125 But let us see how it is true that is avouched [in the ninth of Genesis] that the blood is the soul. This the Manichees cannot abide in the old testament, and reprove it as a lie: for they utterly renounce the old books. And that which is written in Genesis, 2Leviticus, and Deuteron. they taunt with these arguments. In the first to the Corinthians the 15. chapter it is said; Flesh and blood shall not inherit the kingdom of God, therefore blood is not the soul: otherwise Paul had excluded souls out of the kingdom of heaven.

But the more throughly to confute their first argument, note, that when Paul in that place speaketh of the resurrection to come, he by flesh and blood meaneth, that the conditions of a mortal body shall be taken away from the saints at the resurrection. Which thing, the words alleged there by him do declare; It is sown in corruption and mortality, but it shall rise again in contrary conditions.
