A58888 A discoverie of the vvorld to come according to the Scriptures the first part thereof being didactical, or such as contains a form of positive doctrine : wherein 1. The doctrine of the world to come is propounded, explicated, confirmed, and applyed in a more familiar method then formerly hath been observed, 2. The doctrine of millenaries, touching a new reformed church in the latter times, which they call a new world, is confuted, 3. Sundry passages of holy writ are interpreted in reference to the world to come, which have been formerly wrested, and forced in a wrong sense / written by J. Seager... Seager, J.

useful_a use_n sundr●_n way_n as_o first_o by_o what_o have_v be_v say_v we_o may_v discern_v some_o difference_n betwixt_o eternal_a salvation_n and_o eternal_a life_n because_o eternal_a salvation_n in_o a_o proper_a sense_n shall_v be_v a_o eternal_a preservation_n from_o the_o evil_n of_o the_o world_n to_o come_v but_o eternal_a life_n in_o a_o proper_a sense_n shall_v be_v a_o eternal_a

and_o so_o he_o shall_v one_o day_n have_v a_o personal-humane_a kingdom_n this_o ground_n shall_v firm_o be_v hold_v against_o such_o as_o think_v that_o christ_n shall_v never_o have_v a_o personal-humane_a kingdom_n but_o say_v that_o the_o personal_a kingdom_n of_o christ_n be_v and_o ever_o shall_v be_v only_o a_o spiritual_a kingdom_n and_o though_o i_o do_v not_o read_v much_o yet_o i_o have_v read_v two_o or_o three_o book_n print_v of_o late_a year_n which_o speak_v much_o of_o the_o personal_a reign_n or_o kingdom_n of_o christ_n but_o what_o they_o speak_v they_o

he_o shall_v never_o be_v a_o humane_a king_n nor_o have_v a_o humane_a kingdom_n in_o this_o world_n moreover_o we_o know_v that_o christ_n shall_v not_o come_v again_o in_o his_o humane_a nature_n before_o this_o present_a world_n shall_v be_v dissolve_v and_o a_o other_o world_n shall_v be_v create_v instead_o hereof_o and_o if_o christ_n shall_v not_o come_v again_o in_o his_o humane_a
