2. God burns that trash, law-merits we are to burn.
2. God burnes that trash, law-merits we are to burn.
3. That hay is laid upon a golden foundation, Christ; Law or Gospel-merits are not builded on Christ: the Spirit expones not this text so as Saltmarsh doth.
3. It is Saltmarsh his hap to misexpone all places for the last judgement, and the resurrection of the body. I dare say, the Spirit of truth never minded his passing from one ministration to another, 2 Pet. 3. the burning of the earth, and the works of it, is not mens burning of all their works. For 1. Scoffers mock the last day, and the promise of Christs coming, but not the joyful day of their passing from their scoffing, merits, self-righteousness, to a new ministration of glory. 2. Peter minded a real, not metaphorical destroying of the world in Noah's time, not with figurative, but most real waters, and from that of burning the earth with fire really, not figuratively. 3. The whole frame of the creation here is put out of order, v. 10.11. 4. It is the day that shall come as a Thief in the night; which is the day of judgement, Matth. 24.43, 44. 1 Thess. 5.1.2. 5. It is the day before which God will gather in his own, willing them to be saved. 6. It is called, The day of the Lord, v. 4.9, 10. I should not spend time to refute such new dreams.
