hand that our Redéemer is euen readie comming to iudge the earth to kéepe his generall Parlement of reformation to search Ierusalem throughout with candle light to reuenge the bloud of his seruants recompence their enemies as they haue serued them reward thē according to their wickednes He commeth triumphing in maiestie honour accompanied with Angels Arch-angels and all the hostes of heauen he commeth with the voice of a fearefull trumpet at whose terrible sound the very heauens shall m●oue the seas shall roare the cloudes shall rent and the earth shall tremble and quake a consuming fire shall go before him and a mightie tempest shal be stirred vp round about him when great Iericho shal be cast down with the blast of Iosuaes trumpets when none shall scape safe but the house or Rahab the harlot which receiued the messengers that is to say those penitent sinners which obediently receiue the message of the Gospel when all soules shall be ioyned to their bodies and gathered from the foure corners of the world to receiue iust reward celestiall or infernall when euery one shall be called to yéeld account of his talent how he hath imploied his welth wisdom strength or beautie to the benefite and profite of his brethren howe he hath ruled his affections mortified his appetites and behaued himselfe in his calling When his obedient children shall be deuided from the wicked reprobates and go méete their louing redéemer in the cloudes of whom they shall heare that ioyfull sentence pronounced with a chearefull countenance Come ye blessed of my father inherite the kingdome prepared for you from before the foundation of the world was laid when the wicked shal heare that dreadful sentence pronounced of their angry Iudge depart from me ye cursed into euerlasting fire prepared for the diuell and his angels when they shall sée and féele without them the worlde burning with fire within them the worme of conscience euer gnawing aboue them their vnappeasable Iudge condemning them beneath them the horrible confusion of hell torments prepared to deuour them on their right hand their sinnes accusing them on their left hand the cruell enemy readie to execute Gods eternall sentence agaynst them then will they confesse but too late that the Iudgements of God are true say did not wée heare of this then will they cry vnto the Lord but he will not heare them and desire the mountains to fall vpon them but all in vaine they will not doe them so much pleasure fire and brimstone storme and tempest this shall be their portion to drinke there shalbe wéeping wailing and gnashing of téeth whose dolefull lamētable shrikes horrible gréeuous grones déepe hollow sighes terrible lothsome lookes sorrowful mourning complaints sad melancholy thoughts and heauie pensiue conceits no tongue is able to expresse for they goe to frie in perpetuall torments wiithout remission and vtter confusion without redemption The dreadful place appointed for the execution of Gods vengeance hath diuers names in the holy Scriptures most terrible to our senses tending all to expresse vnto vs the grieuousnesse of punishment as horrible darknes vnquenchable fire vnsatiable hunger and the gnawing of a worme to signifie the miserable oppression hurling downe it is called Infernus a dungeon of Gods wrath or bottomlesse pit to signifie the intollerable paine without ceasing or end it is compared to a burning lake the burning whereof is fire and much wood and the vreath of the Lorde as a riuer of fire and brimstone doth kindle it it is also called Gehenna of Ge and hinnum which signifieth a vallie nigh vnto Ierusalem wherein was a Chappell wherein the Idolatrous Iewes did offer and sacrifice their children vnto a brasen Image called Moloch which being made hote inclosed them in the hollownes therof and so slue them and lest their shriking should moone any to pitie them they made an hideous noise with tabrets and drums whereupon the place was called Tophet thus will the Lorde speake to his enemies in his wrath and vexe them in his sore displeasure when his faithfull obedient children shal passe the Emperiall heauens with their louing redéemer to ioye in felicitie for euer with Abraham Isaac and Iacob with all the number of godly Patriarks the goodly fellowship of the Prophets the glorious company of the Apostles the noble armie of Martyrs with Angels Archangels al the ioyfull troups of heauenly powers The ioyes of heauen are pleasant ioyes our eies cannot sée them our eares cannot heare them our hearts cannot conceiue them nor our tongues expresse them as if a man should promise his horses a good banquet they coulde imagine no other but prouender and water to be their best cheare because they know no daintier dishes euen so the natuall man accustomed to the puddle of fleshly pleasure his minde can mount no higher to perceiue discerne or vnderstand the things that be of God so as the ioyfull plaeasures of heauen are hidden frō his senses But séeing the wise men that came so far from the East did ioy so much to sée Christ in the poore manger it must néeds be much more ioyful to sée him in his state of glory Séeing our vile corruptible bodies receiue of his goodnesse so many benefits and pleasures to abreuiate our wearinesse in this wretched vale of miserie where euery of his creatures doe serue vs in their kinde no doubt our heauenly palace where we shall sée him face to face conteineth maruellous great and ioyfull pleasures Séeing wée receiue so many comfortable blessings in the day of sorrow and mourning much greater shall our pleasures be in the ioyfull day of marriage Séeing the prison and painfull pilgrimage contain such things much more shall we finde in our heauenly paradice when we shall depart from paine and miserie to ioy and felicitie whē death sorrow and griefe shall be cleane taken away all teares wiped from our eyes If a séely poore man wandring alone vpon the mountaines out of his way in the midst of a darke tempestuous night voide of companie destitute of money beaten with raine terrified with thunder wearied with trauel striffe with cold famished with hunger and wrapt in all kind of misery should presently vpon a sudden be placed in a goodly rich pallace with cleare light warme fire swéete smels soft beds daintie meats pleasant company and delightfull Musicke to comfort and cheare him who could expresse the sudden ioy of that poore miserable wretch yet is it nothing in comparison of those vnspeakeable ioyes prepared for Gods elect children in his heauēly paradice where is no serpent to tempt vs any more but glory without comparison riches without measure day without night life without death libertie without thraldome solace without cessing and ioy without ending to which kingdome the eternall God the father the sonne and the holy Ghost bring vs. A prayer HElpe Lord for
