5. What are the Characters of those men and women,1 whose vile bodies shall be made like unto the glorious body of Christ?
- 1Quest. 5.
1. There is one Character of them in the text:1 If thou art one that hast thy conversation in Heaven, then thy body shall be made glorious: For our conversation is in Heaven, from whence also we look for a Saviour the Lord Jesus Christ, who shall change our vile bodies, and make them like to his glorious body, &c. If thou beest a man that mindest earthly things; if ambitious, covetous or voluptuous; if given over to fulfil the lusts of ⟨p. 19⟩the flesh, thy body shall rise, but it shall rise to everlasting condemnation: But if heavenly-minded; if thy disposition and conversation be heavenly, when Christ comes from Heaven, he will make thy body heavenly and glorious.
