Q. 8. Here are many things set together, I pray you tell them me distinctly.
A. 1. Heaven is a perfect Glorious Place, and Earth to it is a Dungeon. The Sun which we see is a Glorious place in comparison of this.
2. The whole Society of Angels and Saints will be Perfect and Glorious. And our Joy and Glory will be as much in participation by Union and Communion ⟨p. 169⟩with theirs, as the Life and Health of the Eye, or Hand is in and by union and communion with the Body: we must not dream of any Glory to our selves but in a state of that union and communion with the Glorious Body of Christ. And Christ himself the Glorified Head is the chief part of this Society whose Glory we shall behold.
