transmigration of Babilon to the comming of Christ in the fl●sh the sixth from the comming of Christe in the flesh to his comming againe to iudgement So that according to his prophecie wee liue in the last age which last age ● called of Iohn hora extrema or hora nouissima the laste hour● but how lōg this last houre doth last he that is α and ω the first the last the euerlasting God alone doth know The Hebrewes they boast of the prophecie of Eliah a great man in those da●e● hee prophecied that the worlde should last 6000 year●s 2000 before the law 2000 vnder the law and 2000 from Christ to Christe If this his prophecie holdes true the world cannot last 400 yeares for since Christe his comming in the flesh it was 1606. at Christes tide last hast according to the computation of the Church from time to time But leauing men and comming to the Scripturs which cannot erre for Humanū est errare Man may yea and doth many times erre Sainte Paule saith to the Corinthians Wee are they vpon whome the ends of the world are come If therefore the ends of the worlde were come vpon thē that liued aboue 1560. yeares ago then surely doomes day cānot now possibly be far off Iames likewise saith Behold the Iudge standeth before the doore Iohn Baptist preached repentance to the Iewes saying repent for the kingdome of heauen is at hand So that by these places of Scripture it is euident that the generall day of Iudgement is at hand as also by the signes tokens which should goe before this day immediatly of which many yea almost all are already fulfilled Moreouer we must deare brethren know that there is a twofolde iudgement the one called a particuler iudgment the other called a generall iudgment 1 The particular iudgemente is exercised and executed vpon euery man immediatly after death which is segregatio anima a corpore a separation of the soule from the bodie Of this particuler iudgemente wee may reade in the Epistle to the Hebrewes It is appointed vnto men that they shall once die and after that commeth iudgemente And though the generall Iudgement commeth not these 4000. years yet particular iudgment cōmeth at the day of our death look as we at the day of our death shal be found so shall we bee iudged and as we then shal be iudged so shall wee bee iudged at the general iudgement 2 The generall iudgement● of which this Scripture speaketh is exercised and executed vpon all men together by Christe who shall by his power raise all those vp againe that haue beene dead from the beginning of the world to that time and they shall bee presented all together being againe vnited to theire soules before Christes tribunall seate who shall come downe in a cloude from heauen in greate maiesty and glory with thousands of blessed Angels attending vpon him and hee shall giue sentence vpon all in generall the wicked shall be cast into euerlasting fire the godly he shall carry vp with him into caelum Empiraeum the third and highest heauen where he nowe in bodie reigneth remaineth there to reape ioyes vnspeakable for euermore But some man may obiecte and say why I pray you shall there bee a generall iudgement when as all are iudged in the particuler iudgement what shall thee be two iudgements executed There shal notwithstanding the particul●r be a generall iudgemente and that for three causes 1 Because in the particuler iudgemēt the faule of man is iudged onely but then both soule bodie shall be iudged 2 In the particuler iudgemēt the soule onely is either rewarded or punished but then both soule bodie either shal be rewarded with ioyes or punished with torments 3 There shall be a generall iudgmēt to declare to all the worlde assembled then together the iuste iudgemente of god that he hath iustly saued the godly iu●ly condēned the wicked yea the uery wicked themselues shal confes no lesse By reason of this generall iudgement some light braine hereticks their bee the say that ther is no particular iudgmēt at al that the soul immediatl● after death is not iudged for wheras it is said hodie mecūeris in paradiso to day shalte thou be with me in paradise the speech of our sauiour to the theef they take that word hodie id est to day for 1000 years bring for proofe hereof that place of the Psalmist A thousand yeeres in thy sighte are as yesterday But to answere them this place of Scripture is not so to bee vnderstood as that a thousand yeares shoulde bee taken for a day or a day for a thousand yeares for hee saith not a thousand yeares are a daye but a thousand yeares in the sighte of God that is in respecte of the eternity and euerlastingnesse of god are as a day It is therefore spoken on this manner to expresse the eternitie of God as if hee should say a thousand yeares with man in respect of the eternity of God are but as a daye for as many as are haue beene and euer shall bee the daies of man so many thousand yea so many thousand thousands yeeres is the eternity of God he is-and-the first and the last before all beginnings and shall neuer haue ending Againe they alledge that place of Genesis In that day that thou eatest therof namely of the forbidden fruite thou shalt die the death Now saith the heretique that day they died not but liued many hundred yeers after therfore by a day is vnderstood many hundred yeers But I answer that that day wherin Adam did eat of the forbidden fruit euen that day did hee dye that is that day by sinne hee was separated from God then the which separation no death is greater for Vt vita corporis est anima ita vita animae est deus tolle animā perit corpus tolle deū moritur animae id est As the soule is the life of the body so God is the life of the soule take away the soule the body dieth take away God the soule is dead So that Adam that day died in soule being separated from the Lord yea that day Adam was made subiect to death in this life and in the life to come that day he had the beginnings of death seasing vppon him for hee was presently cast out of Paradise into the ragged world he was cursed and all his posterity yea hee should haue gone to hell had not the second Adam broken the head of the subtile serpent that inticed him to sin Yea the thiefe vpon the crosse had Paradise that day in soule in which he suffered in body although he had it not in so full measure as hee shall at the generall day when his soule shall take vnto it the body againe hodie to daie thy soule with my soule shall be in Paradise that is in
