Two treatises tending to awaken secure sinners viz., 1. The terror of the day…

1. Before each Man's particular Judgment, he sendeth Death to call away his Soul, a surly Serjeant that will have no Nay: How dear soever this World may be to Men, and how loth soever they are to depart, away they must, and come before the Lord that made them; Death will not be bribed. Every Man that was set in the Vineyard in the Morning of their Lives, must be called out at Evening to receive according to what he hath done: then must the naked Soul alone appear before its Judg, and be accountable for all that was done in the Body, and be sent before till the final Judgment ⟨p. 12⟩to remain in Happiness or Misery, till the Body be raised again and joined to it.

In this Appearance of the Soul before God, it. seemeth by Scripture, that there is some Ministry of Angels; for Luke 16. 22. it is said that the Angels carried Lazarus, that is, his Soul, into Abraham's Bosom. What local Motion there is, or Situation of Souls, is no fit Matter for the Enquiry of Mortals; and what it is in this that the Angels will do, we cannot clearly understand as yet; but most certain it is, that as soon as ever the Soul is out of the Body, it comes to its account before the God of Spirits.

2. At the end of the World the Bodies of all Men shall be raised from the Earth, and joined again to their Souls, and the Soul and Body shall be judged to their endless State; and this is the great and general Judgment where all Men shall at once appear. The same Power of God that made Men of nothing, will as easily then new-make them by a Resurrection, by which he will add much more Perfection, even to the Wicked in their Naturals, which will make them capable of the greater Misery; even they shall have immortal and incorruptible Bodies, which may be the Subjects of immortal Woe,
