Christ's certain and sudden appearance to judgment

2. The bodies of the wicked shall be punished, they have been sharers in sin, and they must share in torment; they must lie in the Lake of fire and brimstone, Rev. 21. 8. the torment of the bodies of the wicked will be dreadful; besides the impression which the anguish of soul will make upon them, they will have their own proper torment, through the sense of the fire which will be kindled about them, and burn more horribly than London's fire did, when it had got into the heart of the City; their torment will be greater than if scalding ⟨p. 136⟩lead were poured into their bowels; than if they were torn in pieces with wild horses; than if their breasts were ripped up, and their heart were plucked out with burning pincers; it will be worse than if they were cast into a caldron of boiling pitch or lead; or put into Phalaris Bull, or Nebuchadnezzars fiery Furnace: the torture of the damned's bodies will be far beyond the sharpest pain now incident to humane nature by racking diseases, or have been inflicted upon any of the children of men by the most cruel tyrant; for the bodies of the wicked when raised again, will be strengthened unto a greater capacity for punishment, when they will be made incorruptible and immortal, and punishment will be the end of their resurrection; but more of this punishment under the properties.
