And how great a mistery this is may appeare in that they that are seperated from Gods presence are seperated from all ioy and pleasure, betwéene which and extreame sorow and misery there is no meane, for in Gods presence (and not else where) is fullnesse of ioy, and at his right hand (and no where else to be found) are pleasures for euermore: and for this cause our Sauiour Christ accounteth it the greatest happinesse of the pure in heart that they shall see God, and Cain accounteth it not, the least iudgment that should befall him héere on earth, that he should bee hid from the face of God. It 〈 ◊ 〉 were so greiuous to Cain to be seperated from the place of Gods worship héere on earth, which is but a tipe of the seperation in the life to come, oh how greiuous then must it néedes bée to the damned in the life to come, to be indéed excluded from the glory of God, and happinesse of the glorified.
And how great a mystery this is may appear in that they that Are separated from God's presence Are separated from all joy and pleasure, between which and extreme sorrow and misery there is no mean, for in God's presence (and not Else where) is fullness of joy, and At his right hand (and no where Else to be found) Are pleasures for evermore: and for this cause our Saviour christ accounteth it the greatest happiness of the pure in heart that they shall see God, and Cain accounteth it not, the least judgement that should befall him Here on earth, that he should be hid from the face of God. It 〈 ◊ 〉 were so grievous to Cain to be separated from the place of God's worship Here on earth, which is but a tipe of the separation in the life to come, o how grievous then must it needs been to the damned in the life to come, to be indeed excluded from the glory of God, and happiness of the glorified.
