I am just about finished with a project of going through many of the major reformed confessions and catechism statements that correlate to the confessions and came across this statement in the Belgic Confession Article 37 concerning The Last Judgment:
Then the books (that is, the consciences) will be opened,
and the dead will be judged
according to the things they did in the world,
whether good or evil.

I have never heard of the books being interpreted as "consciences" before. Is that a fairly standard interpretation or is it unique to the Belgic Confession?
