my_o design_n from_o this_o text_n be_v to_o draw_v some_o useful_a corollary_n or_o conclusion_n from_o this_o assertion_n of_o the_o apostle_n that_o whilst_o we_o be_v in_o these_o body_n we_o be_v detain_v from_o our_o happiness_n and_o that_o so_o soon_o as_o ever_o we_o depart_v out_o of_o they_o we_o shall_v be_v admit_v to_o the_o possession_n and_o enjoyment_n of_o it_o and_o they_o be_v these_o 1._o this_o assertion_n show_v we_o the_o vanity_n and_o falsehood_n of_o that_o opinion_n or_o rather_o dream_n concern_v the_o sleep_n of_o the_o soul_n from_o the_o time_n of_o death_n till_o the_o general_a resurrection_n this_o be_v chief_o ground_v upon_o that_o frequent_a metaphor_n in_o scripture_n by_o which_o death_n be_v resemble_v to_o sleep_v and_o those_o that_o be_v dead_a be_v say_v to_o be_v fall_v asleep_o but_o this_o metaphor_n be_v no_o where_o in_o scripture_n that_o i_o know_v of_o apply_v to_o the_o soul_n but_o to_o the_o body_n rest_v in_o the_o

assertion_n here_o in_o the_o text_n that_o while_o we_o be_v in_o the_o body_n we_o be_v absent_a from_o the_o lord_n and_o that_o so_o soon_o as_o we_o depart_v out_o of_o the_o body_n we_o shall_v be_v present_a with_o the_o lord_n for_o sure_o to_o be_v with_o the_o lord_n must_v signify_v a_o state_n of_o happiness_n which_o sleep_n be_v not_o but_o only_o of_o inactivity_n beside_o that_o the_o apostle_n argument_n will_v be_v very_o flat_a and_o it_o will_v be_v but_o a_o cold_a encouragement_n against_o the_o fear_n of_o death_n that_o so_o soon_o as_o we_o be_v dead_a we_o shall_v fall_v asleep_a and_o become_v insensible_a but_o the_o apostle_n use_v it_o as_o a_o argument_n why_o we_o shall_v be_v willing_a to_o die_v as_o soon_o as_o god_n please_v and_o the_o soon_o the_o better_a because_o so_o soon_o as_o we_o quit_v these_o body_n we_o shall_v be_v present_a with_o the_o lord_n that_o be_v admit_v to_o the_o blissful_a sight_n and_o enjoyment_n of_o he_o and_o while_o we_o abide_v in_o the_o body_n we_o be_v detain_v from_o our_o happiness_n but_o if_o our_o soul_n shall_v sleep_v as_o well_o as_o our_o body_n till_o the_o general_a resurrection_n it_o be_v all_o one_o whether_o we_o continue_v in_o the_o body_n or_o not_o as_o to_o any_o happiness_n we_o shall_v enjoy_v in_o the_o mean_a time_n which_o be_v direct_o contrary_a to_o the_o main_a scope_n of_o the_o apostle_n argument_n 2._o this_o assertion_n of_o the_o apostle_n do_v perfect_o conclude_v against_o the_o feign_a purgatory_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n which_o suppose_v the_o far_o great_a number_n of_o true_a and_o faithful_a christian_n of_o those_o who_o die_v in_o the_o lord_n and_o have_v obtain_v eternal_a redemption_n by_o he_o from_o hell_n not_o to_o pass_v immediate_o into_o a_o state_n of_o happiness_n but_o to_o be_v detain_v in_o the_o suburb_n of_o hell_n in_o extremity_n of_o torment_n equal_a to_o that_o of_o hell_n for_o degree_n though_o not_o for_o

suppose_v indeed_o some_o very_a few_o holy_a person_n especial_o those_o who_o suffer_v martyrdom_n to_o be_v so_o perfect_a at_o their_o departure_n out_o of_o the_o body_n as_o to_o pass_v immediate_o into_o heaven_n because_o they_o need_v no_o purgation_n but_o most_o christian_n they_o suppose_v to_o die_v so_o imperfect_a that_o they_o stand_v in_o need_n of_o be_v purge_v and_o according_a to_o the_o degree_n of_o their_o imperfection_n be_v to_o be_v detain_v a_o short_a or_o a_o long_a time_n in_o purgatory_n but_o now_o beside_o that_o there_o be_v no_o text_n in_o scripture_n from_o whence_o any_o such_o state_n can_v probable_o be_v conclude_v as_o be_v acknowledge_v by_o many_o learned_a man_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n and_o even_o that_o text_n which_o they_o have_v most_o insist_v upon_o they_o shall_v be_v save_v yet_o so_o as_o by_o fire_n be_v give_v up_o by_o they_o as_o insufficient_a to_o conclude_v the_o thing_n estius_n be_v very_o glad_a to_o get_v off_o it_o by_o say_v there_o be_v nothing_o in_o it_o against_o purgatory_n why_o no_o body_n pretend_v that_o but_o we_o may_v reasonable_o expect_v that_o there_o shall_v be_v

scripture_n for_o purgatory_n there_o be_v a_o great_a many_o thing_n against_o it_o and_o utter_o inconsistent_a with_o it_o in_o the_o parable_n of_o the_o rich_a man_n and_o lazarus_n which_o be_v design_v to_o represent_v to_o we_o the_o different_a state_n of_o good_a and_o bad_a man_n in_o another_o world_n there_o be_v not_o the_o least_o intimation_n of_o purgatory_n but_o that_o good_a
