For if we believe, that Jesus is dead, and is risen: that he was delivered to death for our sins, and is risen again for our justification: if we believe that he is ascended up into heaven, and sitteth at the right hand of GOD his father: he will also raise up our mortal bodies, and bring us with him. Now Christ is risen from the dead, and was 1made the first fruits of them that sleep. He is our head, we are his body: We are flesh of his flesh, and bone of his bone. He hath given us his Spirit to dwell in us. But if any man hath not the 2Spirit of Christ, the same is not his. Christ our head liveth. His body then can not ⟨p. 169⟩he dead, Where I am, sayeth he, there shall 3also my servant be. Wherefore if we be dead with Christ, we believe that we shall live also with him.
For if wee beleeue, that Iesus is dead, and is risen: that he was deliuered to death for our sinnes, and is risen againe for our iustification: if we beléeue that he is ascended vp into heauen, and sitteth at the right hand of GOD his father: he will also raise vp our mortall bodies, and bring vs with him. Nowe Christ is risen from the dead, and was 1made the firste fruites of them that sleepe. He is our head, wée are his bodie: Wee are flesh of his flesh, and bone of his bone. Hée hath giuen vs his Spirite to dwell in vs. But if anie man hath not the 2Spirite of Christ, the same is not his. Christ our head liueth. His bodie then can not ⟨p. 169⟩he dead, Where I am, sayeth he, there shall 3also my seruaunt be. Wherefore if we be dead with Christ, we beleeue that wee shal liue also with him.
