§. 4. That the Soules of the Godlie, af∣ter Death, goe immediatelie to Glorie, and to no mid place of torment.
ISai. 57.1. The Righteous is ta∣ken away from the evill to come: hee shall enter into peace.
Note then, That there is no middle estate, nor place spoken of, but that im∣mediatelie is subjoyned vnto the righ∣teous man's departure out of this life, his present entrie in-to peace; and there∣fore in-to no torment.
Luke 16.25. And Abraham sayde to him, Sonne, remember that thou didst receiue good things in thy lyfe-tyme, and Lazarus lyke-wyse evill; but now hee is comforted, and thou art tormented.
Remarke therefore, That wee haue on∣lie two places mentionate in Scripture, whither soules goe immediatelie after death, to wit, a place of Comfort, which is Heaven, to the godlie; and a place of Torment, which is Hell, to the Wicked.
