earnest? Yea, surely; if you will not believe me, "behold the place
where they laid him." This scripture is very clear to our purpose.

But again, in Matt. 28: 3-7, there is an angel as before bearing
witness of the resurrection of Jesus. "His countenance was like
lightning, and his raiment white as snow. And for fear of him the
keepers did shake, and became as dead men. And the angel answered
and said unto them," the women who came to seek Jesus, "Fear you
not; but let them that seek to keep the Lord in his grave fear if
they will, for you have no ground of fear who seek the Jesus that
was crucified: he is not here, he is risen; he cannot be here, in
body, and risen too: if you will not believe me, come, see where the
Lord lay. And go quickly and tell his disciples that he is risen
from the dead; and behold, he goeth before you into Galilee, there
shall you see him." But shall we be sure of it? "Yea," saith the
angel; "lo, it is I that have told you." See how plainly this
scripture also doth testify of Christ's resurrection. "Here," saith
the angel, "you seek a Saviour, and none will content you but he,
even the same that was crucified: well, you shall have him, but he
is not here." Why, where is he then? "He is risen from the dead."
But are you sure it is the same that we look for? "Yea, it is the
same that was crucified." But where shall we find him? Why, "he
goeth before you into Galilee, where he used to be in his lifetime,
before he was crucified. And that you might be sure of it there to
find him, know that he is an angel of God that has told you."
