Christ's certain and sudden appearance to judgment

Rejoice then believers, rejoice! it grieveth you when you look within you, and perceive so much remaining defilement; when you feel such strong opposition of the flesh against the spirit, and you find your selves sometimes foiled thereby, your weaknesses and infirmities trouble you; but rejoice believers, because in Heaven you will be perfectly freed from sin, you will never be foiled nor defiled with it any more, but you will be made perfectly holy, and perfectly happy.

Rejoice then believers, rejoice! it grieveth you when you look within you, and perceive so much remaining defilement; when you feel such strong opposition of the flesh against the spirit, and you finde your selves sometimes foiled thereby, your weaknesses and infirmities trouble you; but rejoyce believers, because in Heaven you will be perfectly freed from sin, you will never be foiled nor defiled with it any more, but you will be made perfectly holy, and perfectly happy.

3. Think what habitations ye shall have; you shall have Mansions in the Fathers house, Joh. 14. ⟨p. 276⟩2. A building of God, a house not made with hands, eternal in the Heavens, 2 Cor. 5. 1. your persons will be glorious, and your habitations will be glorious.

Rejoice then believers, rejoice! what though some of you live in poor and mean cottages; then you shall live in the glorious? Palace of the King of Kings; what though your houses have been burned with fire, and some of you have not where to lay your head, and none of you have a certain dwelling place which you can secure to your selves? yet rejoice because there are Mansions provided for you, out of which it will be impossible for you to be burned or turned out for ever. The City which is above hath foundations which cannot be over turned, and the building of God which is not made with hands, cannot be destroyed by hands, neither is exposed to flames of fire, which may demolish the fairest City in the world.
