Placaeus: Adam was neither immortal as the risen will be nor mortal as we are
Josué de la Place (Placaeus) puts it this way in thesis 32 of his Theses on the State of Adam before the Fall: "Adam's immortality was not the kind we shall have after the blessed resurrection, since he was able to sin and so able to die. Nor was his mortality the kind we have now in this state of sin, since he was able to avoid sin and so able to avoid death."
Latin
XX. Hanc rem sic exponit Josue Placeus Thesibus de statu Adami ante lapsum Thesi 32. Non erat, inquit, immortalis Adamus, quomodo nos erimus post beatam resurrectionem: poterat enim, ut peccare, sic mori. Nec erat mortalis, quemadmodum nos mortales sumus in hoc statu peccati: poterat enim, ut non peccare, ita non mori.
