The dispensation of God is either extraordinary or ordinary: according to the ordinary dispensation of God, the full pains of hell are not suffered in this life; but according to the extraordinary dispensation of God, Christ not only could but did suffer the pains of hell in this life. Many Reprobate suffer the pains of hell here in a degree. The Reprobate, as was said before, that shall be found alive, 1 Cor. 15.51. shall pass into the pains of hell without any separation of the soul from the body.
