A49845	Observations upon Mr. Wadsworth's book of the souls immortality and his confutation of the opinion of the souls inactivity to the time of general resurrection, 80.	Layton, Henry, 1622-1705.	1670 (1670)	Wing L758; ESTC R39124	150,070	217

write_v this_o epistle_n because_o the_o apostle_n say_v there_o be_v thing_n in_o heaven_n reconcile_v by_o the_o blood_n of_o the_o cross_n but_o there_o be_v no_o such_o thing_n in_o heaven_n reconcile_v by_o the_o blood_n of_o the_o cross_n except_o they_o be_v the_o soul_n of_o some_o holy_a man_n that_o go_v hence_o then_o he_o express_v a_o desire_n to_o know_v what_o man_n can_v say_v to_o this_o argument_n and_o therefore_o i_o say_v to_o it_o that_o by_o his_o own_o expression_n it_o appear_v he_o say_v he_o know_v not_o what_o for_o he_o say_v he_o know_v not_o that_o there_o be_v any_o other_o thing_n in_o heaven_n which_o need_v reconciliation_n to_o god_n by_o christ_n except_o man_n will_v take_v these_o thing_n to_o be_v the_o soul_n of_o depart_a person_n but_o if_o man_n will_v not_o accept_v of_o this_o mean_v than_o he_o know_v not_o what_o the_o apostle_n can_v mean_v by_o thing_n in_o heaven_n reconcile_v to_o god_n by_o christ_n which_o intend_v no_o more_o than_o that_o he_o do_v not_o otherways_o know_v what_o the_o thing_n in_o heaven_n reconcile_v to_o god_n by_o christ_n may_v mean_v which_o i_o take_v for_o a_o confession_n that_o he_o do_v not_o know_v what_o paul_n mean_v by_o these_o thing_n in_o heaven_n second_o i_o conceive_v he_o do_v not_o know_v that_o there_o be_v any_o soul_n in_o heaven_n because_o if_o he_o do_v he_o shall_v be_v able_a to_o make_v such_o a_o demonstration_n or_o description_n of_o their_o be_v and_o of_o their_o be_v there_o as_o other_o man_n who_o be_v willing_a may_v be_v able_a to_o understand_v and_o conceive_v he_o have_v take_v pain_n to_o write_v this_o treatise_n and_o therein_o have_v already_o produce_v thirteen_o argument_n in_o proof_n of_o this_o tenet_n but_o very_o unsuccessful_o as_o those_o who_o peruse_v these_o observation_n will_v easy_o discover_v the_o peruser_n of_o this_o argument_n will_v i_o think_v easy_o find_v that_o mr._n w._n must_v have_v two_o thing_n grant_v he_o before_o he_o can_v pretend_v to_o prove_v any_o thing_n by_o this_o argument_n first_o that_o there_o be_v no_o thing_n in_o heaven_n which_o need_v reconciliation_n to_o god_n unless_o man_n will_v admit_v that_o humane_a soul_n be_v there_o and_o therefore_o second_o he_o will_v persuade_v man_n to_o admit_v of_o his_o position_n that_o there_o be_v soul_n in_o heaven_n but_o i_o think_v fit_a to_o reject_v both_o these_o proposal_n and_o say_v first_o that_o there_o may_v be_v other_o thing_n in_o heaven_n beside_o soul_n which_o may_v need_v a_o reconciliation_n to_o god_n by_o christ_n and_o second_o to_o conceive_v that_o possible_o or_o even_o probable_o there_o be_v not_o nor_o ever_o be_v any_o humane_a soul_n in_o heaven_n nor_o in_o any_o other_o place_n in_o the_o world_n except_o in_o their_o own_o proper_a and_o peculiar_a body_n here_o mr._n w._n put_v another_o slight_a objection_n against_o his_o own_o opinion_n and_o answer_v it_o p._n 102._o mr._n w._n demand_n if_o there_o be_v any_o thing_n else_o in_o heaven_n beside_o the_o soul_n of_o man_n which_o need_v a_o reconciliation_n to_o god_n what_o be_v those_o thing_n i_o answer_v i_o do_v not_o know_v what_o those_o thing_n be_v and_o alike_o confession_n of_o his_o ignorance_n concern_v this_o subject_a will_v better_o have_v become_v mr._n w._n than_o his_o groundless_a guess_n at_o what_o be_v mean_v in_o this_o text_n by_o st._n paul_n expression_n of_o thing_n in_o heaven_n and_o the_o supply_v his_o ignorance_n therein_o by_o a_o bold_a but_o erroneous_a guest_n that_o by_o thing_n in_o heaven_n st._n paul_n intend_v the_o separate_a soul_n of_o man_n of_o which_o the_o text_n make_v no_o mention_n at_o all_o and_o his_o supposal_n that_o there_o be_v separate_a soul_n have_v no_o better_a foundation_n than_o his_o own_o supposal_n which_o have_v very_o little_a power_n to_o convince_v intelligent_a person_n that_o humane_a soul_n have_v any_o sort_n of_o subsistence_n in_o a_o

argument_n with_o somewhat_o a_o long_a comparison_n between_o the_o law_n and_o the_o gospel_n which_o make_v little_a to_o our_o point_n and_o therefore_o i_o pass_v it_o over_o p._n 104._o mr._n w._n say_v as_o he_o be_v very_o apt_a to_o do_v that_o the_o soul_n or_o spirit_n of_o man_n be_v immortal_a and_o therefore_o it_o be_v a_o very_a great_a truth_n that_o they_o be_v immortal_a and_o add_v those_o soul_n which_o the_o gospel_n reveal_v to_o be_v alive_a out_o of_o their_o body_n be_v thereby_o prove_v to_o be_v immortal_a but_o the_o gospel_n reveal_v that_o the_o soul_n of_o just_a man_n be_v alive_a out_o of_o their_o body_n therefore_o the_o soul_n of_o man_n be_v alive_a out_o of_o their_o body_n therefore_o the_o soul_n of_o man_n be_v immortal_a mr._n w._n say_v the_o gospel_n reveal_v that_o the_o spirit_n of_o just_a man_n be_v alive_a out_o of_o their_o body_n because_o the_o text_n say_v they_o be_v make_v perfect_a and_o there_o be_v no_o perfection_n

so_o much_o of_o this_o text_n as_o seem_v most_o to_o support_v his_o own_o opinion_n and_o therefore_o i_o intend_v to_o quote_v it_o somewhat_o more_o large_o heb._n 12.22_o you_o be_v come_v
