6. Whom Christ shall judge.
He shall judge all men, both quick and dead, and also the wicked Angels. Now men are called quick or dead, in respect of the state which goeth before this judgement: As, they which shall remain alive until the day of judgement, are called the quick and living: all the rest except these, are called the dead: and these at the day of Judgement shall rise; the other which remain then alive shall be changed. Which change shall be unto them instead of death: and so We shall appear before the judgement seat of Christ. Object. But he that believeth in the Son, 1shall not come into judgement: and so it followeth, that all shall not be judged Ans. He that believeth, shall not come into the judgement of condemnation, but shall come into the judgement of absolution. Wherefore we shall be judged, as the word judgement is more largely taken for both condemnation and absolution. The Devils shall not then be judged, that is, condemned: but they shall be judged in respect of the publishing of the judgment already passed on them, as also in respect of aggravating of the judgement. Object. The Prince of this world (saith Christ) is already judged and condemned: 2Therefore he shall not then be judged. Ans. The Devil is already judged, but that only, 1. By the decree of God. 2. In the word of God. 3. In his own conscience. 4. As touching the beginning of his condemnation: But then he shall be so judged, having ⟨p. 332⟩the sentence proclaimed publicly on him, that he shall not be able to attempt any thing more against God and the Church.
