scripture_n and_o the_o text_n which_o i_o cite_v i_o must_v again_o recite_v to_o which_o i_o shall_v also_o add_v some_o other_o my_o doctrine_n be_v this_o first_o that_o the_o elect_a in_o

point_n in_o the_o scripture_n and_o what_o be_v the_o harmony_n therein_o of_o the_o old_a and_o new_a testament_n and_o first_o because_o the_o word_n immortal_a soul_n be_v not_o find_v in_o the_o scripture_n the_o question_n be_v to_o be_v decide_v by_o evident_a consequence_n from_o the_o scripture_n the_o scripture_n say_v of_o god_n express_o 1_o tim._n 6.16_o that_o he_o only_o have_v immortality_n and_o dwell_v in_o inaccessible_a light_n hence_o it_o follow_v that_o the_o soul_n of_o man_n be_v not_o of_o its_o own_o nature_n immortal_a but_o by_o grace_n that_o be_v to_o say_v by_o the_o gift_n of_o god_n and_o then_o the_o question_n will_v be_v whether_o this_o grace_n or_o gift_n of_o god_n be_v bestow_v on_o the_o soul_n in_o the_o creation_n and_o conception_n of_o the_o man_n or_o afterward_o by_o his_o redemption_n another_o question_n will_v be_v in_o what_o sense_n immortality_n of_o torment_n can_v be_v call_v a_o gift_n when_o all_o gift_n suppose_v the_o

just_a it_o follow_v hence_o that_o the_o reward_n of_o the_o elect_n be_v not_o before_o the_o resurrection_n what_o reward_n then_o enjoy_v a_o separate_a soul_n in_o heaven_n or_o any_o where_o
