A. Christ tells us, Matth. 25. 31. That the Son of Man (that is, Christ as Man,) shall come in his Glory, and all the Holy Angels with him, and shall sit on the Throne of his Glory, and before him shall be gathered all Nations, and he shall separate them one from another, as a Shepherd divideth his Sheep from the Goats.] And St. Paul saith, ⟨p. 118⟩2 Thess. 1. 7, 8. The Lord Jesus shall be revealed from Heaven, with his mighty Angels, in flaming Fire, taking Vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ: Who shall be punished with everlasting Destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the Glory of his Power, when he shall come to be glorified in his Saints, and to be admired in all them that believe.
