Christ's certain and sudden appearance to judgment

1. That he will glorify his infinite wisdom in the punishment of the damned, which will contrive such tortures for them, that if all the men in the world should join their wits together, and take to their help all the Devils in hell, they could not invent the like; dreadful ingredients will his wisdom find out to put into the cup, which he will put into the hand of the wicked to drink.

1. That he will glorifie his infinite wisdom in the punishment of the damned, which will contrive such tortures for them, that if all the men in the world should joyn their wits together, and take to their help all the Devils in hell, they could not invent the like; dreadful ingredients will his wisdom finde out to put into the cup, which he will put into the hand of the wicked to drink.

2. That he will glorify his infinite power, he will make bare his arm, and smite with an infinite ⟨p. 134⟩force; the blow of a child will take little impression, but if a Goliath smite with a Goliath's sword, he will smite to the ground; the weightier the hand, the heavier the stroke; there is more difference between the power of God and the strongest creatures, than between the strongest creature and the weakest child; It would be dreadful to be delivered up to the power of some strong fierce and cruel creatures: what will it be to be delivered up to the power of the omnipotent and most furious God. God will glorify the power of his anger in the destruction of the wicked, Rom. 9. 31. What, if God willing to show his wrath, and to make his power known, &c. God will show what his power can do in the punishing of the wicked; his last work of power in punishing, will be as glorious as his first work of power in creating; and he will glorify the power of his anger in hell, as he will glorify his goodness and love in heaven; in heaven he will open the treasures of his love, and in hell he will open the treasures of his wrath. God will inflict the punishment.
