sufficient_a argument_n of_o this_o nature_n now_o what_o evidence_n of_o the_o soul_n immortality_n may_v be_v draw_v from_o the_o holy_a scripture_n ans_fw-fr the_o scripture_n be_v full_a of_o evidence_n to_o manifest_v this_o truth_n and_o first_o divine_a testimony_n the_o preacher_n tell_v we_o that_o when_o the_o body_n die_v and_o return_v to_o the_o dust_n the_o soul_n vanish_v not_o but_o return_v to_o god_n that_o give_v it_o 12.7_o eccles_n 12.7_o and_o christ_n himself_o witness_v that_o the_o soul_n can_v be_v kill_v by_o all_o the_o tyrant_n in_o the_o world_n 8.44_o mat._n 10.28_o mark_n 8.44_o though_o they_o kill_v the_o body_n but_o god_n can_v cast_v both_o body_n and_o soul_n into_o hell_n fire_n where_o the_o worm_n never_o die_v and_o the_o fire_n never_o go_v out_o &_o so_o the_o soul_n torment_v in_o hell_n fire_n for_o evermore_o must_v needs_o be_v immortal_a and_o never_o die_v quest_n 17._o be_v there_o no_o other_o argument_n in_o scripture_n but_o bare_a testimony_n ans_fw-fr if_o there_o be_v no_o other_o the_o witness_n of_o the_o holy_a spirit_n of_o truth_n be_v sufficient_a to_o witness_v this_o truth_n of_o the_o soul_n immortality_n but_o it_o be_v evident_a by_o other_o argument_n also_o for_o the_o lord_n be_v say_v to_o be_v the_o god_n of_o abraham_n 33._o mat._n 22.31_o 32_o 33._o and_o the_o god_n of_o isaac_n and_o the_o god_n of_o jacob_n not_o the_o god_n of_o the_o dead_a but_o of_o the_o live_n now_o their_o body_n be_v dead_a many_o hundred_o year_n before_o christ_n speak_v this_o therefore_o it_o must_v needs_o follow_v that_o the_o soul_n be_v alive_a and_o so_o they_o have_v not_o mortal_a but_o never_o die_v and_o immortal_a soul_n quest_n 18._o this_o i_o conceive_v be_v a_o good_a argument_n what_o be_v a_o second_o that_o you_o find_v in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n ans_fw-fr the_o witness_n of_o christ_n concern_v the_o penitent_a thief_n upon_o the_o cross_n 23.43_o luk._n 23.43_o that_o he_o shall_v be_v with_o he_o that_o day_n in_o paradise_n now_o this_o can_v not_o be_v in_o respect_n of_o his_o body_n for_o neither_o the_o body_n of_o the_o penitent_a nor_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n be_v that_o day_n in_o paradise_n for_o christ_n body_n be_v take_v down_o from_o the_o cross_n 27.60_o mat._n 27.60_o and_o lay_v in_o a_o new_a sepulchre_n and_o no_o doubt_n the_o body_n of_o the_o penitent_a also_o be_v bury_v and_o therefore_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v that_o christ_n and_o the_o penitent_a shall_v be_v and_o be_v in_o paradise_n in_o their_o soul_n after_o the_o death_n of_o their_o body_n and_o hence_o it_o be_v evident_a that_o the_o soul_n be_v immortal_a and_o die_v not_o with_o the_o body_n as_o some_o wicked_a man_n dream_v quest_n 19_o have_v you_o any_o more_o argument_n in_o scripture_n to_o prove_v this_o ans_fw-fr yes_o there_o may_v be_v many_o more_o but_o i_o will_v note_v but_o a_o few_o and_o this_o you_o may_v take_v for_o another_o even_o the_o practice_n of_o christ_n at_o the_o time_n of_o death_n to_o commend_v in_o soul_n into_o the_o hand_n of_o god_n his_o heavenly_a father_n 23.46_o luk._n 23.46_o father_n into_o thy_o hand_n i_o

my_o spirit_n these_o confirm_v this_o truth_n of_o the_o immortality_n of_o the_o soul_n quest_n 20._o what_o be_v the_o next_o argument_n which_o you_o observe_v in_o scripture_n ans_fw-fr that_o fear_n and_o tremble_a and_o terror_n of_o conscience_n which_o fall_v and_o have_v fall_v upon_o man_n for_o their_o sin_n against_o god_n or_o man_n and_o especial_o the_o fear_n of_o judgement_n to_o come_v as_o that_o of_o belshazzer_n 5.1.5_o dan._n 5.1.5_o when_o he_o see_v the_o hand_n write_v upon_o the_o wall_n which_o make_v his_o kneeâ—_n to_o smite_v one_o against_o another_o and_o
