God judges the righteous. Not all that are thought to be righteous, or think themselves to be so, are such; nor is any man naturally righteous, or of himself, nor by virtue of his obedience to the law of works; but such only are righteous who are made so by the obedience of Christ; these God governs and protects, avenges their injuries and defends their persons; some render the words, "God is a righteous Judge" He is so now in the administrations of His government of the universe, and He will be so hereafter in the general judgment of the world; God is angry with the wicked every day; wicked men are daily sinning, and God is always the same in His nature, and has the same aversion to sin continually; and though He is not always making men examples of His wrath, yet His wrath is revealed from heaven against all unrighteousness of men; and there are frequent stances of it; and when He is silent He is still angry, and in His own time will stir up all His wrath, and rebuke in His hot displeasure.
