A38634 An Essay to the explaining of the Revelation wherein amongst other things of great moment, is proved, that by the beast is meant an universal monarch which shall hereafter arise out of the Roman empire : that there shall be a fifth kingdom upon the earth, (namely that of the saints) together with the manner thereof, and that the New Jerusalem is a city properly so called, which God hath reserved in heaven for the saints. 1661 (1661) Wing E3294C; ESTC R36197 107,276 171

whereof_o be_v in_o the_o begin_n of_o that_o verse_n affirm_v but_o that_o john_n will_v have_v they_o to_o persist_v in_o the_o belief_n of_o christ_n it_o be_v also_o say_v in_o the_o 22_o chapter_n of_o this_o prophecy_n verse_n the_o 3._o that_o the_o throne_n of_o god_n shall_v be_v in_o the_o new_a jerusalem_n when_o nevertheless_o the_o ministry_n of_o christ_n in_o the_o heavenly_a tabernacle_n which_o i_o have_v before_o prove_v to_o be_v the_o same_o with_o the_o new_a jerusalem_n as_o he_o sit_v at_o the_o right_a hand_n of_o the_o throne_n of_o god_n do_v undeniable_o show_v that_o the_o throne_n of_o god_n be_v already_o in_o that_o city_n and_o consequent_o that_o the_o aforesaid_a passage_n do_v only_o imply_v the_o continuance_n of_o it_o there_o thus_o have_v i_o assert_v the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o first_o resurrection_n and_o show_v that_o the_o saint_n who_o be_v raise_v from_o the_o dead_a after_o the_o bind_n of_o satan_n do_v reign_n with_o christ_n in_o heaven_n a_o thousand_o year_n from_o whence_o it_o do_v necessary_o follow_v that_o they_o have_v knowledge_n of_o all_o the_o thing_n in_o the_o world_n as_o christ_n have_v otherwise_o how_o can_v they_o be_v partaker_n with_o he_o in_o order_v and_o dispose_v they_o but_o as_o they_o be_v king_n so_o also_o priest_n of_o god_n and_o christ_n and_o according_o do_v serve_v they_o both_o in_o heaven_n what_o by_o give_v honour_n and_o glory_n to_o they_o what_o by_o intercede_v with_o they_o for_o the_o saint_n who_o be_v in_o the_o mean_a time_n reign_v on_o the_o earth_n for_o so_o the_o pattern_n of_o christ_n the_o high_a priest_n who_o do_v himself_o appear_v before_o the_o face_n of_o god_n and_o make_v intercession_n for_o the_o saint_n seem_v to_o require_v nor_o need_v we_o to_o fear_v least_o the_o papist_n shall_v take_v any_o advantage_n from_o this_o doctrine_n to_o palliate_v their_o superstitious_a conceit_n about_o the_o saint_n for_o i_o do_v not_o suppose_v that_o the_o saint_n who_o be_v dead_a and_o as_o isaiah_n testify_v be_v ignorant_a of_o we_o chap._n 63.16_o and_o as_o solomon_n eccles_n 9.5_o 6._o aver_v know_v not_o

such_o saint_n as_o be_v raise_v from_o the_o dead_a and_o translate_v into_o heaven_n become_v there_o not_o only_a king_n but_o also_o priest_n of_o god_n and_o christ_n no_o marvel_n therefore_o if_o these_o person_n who_o thus_o rise_v a_o thousand_o year_n before_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o dead_a be_v here_o pronounce_v both_o holy_a and_o happy_a holy_a for_o that_o without_o holiness_n it_o will_v have_v be_v impossible_a for_o they_o to_o have_v see_v god_n much_o less_o to_o appear_v before_o his_o face_n for_o other_o and_o happy_a because_o all_o of_o they_o be_v endue_v with_o
