Chap. 54. Of the state and condition of the Reprobates when they are dead.
The death of the Reprobate, is a separation of the body and the soul: of the body, that for a time it may lie dead in the earth: of the soul, that it may feel the torments of hell, even until the time of the last judgement: at which time the whole man shall be cast into the most terrible and fearful fire of hell. 1. Pet. 3.19. By the which he also went, and preached unto the spirits that are in prison, Luke. 8.2. Peter. 2.4. For if God spared not the Angels that sinned, but cast them down into hell, and delivered them into chains of darkness to be kept unto damnation.
