Now
when
they
are
Paid
to
be railed
up
in
Chrift,
it
may be
under-
ftood both
wayes,
both
in
regard
of
their refurre&ion;
as it
was made
in
Chrift the
Head
of
them ;
and
as
it was
in
part
applied
in
them
:
For
all the refurre' tion
we have
in
Chrift,
is
not yet
received
,
we have
it
by
faith hid
in
him even the refurre&ion
of
our bodies.
As
Adam was
a
roote
of
death to
all
that were
his
,
neither were they borne
of
him
fooner then mortality
did
feife
on them
:
So
Chrift
is a
roote
of
refar-
redion,
t.
Cor.
15. 22.
As
in
Adam all die, fo
in
Chrifl Jball all
be
made
alive.
We
muff
not
rhinke
that
when
Chrift
was
railed,
it
was no
more
then when La7ares,
or
Tome
other
private perfon was railed,
but
his
rilingwas
all
our refurre6lions,
in
afmuch
as
it
was
in
the name
of
us
all, and had
in
it
a
fede
-like
virtue to worke the
refurretion of
us
all.
Hence it
commeth that
we no
boomer
come to be
in
him,.
but
the power
of
his
refurrecîion
is
felt
of
us, making
us
rife
to
newneffe
of
life:
in
Chrift
all
things
are
new, z.
Cor.
5. 17.
Who
hash learned
Chrift
as
the
traeth
is in Chrift,
have
fo learned
him
that they
are dead
to
finne
the
life
of
the old man,
and arc alive
in
the
life
of
grace.
For
Tooke
as
a
member truely by inward ligaments
knit
with
a li-
ving
Head, hath
life in
it:
fo
we when we come to
be
in
Chrift
, railed
up
and living
to God
in
life
glorious, we cannot but
live
in
him.
There
are
Tome
Principali evidences
of
our part
in

re6lion.

The
Spirit given
us
:
If
the
Spirit
which
raifed Chrift
our
Lord
from
the dead
dwell
in
you;
He
doeth
fend into them
that
are
united
with
him
the
fpirit
of
life
fromhimfelfe; thatis,the Ho-
ly Ghoft to
dwell
in
them
by
the
created gifts
of
grace, which
is life
fupernaturall;
They
fluff
heare my voyce who
are
dead,
that
is,
they
(hall
beleeve and
fhall
live.

The
will
of
the Father touching
us,
that Chrift

us

The
name
made
by Chrift,
in
which we have
it
, even
before
it
be applied
:
Chrift doeth
fucceflively perfer
t
this life, never
leaving till he have
in
foule and
body conformed
us
for our
module to
his
blefled
foule and
glorious
body.
The
raifing
of

raife a
Churchyard
of
bodies.

Wherefore let
