226. This continuance of life is what is meant by the resurrection. The reason why men believe that they are not to rise again before the Last Judgment, when also the whole visible world shall perish, is, that they did not understand the Word; and that sensual men place life in the body, believing that unless this should receive life again, it would be all over with a man.
