1. The Life of the Body, which is a natural Life, or the Life of Nature: In him we live, move, and have our Being. Neither count I my Life dear to me, so that I might finish my Course with Joy. He giveth to all Life, &c.1 All have this Life; Sinners as well as Saints have a natural Life.
2. There is a Spiritual Life, which is the Life of the Soul, the Life of a Saint, or of the New Creature; this is the Life of Grace. 1I am crucified with Christ. Nevertheless I live, yet not I, but Christ liveth in me; and the Life which I now live in the Flesh, I live by the Faith of the Son of God, &c. The Dead shall hear the Voice of the Son of God; and they that hear, shall live; that is, their 2Souls shall live, or be quickened and raised to a State of spiritual Life.
