v by_o man_n out_o of_o company_n to_o avoid_v danger_n and_o they_o see_v he_o not_o this_o be_v truth_n but_o this_o be_v not_o all_o the_o truth_n for_o the_o reason_n why_o they_o see_v he_o not_o it_o be_v because_o their_o eye_n be_v hold_v that_o they_o can_v not_o see_v how_o many_o of_o you_o now_o see_v this_o pulpit_n and_o yet_o wink_v with_o your_o eye_n you_o can_v see_v it_o be_v this_o pulpit_n ere_o the_o less_o visible_a because_o you_o do_v not_o see_v it_o when_o man_n eye_n be_v hold_v they_o can_v see_v christ_n body_n notwithstanding_o be_v visible_a still_o to_o be_v see_v and_o now_o to_o confirm_v this_o that_o i_o have_v say_v unto_o you_o st._n john_n himself_o shall_v make_v it_o good_a there_o be_v one_o of_o the_o disciple_n say_v he_o john_n 20._o and_o he_o speak_v of_o himself_o the_o other_o disciple_n he_o look_v into_o the_o

and_o indeed_o it_o have_v be_v a_o mockery_n of_o these_o woman_n for_o the_o angel_n if_o their_o eye_n be_v hold_v to_o bid_v they_o to_o see_v without_o their_o sight_n therefore_o you_o have_v the_o first_o point_n concern_v this_o sense_n of_o see_v sufficient_o demonstrate_v unto_o you_o come_v to_o our_o saviour_n christ_n as_o the_o angel_n say_v to_o the_o woman_n come_v and_o see_v so_o christ_n he_o say_v to_o his_o disciple_n come_v and_o feel_v feel_v i_o be_o i_o this_o body_n be_v i_o feel_v my_o body_n search_v the_o wound_n etc._n etc._n so_o that_o now_o christ_n make_v this_o truth_n even_o palpable_a unto_o they_o that_o they_o may_v have_v their_o faith_n from_o the_o virtue_n of_o their_o own_o finger_n this_o be_v the_o doctrine_n of_o christ_n the_o body_n of_o christ_n be_v palpable_o to_o be_v see_v come_v unto_o our_o faith_n the_o council_n of_o ephesus_n one_o of_o the_o first_o counsel_n in_o the_o christian_a world_n for_o the_o humane_a nature_n of_o christ_n resolve_v thus_o corpus_fw-la christi_fw-la est_fw-la &_o visibile_fw-la &_o palpabile_fw-la ubicunque_fw-la fuerit_fw-la the_o body_n of_o christ_n it_o be_v visible_a and_o tractable_a wheresoever_o it_o be_v therefore_o may_v we_o come_v now_o to_o our_o resolution_n and_o conclude_v that_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n in_o the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o mass_n you_o say_v it_o be_v invisible_a i_o say_v then_o it_o be_v not_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n do_v you_o say_v it_o be_v impalpable_a it_o be_v not_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n do_v you_o say_v also_o it_o be_v both_o visible_a and_o invisible_a i_o return_v to_o the_o father_n and_o they_o say_v thus_o this_o be_v say_v they_o sottish_a why_o you_o may_v as_o well_o say_v that_o the_o same_o body_n of_o christ_n can_v be_v finite_a and_o infinite_a it_o can_v be_v create_v and_o not_o create_v at_o once_o which_o the_o distinction_n of_o place_n can_v never_o reconcile_v oh_o but_o say_v they_o unto_o we_o this_o be_v natural_a reason_n this_o be_v reason_v like_o ethnic_n and_o pagan_n nay_o we_o have_v the_o authority_n which_o be_v the_o authority_n of_o the_o catholic_n church_n we_o have_v the_o authority_n angelical_a we_o have_v not_o only_o the_o authority_n evangelical_n but_o of_o christ_n himself_o he_o be_v not_o here_o etc._n etc._n thus_o i_o have_v show_v that_o he_o be_v palpable_a wheresoever_o he_o be_v now_o the_o evidence_n be_v thus_o plain_a let_v we_o ascend_v a_o little_a high_o to_o know_v that_o what_o if_o some_o shall_v say_v that_o notwithstanding_o these_o evidence_n i_o doubt_v whether_o this_o doctrine_n be_v true_a or_o no_o that_o christ_n be_v rise_v our_o apostle_n saint_n paul_n have_v answer_v this_o argument_n long_o ago_o when_o he_o say_v thus_o if_o that_o christ_n be_v not_o rise_v we_o be_v false_a witness_n as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v a_o thing_n most_o incredible_a for_o they_o which_o be_v with_o our_o lord_n and_o saviour_n and_o see_v and_o hear_v and_o feel_v he_o be_v always_o ready_a to_o lay_v down_o their_o life_n for_o christ_n and_o for_o this_o very_a article_n he_o be_v rise_v there_o saint_n paul_n speak_v for_o himself_o if_o christ_n be_v not_o rise_v what_o shall_v it_o advantage_v i_o that_o i_o fight_v with_o beast_n at_o ephesus_n after_o the_o manner_n of_o man_n to_o endanger_v my_o life_n for_o this_o article_n christ_n be_v rise_v and_o this_o be_v that_o paul_n that_o can_v say_v of_o himself_o 1_o cor._n 10._o that_o among_o all_o those_o many_o trouble_n and_o affliction_n for_o this_o profession_n in_o carcere_fw-la etc._n etc._n i_o be_v in_o death_n often_o oftentimes_o leave_v for_o dead_a stone_v and_o persecute_v so_o manifold_a a_o martyr_n be_v this_o one_o saint_n paul_n he_o speak_v also_o of_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o apostle_n 1_o cor._n 5._o we_o be_v in_o jeopardy_n every_o day_n every_o day_n in_o jeopardy_n even_o for_o this_o article_n and_o this_o truth_n that_o christ_n be_v rise_v he_o stand_v upon_o in_o that_o 1_o cor._n 15._o well_o then_o belove_v for_o the_o establish_n of_o our_o christian_a faith_n in_o this_o one_o point_n certain_o these_o apostle_n of_o christ_n have_v be_v most_o shameless_a if_o they_o have_v publish_v to_o all_o that_o which_o they_o see_v not_o most_o faithless_a if_o they_o have_v not_o believe_v that_o which_o they_o all_o see_v most_o heartless_a if_o they_o have_v not_o venture_v their_o life_n for_o the_o profession_n of_o that_o the_o resurrection_n of_o christ_n from_o the_o dead_a by_o virtue_n whereof_o their_o body_n shall_v also_o be_v reserve_v to_o eternal_a life_n and_o most_o foolish_a also_o if_o they_o shall_v have_v spend_v their_o blood_n for_o that_o they_o believe_v not_o they_o have_v thus_o see_v thus_o hear_v thus_o believe_v thus_o preach_v thus_o die_v and_o suffer_v death_n they_o may_v be_v eye_n and_o have_v be_v to_o the_o christian_a world_n to_o see_v by_o their_o faith_n and_o so_o i_o persuade_v myself_o of_o you_o all_o that_o be_v here_o present_a to_o give_v faith_n unto_o this_o article_n of_o the_o resurrection_n of_o christ_n from_o death_n and_o therefore_o i_o be_o authorise_v to_o give_v unto_o you_o the_o benediction_n which_o christ_n give_v unto_o such_o as_o you_o say_v bless_a be_v they_o that_o see_v not_o and_o yet_o believe_v and_o so_o bless_v be_v you_o now_o you_o have_v hear_v the_o evidence_n this_o be_v a_o evident_a truth_n we_o have_v not_o yet_o hear_v the_o power_n of_o it_o but_o that_o be_v in_o the_o next_o part_n wherein_o i_o say_v that_o this_o be_v a_o truth_n which_o be_v omnipotent_a a_o omnipotent_a truth_n look_v to_o our_o text_n i_o but_o say_v the_o evangelist_n he_o be_v rise_v he_o do_v not_o say_v agarthes_n he_o be_v raise_v but_o he_o be_v rise_v and_o because_o it_o be_v he_o that_o raise_v himself_o from_o the_o dead_a it_o be_v he_o that_o say_v i_o have_v power_n to_o lay_v down_o my_o

appearance_n of_o god_n a_o mighty_a god_n and_o of_o our_o lord_n and_o saviour_n jesus_n christ_n here_o you_o see_v that_o our_o salvation_n depend_v upon_o these_o triplicite_a virtue_n again_o saint_n paul_n 1_o cor._n 13._o say_v thus_o there_o be_v the_o three_o faith_n hope_n and_o charity_n what_o have_v these_o to_o do_v with_o the_o resurrection_n certain_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o

and_o he_o that_o believe_v this_o do_v believe_v he_o shall_v rise_v the_o next_o to_o faith_n be_v charity_n of_o this_o st._n john_n speak_v we_o know_v we_o be_v translate_v from_o death_n to_o

that_o be_v the_o resurrection_n of_o the_o body_n to_o be_v better_a than_o all_o the_o torment_n and_o affliction_n the_o world_n can_v lay_v upon_o they_o sure_o belove_v we_o can_v look_v for_o

with_o he_o so_o much_o for_o our_o hope_n the_o second_o point_n be_v this_o that_o our_o first_o resurrection_n require_v that_o our_o worship_n and_o service_n unto_o god_n in_o holiness_n be_v as_o well_o perform_v in_o body_n as_o in_o soul_n thus_o the_o apostle_n 1_o cor._n 1.6_o glorify_v god_n in_o your_o body_n and_o soul_n you_o be_v buy_v with_o a_o price_n glorify_v god_n with_o
