judgement_n seat_n whence_o every_o eye_n shall_v see_v he_o shine_v in_o his_o own_o his_o father_n and_o his_o angel_n glory_n who_o in_o a_o bright_a corona_n shall_v sit_v round_o about_o he_o

the_o judgement_n be_v set_v and_o the_o book_n be_v open_v and_o thus_o i_o have_v give_v a_o brief_a account_n from_o scripture_n of_o the_o manner_n and_o circumstance_n of_o his_o come_n from_o whence_o i_o proceed_v to_o the_o iv._o and_o last_o general_n i_o propose_v to_o treat_v of_o viz._n to_o explain_v the_o whole_a process_n of_o this_o judgement_n and_o that_o we_o may_v proceed_v herein_o the_o more_o distinct_o we_o will_v consider_v it_o with_o respect_n to_o those_o twofold_a object_n viz._n the_o righteous_a and_o the_o wicked_a about_o which_o it_o be_v to_o be_v exercise_v for_o it_o be_v plain_a from_o scripture_n that_o they_o be_v not_o to_o be_v judge_v promiscuous_o one_o among_o another_o as_o they_o come_v but_o the_o sheep_n be_v to_o be_v separate_v

left_a in_o which_o separation_n the_o precedency_n will_v be_v give_v to_o the_o sheep_n or_o righteous_a who_o be_v to_o be_v judge_v first_o for_o so_o the_o scripture_n assure_v we_o that_o the_o dead_a in_o christ_n be_v to_o rise_v first_o and_o that_o after_o they_o have_v undergo_v their_o judgement_n they_o be_v immediate_o to_o be_v waste_v up_o into_o the_o air_n there_o to_o meet_v the_o lord_n and_o to_o sit_v as_o assessor_n with_o he_o in_o that_o judgement_n which_o he_o shall_v afterward_o pass_v upon_o the_o wicked_a vid._n 1_o thes._n 4.15_o 16_o 17._o compare_v with_o 1_o cor._n 6.2_o in_o explain_v therefore_o the_o process_n of_o this_o judgement_n we_o will_v treat_v of_o it_o in_o the_o same_o order_n wherein_o it_o will_v be_v transact_v begin_v first_o with_o

of_o the_o righteous_a include_v their_o citation_n or_o summons_n which_o as_o be_v observe_v before_o be_v to_o be_v perform_v by_o the_o voice_n or_o trump_n of_o the_o archangel_n i._n e._n by_o a_o audible_a shout_n or_o noise_n make_v by_o the_o prince_n of_o angel_n and_o sound_v throughout_o the_o universe_n like_o the_o mighty_a blast_n of_o a_o trumpet_n for_o as_o it_o be_v ancient_o the_o manner_n of_o nation_n to_o gather_v their_o assembly_n by_o the_o sound_n of_o a_o trumpet_n so_o by_o the_o same_o sound_v the_o scripture_n tell_v we_o god_n will_v assemble_v the_o world_n

well_o understand_v the_o one_o in_o a_o literal_a sense_n as_o the_o other_o it_o be_v no_o more_o improper_a in_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o thing_n for_o god_n to_o proclaim_v by_o such_o a_o sound_a his_o come_n to_o judge_v the_o world_n than_o it_o be_v his_o come_n to_o give_v law_n to_o israel_n but_o then_o together_o with_o this_o mighty_a voice_n or_o trump_n of_o the_o archangel_n

14.15_o and_o that_o by_o these_o ten_o thousand_o he_o mean_v the_o whole_a body_n of_o the_o church_n triumphant_a be_v evident_a by_o that_o passage_n of_o s._n paul_n 1_o thess._n 3.13_o where_o

24.31_o our_o saviour_n tell_v we_o that_o at_o his_o come_n on_o the_o cloud_n of_o heaven_n he_o will_v send_v his_o angel_n with_o a_o great_a sound_n of_o a_o trumpet_n and_o they_o shall_v

the_o ministry_n of_o his_o angel_n chase_v they_o into_o that_o everlasting_a fire_n whereunto_o he_o have_v doom_v and_o devote_v they_o thus_o when_o he_o come_v to_o judge_n the_o world_n all_o
