Christ's certain and sudden appearance to judgment. By Thomas Vincent, sometime Minister of Maudlins…

5. Awake sinners, Awake! when Christ doth appear, you shall be Judged by him: Then the Books will be opened, where all your actions are recorded; then your […] (now it may be forgotten and slighted) will be called to remembrance, and your secret sins, which now you are […] shamed of will then be manifest before the whole World your old sins will be reviewed; your old uncleanness, your old drunkenness, your old unrighteousness; and you will be made to hear of all your sins, past and gone many years before, in such a manner, as shall make your •ares to tingle, your hearts to quake, and tremble; and when Gods justice shall arraign you, and the Devil accuse you, and your conscience shall hear witness against you, and the Lord Jesus Christ shall pronounce the Sentence upon you, Depart from me ye cursed into everlasting Fire, prepared for the Devil and his Angels▪ and the Saints it may be accompany him with a loud shout, Even so Amen, or say with one voice, Go ye cursed into everlasting Fire, and so pass from you into Heaven, and leave the Devil and his Angels to drag you unto torments, and when you see there is no remedy, no reversing of your condemnation, and the Devils seize upon you, and tear you, and hale you away. O how terrible will this Judgment be unto you? O how will the terrors of the All-mighty flow in upon you? how will your consciences gnaw, and sting, and torment you? how will your spirits fa•l and s•nk within you, and hearts melt ⟨p. 188⟩like drops of water? How will you weep, and wail, and gnash your teeth? and cry out in the fearfulness and horror of your spirits, Woe, woe, woe be unto us that ever we were born! Woe, woe, woe be unto us that ever we have sinned!
