equivocal_a term_n answ._n they_o have_v change_v g._n fox_n word_n for_o he_o say_v that_o which_o be_v raise_v be_v a_o spiritual_a body_n and_o that_o which_o be_v raise_v be_v dead_a and_o we_o

every_o man_n must_v rise_v with_o two_o body_n if_o that_o body_n that_o be_v terrestrial_a must_v rise_v and_o have_v another_o body_n give_v it_o but_o herein_o his_o ignorance_n be_v see_v and_o again_o he_o and_o john_n horn_n have_v confute_v themselves_o for_o in_o their_o postscript_n they_o say_v that_o the_o apostle_n imply_v plain_o that_o the_o raise_a body_n in_o the_o resurrection_n shall_v not_o be_v flesh_n and_o blood_n then_o how_o be_v it_o that_o they_o have_v plead_v so_o much_o for_o the_o same_o earthly_a body_n that_o die_v to_o rise_v again_o which_o be_v a_o body_n of_o flesh_n and_o blood_n when_o the_o raise_a body_n in_o the_o resurrection_n be_v not_o a_o body_n of_o flesh_n and_o blood_n they_o say_v these_o man_n be_v much_o shut_v up_o in_o babylon_n as_o their_o confusion_n manifest_v a_o accusation_n of_o john_n horn_n and_o tho._n moor_n against_o john_n whitehead_n to_o prove_v he_o a_o reprobate_n p._n 6._o be_v that_o john_n argue_v against_o the_o redemption_n of_o the_o body_n to_o be_v wait_v for_o or_o expect_v after_o death_n and_o say_v the_o apostle_n have_v it_o before_o the_o death_n of_o the_o body_n and_o in_o p._n 10._o they_o
