Qu. 2. But what shall the creatures have in the day of Christ they have Quest. 2 not now? Answ. 1First, they shall have freedom from all the former bondage and vanity. Secondly, they shall be delivered into the liberty of the sons of God, that is, they shall have a most excellent estate, when the children of God are glorified. Wherein the Lord shows his justice, in that the creature shall have restitution for what is lost by man. Ob. 2But shall there be a resurrection of creatures as well as men? Sol. 3No, for this restitution shall be made in specie, not in individuo. 1. Not to every particular of every kind or sort, but to the sort or kind of all creatures: and that shall be done to the creatures then found in their several sorts.
