And although it be unknown unto us, 1when the end of this world shall be, and that it may not be known: yet we believe, that doubtless it shall be: and that then shall be changed not only the earth, but also the heavens: and that there shall be a new heaven & a new earth: and that all the dead yea the wicked, shall rise again, Christ calling them to the general judgement, by the voice and trump of an Archangel: to the assurance of which things it appertaineth, that the Lord, when he foretold of the desolation of Jerusalem, did forthwith apply his speech to these matters: namely that we seeing what happened to Jerusalem, might by those things, believe also that the same should certainly come to pass, which he then also spake concerning the end of the world.
