To all which I say, 1. Whether or how far an invisible spiritual Body is present, sense is no judge; nor can we know any further than Gods word telleth us. 2. That Christ in his Glorified soul and Body is our Intercessor with God, through whom we have all things, we must not doubt. 3. That Christ in his Humane and Divine Nature now in Heaven, is that Teacher who hath left us a certain word, and that King who hath left us a perfect Law of Life, whom we must obey, and a promise which we must trust, we must not question. 4. That the Holy Ghost who is our spiritual Life, is given us by, from and for Christ our Mediator, we must take for certain truth.

But, though in all these respects, Faith apprehendeth and liveth upon Christ, yet that moreover his Glorified Body in substance, either feedeth or by contact purifieth our Bodies, and his sensitive soul, our sensitive souls, and his Intellectual soul, our Intellectual souls, as if in ⟨p. 149⟩themselves, and not in their effects only they were thus communicated to us, I understand not, either by any just conception of the thing it self, or any proof of it from the word of God. But if any can help me to see it, I shall not refuse instruction.
