A44092	Did any of the Heathens believe thus much?
A44092	Do you know in what you were saved, in what you were converted, unless it were in this Flesh?
A44092	Does not that prove, that the Body, which rises, will be no more the same with that which died, than Corn is the same with that from whence it sprung?

A44092	Grotius in his Comment on this place, believes, that when they askt him, whether he was Elias?
A44092	Had our Bodies heretofore many Infirmities?
A44092	He askt his Disciples, Whom do Men say that I am?
A44092	He in Anger replies: What, when there was neither Water nor Earth for Mortar, you could build one; and now you have both, can you not do it?
A44092	He that makes''em of Water, says the, Emperor: Then she: Did God make Man out of Water, and shall he not much more be able to make him of Clay?

A44092	I observe the Word 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉; with what sort of Body as to its Qualities?
A44092	If even they themselves confess that there will be a Resurrection of the Dead, let''em answer us this Question, what that is which died?

A44092	Is it always to remain this Needy and Impure, this Passionate, Lustful, Restive Body?
A44092	Is it not the Body?
A44092	Let''em tell us besides, whether they think that we shall have Bodies in the Resurrection, or not?
A44092	Might not the Heathens receive this Notion from the Jews?
A44092	Now from such Symbols and Comparisons as these, who would not be apt to conclude, that they do not believe the Resurrection of the Same Body?
A44092	Now from whence can we imagine this odd Opinion should arise, and be so generally propagated all over the World?
A44092	Now since the substance of one Man''s Body, becomes the substance of another Man''s Body, how( you will say) can the Bodies of both be rais''d again?
A44092	Now, on what could this Opinion be grounded, but on some broken and imperfect Tradition, concerning the Resurrection of our Bodies?
A44092	Num qui cecidit, non resurgit?
A44092	Nunquid alius fuit quando non agnoscebatnr,& alius quando agnitus est?

A44092	Since they, who once were not did afterwards exist, shall not they much more exist, who once had a being before?
A44092	So St. Jerom indeed has render''d it* Ubi enim Sapiens?
A44092	St. Mark says that he appear''d in another form: But was it really so?
A44092	There is nothing, that God does, but He does for a very good Reason: But who are We, that we should call him to an Account for what he does?
A44092	Ubi Grammateus?
A44092	Ubi causarum Naturalium Scrutatores?
A44092	Was it for this that St. Clement to convince''em was forc''d to insist so much on the Almighty Power of God?
A44092	Was not that contrary to the Nature of a Humane Body?
A44092	Was there heretofore a Law in our Members warring against the Law of our Minds?
A44092	Was this the Doctrine that the Corinthians could not believe?
A44092	Were there heretofore continual Feuas between the Flesh and the Spirit?
A44092	Were they sickly, or maim''d, or crooked, or old, or otherwise deform''d?
A44092	What can be more plain than those Words of the same Apostle a?
A44092	What if he vanish''d away out of the Sight of those that convers''d with him?
A44092	What is this but a broken Tradition concerning the Re- union of our Souls with our Bodies at the end of the World?

A44092	Who is there that can say, It is good for us to be here?
A44092	Who were they that taught this Opinion?
A44092	Who will say unto him, What dost thou?
A44092	Why are you so hard of believe?
A44092	Why grounded( perhaps you may ask) on the ancient Revelations of the Antediluvian Patriarchs?
A44092	Why not?
A44092	Will neither of these Reasons satisfie the Etherealist?
