2 Corinthians4:16
16 For which cause we [illegible: 1 letter]aint not , but though our outward man perish n, yet the inward man is renewed day by day o.
Because of this double advantage which accrueth from our sufferings, viz. The furthering of the good of your Souls, and the promoting the glory of God from the thanksgivings of many, though we suffer many harsh and bitter things, yet we do not faint nor sink under the burden of our Trials; but though as to our outward man, we are every day dying persons, daily decaying as to the strength, and vigour, and prosperity of our outward man, yet the strength and comfort of our Souls and Spirits reneweth day by day; we are every day stronger and stronger as to the managing of our spiritual fight, and every day more cheered and comforted in our holy course.
