PROPOSITION 12.

Life As Now Possessed Is Not Eternal or Everlasting, But a Vapor That Soon Passeth Away

Job 14:1, 2 Man that is born of a woman is of few days, and full of trouble. He cometh forth like a flower and is cut down: he fleeth also as a shadow, and continueth not.

Psa. 39:5 Behold thou has made my days as a handbreadth; and mine age is as nothing before thee: verily every man at his best state is altogether vanity.

Psa. 103:15 As for man, his days are as grass; as the flower of the field so he flourisheth.

Psa. 144:4 Man is like to vanity; his days are as a shadow that passeth away.

I Pet. 1:24 For all flesh is as grass, and all the glory of man as the flower Of grass. The grass withereth, and the flower thereof falleth away.

Jas. 4:14 For what is your life? It is even a vapor, that appeareth for a little time and then vanisheth away.
