The third great Convincer, is Jesus Christ in person; Of him in the performance of this office, the Apostle speaks clearly (Jude v: 15.) Behold the Lord cometh with ten thousand of his Saints (And what comes he to do?) To execute judgement upon all, and to convince all that are ungodly among them, of all their ungodly deeds which they have ungodly committed, and of all their hard speeches which ungodly sinners have spoken against him. Christ will make the greatest of ungodly ones in that great day to acknowledge, that all their hard speeches which they have spoken against the Saints, or godly men, were spoken against him. When profane men are among their wicked companions, they can jeer at the godly professors of the name of Christ, even while they pretend to honour Christ; But Christ will make them see, that they scorned him, while they scorned the least of those that feared him, and believed on his name, The great day will be a day not only of executing Judgement, but of conviction, every mouth shall be stopped, and all the world of wicked men shall become guilty in their own sight before God. These are the three great Convincers. The holy Spirit of God, the Conscience of every man, and Jesus Christ in the judgement of the great day.
