- 1A third word of Comfort
Our gracious Relations are not alone in their Death; The Captain of their Salvation did march before them, through those black Regions of Death and the Grave, Jesus died; this is implied in the following words, If we believe that Jesus died: This is a third consolatory Argument, and it carrieth in it strong consolation. Our sweet Relations in dying, run no other hazard, than Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob did, no other hazard, than all the Patriarchs. and Prophets, and Apostles did, in their generations, they all died, and were resolved into their first dust.
Our gratious Relations are not alone in their Death; The Captain of their Salvation did march before them, through those black Regions of Death and the Grave, Jesus died; this is implied in the following words, If we believe that Jesus died: This is a third consolatory Argument, and it carryeth in it strong consolation. Our sweet Relations in dying, run no other hazard, than Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob did, no other hazard, than all the Patriarchs. and Prophets, and Apostles did, in their generations, they all died, and were resolved into their first dust.
Yea, what shall I say? They run no other hazard, than the Lord of all the Patriarchs, Prophets and Apostles did, Jesus died; this is wonderful indeed, the Lord of Life died! The eternal Son of God was laid in the Grave!
