IV. For what causes that generall iudgement was appointed.
And wee beleeue, that for two causes prin∣cipally, this iudgement was appointed, wher∣in Christ shall sitt as iudge in the sight of all men: the first is, that such thinges as are nowe hidden vnto men, aswel innocencie, faith, and the good consciences of the godlie, as the hy∣pocrisie, and vile deeds of the wicked, may be openly knowne to all the world: and thereby be manifestly seene how iust the iudgements of God were euer from the first to the last. Whereuppon also the Apostle called that day the day of declaration. The other cause,
is that the reward which was promised aswell to the good for their good workes, as to the bad for their euill deedes should be fully paied and re∣stored: as the Apostle saieth,
wee must all appeare before the iudgement seat of Christ, that euerie man may receiue the things vvhich are done in his bodie according to that he hath done, whether it be good or euill: whereupon also the same Apostle calleth it the day of the iust iudgement.
