by_o some_o say_n of_o the_o father_n that_o after_o the_o guilt_n of_o sin_n be_v forgive_v there_o remain_v a_o obligation_n to_o undergo_v punishment_n but_o these_o have_v be_v answer_v often_o enough_o and_o be_v no_o answer_n to_o the_o argument_n of_o the_o preservative_n and_o therefore_o i_o be_o not_o concern_v about_o they_o i_o ask_v far_o why_o they_o call_v purgatory_n which_o be_v a_o place_n of_o punishment_n in_o the_o other_o world_n a_o temporal_a punishment_n which_o be_v a_o abuse_n of_o the_o language_n of_o scripture_n which_o make_v this_o world_n temporal_a 4.18_o and_o the_o next_o world_n eternal_a the_o thing_n which_o be_v see_v be_v temporal_a but_o the_o thing_n which_o be_v not_o see_v be_v eternal_a and_o therefore_o temporal_a punishment_n signify_v the_o punishment_n of_o this_o world_n but_o the_o unseen_a punishment_n as_o well_o as_o the_o unseen_a reward_n of_o the_o next_o world_n be_v eternal_a which_o be_v a_o demonstration_n that_o

the_o argument_n and_o to_o pervert_v it_o for_o he_o shall_v at_o least_o have_v add_v there_o be_v no_o purgatory_n unless_o it_o be_v eternal_a but_o his_o answer_n to_o this_o be_v extreme_o pleasant_a p._n 76._o st._n paul_n never_o teach_v that_o all_o thing_n that_o be_v not_o see_v or_o of_o another_o world_n be_v eternal_a or_o else_o god_n will_v be_v eternal_o judge_v and_o so_o

shall_v never_o die_v now_o i_o desire_v to_o know_v the_o difference_n between_o live_v and_o die_v and_o perish_v in_o the_o next_o world._n for_o bad_a man_n do_v not_o cease_v to_o be_v nor_o lose_v all_o sense_n in_o the_o next_o world_n no_o more_o than_o good_a man_n and_o therefore_o life_n can_v only_o signify_v a_o state_n of_o happiness_n and_o death_n a_o state_n of_o misery_n now_o if_o good_a man_n must_v not_o perish_v must_v not_o die_v in_o the_o next_o world_n they_o must_v not_o go_v to_o purgatory_n which_o be_v as_o much_o perish_a as_o much_o die_a as_o hell_n

who_o believe_v a_o purgatory-fire_n wherein_o he_o shall_v be_v torment_v god_n know_v how_o long_o for_o his_o sin_n can_v prove_v that_o a_o penitent_a sinner_n shall_v not_o be_v damn_v for_o
