Now, whether there shall be one time, or a second time, or a third time,

from this time of death to the time appointed for the resurrection?

which are appointed unto man.

But whether it be at his resurrection or after, I do not say;

but this much I say,

that there is a space between death and the resurrection of the body,

and a state of the soul in happiness or in misery

until the time which is appointed of God

that the dead shall come forth, and be reunited, both soul and body,

and be brought to stand before God,

and be judged according to their works.

But behold, it was appointed unto man to die —

therefore, as they were cut off from the tree of life

they should be cut off from the face of the earth —

and man became lost forever,

yea, they became fallen man.
