A02880	Heauens ioy, or, Heauen begun vpon earth Wherein there is discouered more plainely than euer formerly. The happy and surpassing glorious estate of a iustified person, or a saint on earth. Also that greater happinesse at the day of iudgement. And a small tast of that greatest and most glorious estate prepared for vs in the highest heauens. Also the writer will bee ready to defend what is here written against all opposers whatsoeuer.	Traske, John, d. ca. 1638, attributed name.	1616 (1616)	STC 13019; ESTC S118657	50,366	168

h Is 55.12 And amongst other blessings that the Church is promised when shee shall bee glorious euen on earth this is one that they shall build houses and inhabite them and they shall plant vineyards and eate the fruite of them i Is 65.21 So spake our Lord of Zacharias This day is saluation come to this House for so much as he is also the Sonne of Abraham k Luc. 19.9 This is very manifest if wee consider the blessings and the Curses promised and denounced to and against the obedient and disobedient l Louit 26. Deut. 28. So that hence we may now truly conclude That the earnest expectation of the Creature waiteth for the manifestation of the Sonnes of God For the Creature was made subiect to vanitie not willing by reason of him who hath subiected the same in hope Because the Creature it selfe also shall be deliuered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious Libertie of the Children of God For we knowe that the whole Creation groaneth and trauaileth in paine togither vntill now m Rom. 8.19 20.21.22 And it is euident that the creatures are freed from bondage when Gods children are made manifest to bee such as it is plaine by this one Scripture if there were no more A righteous man regardeth the life of his beast but the tender mercies of the wicked are cruell n Pro. 12.10 But all this being but a passage to this Loue of the Creatures to vs when we are once reconciled to God and the restitution of them to their former libertie we will come yet to that which shall manifestly discouer this as where it is written That the man whom God chasteneth whom he maketh sore and bindeth vp whom he woundeth and his hands make whole Such an one shall be deliuered in six troubles and in seuen none euill shall touch him He shall not bee affraid of the Beastes of the Earth for hee shall bee in league with the stones of the Field and the beastes of the Field shall be at Peace with him o Iob. 5.17.23 Also where God speakes of reconciling a people to himselfe wee haue the same thing set forth thus That Day I will make a couenant for them with the Beastes of the Field and with the foules of Heauen and with the creeping thinges of the ground and I will breake the Bowe and the Sword and the Battell out of the Earth and I will make them to lye downe safely And I will betroth thee vnto me for euer Yea I will betroth thee vnto me in Righteousnes and in Iudgement in louing kindnesse and in mercies I will euen betroth thee vnto me in Faithfulnesse and thou shalt knowe the Lord. And it shall come to passe in that Day I will heare saith the Lord I will heare the Heauens and they shall heare the Earth And the Earth shall heare the Corne and the Wine and the Oyle and they shall heare Iezreel p Hos 2.18.22 Also wee haue the expresse promise of God where it is written Thus saith the Lord that created thee ô Iacob and hee that formed thee ô Israel feare not for I haue redeemed thee I haue called thee by thy name thou art mine when thou passest through the waters I wil be with thee and through the riuers they shall not ouerflowe thee when thou walkest through the fire thou shalt not be burnt neither shall the flame kindle vpon thee For I am the Lord thy God the holy one of Israel thy Sauior a Is 43.1.2.3 Also behold I haue created the smith that bloweth the coales in the fire and that bringeth foorth an instrument for his worke and I haue created the water to destroy No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper and euery tongue that shal rise against thee in Iudgment thou shalt condemne b Is 54.16 Of this league betweene Gods reconciled children and the Creatures there are many examples found in Scriptures yea such as God hath but respected outwardly haue receiued this priuiledge As of the readinesse to fight for Gods children and take part with such as God hath fauoured as the readinesse of the sea and the wind to make way for the children of Israel to passe thorow as on dry land c Ex. 14.21 And of the earth how ready was it to open her mouth d Num. 16.32.33 and to swallow vp Corah Dathan and Abiram and all their rebellious company who were Moses aduersaries Also how ready was the fire to consume 250. more of that proude Conspiracy e ver 35. How ready was the Sunne and Moone to stay their course till Ioshua and the people of Israel had auenged themselues on their enemies f Ios 10.13 Also that glorious Song of Deborah They fought from Heauen the Starres in their courses fought against Sisera g Iudge 5.20 How readily did the Rauens bring fleshe and bread morning and euening to refresh Elijah h 1. King 17.6 How readily came those Beares to teare the children that mocked Elisha i 2. King 2.24 Also how readily did that fire descend from Heauen to consume those two proude Captaines and their fifties k 2. King 1.10.12 How readily did the fire drowne those valiant men that vndertooke the casting of the three Children into the firie fornace l Dan. 3.22 Also how speedily did those Lions euen breake all the bones in peeces of Daniels enemies ere they came at the ground On the contrary we see their vnwillingnes to touch Daniell for hurt m Dan. 6.22.25 And of the three children Shadrach Meshach and Abednego That freedom from the fire is wonderfull of whom wee reade That when they came forth out of the midst of the fire And the Princess Gouernour Captaines and the Kings Counsellours being gathered together saw them vpon whose bodies the fire had no Power nor was an haire of their head sindged neither were their coates changed nor the smell of fire had passed on them n Dan. 3.26 27. And of Daniel it is recorded That where he was taken out of the Lions denne no manner of hurt was found vpon him because he beleeued in his God o Dan. 6.23 And thus you haue the Loue of the creatures and the certainty of their reconciliation ●o the Children of God when ●●nce they themselues are reconci●ed For if they haue beene so or●ered before their reconciliation ●hat they haue not touched them ●or hurt but haue fought for them ●ow much more when they are re●onciled and made manifest in●eed to be the Sons and Daugh●ers of the Lord Almightie And ●urely this is no small outward be●efit neither is it slightly to be pas●ed ouer as many vse but seriously ●o be weighed and considered of ●hat the praise of that may be ren●red vnto the giuer thereof as wel ●s for the rest Another outward Benefit which ●uch enioy is the Aboundance of ●ll good things for the body

and I knowe my selfe to be in Christ by that I am a newe creature And when I take a viewe of my Folly and ignorance how brutish I haue beene it doeth euen couer mee with blushing and shame and when withall I doe call to minde what aboundance of wisedome I haue obtained since Christ became my wisedome yea when I consider Gods wonderfull liberalitie in opening to me his treasury of wisedome and knowledge and bidding mee aske what I will this doeth many times amaze me and wonderfully astonish mee that so vile a person as I am should bee trusted with Treasures of such value and Pearles of such price I doe thinke thus with my selfe what am I that I should be so regarded as that my mouth should be made a Well of Life my lippes should know what is acceptable that they should feede many and that other should seeke the Lawe at my mouth That such Wisedome and Spirit should be giuen me that all mine aduersaries should not be able to gainsay or resist oh blessed be my God for euermore oh let my tongue neuer cease to sound foorth his prayses and to tell of his louing kindnesse from day to day And when I looke without me me thinkes the Communion of Saints doeth rauish me the feruent Loue which we haue amongst our selues whereas I was once a companion of Murderers such I meane as vnaduisedly would breake out into anger wrath and rage disclose secrets breake couenants carry tales to shedde blood amongst whom though I sometimes blessed my selfe yet was my condition fearefull for I could expect nothing but death euery day such was the vncertaintie of any staiednesse in their familiaritie But now I am a Companion of the Sonnes of Peace All my Familiars are Peacemakers wee are one an others Keepers Many wholesome exhortations Louing instructions and Amiable reprooffes doe passe betweene vs. Manie are the feruent Prayers we put vp one for another yea all that wee haue we account not our owne in one anothers necessitie Our Loue is not in word and in Tongue but in deed and in Truth It is continually increased and doeth daily Flourish Oh what comfort is it to meete in great Assemblies in the time of Peace to heare the Word break Bread togither and to ioyne in heartie prayers and praises to our louing Father Also I now doe plainly see that we haue more with vs then against vs For I was wont to consider of the multitude of wicked men in the world and how they bandie themselues and conspire against the Saintes but now I see their attempts are exceeding weake for wee haue our Seate on high and are compassed round with a Wall of Fyre yea the Angels of God as Chariots of Fire and Horses of Fyre doe compasse vs round continually Yea they also beholde our Fathers face in Heauen readie to execute vengeance on our aduersaryes and to beare vs in theyr hands that wee hurt not our foote against a stone Besides all this the Creatures were at enmitie with me the Sunne Moone and Starres in theyr courses the Earth would haue swallowed the Water drowned the Fire consumed me yea the Winde would haue throwne downe Trees and Houses vpon mee the very stones of the Fielde were at oddes with mee the Beasts Fowles and Creaping things at variance The Corne Wine and Oyle these did as it were disdaine or refuse to yeeld me strength whereas now on the contrarie the sweete Familiaritie which is betweene vs is exceeding great The Sunne will not hurt me by day nor the Moone by night the Heauens doe as it were smyle vpon mee the Fire warmes me the water yeelds me moysture the Earth habitation the Ayre refreshing What shall I say Mee thinkes I see the Fire comming from Heauen the Water preparing the Earth opening wide her mouth the Ayre threatning yea all the Creatures mustering themselues and in continuall readinesse to execute vengeance vpon such as shal euer dare to touch me for hurt And all these are accompanyed with aboundance of all necessaries for my selfe and my children and whereas before I was in continuall want in the midst of plenty and euer caring for more though I had enough Now haue I abundance of all thinges with gteat Contentment that hundred fold gaine by Godlinesse yea I can truely say I can be abased and I can abounde I haue learned in what estate so euer therewith to be content Yea I know that I shall neuer want any thing that is good neyther shall my children beg their bread And when to this I can adde the sure continuance of this estate and doe knowe that I shall neuer be remoued neither is my estate subiect to Change but I shall increase not decrease growe not dye goe forwards not backwards flourish decay and that I am in Christ as stable firme and vnmooueable as God is stable firme and vnmooueable this doeth so rauish me with comfort that it drawes teares from mine eyes I cannot but reioyce exceedingly And yet further when I thinke on my estate to come at that day which will be a dreadfull day to the wicked I finde that all this which I haue cald to minde is very little yea scarse a handfull of the whole sand of the Sea in comparison of that blessednesse then to bee receiued Then when our glorious Lord the Lord of Glory shall descend from Heauen with a shout with the voyce of an Arch-angell and which the Trumpe of God when hee shall come most gloriously in his owne Glory his fathers Glory and the Glory of all his holy and mightie Angels attended with tenne thousands of his Saints in flaming fire to be glorified in them When he shal sit vpon the throne of his Glory and all nations shall bee gathered before him and he shal seperate them one from another as the shepherd diuideth his sheepe from the Goates and hauing set the sheepe on his right hand then shall this King of Glory say vnto them on his right hand Come yee blessed of my Father inherite the Kingdome prepared for you from the foundations of the world Then shall I with the rest of Gods redeemed ones passe away with great triumph and in a glorious manner enter those heauenly Mansions to take possession of my euerlasting habitation There I shall see God face to face Yea I shall know him euen as I am knowen Then shall I be like him for I shall see him as he is And when this my corruptible body hath put on Incorruption and this Mortall bopy hath put on immortalitie then shal be fully and perfectly brought to passe for mee and all the elect that which before was truely beleeued That death is swallowed vp in victory And will not this bee a wonderfull and most glorious estate when I shall shine foorth as the Sunne in his greatest glitter and most glorious brightnesse when I shall bee as the Angels in Heauen alwaies beholding the face God Where I shall haue no companions but
