understand_v not_o we_o move_v not_o we_o be_v not_o capable_a of_o what_o you_o say_v 1._o to_o this_o i_o answer_v first_o there_o be_v a_o great_a difference_n between_o this_o spiritual_a death_n and_o natural_a death_n for_o first_o those_o who_o be_v natural_o dead_a understand_v nothing_o at_o all_o but_o in_o those_o who_o be_v spiritual_o dead_a there_o be_v a_o life_n of_o understanding_n by_o which_o they_o themselves_o may_v know_v that_o they_o be_v dead_a man_n who_o be_v natural_o dead_a can_v know_v they_o be_v dead_a second_o those_o who_o be_v spiritual_o dead_a may_v understand_v the_o way_n of_o life_n though_o they_o relish_v they_o not_o yet_o they_o may_v hear_v and_o receive_v they_o which_o those_o who_o be_v natural_o dead_a can_v do_v three_o those_o who_o be_v spiritual_o dead_a may_v come_v to_o the_o mean_n to_o the_o pool_n in_o which_o the_o spirit_n breathe_v the_o breath_n of_o life_n whereas_o natural_o dead_a man_n can_v come_v to_o the_o mean_n of_o life_n 2._o second_o i_o answer_v that_o though_o you_o be_v dead_a yet_o hear_v may_v breed_v life_n the_o word_n can_v do_v it_o there_o be_v a_o end_n why_o christ_n speak_v to_o lazarus_n that_o be_v dead_a lazarus_n come_v forth_o because_o his_o word_n wrought_v life_n 11.43.44_o therefore_o though_o you_o be_v dead_a yet_o because_o the_o word_n can_v work_v life_n in_o you_o our_o preach_n be_v not_o in_o vain_a last_o this_o death_n be_v a_o voluntary_a death_n man_n who_o be_v natural_o dead_a can_v put_v life_n into_o themselves_o no_o more_o can_v those_o who_o be_v spiritual_o dead_a when_o they_o have_v make_v themselves_o dead_a man_n die_v this_o death_n in_o a_o free_a manner_n i_o can_v better_o express_v it_o than_o by_o this_o similitude_n a_o man_n that_o be_v about_o to_o commit_v the_o act_n of_o murder_n or_o treason_n his_o friend_n persuade_v he_o not_o to_o do_v it_o for_o if_o he_o do_v he_o be_v but_o a_o dead_a man_n yet_o notwithstanding_o he_o will_v do_v it_o we_o say_v of_o such_o a_o one_o that_o he_o be_v a_o dead_a man_n willing_o so_o we_o tell_v man_n if_o they_o do_v thus_o and_o thus_o that_o they_o go_v

beside_o this_o common_a life_n second_o consider_v the_o matter_n of_o the_o soul_n than_o you_o shall_v see_v that_o the_o soul_n live_v such_o a_o life_n as_o angel_n do_v the_o soul_n of_o good_a
