Christ's certain and sudden appearance to judgment

1 Awake sinners, awake! Christ will appear to judgment. Christ will appear, whom you have read of, and heard of, and have had frequent proffers of, but could never be prevailed to accept of; Christ will appear in his glory, in whom you could see no beauty, or desirableness; Christ will appear as a Judge, whom you might have had for your Saviour. Sinners, the Judge of the whole world will appear, and can you sleep under the guilt of sin? He will be a most glorious, powerful, wise, holy, righteous, strict, furious, inexorable Judge, as hath been shown from p. 65. to p. 73. and yet are you secure and fearless? you have heard God's terrible voice in the City, and that hath not awakened you; and will not Christ's appearance to Judgment awaken you neither? You have been asleep under the sound of temporal judgments, and can you sleep under the thoughts of the last judgment, when the punishment, which shall then be inflicted, will be eternal?

2. Awake, sinners awake! Christ will certainly appear to Judgment; if there were only a peradventure of Christs coming to Judgment, methinks it should awaken the guilty, but when there is a certainty of it, how should it awaken you? as certainly as God is true, as certainly as the Scriptures are his Word, as certainly as you are creatures, and sinners; so certainly will the Lord Jesus Christ appear to judge the ungodly World for sin, at the last day.
