for_o a_o time_n return_v to_o the_o dust_n and_o afterward_o be_v raise_v up_o again_o from_o the_o dust_n and_o so_o cast_v into_o hell_n torment_n which_o be_v the_o second_o death_n which_o imagination_n be_v very_o strange_a and_o beside_o it_o presuppose_v a_o resurrection_n without_o christ_n or_o else_o you_o must_v imagine_v that_o god_n intend_v in_o his_o say_n to_o adam_n thou_o shall_v die_v that_o his_o soul_n shall_v go_v into_o hell_n torment_n the_o second_o death_n and_o his_o body_n to_o the_o dust_n the_o first_o death_n which_o dagon-like_a image_n shameful_o fall_v before_o the_o ark_n of_o truth_n first_o because_o it_o render_v the_o come_n of_o christ_n the_o great_a of_o god_n gift_n to_o mankind_n who_o come_v not_o to_o condemn_v the_o world_n but_o that_o the_o world_n through_o he_o may_v be_v save_v john_n 3.17_o i_o say_v it_o render_v the_o come_n of_o christ_n to_o be_v the_o only_a cause_n of_o a_o horrible_a judgement_n without_o the_o least_o mixture_n of_o mercy_n upon_o the_o body_n of_o those_o man_n who_o soul_n be_v cast_v into_o hell_n for_o adam_n sin_n that_o be_v to_o say_v christ_n by_o his_o come_n raise_v their_o body_n from_o the_o grave_n where_o they_o be_v without_o the_o fence_n of_o any_o misery_n and_o cast_v they_o without_o any_o cause_n into_o everlasting_a torment_n second_o the_o imagination_n fall_v upon_o the_o account_n of_o paul_n word_n rom._n 5.12_o show_v that_o that_o death_n which_o come_v by_o that_o one_o man_n adam_n sin_n pass_v upon_o all_o wherefore_o it_o can_v be_v mean_v a_o eternal_a death_n upon_o the_o soul_n of_o man_n for_o that_o pass_v not_o upon_o the_o soul_n of_o the_o holy_a father_n as_o aforesaid_a and_o thus_o you_o may_v see_v that_o neither_o of_o these_o imagination_n can_v stand_v either_o according_a to_o scripture_n or_o reason_n and_o therefore_o the_o truth_n only_o remain_v before_o you_o as_o clear_o prove_v by_o these_o consideration_n namely_o that_o adam_n sin_n bring_v but_o the_o first_o death_n as_o have_v be_v show_v and_o that_o man_n love_a darkness_n rather_o than_o the_o light_n be_v the_o cause_n of_o a_o second_o death_n and_o this_o may_v not_o be_v reject_v because_o christ_n himself_o say_v this_o be_v the_o condemnation_n john_n 3.19_o four_o that_o adam_n sin_n bring_v but_o the_o first_o death_n as_o aforesaid_a also_o appear_v from_o the_o apostle_n word_n 1_o cor._n 15.21_o 22._o wherein_o be_v plain_o hold_v forth_o that_o christ_n will_v bring_v all_o man_n to_o a_o resurrection_n from_o that_o death_n which_o come_v upon_o all_o man_n by_o the_o first_o adam_n sin_n wherefore_o it_o can_v possible_o be_v the_o second_o death_n which_o he_o speak_v of_o as_o bring_v by_o adam_n for_o than_o it_o suppose_v all_o man_n bring_v to_o a_o resurrection_n from_o the_o second_o death_n or_o hell_n torment_n and_o so_o preach_v general_a salvation_n which_o be_v folly_n to_o conceive_v so_o then_o with_o the_o prophet_n i_o conclude_v that_o the_o son_n shall_v not_o die_v eternal_o for_o the_o iniquity_n of_o the_o father_n but_o the_o righteousness_n of_o the_o righteous_a shall_v be_v upon_o

be_v upon_o he_o alone_o and_o not_o his_o child_n so_o as_o to_o bring_v it_o to_o eternal_a death_n ezek._n 18.20_o well_o then_o by_o this_o time_n it_o be_v necessary_a to_o mind_n again_o our_o

in_o by_o his_o first_o transgression_n even_o out_o of_o god_n favour_n and_o in_o a_o state_n of_o misery_n condemn_v to_o the_o first_o death_n but_o god_n so_o love_v the_o world_n that_o he_o give_v his_o only_a beget_v son_n to_o taste_v death_n for_o every_o man_n heb._n 2.9_o rom._n 5.18_o and_o so_o destroy_v he_o that_o have_v the_o power_n of_o death_n that_o be_v the_o devil_n and_o thus_o there_o be_v purchase_v by_o christ_n a_o resurrection_n for_o all_o man_n from_o the_o first_o death_n with_o the_o gift_n of_o god_n which_o be_v eternal_a life_n and_o hence_o it_o be_v that_o child_n die_v in_o infancy_n can_v be_v condemn_v at_o the_o last_o day_n for_o of_o such_o be_v the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n mat._n 19.14_o but_o now_o man_n have_v a_o be_v here_o through_o
