Are not you yet satisfied with these words of him that is able, and can, and faithful, and will, do what he saith, reaching to every one, without the losing of any one? The Father that sent me, hath declared his Will that I should, and so I will raise every one of these at the last day. Believe, and sorrow for your Dead with no more degrees of Sorrow than becometh one that doth believe that Christ will raise them up at the last day. John 11.24. Martha said to him, I know that he shall rise again, in the Resurrection at the last day: 25. Jesus said unto her, I am the Resurrection and the Life, he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live. John 6.44. No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me, draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day. 54. Whoso eateth my Flesh, and drinketh my Blood, hath Eternal ⟨p. 164⟩life, and I will raise him up at the last day, 1 Cor. 15. throughout. Rev. 20.12. And I saw the Dead small and great stand before God — 13. And the Sea gave up the dead which were in it, and Death and Hell [or the Grave] delivered up the d•ad which were in them. Now the Grave and Death hold your Relations that are under their Power fast, so fast that now there is no help, and you therefore sorrow; but the day will come, when Death and the Grave shall deliver them up, and hold them no longer; here is matter of Hope, therefore do not sorrow as those that have no Hope.
