The Scripture takes notice of the Saints meeting one with another, as distinct from their meeting with the Lord Jesus, Mat. 24.31. The Elect shall be gathered together from the four winds, from one end of the Heavens to another. At what distance soever (imaginable) they were dispersed and scattered, they shall all meet together into one distinct body, or Assembly: And then co-ascend, to meet their Lord. Some of the School-men apply that passage of the Prophet, 1They shall Mount up with wings as Eagles, to this ascension of the Saints after the Resurrection. Whether that be so or no; we may not incongruously suppose, the Elect of God to be gathered together into some one *vast capacious tract or region of ground on the right hand of the Judgment-seat, from thence to take their flight together to meet the Judg in the Air.3
