And that our bodies are to rise again, He
shows when He says, " Verily I say unto you,
that the hour cometh, in the which all that are
in the graves shall hear the voice of the Son of
God ; and they that hear shall live." '^ And
[says] the apostle, " For this corruptible must
put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on
immortality." '7 And that we must live soberly
and righteously, he [shows when he] says again,
" Be not deceived : neither adulterers, nor effem-
inate persons, nor abusers of themselves with
mankind, nor fornicators, nor revilers, nor drunk-
ards, nor thieves, can inherit the kingdom of
God." "^ And again, " If the dead rise not, then
is not Christ raised ; our preaching therefore is
vain, and your faith is also vain : ye are yet in
your sins. Then they also that are fallen asleep
in Christ have perished. If in this life only we
have hope in Christ, we are of all men most
miserable. If the dead rise not, let us eat and
drink, for to-morrow we die." "^ But if such be
our condition and feelings, wherein shall we differ
from asses and dogs, who have no care about the
future, but think only of eating, and of indul-
ging ^° such appetites as follow after eating ? For
they are unacquainted with any intelligence
moving within them.
