Immediately after the Tribulation of those days shall the Sun be darkned and the Moon shall not give her light then shall they see the Son of Man comming in the Clouds with Power and great Glory when ye see these things know that it is near even at the door As the days of Noah were so shall the comming of the Son of Man be For in the days before the Flood they were Eating and Drinking Marrying and giving in Marriage and they knew not till the Flood came and took them all away so shall the coming of the Son of Man be Watch therefore for ye know not in what hour the Lord cometh therefore be ready for in such an hour as ye know not the Son of Man cometh and blessed is that Servant whom the Lord when he cometh shall find so doing CErtain it is that there shall be a day of Judgement wherein all Mankind shall he judged and the Earth and all therein shall be destroyed by Fire which truth is believed by all but the Sadduces and Atheistical Infidels of whom this age is full who think there is no Resurrection but how few are they that prepare themselves for this great day and make themselves ready to meet the Lord at his coming The Bridegroom is coming and yet most men ●●th the foolish Virgins have not prepared their Lam●s Our Saviour Iesus Christ in the Twenty Fourth of Matthew having at large shewed the signs of his coming to Iudgment and withal given us some fore warnings that thereby h● might be fore-arm'd In the Twenty Fifth Chapter he shews how unprepared many should be against his coming and as a caution to ●s he sets down the event of their unprepar●●●●ss Christ in the foregoing Chapter bids them Watch and Pray but they as you may see in the Fifth Verse all slumbered and slept And at Midnight was a great cry made when they were all asleep then came the Bridegroom suddenly as a Thief in the night and when they ●●ould have been ready to have received him they were to seek for Oyl And so not being ready the door was shut against them and though they cryed Lord Lord open unto us yet the Lord said unto them I know you not Vers 17. Watch therefore for you know neither the day nor hour wherein the Son of Man cometh A●d now behold the Day draweth nigh the Iudge standeth at the Door James 5. 9. He i● at hand Let us not therefore put far away from us the Day of the Lord. For yet a little while and he that shall come will come and will notarry Let us be prepared and in a readli●●●s let me be taken unawares as the Foolish Virgins were and so be shut out of Heaven for ever God hath appointed a day in which he will Iudge the World and how soon this Day may be we know not perhaps sooner than we are aware of it may be if not this Year yet the next Although we know not certainly the time when the great day will be ytt we may see it cannot be far off if we look but into the Scriptures of the Old and New Testament S. Paul saith We are they upon whom the ends of the World are come If therefore the ends of the World were come upon those who lived 1600 years ago then certainly the Day of Iudgment cannot be far off Zeph. 1. 14. The great Day of the Lord is near it hasteth greatly And Mat. 3. 2. John the Baptist Preached Repent for the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand St. Agustin saith the World shall last six Ages The first from Adam to Noah the second from Noah to Abraham the third from Abraham to David the fourth from David to the Transmigration to Babylon the fifth from thence untel the coming of Christ in the Flesh and the sixth from Christ coming in the Flesh until the coming of Iudgment so that now we live in the last Age.

his coming to Iudgement such and such things should come to pass and we having these things come to pass therefore let us be ready In Matth. 2●●●… the Disciples asked Christ What shall be the signs of his coming and of the end of the world And Christ answered them saying Take heed let no man deceive you for many shall come in my name saying I am a Christ and shall deceive many ver 5. and 24. There shall arise false Christs and false Prophets and shall shew great signs and wonders And hath not this been fulfilled in our Days I trouble to think how impiously blasphemously and cursedly many wretched Creatures have abused the Lord Iesus Christ some affirming themselves to be the Virgin Mary others the Lord Iesus Christ himself O● what a sad account will these men give wh●● they shall appear before the great Tribunal o● the Lord Another sign of the day of Iudgement being hand is expressed Ver. 6 7.
