Two treatises the first of death, on I Cor. 15:26, the second of judgment…

That is the day that shall rectify all judgements, and cure the errors and contemptuous thoughts of an holy life, which no persuasions now can cure; that is the day that shall set all straight, that now seems crooked; and shall satisfy us to the full, ⟨p. 141⟩that God was just, even when he prospered his enemies, and afflicted the souls that loved him, and walked in their integrity before him. We shall then see that which shall fully satisfy us of the reason and equity of all our sufferings, which here we underwent; we shall marvel no more that God lets us weep, and groan, and pray, and turns away his face, and seems not to regard us. We shall then find that all our groans were heard, and all our tears and prayers did succeed, which we suspected had been lost. We shall then find that a duty performed in sincerity, through all our lives, was never lost; no nor a holy thought; nor a Cup of cold water, that from holy love we gave to a Disciple. We shall then see that our murmurings, and discontents, and jealous unbelieving thoughts of God, which sickness, or poverty, or crosses, did occasion, were all injurious to the Lord, and the fruit of infirmity; and that when we questioned his Love on such accounts, we knew not what we said. We shall then see that Death, and Grave, and Devils were all but matter for the glorifying of Grace, and for the triumph of our Lord and us.
