And then Christ shall in a wonderful manner come to judge the world again, then he shall come to be admired indeed; so you have it in 2 Thes. 1.10.1 When he shall come to be glorified in his Saints, and to be admired in all them that believe: Those that do believe in Christ, they see him to be wonderful; now they do admire at him; but when he shall come again in glory at the great day, then he shall appear so wonderful, as they shall all stand admiring, and saying, Well we indeed heard that our blessed Saviour was the wonder of the world, and we saw so much as made us admire at his glory; but we never thought that we had had such a glorious Saviour, as now we see we have; wonderful and glorious is Jesus Christ now, but when he shall come with his thousand thousands of Angels, and when there shall be such a wonderful change in the world, the Elements melt with fervent heat, and the Heavens depart like a scroll, and the Heavens and Earth shaken, and all the Princes and Monarchs in the world, and all the children of men appearing before him: Oh wonderful then shall he be in his attendance, and then in his own person.
