Also they teach that at the Consummation of the World Christ will appear

for judgment and will raise up all the dead; He will give to the godly

and elect eternal life and everlasting joys, but ungodly men and the

devils He will condemn to be tormented without end.

They condemn the Anabaptists, who think that there will be an end to the

punishments of condemned men and devils.

They condemn also others who are now spreading certain Jewish opinions,

that before the resurrection of the dead the godly shall take possession

of the kingdom of the world, the ungodly being everywhere suppressed.
