4. Their everlasting habitation shall be in the Heavens, even near unto God, and in the presence of his Glory.
5. Their company will be only Blessed Spirits, even the holy Angels and glorified Saints, with whom we shall be One Body, and constitute the New Jerusalem, and be perfectly one in God for ever.
6. Their Bodies shall be perfected and made immortal, spiritual, incorruptible and glorious bodies, shining as the Stars in the Celestial Firmament: No more subject to hunger, and thirst, or cold, or weariness, or shame, or pain, nor any of the frailties that now adhere unto them, but be made like the glorified body of Christ.
7. The Souls of the Saints united to these Bodies shall also be Perfected, having far larger capacity to know God and enjoy him then now we have; being freed from all ignorance, error, unbelief, pride, hard-heartedness, and whatsoever sin doth now accompany us; and perfected in every part of the Image of God upon us.
