Of the Souls of Men at Death.

:48p. 15¶16

XVI. WE believe,¹ that at Death the Souls of Believers are made perfect in Holiness, and do immediately pass into Glory; and their Bodies dying in Union with Christ, or dying in the Lord, do rest in their Graves till the Resurrection, when they shall be raised up in Glory. And that their Souls being reunited to their Bodies, they shall be openly acknowledged, and acquitted, and made completely blessed, both in Soul and Body, and shall have the full Enjoyment of God to all Eternity.² And that the Souls of the Wicked at their Death are cast into Hell, or are in Torment: and that their Bodies lie in the Grave under Wrath,³ and shall by virtue of the Power of Christ be raised from the Dead; and their Souls being re-united to their Bodies, shall be judged and condemned, and cast into a Furnace of Fire, or into unspeakable Torment, with the Devil and his Angels, for ever and ever.
