Because this Throne and Sanctuary being for ever can never have any other end but that of the Kingdom deliver'd up to God and to the Father at the Time of the White Throne which is not an end but a perfection into an Absolute Etern●ty and all Defilement for ever separated into the Lake 1 Cor. 15. 24. with Revel 20. 11. c. to the End I Have then Fix'd upon the General shades and Lines of this Vision and found by very Great Assurances that it presents a Supernatural State of Purity and Glory Reaching down from the Throne of God or the New Heaven to the New Earth the Place of the Soles of his Feet and in both a Temple State of the Highest Enjoyment of God I have also found by the Exquisiteness of the Date It is the Epoch or Head of Time from the Typical Jubilee at that Time to the Great Jubilee of the World the Kingdom of Christ and that within Two years of it God began the Calendar of Time from this Vision to that Kingdom at the end in Nebuchadnezzar's Image as I have elsewhere made out and Forty years after or at the end of the Forty Days for Years after this Vision wherein Ezekiel bare the Sin of Judah to the end of the Captivity God super-added a second Vision of the same Four Monarchies under the Emblem of Four Beasts Dan. 8. and that the space of those Monarchies might be more distinctly and certainly known He gave also within Two yerrs after 2300 Evens Morns Days also for Years to the Cleansing or as the Original is the Justifying this very Sa●ctuary and to the great Sabbatism of the New Creation and to the Kingdom of the Prince of Princes the Antichristian Desolator of the Sanctuary being Broken first without Hand Dan. 8. 25. which 2300 Evens Morns ending with the 1335 Days This Heavenly State is divided also by Lot Dan. 12. 12. 13. And now we are upon the 2200th and 18th of these Evenings Mornings There remain then but Seven to the Opening this Temple to be seen first in Heaven and but 75 beyond that to the coming down of the New Jerusalem All this being thus settled I come to Adjust the Substantial Spiritual meaning to the External Types of the Vision and to shew the High Rationality of the Correspondencies between the one and the other in answer to the second Question Correspondency 1. This Vision most Evidently and Illustriously presents the Highest Temple State or of the Tabernacle of God with Men A Temple and all the Forms Laws Ordinances and Measures of it runs through the Vision Now a Temple is a Place or Building wherein there is an Expectation of a divine presence or Gods coming down in a Communication of Himself to his Rational Creatures as at a distance from his Highest Glory and Presence and his being also pleas'd Graciously there to Receive their Tenders of Homage and service in Adorations and Praises This is the True notion of a Temple The very Highest Heaven is a Temple to the Angels and Glorified Spirits * He Humbles Himself Psal 113. 6. wherein God coming out of the Infinity of his own Glory and Being is pleas'd to hold Communion with them The whole lower World and Paradise especially was a Temple to Adam before his Fall And in Regard of the divine omnipresence Every place is a Temple and so He dwells not in Temples made with Hands but is Worshipped every where by Acts 17. 24. John 4. 21. 1 Kings 8. 27. them who Worship Him in Spirit and Truth For seeing the Heaven of Heavens cannot contain Him how much less a Temple as Solomon the Builder of his Temple tells us God therefore very Tender of this Glory and the Fallen nature of Man most prone to violate it by Idolatry and Superstition There was no Temple or other place or indeed Form of Worship to be devoted to Him but by his own Appointment The first Appointment of place by God was the Tabernacle Exod. 25. 40. in the Wilderness the exact Measures and Pattern of which Gad gave to Moses and He was with Greatest Caution to observe it Solomon by the same Divine Pattern and Inspiration 1 Chron. 28. 11. Built the Temple It was after the Babylonish Desolation restor'd under Cyrus c. as near as might be to the old form c. All this was too Low and serv'd only as a Shaddow for the Time Being For it was too Low too often defiled and violated by Corruption within and Pagan Fury without It was Finally destroyed by the Romans yet it always remain'd a Type of the True Temple that is to be This Vision of Ezekiel joyn'd with that of John Revel 21. Give that True Temple wherein God and the Lamb will be the Temple and that Temple gives to the City the name Jehovah Shammah The Lord is there Here now is the Reason why there is in this Vision so much of a Temple Frame and Appearance To shew forth and foretell the State of the New Jerusalem wherein the Presence of God in Christ shall be most Free and Illustrious shewing his Love and Favour to his Servants and
Re-Reformation I have Lastly published the Prophetical Song of Solomon from the Kingdom of David the Type to the Kingdom of the Great David the Antitipe Shewing its Stupendious Configurations with all Prophecy There now Remains to fill up the Line of Time from the Going out of Egypt to the Building the Temple and so to Solomon's Death and from thence to the Restoring that Temple by Cyrus and therein to Solve the Difficulties of the 480 Years in the History 1 Kings 6. 1. and the 450 Acts 13. 20. and to Clear that the 390 Days and 40 Days of Ezekiel's lying on his side continue the Line from Solomon's Death and the One Kingdom of Israel Becoming Two to the Restoration by Cyrus And upon all this I Find it necessary in an entire Discourse to clear by plain Positive Doctrinal Scripture in compare with Prophetical that There is such a Kingdom of Christ as of the 1090 Years New Heaven above and the New Earth below that Begins with a Judgment by the Vials and ends in the Casting the Last Enemies the Devil Hell and Death into the Lake and between Those is a Thousand Years Kingdom of Visible Glory of Christ and his Saints after the manner of his Transfiguration above and after the manner of Adam in Paradise below and Full of Holy Spirituality and Enjoyment of the Redemption of Christ Free from all Cerinthian or Millenarian Heresie and shining in that Divine Oeconomy or Preparational Glory until the Kingdom is deliver'd up to God and the Father All in All. And Lastly To shew that the Lords Prayer the Sacraments of Baptism and of the Lords Supper even as I have shown the Sabbaths of the Old and New Testament have their Continuance and their Great use as the only Ceremonials of the New Testament in Typing out that Great Kingdom Upon all this I Humbly Propose to every Reader that is Favourable hereunto and of Ability to Assist me by Contributions for Thirty Sheets more to compleat the Work at a Penny a sheet and a Seventh Book to Six Subscribers or as they please in further Assistances to be Given either to my self or to Mr. Salusbury at the Rising Sun in Cornhill And the Press shall be daily going on to Finish the Work And with Faith Hope and Prayer Let us if we Love the Kingdom and Appearance of Christ Humbly and Earnestly wait for the Great Revolution I Affirm of the Kingdom of Christ at 1697 to enter into its Succession and 75 Years after viz. 1772 to begin in the 1000 Years Appearance in Glory Month 11. Day 29. 1689 90. The Pattern of the Divine Temple Sanctuary and City of the New Jerusalem Measur'd according to Ezekiels Last and Greatest Vision c. 40. c. 41. c. to the End AT a day of a most Certain and exact Date when Jerusalem and its Temple lay in Ruins God shews in Vision to Ezekiel not a Model nor a Direction to any persons to Build according to it but a Building in Actual Being and therefore a Building made without Hands 2 Cor. 5. 1 Revel 21 10. Heb. 10. 11. 16. whose Builder and Maker God is Eternal in the Heavens from whence It is to come down in the New Heaven and the New Earth viz. a Temple a City that hath Foundations and a Countrey Lying about it the principal State of which is Heavenly but to shine down to the New Earth from the New Heaven Rev. 21. 24. The Preparation to the Vision 1. The Date is above the Exactness of any Record viz. By the Year of Captivity It is first dated and thereby it is Joyn'd with the Thirtieth Year in the Beginning of Ezekiel's c. 1. 1. Prophecy which being set alone without any other note of Time can in no fair Construction be any other Thirtieth Year but from the Last Jubilee according to General Jewish Style of Time and that being the Fifth year of Jehoiachins Captivity and the present year of the Vision being the Twenty Fifth year of that Captivity It shews it to be the Fiftieth c. 40. 1. year and so the year of Jubilee Fitly to Represent the Great Jubilee of the World that shall be in this Vision Accomplish'd It was on the Tenth day of the Month Answering the day of the first Institution of the Passeover when also will be the Exod. 12. 1. Dan. 12. 1. Matt. 24. 21. Rev. 3. 10. Greatest Passeover of Deliverance from the Great Trouble Tribulation and Temptation which shall come on all the Reprobate Earth but the Saints shall be privilegd'd from it It was in the Beginning of the Year or Spring on which the Greatest Acts of God are Recorded and which God E●od 12. 1. made the Head of the Sacred Year It was in the Fourteenth year after the City was 〈…〉 To shew it was in the deep Desolation of the Temple and City of Jerusalem and Land of Israel as the Season of Mercy For when his Servants are the lowest Then in the Mount the Lord will be seen Gen. 22. 14. with Ez. 40. 2. Lastly It was the Self Same Day and thereby the Time is Gen. 2. 1. c. 7. 11. 13. 2 Pet. 3. 7. 8. Knit to the self same day of the Creation and First Sabboth To the self same day of the Flood when the World that then was Perish'd by Water Answerably the Heavens and Earth that now are are Treasur'd up for Fire Even for the day when this very Vision shall come into high effect All Great Epochs 2. The Theatre of the Vision is the City Jerusalem that then lay in Ruin and the Land of Israel under Desolation whether the Prophet Ezekiel was carried by a Divine Ha●d in the Visions of God Agreeable to so Great Visions of God as will be when this Jerusalem comes down from Heaven 3. This wonderful Measurer whose Appearance was as Brass as the Feet of Jesus Christ are Represented in the Prophecy of Daniel and in the Revelation This Measurer is parallel to the wonderful Numberer call'd Palmoni in the Margin of the Bible Dan. 8. 13. Knitting both Visions 4. There is a Charge upon Ezekiel obliging all his Powers of Attention and Observation Son of Man see with thy Eyes Hear with thy Ears and set thy Heart upon All that I shew thee c. 40. v. 4. which Charge is renewed c. 44. 5. shewing how weighty and how sublime a State this Temple-Communion with God shall be 5. There is a Charge upon Ezekiel to shew to the House of Israel All that He saw c. 40. v. 40. and then c. 43. 10. to shew them the House that They may be Asham'd of their Iniquities and let Them saith the Lord Measure the Pattern And if They are Asham'd shew them All the Forms Laws and Ordinances c. of the House Now this I look upon as chiefly Prophetical of the Time when the Temple shall be Open'd in Heaven And it shall Tend to the Great Purification of the Churches of
