1. The Bodies of Believers shall be raised up to Glory. The Doctrine of the Resurrection is a Fundamental Article of our Faith; the Apostle puts it among the Principles of the Doctrine of Christ, Heb. 6.2. The Body shall rise again; we ⟨p. 235⟩are not so sure to rise out of our Beds, as we are to rise out of our Graves. The saved Body shall arise again. Some hold that the Soul shall be clothed with a new Body; but then it were improper to call it a Resurrection, it should be rather a Creation, Job 19.26. Though worms destroy this body, yet in my flesh shall I see God. Not in another flesh, but my flesh. 1 Cor. 15.53. This corruptible shall put on incorruption.
