ℹ️ This corpus has no verse-level morphological tagging. Lemmas come mainly from word-level tagging of other books in the same language (not from this verse), falling back to dictionary form-matching for the rest. Rare homographs can still be misread; verify against the original and a specialist lexicon where precision matters.

Not in saying, but in being, ought the better man to be shown to love. But so far are they from being able to raise the dead — as the Lord raised them, and the apostles did through prayer, and as has often happened in the brotherhood out of necessity, when the whole local church has made petition with much fasting and supplication, so that the spirit of the deceased returned and the man was granted back to the prayers of the saints.
But if they should say that even the Lord did such things only in appearance (as a phantasm), we will, by leading them back to the prophetic writings, demonstrate from these that all things were both foretold concerning him in this way and have surely come to pass, and that he alone is the Son of God. For this reason also, in his name, his true disciples, having received the grace from him, perform works for the benefit of the rest of mankind, each one according as he has received the gift from him. For some drive out demons surely and truly, so that often those very persons who have been cleansed from the wicked spirits both believe and are in the Church. Others have foreknowledge of things to come, and visions, and prophetic utterances. Still others heal the sick by the laying on of hands and restore them to health. Indeed, as we have said, even the dead have been raised and have remained with us for many years. And what more shall I say? It is not possible to tell the number of the gifts which the Church throughout the whole world, having received them from God in the name of Jesus Christ who was crucified under Pontius Pilate, performs every day for the benefit of the nations, neither deceiving anyone nor taking money for it. For as she has freely received from God, so also she freely ministers. But just as each one of us receives his own body, so also he has his own soul. For God is neither poor nor lacking in resources, so as not to bestow on each individual body its own soul, just as also its own distinctive character. And therefore, when the number is complete which he himself has foreordained with himself, all who have been enrolled unto life shall rise again, having their own bodies, and their own souls, and their own spirits, in which they were well-pleasing to God. But those worthy of punishment shall depart into it, they too having their own souls and their own bodies, in which they departed from the grace of God. And both classes shall cease from begetting and being begotten any longer, and from marrying and being given in marriage; so that the appointed measure of the human race foreordained by God, being brought to completion, may preserve the harmony of the Father.
