Chapter 33. Of the Last Judgment — 2

Westminster Confession of Faith

The end of God’s appointing this day is for the manifestation of the glory of His mercy, in the eternal salvation, of the elect; and of His justice, in the damnation of the reprobate, who are wicked and disobedient. For then shall the righteous go into everlasting life, and receive that fulness of joy and refreshing, which shall come from the presence of the Lord: but the wicked, who know not God, and obey not the Gospel of Jesus Christ, shall be cast into eternal torments, and be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of His power.
