A49841	An argument concerning the human souls seperate [sic] subsistance	Layton, Henry, 1622-1705.	1699 (1699)	Wing L755A; ESTC R34962	12,820	17

soul_n in_o separation_n one_o from_o another_o can_v think_v or_o love_n or_o do_v any_o thing_n else_o whatsoever_o and_o i_o desire_v to_o be_v inform_v of_o the_o contrary_a by_o any_o that_o know_v of_o such_o thing_n separately_z do_v and_o without_o the_o conjunction_n of_o they_o both_o together_o p._n 56._o he_o say_v god_n be_v not_o praise_v by_o body_n but_o by_o soul_n i_o reply_v not_o by_o soul_n without_o body_n but_o by_o man_n he_o be_v praise_v during_o the_o conjunction_n of_o their_o soul_n and_o body_n but_o by_o the_o break_n of_o that_o union_n all_o human_a action_n loose_v their_o power_n and_o performance_n which_o by_o the_o resurrection_n shall_v at_o last_o be_v restore_v with_o great_a capacity_n than_o before_o be_v enjoy_v he_o say_v he_o desire_v to_o love_n god_n perpetual_o and_o for_o ever_o i_o can_v blame_v he_o for_o it_o for_o whilst_o he_o can_v do_v so_o he_o shall_v have_v a_o perpetual_a security_n from_o the_o st●oke_n of_o death_n concern_v which_o the_o hymn_n of_o hezekiah_n when_o he_o be_v draw_v out_o of_o the_o jaw_n of_o death_n do_v sufficient_o instruct_v we_o he_o say_v he_o can_v desire_v any_o good_a but_o god_n will_v it_o as_o much_o or_o more_o i_o reply_v he_o may_v lawful_o desire_v a_o good_a and_o large_a estate_n with_o design_n and_o intent_n to_o destribute_v liberal_o to_o the_o poor_a but_o neither_o i_o nor_o he_o do_v think_v god_n oblige_v to_o will_n as_o he_o will_v in_o this_o point_n or_o many_o other_o like_o occasion_n p._n 57_o he_o demand_v will_v god_n give_v man_n a_o desire_n to_o a_o good_a thing_n and_o not_o give_v he_o the_o good_a thing_n desire_v i_o reply_v god_n give_v and_o allow_v to_o man_n the_o desire_n of_o many_o good_a thing_n which_o he_o give_v they_o not_o the_o power_n to_o attain_v unto_o he_o quote_v our_o lord_n direction_n to_o pray_v and_o promise_n that_o whatsoever_o we_o pray_v for_o in_o his_o name_n he_o will_v give_v we_o whence_o he_o may_v as_o well_o warrant_v the_o good_a success_n of_o a_o prayer_n request_v he_o to_o give_v we_o fortunatus_n purse_n or_o something_o equivalent_a thereunto_o p._n 51._o he_o say_v there_o be_v in_o the_o scripture_n sufficient_a evidence_n if_o not self_o evident_a proof_n that_o the_o soul_n be_v immortal_a i_o reply_v i_o have_v not_o yet_o be_v so_o fortunate_a as_o to_o meet_v with_o sufficient_a evidence_n to_o that_o purpose_n in_o the_o scripture_n and_o much_o less_o with_o those_o self-evident_a proof_n which_o he_o say_v may_v be_v find_v there_o and_o i_o lay_v very_o much_o blame_v upon_o he_o for_o not_o produce_v such_o evidence_n and_o self-proving_a argument_n as_o he_o know_v to_o be_v there_o for_o the_o conviction_n of_o those_o honest_a heart_n for_o who_o sake_n he_o have_v invent_v all_o these_o argument_n of_o his_o own_o and_o which_o have_v very_o little_a force_n or_o coercion_n in_o they_o the_o three_o argument_n which_o he_o call_v his_o last_o for_o proof_n of_o the_o soul_n immortality_n he_o draw_v from_o the_o nature_n and_o manner_n of_o the_o resurrection_n and_o say_v that_o if_o the_o soul_n die_v and_o perish_v with_o the_o body_n then_o at_o the_o resurrection_n the_o soul_n which_o rise_v can_v be_v the_o same_o with_o that_o which_o die_v but_o one_o new_o create_v for_o inform_v the_o rise_a body_n and_o which_o can_v be_v conscious_a of_o what_o be_v do_v in_o the_o person_n former_o dead_a and_o so_o not_o deserve_v reward_n or_o punishment_n for_o work_n do_v by_o the_o person_n now_o rise_v in_o his_o former_a soul_n and_o body_n to_o this_o i_o reply_v that_o nothing_o can_v have_v a_o real_a and_o true_a resurrection_n to_o life_n which_o be_v not_o real_o and_o true_o dead_a before_o and_o therefore_o if_o the_o soul_n have_v a_o real_a and_o true_a resurrection_n at_o the_o last_o day_n it_o must_v have_v have_v a_o true_a and_o real_a death_n perish_v or_o extinguishment_n before_o that_o time_n whence_o if_o it_o be_v to_o have_v a_o true_a and_o future_a resurrection_n it_o must_v die_v and_o perish_v with_o the_o body_n who_o amicable_a concomitant_a it_o always_o be_v both_o in_o the_o procreation_n at_o the_o birth_n in_o the_o life_n at_o the_o death_n and_o in_o the_o resurrection_n of_o the_o person_n and_o as_o to_o the_o sameness_n of_o that_o soul_n with_o that_o that_o perish_a at_o the_o death_n it_o shall_v be_v as_o much_o the_o same_o as_o the_o body_n rise_v shall_v be_v the_o same_o with_o that_o that_o die_v and_o herein_o i_o do_v further_o conceive_v that_o we_o can_v proper_o hold_v a_o discourse_n concern_v the_o resurrection_n of_o the_o body_n or_o the_o soul_n separately_z consider_v there_o be_v nothing_o either_o in_o reason_n or_o scripture_n upon_o which_o man_n can_v ground_v their_o apprehension_n of_o a_o resurrection_n of_o either_o of_o they_o separate_v from_o the_o other_o but_o if_o we_o will_v speak_v proper_o and_o true_o of_o the_o resurrection_n we_o must_v say_v with_o st._n paul_n 1_o cor._n 15._o that_o it_o be_v the_o resurrection_n of_o the_o dead_a not_o of_o the_o body_n or_o soul_n but_o of_o the_o person_n which_o comprehend_v they_o both_o as_o the_o two_o main_a and_o constituent_a part_n thereof_o he_o say_v there_o v._o 32._o if_o the_o dead_a rise_v not_o let_v we_o eat_v and_o drink_v for_o too_o morrow_n we_o die_v and_o there_o be_v a_o end_n of_o we_o than_o he_o demand_v if_o the_o dead_a be_v raise_v with_o what_o body_n do_v they_o come_v without_o make_o any_o enquiry_n concern_v the_o soul_n which_o i_o conceive_v he_o pass_v as_o a_o necessary_a principle_n which_o must_v give_v life_n to_o the_o body_n and_o constitute_v the_o ra●sed_a person_n the_o apostle_n creed_n in_o our_o language_n deliver_v as_o a_o article_n of_o faith_n the_o resurrection_n of_o the_o body_n but_o in_o so_o do_v it_o the_o art_n from_o its_o original_n both_o of_o the_o greek_a and_o latin_a language_n in_o the_o express_a word_n of_o both_o which_o it_o be_v call_v and_o term_v the_o resurrection_n of_o the_o flesh_n i_o find_v no_o sufficient_a reason_n why_o this_o variance_n from_o our_o original_n shall_v be_v continue_v among_o we_o and_o do_v therefore_o wish_v the_o correction_n or_o amendment_n of_o it_o believe_v withal_o that_o the_o best_a and_o most_o proper_a expression_n of_o our_o faith_n in_o this_o point_n use_v in_o the_o niceen-creed_n by_o the_o word_n i_o look_v for_o the_o resurrection_n of_o the_o dead_a by_o which_o i_o conceive_v be_v

uneasiness_n of_o a_o doubt_a condition_n and_o upon_o perusal_n of_o his_o treatise_n do_v find_v that_o it_o meddle_v not_o with_o this_o subject_a until_o the_o very_a latter_a end_n of_o the_o pamphlet_n or_o the_o 48_o page_n of_o it_o from_o whence_o my_o examination_n begin_v and_o thereby_o i_o find_v that_o he_o produce_v three_o argument_n for_o the_o soul_n separate_v subsistance_n the_o two_o first_o whereof_o i_o think_v to_o be_v fanciful_a or_o enthusiastic_a and_o therefore_o i_o have_v make_v very_o short_a answer_n to_o they_o but_o his_o three_o argument_n i_o find_v to_o be_v more_o sober_a and_o substantial_a and_o draw_v from_o two_o principal_a topic_n the_o first_o of_o they_o from_o the_o resurrection_n and_o the_o second_o from_o god_n create_v of_o soul_n for_o man_n and_o to_o each_o of_o they_o i_o have_v make_v a_o distinct_a answer_n and_o more_o at_o large_a then_o to_o both_o his_o former_a and_o therein_o have_v satisfy_v my_o own_o

believe_v that_o the_o precept_n deliver_v in_o moses_n law_n of_o not_o see_v sin_n or_o error_n in_o our_o brethren_n without_o reprove_v they_o for_o it_o be_v in_o full_a practice_n at_o this_o
