VI. A dead Man cannot be raised to Life again, without the mighty Power of God: So the Dead in Sin cannot be raised to Life, without the mighty Power of God's Spirit. Christ, who raised dead Lazarus out of the Grave, must quicken such who are dead in Sins and Trespasses. The Ephesians are said to believe according to the Working of God's mighty Power, 1which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the Dead.
VII. A dead Man is loathsome, and fit for nothing but to be put under Ground, or buried out of sight: So the Wicked are loathsome in God's sight, and unless the sooner quickened, they will be good for nothing but to be cast into Hell; some wicked Men are fit to be buried, or thrown into that Grave.

Object. It is by some objected, That there is a wide Difference between Death natural and spiritual: In Death natural, the Soul it self is utterly removed and taken away from the Body, but in Death spiritual it continues: a Man is still, notwithstanding this spiritual Death, endowed with an Understanding, Will, and Affections, by which these Men are enabled to perform their Duties to God.
