THESIS LXXX.
TO conclude: It is most clear in the Scripture, and beyond all dispute, that our Actual, most proper, complete Justification, at the great Judgement, will be according to our Works, and to what we have done in flesh, whether Good or Evil: which can be no otherwise then as it was the Condition of that Justification. And so Christ, at that great Assize, will not give his bare Will of Purpose, as the Reason of his proceedings: but as he governed by a Law; so he will judg by a Law: and will then give the Reason of his Public Sentence from mens keeping or breaking the Conditions of his Covenant; that so the mouths of all may be stopped, and the equity of his Judgment may be manifest to all; and that he may there show forth his hatred to the sins, and not only to the persons of the Condemned; and his Love to the Obedience and not only to the persons of the Justified.
