III. FOR the third point, Who are they that must be Judged?
Answ. All the rational creatures in this lower world. And it seems, Angels also, either all or some: But because their case is more darkly made known to us, and less concerns us, we will pass it by. Every man that hath been made or born on earth (except Christ, who is God and man, and is the Judge) must be judged. If any foolish Infidel shall say, Where shall so great a number stand? I answer him; that he knoweth not the things invisible: either the nature of spirits, and spiritual bodies: nor what place containeth them, or how; but easily he may know, that he that gave them all a Being, can sustain them all, and have room for them ⟨p. 23⟩all, and can at once disclose the thoughts of all, as I said before.
