And thus much for the places of the old testament, now we will allege those places of the new. First, let us consider of the words wherewith our Saviour Christ confu•eth the Sadducees: Math. 22. 32. I am the God of Abraham, of Isaac and of Jacob. God cannot be said to be the God of Abraham being dead, except he raise his body again, which he hath in keeping, as well as his soul. For he saith not I am the God of Abraham's soul, but I am the God of Abraham, the God of his whole man: wherefore it must needs be that Abraham must rise again. M•t. 25. 31. When the Son of man cometh in his glory, and all the holy Angels with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory. Likewise Luke 14. 13. When thou makest a feast, call the poor, the maimed, the l•me▪ and the blind, 14. And thou shalt be blessed, because they cannot recompense thee, for thou shalt be recompensed at the resurrection of the just As if our Saviour Christ should say, although thou mayest think, that all the things thus given are lost here, yet there cometh a time when thou shalt reap the recompense plentifully, and have thy reward with the just, Joh. 5. 28. 29 The Lord showeth the resurrection of both estates and willeth them not to marvel, that he should raise their souls to life, which would raise their bodies from death. •8. Marvel not at this, saith he, for the hour shall come, i. the which all that are in the graves shall hear the voice of the Son of man. •9. And they so•ll come forth that have •••: good, unto the resurrection of life, but they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of condemnation. Joh. 11. Martha (as we showed before) plainly testifieth of the resurrection, and confesseth her faith therein. Act. 3. 19
