A52084 Two sorts of latter days, proved from Scripture. First, the latter days of perilous times, the which are to be ended before the great and glorious latter days have their beginning. Proved when the elder people or nation is to serve the younger. And by that servitude made blessed. The old and new testament made to agree. And truth vindicated against all heresies. By M. Marsin Marsin, M. 1699 (1699) Wing M813E; ESTC R223742 30,711 48

food by Hunting so this World Hunts and Labours for their food But Jacob was a smooth Man representing the Time or World to come in which time there will be Smoothness and calmness with all serenity and Provision in abundance without Hunting for Concerning the Servitude BUt as for the Servitude the Lord had determined for the Elder World before the Children had done good or evil In that Servitude they will be more Blessed than ever they would have been without it For God promised Abraham that in him all the Families of the Earth should be Blessed Gen. 12.3 Gen. 18.18 Gen. 22.17 18. Gen. 26.4 Which is by Christ and partly made good at Christ's first coming by the publication of the Gospel by which many of the Nations embraced the Faith by laying hold of the common Salvation wich is therein tendred Jude 2. For Christ tasted Death for every Man Heb. 2.9 Heb. 5.9 John 3.16 1 John 2.2 In which common Salvation I neither mean the elect remnant that was chosen from among Israel unto whom Christ promised to be with to the end of the World Nor the People that God at the first visiting the Gentiles did take out from among them for his Name Acts 15.14 The which People then received the Holy Ghost to be in them that they might be a light to the World And that the World through them might believe or know that God had sent Christ John 17.23 That thereby the Nations might take hold of the offered Mercy which accordingly they did Colos 1.6 and so became the Seed of Abraham And whilst they walkt in the stops of the Faith of Abraham Rom. 4.12 They were heirs to Israels promises and that by Christ who was of the Lyon of the Tribe of Judah And set forth as a propitiation through Faith in his Blood for the remission of Sins that are past Rom. 3.25 to all them that then believed according to the tender of his Grace Therefore they then concluded upon the publication of the Gospel or of a Sinners resigning himself to Christ to serve him that a Man was justified by Faith without the deeds of the Law Chap. 3.26 27 28. But in the Faith that they were to believe were included the deeds of the Law For it is required they should walk according to it for they are to be Judged by it Rom. 2.13 For the Lord will render to every Man according to his deeds when Judged Chap. 2.5 6 7 8 9. And Christ is become the Author of eternal Salvation to all them that obey him Heb 5.9 And walk before God with a perfect Heart as Abraham did Gen. 26.5 Gen. 17.1 And like him expect the promised Reward in the way of their obedience And whilst the Gentiles that had embrac'd the Faith walk'd in his steps they were Heirs to the promises and it is such will be partakers of the Glory promised in time to come The which time will be the time of Christ's Kingdom And then all the Families of the Earth will be Blessed in Abraham and his Seed For after the Lord has avenged himself of his Enemies which Enemies are those who regard not the Counsel of the Lord and will have none of his Reproof against these he will spend his Arrows And then God calls to the Nations to rejoyce with his People Deut. 32.42 43. For then all the Nations that are given to be Israel's Servants will have cause to rejoice in that they will then be made blessed thereby when all those of Mount-Seir and Idumea who through unbelief of the Promise made to Israel boast themselves and deny the Time or World to come in which the Lord will make his Promises good And through Covetousness of this present evil world they like Esau sell their Birth-right for this world's Morsel And it is these Edomites shall be made desolate when the whole Earth rejoyceth Ezek. 35.12 13 14 15. Now Esau was but termed Edom upon the desiring the Pottage for which Pottage be sold his Birth-right Gen. 25.31 32 33. As not believing the Promises which God made to Abraham as relating to this time nor that which is to come unto which the promised Blessedness belongs For if he had believed the Promises he would not have said If I dye for Hunger what profit shall this Birth-right do me And it was through Unbelief of a future slate made him unwilling to encounter with Difficulties and therefore sold his Birth-right to which the Blessing was annext For which afterward when he would have inherited the Blessing he was rejected Heb. 12.17 And had not Jacob known the advantage that was to be had by the Birth-right he would not have desired it from him For had not the Blessing gone with the Birth-right Jacob had been in a far better condition without it for then he had purchased the Servitude with the Birth-right But Isaac Rebecca and Jacob well knew that it was the Elder People Nation or World that was to serve the Younger And as Esau through unbelief disinherited himself so the Seed of Jacob by their disobedience and unbelief have in this time disinherited themselves Yet in the time to come the Seed of Jacob will have the promised Blessing with whom the true Believer will come in Heir with And in this time the Covenant which God made with the Seed of Jacob was such that others might take hold of it Strangers as well as Israel Deut. 29.14 15. So that the natural seed of Esau were not excluded from it as many as would come in according to the condition of the Covenant might be Heirs with Israel in time to come And Esau's Seed knowing the Covenant of the Lord and they not joining with Israel in the true Worship they were more inexcusable than the rest of the Nations For the true God was the God of their Fathers But in the time to come the unborn Posterity of Esau then cannot come in Heirs with Israel Neither any of this World can partake of Israel's Promises in time to come but those that come in Heirs with Israel in this time Jacob's Blessing THe Blessing wherewith Isaac blessed Jacob as relating to him and his Seed the which had not only Reference to this Time or World but much more to that which is to come For unto him he pronounced the Words of God to Abraham Gen. 12.3 I will bless them that bless thee and curse him that curseth thee For in the Blessing Isaac said to Jacob Gen. 28.29 God give thee of the Dew of Heaven and the Fatness of the Earth and plenty of Corn and Wine Let People serve thee and Nations bow down to thee be Lord over thy Brethren and let thy Mother's Sons bow down to thee cursed be every one that curseth thee and blessed be he that blesseth thee This Blessing as I said before must needs have its chief reference to the Generations of Israel's Children in time to come Psal 102.18 19. Psal 22.30 31. Psal 24.6 Deut.
