Since it is a righteous thing with God to repay affliction to those who afflict you,
      [2.] He will be revealed with his mighty angels (2 Thessalonians 1:7; 2 Thessalonians 1:7), or the angels of his power: these will attend upon him, to grace the solemnity of that great day of his appearance; they will be the ministers of his justice and mercy in that day; they will summon the criminals to his tribunal, and gather in the elect, and be employed in executing his sentence.
