A39212	The great day at the dore and he cometh with clouds that shall judge the quick and the dead, and reigne on the earth with all his saints, not for a thousand yeares in this corrupt and sinfull world, as some coruptly conceive and teach, nay, but for a thousand and a thousand and ten thousand times ten thousand thousands of yeares, even for ever and ever, eternally in the world to come ... proved clearly by the word of God ...

19 20 21. These though professing the name of the true God and of the Lord Jesus Christ his Word and Sacraments and themselves to be his Church yet being possest with unclean Spirits of Devils should by another more secret way than the Dragon used deceive a great part of the world And having changed times and lawes and power and judgement being given unto them for a time and times and half a time should consume the Saints of the most High kill them behead them for those causes mentioned Rev. 13. 5 6 7. 14. 12 13. 17. 6. 20. 4. where the souls of them they should behead are shewed according to that of the pale Horse on which Death sate and Hell followed Rev. 6. 8. whereupon Iohn seeth also the soules of them that they should kill for the word of God c. vers. 9 10 11. and to that of the second Woe upon the sounding of the sixth Angel chap. 9. 13. and chap. 11. where they are said to tread the holy Citie under foot fourty and two months vers. 2. Every place agreeing to that in Dan. 7. 25. speaking in order of one and the same things the Dragon or Pagan Empire first tyranizeth the Beast or Horn that had eyes succeeds him in his throne the Saints are slain for the word of God and not worshipping the Beast the great day of the Lord followeth in every place Now concerning the soules of them that during the reigne of the Beast should be beheaded for not worshiping the Beast c. I request you unto whom I present all these things wel to consider Iohn doth not say And I saw the souls that were beheaded as if such a thing could be Neither doth he say I saw the bodies that were beheaded they lived reigned with Christ a thousand yeares as the Millinaries would seem to expound him or turn the words conceiving that Iohn nameth the Soule for the Body and would have a resurrection of the body to be meant and it to be the first resurrection Iohn speakes of which is not so for the words are plain And I saw the souls of them that were beheaded c. And they that is to say their souls liv●d and ●eigned with Christ c. not their bodies that were beheaded but their souls onely Neither may the soule be named for the body in the resurrection of the body as to rise from the dead with it or for it or for both because it is a meere falshood and a contrad●ctory thing Iohn might as well and as truly have said I s●w the s●uls that were beheaded and so have named the soule for the beheading of the body as for the resurrection of it if it had been a thing sensible or true but he saith and that sensibly and truly And I saw the souls of them c. When those bodies of Saints which slept arose Matth. 27. 52 53. it is not said their souls arose but their bodies onely And although in some other cases while the soule and the body liveth together the soule being the principall part of man may be named for both as Gen. 46. All the souls of the House of Iacob wch came into Egypt were threesoore t●n yet in this case it cannot be so except they will make the soule to dye or be ●lain with the body and so lye dead in the grave with it that it may rise with it as some of them have been bold to say and some to publish contrary to many cleare testimonies of Scripture and to the words of Christ Iohn 11. 25. I am the resurrection and the life he that beleeveth in me though he were dead yet shall he live and whosoever liveth and beleeveth in me shall never dye By which words it is evident that whosoever is once quickned and made alive again in soule by faith in Christ from that spirituall death which it being once alive in Adam was brought unto by the fall and his own sinnes this soule shall never dye more he is passed from death to life as Christ saith Iohn 5. 24 25. and Christ will raise his body up at the last day according to his word Iohn 6. 4. It is true that the soules of the unregenerate reprobates which were never quickned and made alive again by faith from that death they had by the fall and their own sinnes their bodies dying their soules remain spiritually dead in some low place of darknesse where evill spirits are untill the last day when both body and soule shall come forth and live to undergoe the second death So then when Iohn saith And I saw the soules of them that were beheaded for the testimony of Iesus c. and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand yeares he meaneth their soules and not their bodies and by a thousand yeares all the time of the Dragons being bound and the Beasts reigne and thei● bodies suffering for the word of God c. even to the loosing of the Dragon and end of the world according also to that in Rev. 6. where the soules under the Altar cryed saying How long O Lord holy and true dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell upon the earth And white robes were given unto every one of them and it w●s said unto them that they should rest yet for a little season untill their fellow-servants and their brethren which should be killed 〈◊〉 they were should be fulfilled vers. 9 10 11. which must needs be understood from the beginning of the Beasts reigne when they first began to suffer for those causes unto the end of the world because their brethren that should be killed as they were would not be fulfilled till then and all the Saints are in one kind or other killed for Christs sake as it is written For thy sake O Lord are we slain all the day long and counted as sheep to the slaughter And because this resurrection of the soule is effected here while the soule is in the body by the Word and Spirit of God as Iohn well knew according to that which Christ had said Iohn 5. 21 24 25. and 11 4 5 6. and to that of Paul Ephes. 2. 1 4 5 6. Col. 2. 12 13. Col. 3. 1 2. 2 Cor. 4. 16. Ephes. 4. 23. Titus 3. 5. and other places and was also in those dayes well known to the Saints in consideration whereof Iohn saith This is the first Resurrection The first implying plainly that it is the very fi●st in which every Saint hath his part and therefore he saith again to the comfort of them all in their afflictions here Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first res●rrection on such the second death hath no power but they shall be Priests of God and of Christ and shall reigne with him a thousand yeares even till Christ shall come in his glory and avenge their blood and raise their bodies and receive them body and
