God. It is manifest that this honour belongs to Christ, ⟨p. 100⟩therefore Christ is God. bGod hath appointed a day, wherein he vvil judge the world in righteousness, by that man whom he hath ordained. cHe hath given him authority to execute judgment, because he is the Son of man. To this consents that article of our faith in the Creed; that he who suffered under Pilate, shall come to judge quick and dead. But it is objected, that to judge is the action of the whole Trinity: true, it is common to all, but the execution of it pertains to one. God judgeth, but by the Son: so distinctly. Rom. 2. 16. God shall judge the secrets of all harts by Jesus Christ: God by Christ.
