Verse 17. Then we which are alive and remain, shall be caught up together with them in the Clouds, &c.
Here, we have a further instance of the Saints Conformity unto Christ in the Resurrection. Christ himself when he was risen did Ascend; He was carried up into Heaven: So shall it be with the Saints, when they are raised up out of their beds of dust, they shall be caught up into the Clouds; they shall Ascend to meet their Lord.
And this Ascension, according to the Analogy of Scripture, we may conceive, shall be effected by a Three-fold medium, 1Scil. 1. The Power of Christ. 2. The Ministry of the Angels, 3. The Spirituality of the Saints own bodies.
