1208. In the other life people like this claim to be guiltless, because they say they have committed nothing evil that has been found out, but have lived honorably and without blame. These same ones also will take off their clothes and declare themselves guiltless, but this is while they are in their outer condition.* During their life, such people neither fear the Lord nor think about the other life. * I. e., before their inner character has been exposed.
