De Praescriptione Hereticorum, c. 40; De Bapt. c. 3; De Corona, c. 15. For reference to both these examples see J. M. Robertson's Pagan Christs, pp. 321, 322.
The comparison between that Eternall life which Adam lost, and our Saviour by his Victory over death hath recovered; holdeth also in this, that as Adam lost Eternall Life by his sin, and yet lived after it for a time; so the faithful Christian hath recovered Eternal Life by Christs passion, though he die a natural death, and remaine dead for a time; namely, till the Resurrection.
