An epistolary discourse, proving, from the Scriptures and the first fathers, that the soul is a principle naturally mortal: but immortalized actually: by the Pleasure of God to Punishment; or, to Reward by its Union with the Divine Baptismal Spirit. Wherein is Proved, That None have the Power of Giving this Divine Immortalizing Spirit, since the Apostles, but only Bishops. With an Hypothesis concerning Sacerdotal Absolution. The second edition, with large additions, and corrected from great erratas by the author's own hand. By Henry Dodwell, A. M.
