[De articulis fidei]

to put on this immortality. The fourth is the error of Eutyches, Patriarch of Constantinople, who posited that our bodies are similar to air or wind, as Gregory narrates in the fourteenth book of the Moralia original: "Moralia in Job". Against this is that the Lord, after His resurrection, offered His own body to be touched by the disciples, saying at the end of Luke, "Touch and see." Since the Apostle says in Philippians 3, "Who will reform our body of lowliness, configured to the body of His glory." The fifth is the error of those saying that human bodies in the resurrection will be turned into spirit. Against whom it is said at the end of Luke, "A spirit does not have flesh and bones, as you see Me to have." The sixth is the error of Cerinthus, who fabulates that after the resurrection, there will be a thousand years in an earthly kingdom of Christ, in which carnal men will have the pleasure of the belly and lust. Against whom it is said in Matthew 22, "In the resurrection, they shall neither marry nor be given in marriage." Some also said that after the resurrection of the dead, the world will remain in the same state in which it is now. Against whom it is said in Revelation 22, "I saw a new heaven and a new earth." And the Apostle says in Romans 8 that "the creature itself will be liberated from the servitude of corruption into the freedom of the glory of the children of God." And against all these errors, it is said, "the resurrection of the flesh." And in another creed, "I look for the resurrection of the dead."

The sixth article pertains to the final effect of divinity, which is the reward of the good and the punishment of the evil, according to that saying in the Psalm, "You shall render to each one according to his works." And concerning this, there have been many errors. The first of these is of those saying that the soul dies with the body, as the Arab asserts, or even after a short interval, as Zeno said, as is recounted in the book On Ecclesiastical Dogmas.
