A58888 A discoverie of the vvorld to come according to the Scriptures the first part thereof being didactical, or such as contains a form of positive doctrine : wherein 1. The doctrine of the world to come is propounded, explicated, confirmed, and applyed in a more familiar method then formerly hath been observed, 2. The doctrine of millenaries, touching a new reformed church in the latter times, which they call a new world, is confuted, 3. Sundry passages of holy writ are interpreted in reference to the world to come, which have been formerly wrested, and forced in a wrong sense / written by J. Seager... Seager, J.

the_o second_o adam_n 2._o the_o reason_n why_o dead_a man_n and_o woman_n shall_v rise_v again_o be_v because_o they_o have_v reasonable_a soul_n live_v while_o their_o body_n be_v dead_a as_o
