Modern spelling is a reading aid: the words are the author’s, only the spelling is modernized. Original shows the page as printed, with the transcription marks.
The words are of a twofold consideration, sc. Absolute, And Relative.
The absolute and positive, holds forth a main Article of our Faith, sc. Christ's last coming to judgment in person. The Lord himself shall descend from Heaven.
The Relative; and so they are a confirmation of this comfortable truth; They which are alive, and remain unto the coming of the Lord, shall not prevent them which are asleep, and why so? For, the Lord himself shall descend, &c.
In their absolute sense, the words are, (as I say) a main Article of our Faith, concerning Christ's coming to judgment in person, and therefore may justly challenge their room, to ⟨p. 70⟩make up one entire and distinct word of Comfort in this divine context.
