I forbear to show the particulars of the glory of the body: the Apostle Paul sets it down, 1 Cor. 15. It shall be a spiritual body: it 1shall be guided by the Spirit, and the body, it shall not then need meats and drinks, but God shall be all in all. Now, our life at the best is fed and clothed by the creatures, then, all shall be taken out of God himself, God himself shall be All in all. The presence of God, and of Christ our Saviour shall supply all that we have now other ways.

So we shall be glorious in soul and body.
