{"id":"49.1","chapter":49,"number":1,"text":"The Bodies of Men after Death, return to Dust, and see Corruption; but their Souls, or Spirits, which neither die nor sleep, having an Immortal Subsistence, immediately return to God who gave them; the Souls of the Righteous being then made perfect in Holiness, are received into Paradise, where they are with Christ, and behold the Face of God in Light and Glory, waiting for the full Redemption of their Bodies; and the Souls of the Wicked are cast into Hell, where they remain in Torment and utter Darkness, reserved to the Judgment of the great Day. And besides these two places, for Souls separated from their Bodies, the holy Scripture mentions none. And at the last Day, such of the Saints as shall be found alive, shall not sleep, but be Changed; and all the Dead shall be raised up with the self-same Bodies, and none other, although with different Qualities, which shall be united to their Souls for ever and ever: but the Bodies of the unjust, shall by the Power of Christ, as a severe and just Judge, be raised to Dishonour; and the Bodies of the Just and Righteous, by his Spirit, as he is Head of the Catholick Church, unto Honour, and be made conformable with his Glorious Body, and shall enjoy everlasting Life, in singing perpetual Praises, and Hallelujahs to God, for ever and ever. Amen.","segments":[{"text":"The Bodies of Men after Death, return to Dust,","proofs":["Genesis 3:19","Acts 13:36"],"refs":[{"printed":"Genesis 3:19","osis":["Gen.3.19"]},{"printed":"Acts 13:36","osis":["Acts.13.36"]}],"note":null},{"text":"and see Corruption; but their Souls, or Spirits, which neither die nor sleep, having an Immortal Subsistence, immediately return to God who gave them;","proofs":["Ecclesiastes 12:7","Acts 7:59"],"refs":[{"printed":"Ecclesiastes 12:7","osis":["Eccl.12.7"]},{"printed":"Acts 7:59","osis":["Acts.7.59"]}],"note":null},{"text":"the Souls of the Righteous being then made perfect in Holiness, are received into Paradise, where they are with Christ, and behold the Face of God in Light and Glory, waiting for the full Redemption of their Bodies;","proofs":["Luke 23:43","2 Corinthians 5:1, 6, 8","Philippians 1:23","Hebrews 12:23"],"refs":[{"printed":"Luke 23:43","osis":["Luke.23.43"]},{"printed":"2 Corinthians 5:1, 6, 8","osis":["2Cor.5.1","2Cor.5.6","2Cor.5.8"]},{"printed":"Philippians 1:23","osis":["Phil.1.23"]},{"printed":"Hebrews 12:23","osis":["Heb.12.23"]}],"note":null},{"text":"and the Souls of the Wicked are cast into Hell, where they remain in Torment and utter Darkness, reserved to the Judgment of the great Day.","proofs":["Jude 6","1 Peter 3:19","Luke 16:23–24"],"refs":[{"printed":"Jude 6","osis":["Jude.1.6"]},{"printed":"1 Peter 3:19","osis":["1Pet.3.19"]},{"printed":"Luke 16:23–24","osis":["Luke.16.23-Luke.16.24"]}],"note":null},{"text":"And besides these two places, for Souls separated from their Bodies, the holy Scripture mentions none.
