A86451 The grand prerogative of humane nature namely, the souls naturall or native immortality, and freedome from corruption, shewed by many arguments, and also defended against the rash and rude conceptions of a late presumptuous authour, who hath adventured to impugne it.

why_o a_o soul_n may_v be_v sensible_a of_o a_o spirit_n be_v because_o the_o soul_n be_v spiritual_a and_o thereby_o prepare_v to_o receive_v a_o impression_n from_o it_o and_o also_o be_v

may_v be_v see_v easy_a than_o any_o spirit_n can_v because_o a_o sound_n be_v material_a and_o therefore_o one_o degree_n near_o to_o visibility_n then_o a_o spirit_n and_o for_o this_o cause_n

the_o see_n of_o a_o sound_n there_o be_v but_o one_o out_o of_o all_o this_o i_o deduce_v that_o if_o the_o object_n be_v spiritual_a the_o faculty_n perceive_v must_v be_v no_o less_o three_o the_o soul_n do_v not_o entertain_v material_a object_n after_o a_o material_a manner_n but_o contrariwise_o after_o a_o manner_n immaterial_a for_o it_o abstract_n they_o from_o the_o dross_n of_o matter_n

see_v again_o that_o the_o manner_n of_o the_o soul_n operation_n even_o upon_o thing_n material_a be_v immaterial_a therefore_o the_o manner_n of_o be_v of_o it_o must_v be_v also_o immaterial_a the_o impression_n declare_v the_o figure_n of_o the_o seal_n if_o then_o the_o soul_n impression_n upon_o material_a object_n be_v spiritual_a the_o soul_n itself_o be_v also_o spiritual_a the_o

the_o reprehend_a with_o great_a force_n than_o it_o can_v be_v cast_v upon_o they_o by_o he_o or_o any_o man_n now_o although_o it_o be_v a_o thing_n not_o evident_a that_o the_o spirit_n seem_v to_o

which_o by_o divine_a appointment_n do_v act_n in_o their_o behalf_n and_o likeness_n yet_o even_o by_o that_o it_o will_v appear_v that_o those_o soul_n be_v still_o alive_a for_o god_n himself_o do_v often_o appear_v by_o such_o deputy_n and_o manifest_v himself_o to_o moses_n and_o abraham_n by_o the_o apparition_n of_o his_o angel_n but_o yet_o it_o be_v a_o thing_n no_o less_o reasonable_a to_o judge_v that_o they_o be_v humane_a spirit_n that_o make_v a_o apparition_n in_o themselves_o or_o at_o the_o least_o in_o their_o deputy_n then_o to_o judge_v that_o they_o be_v spirit_n wherefore_o whoso_o question_n be_v whether_o these_o appear_a spirit_n be_v soul_n or_o no_o but_o rather_o delude_v devil_n put_v on_o their_o likeness_n may_v as_o well_o doubt_v whether_o on_o

reason_n give_v because_o it_o be_v not_o unlikely_a that_o soul_n which_o have_v so_o much_o deal_n in_o the_o world_n during_o the_o time_n of_o their_o habitation_n in_o the_o body_n and_o

say_v that_o although_o the_o soul_n after_o separation_n from_o the_o body_n be_v not_o a_o person_n humane_a or_o a_o entity_n complete_a yet_o still_o have_v it_o a_o stable_a subsistence_n and_o leave_v not_o to_o be_v a_o substance_n intellectual_a or_o a_o spirit_n wherefore_o it_o do_v not_o follow_v that_o because_o the_o soul_n be_v not_o a_o person_n or_o a_o complete_a entity_n after_o separation_n that_o therefore_o it_o can_v have_v no_o action_n but_o must_v either_o sleep_v or_o die_v the_o soul_n be_v it_o separate_v or_o unite_v be_v a_o spirit_n a_o spirit_n be_v

miserable_a but_o of_o christian_a man_n be_v so_o and_o therefore_o let_v the_o soul_n be_v never_o so_o happy_a after_o death_n yet_o if_o there_o shall_v be_v no_o resurrection_n the_o man_n can_v be_v never_o otherwise_o then_o miserable_a yea_o far_o more_o miserable_a than_o any_o other_o man_n because_o in_o this_o life_n they_o shall_v be_v afflict_v in_o a_o high_a degree_n than_o other_o and_o in_o the_o next_o they_o shall_v not_o be_v at_o all_o you_o will_v say_v what_o matter_n be_v it_o if_o the_o man_n be_v miserable_a in_o this_o world_n and_o never_o happy_a in_o any_o world_n so_o the_o soul_n in_o the_o next_o world_n be_v make_v happy_a in_o opposition_n to_o this_o i_o say_v yes_o it_o be_v a_o matter_n and_o a_o very_a great_a matter_n also_o if_o we_o will_v weigh_v
