The Christian faith doubteth verily nothing at all, to confess of our saviour, that also after the resurrection, though now in the spiritual flesh, yet also in his true flesh, ⟨p. 155⟩he did eat and drink with his disciples. Hereof are they called also spiritual-bodies: not that they therefore cease to be bodies, but that through the spirit, which giveth life, they shall be preserved and remain.
The Christian faithe doubteth verely nothing at all, to confesse of our sauioure, that also after the resurrection, though novve in the spiritual fleshe, yet also in his true flesh, ⟨p. 155⟩he did eate and drinke vvith his disciples. Hereof are they called also spiritual-bodies: not that they therefore cease to be bodies, but that thorovve the spirite, vvhich geueth life, they shalbe preserued and remaine.
For like as these our bodies, which have a living soul,1 and yet be not named a spirit that giveth life, but natural or soulishe bodies, and therefore are not souls but bodies: so shall the glorified bodies be called spiritual.
