As it is the Salt of all your Comforts; so it is, land shall be your Judg at the great day: Christ is the only Judg then, but this Book of the Scripture, and the Word of God written, is that whereby he will Judg you, and me, and the World; for at the last, and great Day, when men come to be tried for their Eternal Lives, the Books shall be brought out; not one Book, but Books, Revel. 20.12. And I saw the dead, both small and great, stand before God, and the Books were opened, and another Book was opened. It seems then, that three Books shall be opened at the great Day; one Book is the Book of Life; two other there are, the Book of Gods Records; for a Book of Remembrance is written upon all our Actions, Mal. 3. and the Book of the Scripture, or the Word of God; for saith our Saviour, John, 12.48. The Word that I have spoken, the same shall judg him in the last day. Now this Word that Christ hath spoken, is written, and therefore men shall be judged thereby: but if the Scripture, and the Word of God written, be that Book whereby men shall be judged at the last; then surely it is our Duty in special manner to take heed thereunto.
