There
are
certain
sober
Professors
of
Christianity
,
who
,
tho
they
deny
the
Existence
of
the
Soul
separate
from
the
Body
,
yet
they
maintain
the
Resurrection
of
the
whole
Man
at
the
Last
Day
,
to
receive
Recompences
according
to
their
deservings
in
this
life
:
Is
not
that
sufficient
to
uphold
Religion
and
a
due
Reverence
of
God
in
the
World
?
There
are
some
Professors
among
us
who
deny
the
Resurrection
of
the
Body
,
as
some
of
the
Quakers
are
said
to
do
;
but
yet
believe
the
Returning
of
the
Spirit
to
God
who
gave
it
:
and
then
concludes
,
That
between
one
of
these
Opinions
and
the
other
,
all
Recompences
future
to
this
life
,
may
come
to
be
discredited
and
exploded
.
The
Resurrection
of
the
Dead
Having
sometimes
found
my
own
mind
hopled
and
troublesomely
intangled
,
with
the
perplexity
of
conceiving
how
my
Soul
could
possibly
exist
in
a
separate
state
from
my
Body
,
to
which
I
〈…〉
so
strictly
united
;
and
with
which
I
found
it
by
experience
so
much
so
sympathize
in
this
its
union
.
That
he
believed
divers
others
might
be
troubled
with
the
like
doubtings
His
Mind
in
this
Treatise
,
is
to
confirm
the
faith
of
those
who
believe
the
Souls
Immortality
,
or
to
raise
up
those
that
are
fallen
into
the
doubts
and
scruples
before
mentioned
;
of
which
sort
he
was
informed
there
are
not
a
few
among
the
otherwise
serious
Professors
of
Christianity
in
who
notwithstanding
such
scruples
,
might
pass
with
our
Author
,
for
good
Christians
:
Besides
such
doubters
,
there
are
other
men
in
who
do
not
only
with
you
deny
the
possibility
of
the
Souls
Seperate
subsistence
,
but
do
also
deny
,
the
being
of
any
sort
of
Spirits
whatsoever
.
There

There
are
other
men
,
who
with
you
deny
the
probability
of

:
with
you
Men
cannot
be
certain
that
Souls
do
not
subsist
in
a
state
of
separation
after
Death
,
or
that
they
are
not
in
a
state
of
happiness

misery

Resurrection
.
rather

endeavouring

the

in
this
Question
I
conceive
some
who
embrace
the
Opinion
of
the
Souls

,
may
be
otherways

Christians
,
and
are
by
this
Opinion

when

down
with
melancholy

to

that
at
death
she
shall
be
turned
into
sensless
stupid
dust
,
she
strait

sad
and
affrighted

and
then
upon
the
consideration
of

,
she
clears
up
her

receives
great
comfort

This
confidence
of

is
so
appropriate
to
the
wisest
and
best
of
men
,
as
it
seems
an
absurd
suggestion
,
that
it
should
have
risen
from

plainly

that
they
do

likewise
in
Immortality

That

what

but
we
know
,
that
when

shall
appear
,
we
shall
be
like
him
:
Whilst
the
Spirit
of
Man
continues
its
Conflicts
with
the
Flesh
,
and
the
Lusts
thereof
,
(
as
she
will
whilst
she
abides
in
the

)
it
is
needful
to
maintain
in
her
the
Thoughts
of

It
continues
that
Conflict
with
the
Flesh
,
and
the
Lusts
thereof
,
as
it
will
whilst
she
abides
in
the
Body
,
and
therefore
it
is
needful
to
maintain
in
her
,
high
Thoughts
of

That
She
,
his

Spirit
,
will
continue
her
Conflict

so
long
as
she

there
is
no
Truth

than
the
Belief
of

Can
any
hearty
Lover
of
the
Lord
Jesus
,
think
of
the
Interruption
of
his
Communion
with
him
,
from
Death
to
Judgment
,
without
great
Regret
and
Trouble
of
Mind
?
He
is
sure
the
Generation
of
the
Righteous
think
it
much
otherwise
.
That
the
Generation
of
the
Righteous
,
may
think
,
some
one
thing
,
and
some
another
;
and
thereupon
I
conceive
,
that
divers
of
them
will
be
very
well
contented
with
such
a
Portion
of
Happiness
,
as
the
Spirit
in
the
Revelation
tells
us
they
shall
enjoy
,
in
the
Words
;
Yea
,
saith
the
Spirit
,
they
rest
from
their
Labours
,
and
their
Works
do
follow
them
;
and
at
the
end
of
that
,
Rest
shall
overtake
them
,
and
be
joined
again
to
them
,
at
the
end
and
time
of
their
intended
Resurrection
.
Is
this
enough
to
quiet
the
fervent
Longings
of
the
Divine
Nature
in

to
satisfie
our

Hope

is
this
?
Non

A

the

with

:
Deliver
me

The
word
Soul
sometimes
signifies
some
one
Power
of
the
Sensative
Soul
,
as
the
Breath
of
Man
or
Beast
;
and
sometimes
for
some
single
Power
of
the
Rational
Soul
,
which
I
think
he
should
have
termed
some
single
Power
of
the
Mind
,
or
of
the
Man
:
Men
are
not
able
to
kill
the
Soul
.
That
the
Soul
which
is
now
plainly
alive
,
while
in
our
Bodies
,
shall
never
cease
to
live
,
or
be
annihilated
.
I
shall
now
lay
down
Five
Propositions
,
which
I
conceive
have
a
great
Tendency
to
Clear
up
this
great
Truth
[
Of
the
Soul's
Immortality
.
]
The
First
wherof
is
this
,
That
the
Soul
and
Body
of
Man
,
are
not
one
and
the
same
Being
,
but
are
Beings
really
distinct
:
Because
,
they
were
created
one
after
the
other
,
and
not
at
one
and
the
same
time
.
The
Lord
God
formed
man
of
the
dust
of
the
ground
,
and
breathed
into
his
nostrils
the
breath
of
life
,
and
man
became
a
living
soul
.

of

,
and
breathed
into

,
and
man
became
a
living
person
.
God
breathed
into
his
nostrils
the
breath
of
life
,
and
by
breathing
that
breath
into
him
,
he
became
a
living
person

Gen.
God
made
the
beast
of

after

kind
,
and
cattle
after

kind

and
every
thing
that
creepeth
upon
the
earth
after
their
kind
,
as
he
had
before
created
great
whales
and
fishes
in
the
water
,
and
fowls
to
flye
in
the
midst
of
Heaven
.
Yea
,
they
have
all
one
breath
.
That
all
in
whose
nostrils
the
breath
of
life
was
,
died
in
that
flood
.
They
came
together
,
bone
to
his
bone

loe
,
the
sinews
,
and
flesh
came
up
upon
them
,
and
then
the
skin
covered
them
above
;
but
there
was
no
breath
in
them
.
and
say
,
come
from
the
four
winds
,
O
breath
,
and
breathe
upon
these
slain
,
that
they
may
live
.
and
the
breath
came
into
them
,
and
they
lived
,
and
stood
up
upon
their
feet
an
exceeding
great
Army
.
I
pray
God
,
your
Spirit
,
Soul
and
Body
,
be
preserved

My
Departure
out
of
this
World
is
at
hand
,

henceforth
there
is
laid
up
for
me
a
Crown
of
Righteousness

the
Lord
Jesus
,
the
Righteous
Judge
,
shall
give
me
at
that
day
;
and
not
to
me
only
,
but
to
them
also
that
love
his
Appearing

Then
shall
they
see
the
Son
of
Man
coming
in
a
Cloud
,
with
Power
,
and
great
Glory
;
and
when
those
things
begin

come
to
pass

look
up
,

lift
up
your
Heads

for
your
Redemption

my
Fathers
House

many
Mansions

I
go
to
prepare
a
Place

you

if
I
go
and
prepare
a
Place
for
you
,
I
will
come
again

receive
you
to
my self

where
I
am

you
may
be
there
also

God
the

hath
committed
all
Judgment

Mervail
not
at
this
for
the
time
is
coming
,
in
which
,
all
that
are
in
the
Graves
shall
hear
his
Voice

and
shall
come
forth
;
they
that
have
done
good
,

the
Resurrection
of
Life

they
that

done
evil

to
God
that
gave
it

That
whoso
doth
his
Will

and
keep
his
Commandments
,
he
will
raise
them
up
at
the
last
day
,
When

call
the
Poor

the
Maimed

the
Lame

thou

for
they

for

they
would
not
accept

manner

unto
the
coming

Lord
The
Lord
cometh
with
Ten
Thousand
of
his
Saints
,
to
execute
Judgment
upon
all
the
Vngodly

Ye
are
bought
with
a
Price
,
therefore
glorifie
God
in
your
Body
,
and
in
your
Spirit
,
which
are
Men
that
can
kill
the
Body
,
are
not
able
to
kill
the
Soul
.
Dearly
beloved
,
let
us
cleanse
our selves
from
all
filthiness
of
the
Flesh
,
and
of
the
Spirit
.
The
flesh
lusteth
against
the
spirit
,
and
the
spirit
against
the
flesh
,
and
these
are
contrary
the
one
to
the
other
.
The
Texts
which
I
have
already
quoted
,
are
abundantly
sufficient
for
the
Proof
of
my
first
Proposition
.
That
the
Soul
was
of
a
quite
different
nature
from
the
Body
,
That
the
Soul
was
an
Immortal
Intelligent
Spirit
,
which
can
subsist
by
it self
,
and
in
a
state
of
seperation
from
the
Body
,
and
the
Body
it self
,
but
a
Compositum
of
Dust
and
Ashes
,
into
which
it
shall
be
again
resolved
,
soon
after
the
Death
of
the
Person
.
That
the
Soul
is
a
seperable
intelligent
Spirit
,
and
of
a
quite
different
Nature
from
the
Body
.
That
the
Soul
and
Body
are
not
only
Two
in
number
,
but
that
they
are
two
Beings
of
a
very
different
Nature
.
That
the
Soul
was
immediately
created
by
God
.
The
Body
and
all
its
Parts
,
are
but
lifeless
,
senseless
things
,
in
themselves
:
The
Body
is
often
tired
,
and
spent
,
and
indisposed
to
Action
,
when
at
the
same
time
the
Soul
hath
a
Will
,
and
is
bent
to
Action
.
viz.
That
the
Spirits
working
in
his
Brain
,
and
moving
his
Affections
and
Will
,
may
continue
their
Working
and
Vigour
▪
in
that
Part
,
longer
than
in
the
outward
,
and
more
rem●t
Parts
of
the
Body
.
And
this
is
that
which
our
Lord
▪
I
think
,
intended
,
when
he
said
,
The
Body
is
very
frequently
〈◊〉
a
very
sick
,
weak
,
languishing
Condition
,
when
the
〈…〉
as
good
a
plight
,
and
sometimes
better
,
than
when
the
〈…〉
most
healthy
and
strong
;
surely
if
their
Natures
did
not
v●●●ly
differ
,
they
would
be
sick
and
well
together
.
The
Soul
and
Body
are
not
sick
and
well
together
:
Gains
,
I
wish
above
all
things
,
that
thou
maist
prosper
,
and
be
in
health
,
even
as
thy
Soul
prospereth
.
Even
as
thy
soul

I
see
another
Law
in
my
Members
,
warring
against
the
Law
of
my
Mind
.
Abstain
from
fleshly
Lusts
,
which
war
against
the
Soul
:
That
the
Soul
and
Body
,
as
they
are
Two
Beings
,
distinct
in
Number
,
so
are
they
in
Nature
.
Earthly
House
We
know
,
that
if
our
Earthly
House
of
this
Tabernacle
were
dissolved
,
we
have
a
Building
of
God
,
a
House
not
made
with
Hands
,
eternal
in
the
Heavens
.
Our
Earthly
House
of
this
Tabernacle
,
That
our
Earthly
House
of
this
Tabernacle
,
shall
in
the
end
be
dissolved
Our
Earthly
House
of
this
Tabernacle
,
We
have
a
Building
of
God
,
not
made
with
hands
,
eternal
in
the
Heavens
.
The
Heavens
and
the
Earth
,
which
are
now
,
are
kept
in
store
,
reserved
unto
fire
against
the
day
of
Judgment
,
and
Perdition
of
ungodly
Men
;
and
then
the
Heavens
shall
pass
away
with
a
great
noise
,
and
the
Elements
shall
melt
with
fervent
heat
;
the
Earth
also
,
and
the
Works
that
are
therein
shall
be
burnt
up
.
Seeing
then
that
all
these
things
shall
be
dissolved
,
what
manner
of
Persons
ought
ye
to
be
in
all
holy
Conversation
and
Godliness
.
Nevertheless
,
we
,
according
to
his
Promise
,
look
for
a
new
Heaven
,
and
a
new
Earth
,
wherein
dwelleth
Righteousness
.
Wherefore
(
Beloved
)
seeing
ye
look
for
such
things
,
be
diligent
,
that
ye
may
be
found
of
him
in
peace
,
without
spot
,
and
blameless
.
We
have
a
Building
of
God
,
a
House
,
not
made
with
hands
,
Eternal
in
the
Heavens
.
Mortality
shall
be
swallowed
up
of
Life
:
Whilst
we
are
at
home
in
the
body
,
we
are
absent
from
the
Lord
,
and
walk
by
Faith
,
not
by
sight
;
and
therefore
we
are
willing
rather
to
be
absent
from
the
Body
,
and
present
with
the
Lord
.
We
labour
,
that
whether
present
or
absent
,
we
may
be
accepted
of
Him
:
We
must
all
appear
before
the
Judgment
Seat
of
Christ
,
that
every
one
may
receive
the
things
done
in
his
Body
,
according
to
that
he
hath
done
,
whether
it
be
good
or
bad
.
I
think
it
meet
,
so
long
as
I
am
in
this
Tabernacle
,
to
stir
you
up
,
knowing
that
shortly
I
must
put
off
this
Tabernacle
,
viz.
After
my
going

Out
of
my
Tabernacle
After
my
Departure
After
my
going
out
If
these
Apostles
had
believed
the
Soul
and
Body
to
die
together
,
they
would
never
have
used
such
ensnaring
Metaphorical
Expressions
as
these
,
that
do
so
clearly
hold
forth
a
Seperability
of
the
one
from
the
other
.
That
many
Philosophers
,
and
some
Divines
,
affirm
,
That
's
Rational
Soul
might
be
seperated
from
the
Body
,
and
yet
not
dead
Being
out
of
the
Body
It
is
not
enough
for
Men
to
offer
that
Answer
to
his
Question
.
If
it
were
an
Extasie
,
what
was
the
Nature
of
that
Extasie
?
That
it
is
not
enough
Till
I
hear
a
better
Sense
given
of
this
Text
of
St.
than
I
have
here
given
of
it
,
I
will
conclude
from
hence
,
that
the
Apostle
doth
imply
,
that
his
Soul
,
and
so
all
other
Mens
Souls
,
are
,
whil'st
in
the
Body
,
of
such
a
nature
as
may
be
seperated
from
the
Body
.
That
the
Soul
can
subsist
in
a
State
of
Seperation
from
the
Body
That
when
the
Body
dies
,
the
Soul
is
actually
seperated
from
it
.
Then
shall
the
dust
return
to
the
Earth
as
it
was
,
and
the
Spirit
shall
return
to
God
that
gave
it
.
It
is
most
clear
,
that
by
Dust
,
is
here
meant
the
Body
;
and
by
Spirit
,
the
Soul
of
Life
in
Man
.
Spirit

ye

and
surely
the

of
their

will
I
require
,
at
the
hand
of
every

will
I
require
it
;
and
at
the
hand
of
Man
,
at
the
hand
of
every
Man's
Brother
,
will
I
require
the
Life
of
Man
:
Whoso
sheddeth
Blood
,
by
Man
shall
his
Blood
be
shed
,
for
in
the
Image
of

made

Thou
mayest
kill
of
thy
Herd
,
and
of
thy
Flock
,
in
any
of
thy
Gates
,
only
be
sure
that
thou
eat
not
the
Blood
;
for
the
Blood
is
the
Life
,
and
thou
mayest
not
eat
the
Life
with
the
Flesh
.
I
will
destroy
Man
whom
I
have
created
,
from
the
face
of
the
Ear●h
both
man
and
beast
.
All
in
whose
nostrils
was
the
breath
of
life
,
upon
the
dry
land
,
dyed
in
the
flood
,
Thou
hast
praised
the
gods
of
silver

but
the

in

thy

thou

not

For
as

so
dieth
the

yea
they
have
all
one
Breath

so
that
a

no

all
go

cried

he

unto

why

Behold

out

Ye

they

God

an
abomination

With
Solomon's
return

It
is
a
return
made
to

Many
bare
false
witness
against
our

,

their
Testimonies
were
rejected

wonders
at

A

may
be
truly

The

is
not

.
Secondly
,
That
as
the
Soul
of
Man
is
not
the
Breath
,
so
it
is
not
the
Blood
The
Soul
of
man
is
guilty
of
Inadvertency
,
Rashness
,
Folly
.
The
Soul
is
a
Spirit
,
created
of
God
,
and
indued
with
Sense
and
Reason
,
and
a
Power
of
actuating
an
Humane
Body
,
by
Vital
Vnion

.
We
feel
in
our
Soul
,
a
Power
of
Thinking
The

Motion

Arcanum

That
his
,
the
Soul
,
can
look
upon
one
thing
,
and
think
upon
another
of
a
quite
different
nature
;
and
that
she
can
be
in
the
noise
of
an
Army
,
and
yet
in
a
profound
and
blessed
Peace
:
She
can
cool
the
Blood
in
its
greatest
fervour
of
Lust
.
So
that
it
is
evident
,
she
hath
an
absolute
Empire
over
the
Body
,
and
all
its
Parts
,
and
is
not
constrain'd
in
her
Motions
by
them
,
but
they
are
all
at
her
Command
,
and
move
by
her
Direction

That
which
I
do
,
I
allow
not
;
for
what
I
would
,
that
do
I
not
;
but
what
I
hate
,
that
do
I.
And
that
it
is
not
I
that
do
it
,
but
sin
that
dwelleth
in
me
.
To
will
,
is
present
with
me
,
but
how
to
perform
that
which
is
good
,
I
find
not
;
for
the
good
I
would
,
I
do
not
;
but
the
evil
which
I
would
not
,
that
I
do
;
and
it
is
no
more
I
that
do
it
,
but
sin
that
dwelleth
in
me
.
I
delight
in
he
Law
of
God
after
the
inward
Man
,
but
I
see
another
Law
in
my
Members
,
warring
against
the
Law
of
my
Mind
,
and
bringing
me
into
Captivity
to
the
Law
of
Sin
,
in
my
Members
.
That
the
Power
or
Regiment
of
Reason
in
Man
,
was
both
Monarchical
and
Absolute
.
That
the
Soul
hath
Life
in
her self
,
as
a
Spirit
That
a
Spirit
hath
a
Power
of
penetrating
,
or
gliding
,
through
the
hard
solid
Bodies
of
Marble
,
or
Iron
,
without
finding
,
or
making
any
Cleft
,
Chink
,
or
Cranny
therein

The
Jews
could
not
keep
in
such
a
Prison
,
as
the
Angel
which
deliver'd
him
could
not
penetrate
:
The
Soul
of
a
Man
is
truly
a
Spirit
,
as
an
Angel
is
:
The
Soul
manifests
her
Presence
more
eminently
in
the
Brain
,
than
in
any
other
part
of
the
Body
.
That
a
Spirit
,
and
his
sort
of
Soul
,
is
indivisible
,
or
indiscerptible
,
not
subject
to
Blows
or
Wounds
,
nor
to
be
consumed
by
the
fiercest
fire
.
Are
not
able
to
kill
the
Soul
His
sort
of
Soul
must
either
be
God
,
or
a
Creature
.
That
the
Soul
is
the
proper
and
immediate
Seat
of
Sense
:
The
Soul
is
endued
with
Reason
and
Vnderstanding
.
Reason
is
the
most
Noble
Faculty
of
the
Humane
Nature
,
by
means
of
which
,
we
[
Men
]
know
God
,
and
hold
a
Communion
with
Him
,
and
do
divers
other
great
things
here
named

in
Composito
The
Soul
only
is
the
Man
,
and
the
Body
is
but
the
Souls
Organ
,
or
Instrument
;
and
the
Soul
can
exercise
its
Faculty
of
Vnderstanding
,
without
any
Assistance
of
the
Bodily
Organs
.
de
Anima
,
That
if
the
Soul
ever
was
known
to
do
,
or
can
be
proved
able
to
do
any
thing
,
without
assistance
of
the
Body
and
its
Organs
,
such
Proof
will
be
Evidence
enough
,
to
Convince
considering
Persons
,
that
she
hath
a
Nature
,
and
Subsistence
of
her
own
,
wherein
she
can
act
in
a
state
of
Seperation
from
the
Body
.
If
the
Soul
will
,
the
Feet
walk
,
the
Hands
work
;
and
so
for
the
Motion
of
the
Eyes
,
and
other
like
things
.
The
Soul
is
Vitally
united
with
the
Body
,
and
by
virtue
of
that
Vnion
,
enlivens
and
acts
it
.
That
to
tell
you
what
the
Soul
is
,
so
as
to
make
it
an
Intelligible
Notion
,
is
not
so
impossible
a
thing
as
some
have
conceiv'd
it
to
be
.
That
upon
Gods
breathing
into
Adam
,
He
is
in
the
Text
called
a
Liveng
Soul
;
a
Denomination
taken
from
the
more
excellent
Part
of
Man
,
his
Soul
.
When
God
Breathed
(
which
he
properly
doth
not
)
there
is
something
else
meant
,
which
can
be
nothing
else
but
a
special
Act
of
Creation
;
by
which
he
made
the
Spirit
or
Breath
of
Life
,
which
he
breathed
into
Man
.
By
the
Breath
of
God
,
is
meant
that
Act
of
Divine
Power
,
by
which
God
made
Man
,
and
gave
Life
to
him
.
By
the
word
of
the
Lord

the
Heavens
made

and
all
the

or
the
Spirit
,
or
the
Breath
of
Life
in
Man
,
Liveth
in
and
with
the
Body
,
and
yet
Dieth
not
with
the
Body
:
And
this
,
needs
Proof
That
whose
Life
dependeth
not
on
the
Body
,
must
not
Die
when
the
Body
Dieth
;
but
the
Souls
Life
depends
not
on
the
Body
:
Therefore
it
must
needs
not
Die
when
the
Body
Dieth
:
The
Breath
of
Life
I
pray
thee
divine
to
me
by
the
familiar
Spirit
,
and
bring
me
him
up
,
whom
I
shall
name
unto
thee
:
Willing
Persons
will
rather
play
a●
small
game
then
sit
out
.
He
is
struck
with
wonder
to
hear
Men
assert
,
That
the
Soul
and
Body
of
a
Man
Die
together
,
and
are
both
Buried
in
one
Grave
.
The
Soul
or
Breath
of
Man
was
Breathed
into
Adam
by
an
act
of
Creation
.
The
Spirit
returns
▪
to
God
who
gave
it
.
If
Devils
may
appear
before
God
,
so
may
the
Souls
of
the
Wicked
do
too
.
The
Soul
returns
to
God
who
gave
it
.
The
Soul
returns
,
All
Souls
are
mine
Man
of
Straw
The
Soul
and
Body
are
seperated
at
Death
,
That
they
go
to
two
different
Places
.
It
returns
to
the
Earth
as
it
was
It
returns
to
God
who
gave
it
What
hath
the
Living
God
to
do
with
dead
Spirits
?
Return
to
God
who
gave
it
.
So
I
shut
up
this
Third
Argument
,
and
with
it
,
my
Proofs
from
the
Old
Testament
.
Men
could
only
kill
the
Body
,
but
were
not
able
to
kill
the
Soul
,
an
Absurd
One
That
the
Soul
may
die
when
the
Body
dieth
,
though
it
be
not
slain
when
the
Body
is
killed
.
That
the
killing
of
the
Soul
here
,
may
intend
,
that
they
cannot
kill
it
for
ever
.
Are
not
able
to
kill
the
Soul
Be
not
afraid
of
them
that
kill
the
Body
,
and
after
that
,
have
no
more
that
they
can
do
.
Are
not
able
to
kill
the
Soul
,
Luke
,
Have
no
more
that
they
can
do
Fear
him
who
is
able
to
destroy
both
Soul
and
Body
in
Hell
Fear
him
,
who
after
he
hath
killed
;
hath
power
to
east
into
Hell
.
Fear
not
them
that
kill
the
Body
Who
after
he
hath
killed
,
hath
power
to
cast
into
Hell
.
Are
not
able
to
kill
the
Soul
,
Have
no
more
that
they
can
do
That
Souls
did
Live
and
Subsist
after
the
Departure
and
Death
of
the
Person
.
Are
not
able
to
kill
the
Soul
(
Are
not
able
to
kill
the
Soul
)
Believe
not
every
Spirit
,
but
try
the
Spirits
,
whether
they
are
of
God
.

He
was
afraid
to

he

They
went

to
them
in

They

at

before

That
our
Lord
being
at
Capernaum
,
there
came
to
him
a
Centurion
,
whose
servant
was
sick
,
and
told
our
Lord
,
that
his
sickness
was
a
Palsie
.
And
Jesus
answering
,
said
,
I
will
come
and
heal
him
:
Nay
,
replies
the
Centurion
,
I
am
not
worthy
that
thou
should'st
come
under
my
roof
,
but
speak
the
word
only
,

my

shall
be
healed

Go
thy
way

as
thou
hast
believed
,
so
be
it
done
unto
thee
.
This
Centurions
servant
was
ready
to
die
,
and
when
he
heard
of
Jesus
,
he
sent
unto
him
the
Elders
of
the
Jews
,
beseeching
him
that
he
would
come
and
heal
his
servant
.
Lord
,
trouble
not
thy self
,
for
I
am
not
worthy
that
thou
should'st
enter
under

Roof

wherefore
neither
thought
I
my self
worthy
to
come

,

shall
be

He

his

I
know
that
some
conjecture
,
that
his

was
rais'd
;

they
cannot
prove
that
Conjecture

Our
Lord
,
by
this
Parable
,
intended
to
set
forth
an
immediate
state
of
Happiness
for
the
Godly
,
and
of
Misery
for
the
Wicked
.
viz.
That
there
are
things
highly
esteemed
among
men
,
and
yet
are
an
Abomination
in
the
sight
of
God
.
The
Dead
know
not
any
thing
That
in
Death
,
all
Mens
Thoughts
perish
That
all
Concerns
perish
with
Death
:
The
Grave
cannot
praise
thee
,
Death
cannot
celebrate
thee
;
they
that
go
down
into
the
Pit
,
cannot
hope
,
but
the
Living
can
only
praise
Thee
,
as
I
do

That
was
a

created
by
God
,

Being

it

into

procreated
Body

without
the
Parents
having
any
part
in
the
Generation

it

How
is
he
then
his
Son
?
It
seemed

He
never
heard
of
any
Objection
offered
against
his
Argument
drawn
from
this
Text
,
but
One
,
which
was
this
,
That
some
Men
have
offered
a
different
Reading
in
Part
of
this
Text
,
pretending
it
should
be
read
,
that
our
Lord
said
,
That
as
the
Soul
of
Christ
,
and
the
Penitent
Thief
,
were
immortal
,
so
are
the
Souls
of
other
Men.

Spirit

know
of
any
such
Phraesed
Petitions
as
these
are
,
put
up
by
either
of
them
,
or
any
other
Person
,
in
Prayer
,
but
just
at
the
Moment
of
dying
.
Into
thy

I
commend
my

Into

O

If
his
Interpretation
of
those
Words
be
true
,
they
clearly
express
the
Souls
Immortality
.
The

here
,
intends
Seperate

What
the
word
Spirit
here
means
,
and
whether
it
mean
the
Life
of
the
Body
.
the
Life
of
the
Body
quatenus
tale
A
Body
without
a
Spirit
,
is
dead
:
What
?
Is
it
the
dead
Carcass
,
the
whole
M●n
,
Body
and
Soul
?
And
if
Christ
be
in
you
,
the
Body
is
dead
,
because
of
sin
;
but
the
Spirit
is
Life
,
because
of
Righteosness
;
and
if
the
Spirit
of
him
that
raised
up
Jesus
from
the
Dead
,
dwell
in
you
,
he
that
raised
up
Christ
from
the
Dead
,
shall
also
quicken
your
Mortal
Bodies
,
by
his
Spirit
that
dwelleth
in
you
.
Methinks
this
Truth
of
the
Souls
Immortality
,
doth
very
clearly
shine
in
the
Evidence
of
this
Scripture
.
If
you
ask
,
How
comes
the
Soul
thus
to
over-live
the
Body
?
Mala
Expositio
corrumpit
Textum
The
Apostle
was
well
aware
of
it
,
and
therefore
gave
it
an
Answer
.
Having
thus
cleared
up
the
Text
,
by
giving
you
its
Meaning
,
I
proceed
now
to
lay
down
my
Argument
,
to
prove
,
that
the
Soul
of
Man
dieth
not
with
the
Body
.
The
Soul
not
subject
to
Death
,
because
nothing
is
so
,
that
is
not
subject
to
the
Power
of
Death
,
and
the
Soul
of
the
Believer
is
not
so
.
The
Spirit
of
a
Believer
,
is
not
subject
to
the
Law
of
Death
:
That
by
what
he
hath
said
,
it
appears
,
that
the
Law
of
Death
is
executed
only
on
the
Body
of
a
Believer
.
Therefore
we
are
always
confident
,
knowing
that
whil'st
we
are
at
home
in
the
body
,
we
are
absent
from
the
Lord
:
We
are
consident
,
I
say
,
and
willing
rather
,
to
be
absent
from
the
body
,
and
to
be
present
with
the
Lord
We
are
confident
it
proves
the
Souls
of
Men
Seperate
,
and
are
Immortal
:
but
the
former
,
is
true
,
therefore
the
later
that
is
absent
from
the
body
,
and
present
with
the
Lord
?
it
cannot
mean
the
body
nor
the
whole
person
;
not
the
whole
person
,
for
that
the
whole
man
cannot
be
said
to
be
at
home
in
one
part
of
the
man
,
his
body
;
or
absent
from
it
;
for
the
whole
of
anything
cannot
be
contained
in
a
part
of
it
.
P.
We
,
that
would
be
absent
from
the
Body
,
and
present
with
the
Lord
:
It
can
only
intend
Mens
Souls
:
We
are
cast
down
but
not
destroyed
,
always
bearing
about
in
the
Body
the
dying
of
our
Lord
Jesus
.
That
the
Life
of
Jesus
might
be
made
manifest
in
our
Body
We
know
,
that
he
which
raised
up
the
Lord
JESVS
,
shall
raise
up
us
also
by
JESVS
,
and
shall
present
us
with
you
.
Though
our
outward
Man
perish
,
yet
the
inward
Man
is
renewed
Day
by
Day
:
We
know
that
if
our
Earthly
House
of
this
Tabernacle
were
dissolved
,
we
have
a
Building
of
God
;
an
House
,
not
made
with
hands
,
eternal
in
the
Heavens
.
For
in
this
we
groan
earnestly
,
desiring
to
be
cloathed
upon
with
our
House
which
is
from
Heaven
.
And
we
that
are
in
this
Tabernacle
do
groan
.
being
burthen'd
;
not
for
that
we
would
be
uncloath'd
,
but
cloathed
upon
,
that
Mortality
might
be
swallowed
up
of
Life
:
And
we
are
always
confident
,
knowing
that
whilst
we
are
at
home
in
the
Body
,
we
are
absent
from
the
Lord
.
We
are
confident
I
say
,
and
willing
rather
to
be
absent
from
the
Body
,
and
present
with
the
Lord
:
And
we
labour
,
that
whether
present
or
absent
,
we
may
be
accepted
of
him
;
for
we
must
all
appear
before
the
Judgment
Seat
of
Christ
,
that
every
one
may
receive
the
things
done
in
his
Body
,
according
to
that
he
hath
done
,
whether
it
be
good
or
bad
.
That
he
who
raised
up
our
Lord
Jesus
,
shall
raise
us
up
also
by
Jesus
:
We
must
all
appear
before
the
Judgment
Seat
of
Christ
,
and
there
receive
Recompences
according
to
our
Works
.
Absent
from
the
Body
,
and
present
with
the
Lord
,
Flesh
and
Blood
cannot
inherit
the
Kingdom
of
God
There
are
Celestial
Bodies
,
and
Bodies
Terrestrial
.
There
is
a
Natural
Body
,
and
there
is
a
Spiritual
Body
.
First
,
that
which
is
Natural
and
afterward
that
which
is
Spiritual
.
And
as
we
have
born
the
Image
of
the
Earthly
,
so
shall
we
bear
the
Image
of
the
Heavenly
.
Mystery
,
we
shall
not
all
sleep
,
but
we
shall
all
be
changed

for
at
the
sound
of
the
last
Trumpet

the
Dead
shall
be
raised
incorruptible

shall

Corruptible

we
which

the

shall
not
prevent
them

himself
shall
descend

the
dead
in
Christ
shall
rise
first
;

we
which

shall
be
caught
up
together
with

so

we

not

Beloved

it
doth
not

what
we
shall

me
know
that
when
He
shall
appear

we
shall
be
like
him

our
vile
Bodies
shall
be
chang'd

We
desire
to
be
absent
from
the
Body

We

not

sleep

I
knew
a
man
about
fourteen
years
ago
,
whether
in
the
body

or
out
of
the

,
I
cannot
tell
:
And
I
knew
such
a
man
,
whether
in
the
body
,
or
out
of
the
body
,
I
cannot
tell
;
how
that
he
was
caught
up
into
Paradise
,
and
heard
unspeakable
words
,
not
lawful
to
be
uttered
.
The
Apostle
thought
there
was
some
such
part
of
himself
,
as
might
be
seperable
from
his
Body
;
for
no
Man
can
ever
doubt
the
Being
of
a
Thing
,
which
he
knows
is
uncapable
to
be
:
In
the
Body
▪
or
out
of
the
Body
,
What
God
hath
cleansed
,
call
not
thou
common

Balaam
took
up
his
Parable

the

He
hath
said
,
which
heard
the
Words
of
God
,
which
saw
the
Vision
of
the
Almighty
,
falling
into
a
Trance
but
having
his
eyes
open
.
I
shall
see
him
,
but
not
now
;
I
shall
behold
him
,
but
not
nigh
;
there
shall
come
a
Star
out
of
and
a
Scepter
shall
rise
out
of

I
saw
the
Lord
sitting
on
his
Throne
,
and
all
the
Host
of
Heaven
standing
by
him
on
his
right
hand
,
and
on
his
left
:
John
looked
and
behold
a
door
was
opened
in
Heaven
,
and
he
heard
a
Voice
as
it
were
of
a
Trumpet
,
which
said
,
Come
up
hither
,
and
I
will
shew
thee
things
which
must
be
hereafter
;
and
immediately
he
was
in
the
Spirit
,
and
behold
a
Throne
was
set
in
Heaven
.
Immediately
I
was
in
the
Spirit
To
me
to
die
,
is
gain
;
for
I
am
in
a
straight
betwixt
two
,
having
a
desire
to
depart
and
to
be
with
Christ
,
which
is
far
better
.
To
die
was
gain
I
hope
that
in
nothing
I
shall
be
ashamed
,
but
that
Christ
shall
be
magnified
in
my
body
,
whether
it
be
by
life
or
by
death
;
for
to
me
to
live
is
Christ
,
and
to
die
is
gain
:
but
if
I
live
in
the
flesh
,
this
is
the
fruit
of
my
labour
:
what
I
should
chuse
I
wot
not
,
but
am
in
a
strait
betwixt
two
;
having
a
desire
to
depart
and
be
with
Christ
,
which
is
far
better
:
nevertheless
,
to
abide
in
the
flesh
is
more
needful
for
you
.
That
to
die
is
gain
,
and
that
to
die
is
better
than
to
live
here
.
gives
the
Reason
,
why
it
is
better
for
him
to
die
,
than
to
live
here
;
because
,
in
departing
hence
,
he
shall
be
with
Christ
.
That
if
he
did
die
,
he
should
be
with
Christ
:
do
now
rejoice
in
my
Sufferings
for
you
,
and
fill
up
that
which
is
behind
of
the
Afflictions
of
Christ
in
my
flesh
,
for
his
Bodies
sake
,
which
is
the
Church

I
desire
that
ye
faint
not

This
Apostle
was
then
the
Aged

a
Prisoner
of

I
am
ready
to
be
offered

and
the
time
of
my
departure
is
at
hand

At
my
first
Answer
no
man
stood
with
me
,
but
all
men
forsook
me
;
but
God
stood
with

I
was

Ye
have
well
done

ye
did

Blessed
are
the

which
die
in

yea
,
saith
the
Spirit
,
that
they
may
rest
from
their
labours
,
and
their
works
do
follow

Whether
we
live

we
live
unto
the
Lord
;
or
whether
we
die
,
we
die
unto
the
Lord
;
whether
we
live
therefore
or
die
,
we
are
the
Lord
's
.
Who
shall
seperate
us
from
the
Love
of
Christ
?
I
am
perswaded
,
that
neither
Death
nor
Life
,
nor
Angels
,
nor
any
other
Creature
,
shall
be
able
to
seperate
us
from
the
Love
of
God
,
which
is
in
Christ
Jesus
'
our
Lord
.
The
God
of
He
is
not
the
God
of
the
dead
,
but
of
the
living
;
for
all
live
unto
him
.
That
whether
we
live
or
die
,
we
are
the
That
for
them
to
die
is
Gain
,
I
have
a
desire
to
depart
,
and
be
with
Christ
,
which
is
far
better
:
If
we
live
,
we
live
unto
the
Lord
;
and
if
we
die
,
we
die
unto
the
Lord
;
so
as
whether
we
live
or
die
,
we
are
the
Lord
's
.
It
pleased
the
Father
,
that
in
him
should
all
Fulness
dwell
,
and
(
having
made
Peace
through
the
Blood
of
the
Cross
)
by
him
to
reconcile
all
things
to
himself
;
by
him
I
say
,
whether
they
be
things
in
Earth
,
or
things
in
Heaven
.
There
were
Souls
of
Men
in
Heaven
,
when
St.
writ
this
Epistle
;
because
the
Apostle
says
,
there
were
things
in
Heaven
reconciled
by
the
Blood
of
the
Cross
:
He
knows
not
that
there
are
any
other
things
in
Heaven
,
which
need
Reconciliation
to
God
by
Christ
,
except
Men
will
take
these
things
to
be
the
Souls
of
departed
Persons
.
by
things
in
Heaven
reconciled
to
God
by
Christ
:
Things
in
Heaven
reconciled
to
God
by
Christ
,
If
there
be
any
things
else
in
Heaven
,
besides
the
Souls
of
Men
,
which
need
a
Reconciliation
to
God
,
What
are
those
things
?
Things
in
Heaven
Things
in
Heaven
We
are
come
to
the
Spirits
of
just
Men
made
perfect
.
That
the
Souls
or
Spirits
of
Men
,
are
Immortal
;
and
therefore
it
is
a
very
great
Truth
that
they
are
Immortal
Those
Souls
which
the
Gospel
reveals
to
be
alive
out
af
their
Bodies
,
are
thereby
proved
to
be
Immortal
;
but
the
Gospel
reveals
that
the
Souls
of
just
Men
are
alive
out
of
their
Bodies
;
therefore
the
Souls
of
Men
are
alive
out
of
their
Bodies
;
therefore
the
Souls
of
Men
are
Immortal
.
The
Gospel
revealeth
,
that
the
Spirits
of
just
Men
are
alive
out
of
their
Bodies
:
they
were
made
perfect
We
have
a
Right
to
the
Society
of
those
Spirits
of
just
Men
mude
perfect
,
which
we
shall
have
in
possession
when
we
depart
hence
:
Ye
are
come
unto
Mount
Sion
,
and
to
the
Heavenly
Jerusalem
,
or
City
of
God
,
to
the
Company
of
Angels
,
to
the
general
Assembly
and
Church
of
the
first
Born
;
and
to
God
the
Judge
of
all
,
and
to
the
Spirits
of
just
Men
made
perfect
,
and
to
Jesus
the
Mediator
of
the
New
Covenant
.
See
that
ye
refuse
not
him
that
speaketh
,
whose
Voice
(
at
the
giving
of
the
Law
)
shook
the
Earth
;
but
now
he
hath
promised
,
saying
,
yet
once
more
I
shake
not
the
Earth
only
,
but
also
Heaven
;
and
this
signifies
the
removal
of
those
things
which
are
shaken
,
and
that
we
shall
receive
a
Kingdom
which
cannot
be
removed
.
Shall
come
down
from
God
out
of
Heaven
,
as
a
Bride
adorned
for
her
Husband
,
at
,
or
after
the
time
of
the
Resurrection
;
after
Heaven
and
Earth
have
been
shaken
,
and
are
removed
.
Ye
are
come
to
these
Glories
These
having
all
obtained
a
good
Report
through
Faith
,
received
not
the
Promise
;
God
having
provided
some
better
thing
for
us
;
that
they
without
us
should
not
be
made
perfect
.
This
seems
a
very
obscure
Text
,
especially
applied
as
a
Proof
of
the
Souls
Immortality
.
It
is
evident
the
Apostle
here
speaks
of
some
special
Promise
that
the
Patriarchs
had
rec●iv'd
;
the
fulfilling
whereof
they
never
lived
to
see
;
and
which
was
made
to
appear
to
the
Church
,
at
,
or
before
the
writing
of
this
Epistle
.
How
can
it
be
said
,
that
they
who
died
in
the
Faith
of
this
Promise
,
are
made
perfect
(
with
the
then
present
Church
)
by
the
fulfilling
that
Promise
,
in
the
Manifestation
of
the
Son
of
God
?
That
Angels
did
desire
to
look
into
,
and
be
better
inform'd
in
this
Mystery
,
until
Christ
came
in
the
Flesh
,
and
proved
himself
by
Miracles
,
to
be
the
and
then
their
Knowledge
thereof
was
perfected
.
The
Case
was
the
same
with
the
Spirits
of
those
deceased
Patriarchs
in
Heaven
.
Till
you
that
oppose
,
can
give
me
a
better
Interpretation
of
this
obscure
Text
,
I
will
Conclude
,
that
the
Interpretation
[
or
Opinion
]
is
false
,
and
mine
is
true
.
By
which
also
he
went
and
preached
to
the
Spirits
in
Prison
,
which
sometime
were
disobedient
in
the
Times
of
Noah
.
He
waves
the
Interpretation
which
the
Papists
make
of
this
Text
:
These
Spirits
in
Prison
which
Christ
preached
to
,
must
be
taken
to
intend
the
Souls
of
wicked
Men
in
Hell
:
God
cast
the
Angels
that
sinned
,
down
to
Hell
,
and
delivered
them
into
Chains
of
Darkness
,
to
be
reserved
into
Judgment
.
The
wicked
Angels
God
hath
reserved
in
Chains
of
Darkness
,
unto
the
Judgment
of
the
Great
Day
.
I
saw
under
the
Altar
,
the
Souls
of
them
that
were
slain
for
the
Word
of
God
;
and
they
cryed
with
a
loud
Voice
,
saying
,
How
long
,
O
Lord
,
Holy
and
True
,
doest
thou
not
avenge
our
Blood
on
them
that
dwell
on
the
Earth
?
And
white
Robes
were
given
to
every
one
of
them
,
and
it
was
said
unto
them
,
that
they
should
rest
yet
for
a
little
season
,
until
their
Fellow
Servants
also
,
and
Brethren
that
should
be
killed
,
as
they
were
,
should
be
fulfilled
.
Learned
Men
do
differ
about
this
Altar
;
some
take
it
for
the
Altar
of
Incense
,
and
some
for
the
Altar
of
Burnt-offerings
,
which
I
take
to
be
a
Dispute
It
is
as
clear
,
That
John
saw
the
Souls
of
them
that
were
slain
:
That
by
the
Souls
under
the
Altar
,
are
intended
the
Martyrs
dead
Bodies
:
Those
which
had
white
Robes
given
them
,
are
triumphing
in
Heaven
,
but
the
Souls
of
the
Slain
had
white
Robes
given
them
,
therefore
they
are
triumphing
.
That
between
the
Souls
crying
out
,
and
their
being
rewarded
with
white
Robes
,
the
Souls
were
drawn
from
under
the
Altar
and
set
at
Liberty
,
and
then
received
their
white
Robes
,
and
remained
triumphing
in
Glory
.
viz.
First
The
Altar
of
Burnt
Offerings
was
to
be
made
five
Cubits
long
and
five
Cubits
broad
,
which
I
conceive
to
be
next
our
measure
of
three
Yards
square
,
and
three
Cubits
high
,
a
little
more
then
one
Yard
and
half
high
.
Hollow
with
Boards
shalt
thou
make
it
,
and
thou
shalt
overlay
it
with
Brass
,
and
thou
shalt
make
for
it
a
Net
work
of
Brass
.
Love
your
Enemies
,
Bless
them
that
Curse
you
,
do
Good
to
them
that
Hate
you
,
and
pray
for
them
that
despitefully
use
you
and
persecute
you
.
Being
Reviled
we
suffer
it
,
being
Persecuted
we
bless
Father
forgive
them
,
for
they
know
not
what
they
do
Lord
lay
not
this
Sin
to
their
Charge
.
That
by
Souls
in
this
Text
,
we
must
understand
dead
Carcasses
to
be
meant
.
We
must
understand
dead
Persons
to
be
meant
,
it
being
very
usual
in
Scripture
to
intend
or
signifie
Persons
by
the
Name
or
Term
of
Souls
;
as
when
went
down
into
the
Persons
of
his
Family
are
termed
so
many
Souls
,
and
in
St.
's
Voyage
to
there
were
in
the
Ship
that
carryed
him
Souls
,
which
in
this
place
are
express'd
by
the
Terms
and
in
our
quoted
Text
by
the
same
Term
I
saw
under
the
Altar
the
Souls
of
the
Martyrs
:
Blessed
are
the
Dead
which
die
in
the
Lord
,
from
henceforth
,
yea
,
saith
the
Spirit
,
that
they
may
rest
from
their
Labours
,
and
their
Works
do
follow
them
.
By
Blessedness
in
this
Text
,
must
needs
be
meant
Happiness
,
and
all
Happiness
implies
Joy
,
and
all
Joy
implies
Life
;
and
when
he
has
rais'd
Blessedness
in
this
manner
,
he
infers
from
the
Word
henceforth
,
that
it
must
Commence
presently
upon
the
death
of
the
Person

wresting
the
signification
of
the
Words
,
from
Henceforth
,
which
do
properly
signifie
(
from
the
time
of
that
Prophesie
,
to
signifie
)
the
time
of
every
Man's
Death
,
which
I
do
not
find
to
be
mentioned
or
intended
by
the
Text
:
If
the
Dead
in
the
Lord
do
from
the
time
of
their
being
dead
,
commence
a
Blessedness
,
not
only
in
resting
from
their
Labours
,
but
likewise
in
being
rewarded
for
their
Works
,
then
do
they
continue
to
live
in
some
part
of
them
,
which
is
their
Spirits
,
and
consequently
their
Spirits
die
not
with
their
Bodies
,
but
are
Immortal
.
That
this
Blessedness
is
said
by
the
Spirit
to
be
given
from
the
time
of
Mens
Deaths
,
from
Henceforth
the
Dead
which
die
in
the
Lord
,
shall
have
a
blessed
Rest
;
and
their
Works
do
follow
them
.
That
the
dead
Saints
do
not
only
enjoy
a
blessed
Rest
,
but
that
they
also
enter
upon
,
and
enjoy
Rewards
for
their
Works
,
as
soon
as
they
are
dead
If
no
Rewards
of
active
Happiness
and
Joy
followed
immediately
after
Death
,
it
would
be
wonderful
the
Spirit
of
God
should
pronounce
a
Blessedness
on
such
as
die
in
the
Lord
,
above
those
who
live
on
Earth
in
the
Lord
;
and
this
would
be
contrary
to
the
Sense
of
all
God's
People
,
and
specially
to
the
Sense
of
such
as
Administer
Comfort
to
dying
Persons
from
this
Topick
,
by
telling
them
,
that
immediately
after
Death
their
Souls
shall
by
Angels
be
transported
into
Heaven
,
or
Paradise
,
or
Abraham's
Bosome
,
or
some
such
Place
,
where
they
shall
not
only
be
at
rest
,
but
have
present
Joys
and
Happiness
conferr'd
upon
them
He
thinks
there
are
none
of
God's
People
,
who
would
not
rather
chuse
to
live
upon
Earth
tho'
under
Persecution
,
then
to
die
and
be
buried
in
the
Earth
That
from
the
time
of
dying
,
the
Saints
are
blessed
with
Rewards
for
their
Work
,
as
well
as
from
their
Labour
.
And
I
heard
a
Voice
from
Heaven
,
saying
unto
me
write
,
Blessed
are
the
Dead
which
die
in
the
Lord
,
from
henceforth
,
yea
saith
the
Spirit
,
that
they
may
rest
from
their
Labours
,
and
their
Works
do
follow
them
.
That
their
Works
do
follow
them
,
That
none
of
Gods
Saints
upon
Earth
would
willingly
embrace
Death
,
but
rather
chuse
a
longer
Life
upon
Earth
,
(
altho'
under
a
state
of
great
Persecution
)
if
they
did
not
expect
Heavenly
Rewards
presently
upon
the
death
of
their
Persons
You
shall
never
perswade
People
to
a
contented
departure
out
of
this
World
,
by
telling
them
they
shall
presently
enjoy
a
blessed
Rest
in
the
Lord
,
and
therefore
they
must
be
told
of
,
and
perswaded
to
expect
Glorious
Rewards
in
Heaven
presently
after
their
passing
out
of
this
World
.
That
they
shall
have
a
blessed
Rest
in
the
Lord
,
If
thou
deal
thus
with
me
,
kill
me
I
pray
thee
,
out
of
hand
,
if
I
have
found
favour
in
thy
sight
,
and
let
me
not
see
my
Wretchedness
.
The
Prophet
received
a
Message
from
that
he
should
the
next
day
be
slain
;
upon
which
Message
he
fled
for
safety
of
his
Life
into
the
Wilderness
of
and
there
sat
him
down
under
a
and
requested
of
God
for
himself
that
he
might
die
;
and
said
,
it
is
enough
now
,
O
Lord
,
take
away
my
Life
,
for
I
am
not
better
than
my
Fathers
.
He
wishes
to
have
died
from
the
Womb
,
should
I
now
have
lain
still
and
been
at
quiet
,
I
should
have
slept
;
then
had
I
been
at
rest
with
Lords
and
Princes
,
or
as
a
hidden
untimely
Birth
;
for
the
Great
and
Small
are
there
:
there
the
wicked
cease
from
Troubling
,
there
the
weary
be
at
rest
;
wherefore
is
Life
given
to
him
that
is
in
misery
and
bitterness
of
Soul
,
which
long
for
Death
but
it
cometh
not

and
dig
for
it
more
than
for
hidden
Treasure

which
rejoyce
exceedingly

glad
when
they
can
find
the
Grave

The
Righteous
perisheth

no
Man
layeth
it

are
taken
away

the
Righteous

He
shall
enter
into
Peace

They
shall
rest
in
their
Beds

one

in
his
Vprightness

the
Son

sick
God
will
gather
thee
unto

Fathers

thou
shalt
be

into
thy
Grave
in
Peace

and
thy
Eyes
shall
not

all
the
Evil

I
will
bring
upon
this
Place
:
To
me
to
live
is
Christ
,
and
to
die
is
Gain
,
and
I
have
a
desire
to
depart
,
and
be
with
Christ
which
is
far
better
;
yet
my
living
in
the
Flesh
is
more
needful
for
you
:
That
those
who
serve
him
,
shall
be
rais'd
up
[
to
a
state
of
Happiness
]
at
the
last
Day
with
Fear
and
Trembling
to
die
and
to
be
with
Christ
,
in
the
Sense
of
resting
or
sleeping
in
him
,
is
better
and
more
eligible
than
to
live
in
Christ
in
the
World

in
an
afflicted
and
suffering
Condition

That

may
take
part

this
Ministry
and
Apostleship
,
from
which
by
Transgression
fell

he
might
go
to
his
own
place

And
they
gave
forth
thiir
Lots

Lot
fell

goes
thither

This
Text
intends
the
Sufferings
of
the
Sodomites
Souls
after
Death
:
If
his
Soul
have
not
a
Seperate
Subsistence
,
he
can
suffer
no
more
than
a
Temporal
Death
,
except
we
had
Ground
to
believe
a
Resurrection
of
the
Body
,
of
which
the
Scripture
is
silent
,
and
we
likewise
deny
it
.
The
Beasts
are
Sick
,
and
Groan
and
Die
for
Man's
Sin
or
Sinfulness
That
without
a
Revelation
from
God
,
concerning
the
Resurrection
of
the
whole
Man
,
Men
could
not
expect
the
Rewards
or
Punishments
after
Death
,
unless
their
Souls
have
a
Seperate
Subsistence
If
in
this
Life
only
we
have
hope
in
Christ
,
we
Christians
are
of
all
Men
most
miserable
If
the
Heathens
had
no
reason
to
believe
the
Immortality
of
the
Soul
,
and
had
no
Revelation
at
all
of
a
Resurrection
given
them
W.
Could
they
be
brought
to
a
Reformation
in
their
Manners
?
How
Men
should
order
themselves
,
who
never
had
the
Resurrection
revealed
to
them
?
His
Opposers
pretends
the
Spirit
of
Life
in
Man
or
his
Soul
,
to
be
but
a
fine
Temperament
of
Moisture
,
Air
and
Fire
,
very
near
of
Kin
,
and
sutable
to
the
Temperament
of
the
Body
:
If
things
were
so
,
then
Soul
might
have
been
created
of
the
Dust
as
well
as
his
Body
.
He
hath
opened
in
his
first
Argument
what
this
breathing
into
Man
intends
,
and
refers
his
Readers
thither
again
for
the
Knowledge
of
it
That
such
a
Soul
as
his
Opposers
believe
,
is
subject
in
its
parts
to
Division
,
Dissipation
,
and
Corruption
That
from
thence
it
will
follow
,
that
all
God's
Threats
denounced
against
Sinners
,
is
but
to
keep
those
inflam'd
Particles
of
the
Blood
in
order
That
such
a
Temperament
of
Soul
cannot
offend
God
,
because
it
is
Material
and
Senseless
That
God
cannot
produce
Intelligence
,
by
his
wise
Commixture
of
Material
Agents
and
Patients
,
which
hath
before
been
disputed
That
our
sort
of
Material
Soul
cannot
love
or
fear
God
,
nor
understand
what
it self
doth
:
That
the
Contentions
between
the
Flesh
and
Spirit
in
Man
,
cannot
be
maintained
by
the
Natural
difference
between
a
Material
Soul
,
and
the
Body
wherein
it
resides
If
the
Soul
be
Material
,
it
will
follow
,
that
Mens
faculties
of
Reason
,
Intellect
and
Memory
,
are
seated
in
a
Corporeal
Elementary
Substance
That
none
of
these
faculties
can
be
immediately
seated
in
any
Corporeal
Elementary
Substance
These
Faculties
cannot
be
acted
by
a
Material
Substance
;
but
he
finds
these
Faculties
in
himself
,
and
therefore
they
must
be
acted
in
Men
by
a
Spiritual
Substance
.
I
find
a
power
in
me
of
Sensation
,
as
Seeing
,
Hearing
,
but
none
of
these
Faculties
are
seated
in
a
Substance
purely
Elementary
.
That
the
Soul
must
needs
be
Immortal
,
because
Men
have
a
Rational
Faculty
,
whereby
they
can
act
abundance
of
things
here
by
him
enumerated
,
and
which
seem
to
be
beyond
all
Capacities
in
the
Nature
of
Matter
it self
,
and
all
the
Advantages
which
Humane
Art
or
Industry
can
give
it
:
That
it
lets
Men
loose
to
Immoralities
,
and
gratifies
bad
Men
and
their
Actions
.
Belief
of
the
Souls
Mortality
,
keeps
the
minds
of
wicked
Men
from
fearing
the
Torments
which
others
expect
to
succeed
the
very
time
of
their
Deaths
.
That
the
Doctrine
of
the
Resurrection
and
the
Last
Judgment
,
may
be
of
Consideration
sufficient
to
terrifie
wicked
Persons
The
Opinion
of
the
Souls
Extinguishment
is
troublesome
to
the
Souls
of
good
Men
;
a
mode
of
speaking
which
I
would
correct
,
and
say
it
is
troublesome
to
good
Men
themselves
,
whose
Hearts
are
in
Heaven
whilst
they
are
on
Earth
,
to
whom
it
is
grievous
to
think
of
any
delay
between
Death
and
their
going
to
God
to
live
in
Vnion
with
him
.
That
his
ancient
Testimonies
and
the
Vniversal
Belief
of
the
Christian
Church
,
is
no
small
Evidence
of
the
Truth
of
that
Opinion
.
The
generality
of
the
were
of
that
Mind
The
Sadduces
denied
the
Souls
Immortality
,
and
shews
that
was
no
Friend
of
theirs
That
Mens
Souls
go
to
Heaven
,
and
then
after
a
certain
Revolution
or
Period
,
are
again
commanded
to
live
in
Bodies
.
It
is
Misery
to
live
,
and
not
to
die
;
for
Death
freeth
our
Souls
from
Prison
,
into
their
most
pure
and
proper
Place
,
so
as
whilst
they
are
in
the
Body
,
they
may
properly
be
said
to
be
dead
It
is
clear
that
the
Church
of
the
always
held
the
Opinion
of
the
Souls
Immortality
,
The
Spirit
returns
to
God
who
gave
it
The
Body
returns
to
the
Dust
as
it
was
,
The
Spirit
return'd
to
God
who
gave
it
.
When
I
have
prepared
fitting
places
for
you
,
I
will
come
and
receive
you
to
my Self
,
that
where
I
am
ye
may
be
also
.

He

thus
given
us
the
Judgment
of

Four

Centuries
of

is
no
small
Argument
of
the
Truth
of

Immortality
;

of
the
same
Opinion
have
the

have
very
strong

for
a
living
dog
is
better
than
a
dead
lyon
:
for
the
living
know
that
they
shall
die
,
but
the
dead
know
not
anything
,
neither
have
they
any
more
a
reward
;
for
their
memory
is
forgotten
:
their
love
,
hatred
,
and
envy
,
are
perished
.
Whatsoever
thy
hand
findeth
to
do
,
do
it
with
thy
might
;
for
there
is
no
work
,
nor
device
,
nor
knowledge
,
in
the
grave
,
whither
thou
goest
.
The
Spirit
returns
to
God
who
gave
it
,
The
Grave
cannot
praise
thee
,
Death
cannot
celebrate
thee
;
they
that
go
down
into
the
Pit
,
cannot
hope
for
thy
Truth
:
The
living
,
the
living
,
he
shall
praise
thee
,
as
I
do
this
day
.
's
meaning
in
these
words
,
is
that
Men
after
Death
cannot
praise
God
as
they
do
whilst
they
are
in
this
World
,
and
in
the
Congregations
of
Men
,
but
that
still
they
can
and
do
praise
God
after
Death
in
Heaven
.
Solomon
,
The
Dead
know
not
any
thing
:
That
Dead
Men
do
not
know
any
thing
of
what
is
done
under
the
Sun
after
their
Deaths
.
The
Dead
know
not
any
thing
There
is
no
device
nor
knowledge
in
the
grave
,
whither
thou
goest
;
the
living
know
that
they
shall
die
,
but
the
dead
know
not
any
thing
If
a
Man
live
many
Years
and
rejoyce
in
them
all
,
yet
let
him
remember
the
days
of
Darkness
,
for
they
shall
be
many
;
and
then
he
gives
Liberty
to
the
young
Man
to
rejoyce
in
the
days
of
his
Youth
,
and
use
his
Liberty
;
but
withal
bids
him
know
,
that
for
these
things
God
will
bring
him
into
Judgment
:
After
he
had
said
the
Spirit
returns
to
God
who
gave
it
Fear
God
and
keep
his
Commandments
,
for
God
shall
bring
every
work
into
Judgment
,
with
every
secret
thing
,
whether
it
be
good
,
or
whether
it
be
evil
.
There
are
days
of
darkness
,
and
many
of
them
,
That
at
the
death
of
the
party
,
or
soon
after
,
good
mens
souls
enjoy
much
more
light
,
liberty
,
and
glory
,
than
every
they
had
before
:
In
my
Fathers
House
are
many
Mansions
,
I
go
to
prepare
a
place
for
you
;
and
if
I
go
to
prepare
a
place
for
you
,
I
will
come
again
,
and
receive
you
again
to
my self
;
that
where
I
am
,
there
ye
may
be
also
.
The
powers
of
Heaven
shall
be
shaken
,
and
then
shall
they
see
the
Son
of
Man
coming
in
a
cloud
with
power
and
great
glory
;
and
when
these
things
begin
to
come
to
pass
,
then
look
up
,
and
lift
up
your
heads
,
for
your
redemption
draweth
nigh
rewards
for
the
Saints
When
Christ
who
is
our
life
,
shall
appear
,
then
shall
ye
appear
with
him
also
in
glory
.
Beloved
,
now
are
we
the
sons
of
God
,
and
it
doth
not
yet
appear
what
we
shall
be
;
but
we
know
that
when
he
shall
appear
,
we
shall
be
like
him
;
for
we
shall
see
him
as
he
is
.
I
have
finished
my
course
,
I
have
kept
the
faith
,
henceforth
there
is
laid
up
for
me
a
crown
of
righteousness
,
which
the
Lord
,
the
righteous
Judge
,
shall
give
me
at
that
day
;
and
not
to
me
only
,
but
to
them
also
that
love
his
appearing
.
The
Lord
give
mercy
to
the
house
of
the
Lord
grant
unto
him
that
he
may
find
mercy
of
the
Lord
in
that
day
.
quia
vis
unita
fortior
That
Day
What
then
?
It
follows
not
thence
that
therefore
there
are
not
Souls
in
glory
before
that
time
:
for
Kings
may
reign
before
they
receive
their
Crown
and
Scepter
;
and
so
shall
we
be
Kings
and
Priests
in
our
Souls
unto
God
in
the
Heavens
.
There
are
no
words
or
syllables
in
this
Text
that
deny
intervening
Rewards
to
the
Saints
before
that
day
;
which
it
must
have
done
before
it
could
serve
his
Opposers
purpose
.
If
the
Souls
of
Men
past
their
Tryal
as
soon
as
they
are
dead
,
what
needs
any
other
day
of
Judgment
;
Will
Christ
try
Men
after
Sentence
?
I
have
proved
already
,
The
Souls
of
Men
cannot
be
kill'd
,
and
so
cannot
die
;
and
that
the
Souls
of
Men
at
death
do
return
to
the
Lord
;
and
other
things
relating
to
its
partial
Judgment
which
it
shall
receive
.
Who
art
thou
that
reasonest
against
God
?
wilt
thou
teach
God
how
he
shall
govern
the
World
,
or
what
Judgments
he
shall
use
upon
Men
?
It
is
enough
that
God
hath
intimated
his
Will
,
there
shall
be
such
Judgments
,
and
we
are
humbly
to
believe
he
hath
reason
for
his
so
doing
,
although
our
shallow
brains
cannot
comprehend
it
.
Posito

W.
If
this
Answer
will
not
satisfie
you
,
I
doubt
not
but
the
righteous
Judge
will
satisfie
you
of
the
reason
of
that
Great
Day
,
notwithstanding
particular
judgments
upon
Men
,
and
the
spirits
of
Men
before
that
Day
.
Come
ye
blessed
of
my
Father
,
inherit
the
Kingdom
prepared
for
you
,
from
the
foundation
of
the
world
;
depart
from
me
ye
cursed
into
everlasting
fire
,
prepared
for
the
Devil
and
his
Angels
:
If
Christ
be
Preached
,
that
he
rose
from
the
Dead
;
how
say
some
among
you
,
that
there
is
no
Resurrection
of
the
Dead
,
but
if
there
be
no
Resurrection
of
the
Dead
,
then
is
Christ
not
risen
,
and
if
Christ
be
not
risen
,
then
is
the
Christian
Religion
both
vain
and
false
.
and
then
they
also
which
are
faln
asleep
in
Christ
are
perished
.
If
after
the
manner
of
Men
I
have
fought
with
Beasts
at
what
advantageth
it
me
if
the
Dead
rise
not
?
Let
us
eat
and
drink
for
too
morrow
we
die
.
Then
the
Apostle
finds
fault
with
Communications
which
call
in
Question
the
Belief
of
the
Resurrection
of
the
Dead
.
At
the
last
Trump
the
Dead
shall
be
raised
Incorruptible
,
and
we
[
who
are
then
alive
]
shall
be
changed
,
and
then
shall
Death
be
swallowed
up
in
Victory
.
And
therefore
my
beloved
Brethren
,
be
ye
stedfast
,
always
abounding
in
the
work
of
the
Lord
;
forasmuch
as
ye
know
,
that
your
Labour
is
not
in
Vain
in
the
Lord
knowing
that
your
Labour
is
not
in
Vain
in
the
Lord
.
Then
those
who
are
fallen
asleep
in
Christ
are
perished
That
in
the
course
of
this
Text
,
St
intends
to
prove
the
Resurrection
of
Christ
,
and
to
teach
,
that
if
his
Resurrection
was
not
true
,
then
all
those
who
are
fallen
asleep
in
Christ
should
be
perished
.
and
then
those
who
are
fallen
asleep
in
Christ
are
perished
.
and
those
who
are
fallen
asleep
in
Christ
are
perished
.
that
those
who
are
fallen
asleep
in
Christ
may
be
perished
,
and
those
who
are
fallen
asleep
in
Christ
are
perished
.
There
is
no
Way
or
Means
for
expiation
of
your
Sins
,
and
removal
of
the
Curse
,
besides
the
Death
of
Christ
.
He
denies
that
the
Apostle
●ntends
by
these
Reasonings
to
prove
immediately
the
Resurrection
of
all
Men
,
but
only
as
their
Resurrection
comes
in
upon
the
Resurrection
of
Jesus
Christ
,
which
is
the
only
thing
in
these
Verses
now
named
,
that
the
Apostle
was
proving
.
That
if
the
Bodies
of
the
Saints
do
never
rise
,
then
ye
are
in
your
Sins
,
and
those
that
are
dead
in
Christ
are
perished
.
The
Hour
is
coming
,
in
the
which
all
that
are
in
the
Graves
shall
hear
his
Voice
and
shall
come
forth
;
they
that
have
done
Good
to
the
Resurrection
of
Life
,
and
they
that
have
done
Evil
to
the
Resurrection
of
Damnation
.
That
because
it
is
certain
that
Christ
is
risen
,
that
therefore
the
Souls
of
Men
are
mortal
.
then
all
those
who
are
fallen
asleep
are
perished
If
after
the
manner
of
Men
I
have
fought
with
Beasts
at
what
advantageth
it
me
if
the
Dead
rise
not
?
Let
us
eat
and
drink
for
too
Morrow
we
die
.
Whatsoever
Sufferings
I
undergo
for
Christ's
sake
in
this
World
,
they
will
advantage
me
nothing
,
if
the
Dead
rise
not
,
and
then
we
need
no
more
in
this
World
,
but
to
eat
and
drink
and
die
,
and
there
's
an
and
of
us
.
The
Trumpet
shall
sound
,
and
the
Dead
shall
be
rais'd
uncorruptible
,
and
we
[
who
are
then
alive
]
shall
be
changed
Therefore
my
beloved
Brethren
,
be
ye
stedfast
,
unmoveable
,
always
abounding
in
the
work
of
the
Lord
,
for
as
much
as
you
know
your
Labour
is
not
in
Vain
in
the
Lord
When
thou
makest
a
Feast
,
do
not
only
bid
thy
Friends
and
rich
Neighbours
,
who
are
likely
to
make
thee
a
Recompence
;
but
bid
also
the
Poor
,
the
Maimed
,
the
Lame
and
the
Blind
,
who
cannot
Recompense
thee
,
and
therefore
for
thy
so
doing
,
thou
shalt
be
Recompensed
at
the
Resurrection
of
the
Just
.
That
Men
for
their
good
Works
done
in
this
World
,
shall
be
Recompensed
at
or
soon
after
their
Deaths
.
I
would
not
have
you
to
be
ignorant
,
Brethren
,
concerning
them
that
are
asleep
,
that
ye
sorrow
not
,
even
as
others
which
have
no
hope
:
For
if
we
believe
that
Jesus
died
,
and
rose
again
;
even
so
them
also
that
sleep
in
Jesus
,
will
God
bring
with
him
When
this
Man
had
eaten
,
the
Spirit
came
again
to
him
.
his
Spirit
came
again
,
and
he
revived
.
Where
in
raising
the
Widows
Son
,
prayed
,
Lord
let
this
Childs
Soul
come
into
him
again
Are
not
able
to
kill
the
Soul
.
AFter
Mr.
's
finishing
the
Treatise
before
considered
,
he
super-adds
thereunto
,
and
subjoyns
to
it
,
a
Declamatory
Discourse
,
which
he
intitles
,
which
is
not
much
less
in
bulk
than
his
Treatise
before
answered
.
Vpon
the
Perusal
thereof
,
I
find
his
Triumphal
Arch
principally
founded
,
the
one
end
of
it
upon
the
Souls
Seperate
Subsistence
,
and
the
other
end
upon
the
Souls
going
to
Heaven
immediately
after
Death
;
both
which
I
conceive
to
be
Precarious
Assumptions
,
I
am
sure
not
granted
by
his
Opposers
,
and
I
believe
not
sufficiently
proved
by
his
Arguments
.
I
find
that
in
this
Discourse
he
repeats
a
third
time
the
four
Texts
of
Scripture
which
he
thinks
do
most
strongly
prove
his
Opinion
:
's
Parable
of
and
his
Relation
of
the
I
acknowledge
my self
averse
from
making
often
Repetitions
of
the
same
things
,
and
therefore
do
refuse
to
follow
his
Example
or
Practice
in
this
Point
,
but
rather
make
choice
to
refer
my
Reader
to
such
Answers
as
are
before
given
to
these
Arguments
in
those
places
,
where
he
hath
twice
before
propounded
them
.
I
do
not
find
that
in
this
Discourse
he
hath
added
any
new
Arguments
to
those
which
are
produced
in
his
former
Treatise
,
so
as
there
are
no
new
Proofs
propounded
in
this
whence
I
am
apt
thereupon
to
surmise
that
he
doth
and
because
his
Triumphal
Building
seems
to
be
principally
founded
upon
the
two
before-named
Assertions
,
I
collect
that
if
the
rain
descend
violently
upon
it
,
the
winds
shake
it
,
the
floods
happen
to
beat
upon
it
,
this
Triumphal
Edifice
will
be
more
likely
to
fall
than
to
stand
;
because
the
ground
upon
which
it
is
raised
,
seems
over
soft
and
sandy
for
the
support
thereof
;
and
for
that
the
foundations
of
it
are
not
digged
deep
enough
by
such
a
Search
into
the
Scriptures
,
as
might
make
it
appear
that
the
Doctrine
is
built
upon
a
strong
Stream
or
clear
Current
of
Scripture
Testimonies
,
somewhat
apparently
or
clearly
attesting
the
Truth
thereof
in
some
such
places
,
where
there
was
a
Design
of
Teaching
concerning
the
Future
State
of
Men
after
Death
.
I
do
not
conceive
that
there
was
a
Design
of
speaking
of
such
a
Future
State
in
any
of
the
four
Texts
last
before
quoted
,
of
and
St.
and
therefore
I
do
not
find
any
great
strength
of
Conviction
in
them
.
I
shall
therefore
pass
over
these
and
all
the
rest
of
Mr.
's
Discourse
of
without
speaking
any
farther
thereunto
;
because
it
seems
not
greatly
material
towards
the
farther
proof
of
that
Question
which
is
now
disputed
between
us
:
resolving
here
to
finish
my
Observations
upon
this
with
a
hearty
to
my
Intelligent
Reader
de
Anima
Hieronimus
Rorarius
I
believe
the
Resurrection
of
the
Dead
,
and
the
Life
Everlasting
,
The
Resurrection
of
the
Dead
Those
who
fear
God
,
and
work
Righteousness
,
shall
by
Christ
be
raised
up
at
the
last
Day
in
their
full
of
Soul
and
Body
,
and
in
their
own
Persons
shall
receive
Rewards
according
to
their
Works
done
,
and
their
Faith
professed
in
this
World
;
and
that
the
like
measure
shalt
be
dealt
to
the
Wicked
at
the
Resurrection
of
the
last
Day
,
whose
Punishments
shall
be
equally
distributed
to
their
Persons
,
as
is
before
said
to
be
done
in
the
case
of
the
former
Raised
and
Righteous
Persons
.
