Note 0 Some probably may object the dead are not sensible of time, 'tis but as a sleep to them; they die and their resurrection to them immediately follows; no distance of time between Death and Judgement the dead, and so Paul 's gain he speaks of 〈 ◊ 〉 might not be till the resurrection? Aasw. Though it be granted death to the body is but as a sleep, yet 'tis not so to the soul. But that this is not the intent or meaning of the Apostle, is plain; which I make out thus: Paul Plainly shews that if he did presently depart or die, it would be gain to him; now if that which you say were true, he would have lost by death, 'tis easie to see how, Suppose he might live twenty or thirty years longer on earth, would not thirty years sweet enjoyment of Jesus Christ be worth nothing? Is not one ▪ day with God, beholding his lovely face, better than a thousand? All know, that if he died presently, he should never the sooner obtain the resurrection, of this body, than if he had lived a hundred years longer; this being well weighed, to die presently would have been his great loss, were not the soul in a present enjoyment of Christ at death. some probably may Object the dead Are not sensible of time, it's but as a sleep to them; they die and their resurrection to them immediately follows; no distance of time between Death and Judgement the dead, and so Paul is gain he speaks of 〈 ◊ 〉 might not be till the resurrection?
