devoured them v. 9. which was the temporal execution of Gods judgement on Satans last hosts 10. Whereupon follows the eternal execution of Gods wrath upon Satan himself for he is then cast into the lake of fire and brimstone to be tormented perpetually with the Beast and false Prophet sent thither above 1000 years before by means of his seducement v. 10. 11. Hereupon ensues the general Judgement first manifested in the sudden dissolution of the whole frame and fabrick of nature in that heaven and earth flee away from the face of him that the great white Throne was set for to sit upon who had upheld all things till then by the word of his power Heb. 1.3 who it seems then will ●●solve them into the first Chaos of confusion upon the ranture and chinge of the Saints but from thence no place will be found for them v. 11. but as Job saith these material heavens shall be no more But then 12. and lastly The general Judgement proceeds of all men good and bad both in respect of declaration or sentence and execution accordingly as in many particulars is set down to the end of the Chapter And whereas Hell and Death are in the issue said to be cast into the lake of fire and brimstone first by hell there may be understood the grave as sheol in the old Testament Ps 16. and Gen. 42.38 so 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 in the new 1 Cor. 15.55 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 O grave where is thy victory in which Chapter what the Apostle Paul had taught of destroying the last enemy death is here metaphorical described to be fulfilled to wit in its capacity the subject matter of death and hell in that sence being now for ever taken away thenceforth no more use of either to be at all whereby Christ is made the death of death and death the last enemy to be destroyed will then as he speaks be swallowed up in victory Now as the Jews looking only at Christs second glorious coming foretold in the old Testament did usually-overlook such things as set forth the humility of his first coming for both his first and second coming as Mr. Mede observes are promiscuously set down in the old Testament except in Daniel so Christians under the new Testament have been apt to overlook the first resurrection called in Scripture the resurrection of the just under a confused notion taken up of the last general resurrection which once for all for the mysteries thereof were revealed by degrees our Saviour hath by his beloved Disciple John so fully at last declared by an orderly explication of both in this 20th Chap. of the Rev. for a sure Key to open otherwise much mystical Scripture concerning the last times of the good world as part of the 11th Chap. before to v. 15. was a Table for part of this Book in reference to the order of the bad times of the former evil world to chap. 19. adjoyning to it there the state of the good world to follow it with the continuance thereof chap. 19 and 20. and proceeds further in the two last Chapters to explain the glorious state and priviledges of it as he is wont in this Book after things more generally delivered to give more particular explications of them so here when he had spoken of joy at the marriage of the Lamb chap. 19. and that his wise had made her self ready v. 7. which he explains chap. 21.9 10. to be the New Jerusalem come down from God out of heaven which appears to be the spirits of just men made perfect which then came with Christ at his second coming as Zach. had prophesied of them c. being by a Metonimy of the subject the inhabitants of the New Jerusalem above Gal. 4. till they came to take their bodies wherefore that City prepared Heb. 11.10 16. for the faithfull is said to have foundations and so is described Rev. 21. And the Apostle Paul explains Zach. in 1 Thes 3.14 calling it the coming of Christ with all his Saints and in chap. 4.14 yet more clearly he saith them also that sleep in Jesus will God bring with him viz. to be united to their bodies at the first blessed resurrection to inhabit the said New Jerusalem on earth that hath foundations and behold Christs glory there Joh. 17.24 And that this first resurrection is from the death of the body hath been cleared by many but Mr. Farnworth in his Millenium hath added lately divers evident reasons respecting that and other matters of like nature pag. 49 50 c. and proves that it cannot be understood of a spiritual resurrection to which purpose were divers hints given in the end of our Irenicon see the Appendix And thus much for the grounds of our first demonstration from those Scriptures that concern all the said particulars to which a great deal more might be added of which we may say as our Saviour of Moses the Prophets that such as would not believe them they would not believe though one rose from the dead so such as would reject or evade so many evidences of Scripture would not believe though many more of the like nature were added so hardly are prepossessed opinions and prejudices against some divine Truths of this nature removed amongst some c. as I confess I experimentally found till God was pleased by many providences and helps afforded together with remarkable guidance of his word and spirit to teach me otherwise as he must doe in some things before men will rightly learn them though by the strength of Arguments conviction may be wrought c. Now from all the particulats before in and after the said thousand years of Christs reign with his Saints the Argument may thus be framed All such particulars which the holy Scriptures declare shall be accomplished before in and after the said thousand years shall certainly be fulfilled But the holy Scriptures declare most or all the said particulars before in or after the said thousand years to be accomplished on earth Therefore then they most certainly shall be fulfilled on earth The Major Proposition is undeniable to Christians The Minor is abundantly proved from many or all the particulars before specified under the three heads 2d Arg. I proceed to the second Argument drawn from sundry Texts of the Old Testament speaking of what concerns that time of Christs Kingly Office in the thousand years which are so explained by the spirit of God in the New Testament First for the begining of Christs Kingdom of power on earth when the Stone becomes a Mountain Dan. 2.35 Answerable whereunto in Christs Kingdom of the Stone he is set forth by a Lamb Rev. 5. that was slain that had seven horns and seven eyes denoting his perfect power and wisdom in that state but at the end of it he comes with his heavenly Hosts Rev. 19.11 c. and conquers the Beast and false Prophet and casts them into the Lake chap. 20. binds
