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.

may_v be_v here_o demand_v whether_o christ_n quest_n shall_v come_v from_o the_o three_o heaven_n at_o this_o next_o return_n of_o he_o with_o a_o purpose_n to_o leave_v it_o to_o which_o demand_n i_o answer_v thus_o first_o the_o three_o answ_n heaven_n may_v be_v consider_v as_o the_o most_o high_a and_o holy_a place_n of_o the_o godhead_n father_n son_n and_o holy_a ghost_n and_o so_o i_o say_v that_o christ_n consider_v only_o as_o god_n shall_v never_o leave_v it_o because_o it_o be_v the_o essential_a place_n of_o the_o godhead_n second_o it_o may_v be_v consider_v as_o it_o be_v now_o the_o place_n of_o christ_n humane_a nature_n wherein_o he_o reign_v with_o the_o father_n as_o god_n and_o man_n in_o on●_n person_n and_o so_o i_o believe_v that_o christ_n at_o his_o secon●_o come_v from_o the_o three_o heaven_n shall_v leave_v it_o altogether_o never_o to_o possess_v it_o again_o as_o former_o nor_o as_o the_o constant_a place_n of_o his_o habitation_n yet_o i_o deny_v not_o but_o conceive_v that_o after_o this_o descension_n of_o his_o he_o may_v be_v take_v up_o again_o in_o his_o humane_a nature_n at_o some_o time_n into_o the_o three_o heaven_n for_o some_o end_n know_v only_o to_o god_n as_o saint_n paul_n once_o be_v before_o hi●_n death_n but_o still_o i_o think_v that_o at_o his_o next_o return_n from_o this_o heaven_n in_o his_o humane_a nature_n he_o shall_v leave_v i●_n altogether_o as_o the_o dwell_a place_n of_o his_o humane_a nature_n and_o that_o for_o these_o reason_n 1._o the_o three_o heaven_n be_v not_o promise_v to_o christ_n for_o a_o everlasting_a habitation_n but_o only_o for_o a_o certain_a time_n as_o may_v be_v see_v in_o these_o place_n sit_v thou_o at_o my_o right_a hand_n until_o i_o make_v thy_o enemy_n thy_o

shall_v be_v make_v good_a unto_o he_o at_o his_o second_o come_v and_o not_o before_o and_o if_o the_o three_o heaven_n be_v not_o promise_v unto_o he_o for_o a_o everlasting_a habitation_n but_o for_o such_o a_o time_n as_o be_v express_v in_o the_o promise_n than_o we_o may_v well_o think_v that_o at_o his_o second_o come_v from_o this_o heaven_n he_o shall_v leave_v it_o altogether_o as_o it_o be_v the_o dwell_a place_n of_o his_o humane_a nature_n 2._o it_o be_v say_v that_o this_o three_o heaven_n shall_v receive_v or_o contain_v christ_n but_o for_o a_o certain_a time_n viz._n

according_a to_o the_o decree_n and_o promise_v of_o god_n and_o if_o so_o then_o doubtless_o christ_n at_o his_o second_o come_v from_o this_o heaven_n shall_v leave_v it_o altogether_o consider_v as_o the_o dwell_a place_n of_o his_o humane_a nature_n 3._o it_o be_v write_v that_o christ_n at_o his_o second_o come_v from_o this_o heaven_n shall_v resign_v or_o deliver_v up_o the_o kingdom_n to_o god_n even_o the_o father_n 1_o cor._n 15._o 24._o and_o what_o kingdom_n be_v this_o that_o he_o shall_v then_o deliver_v up_o to_o his_o father_n ans_fw-fr 1._o i_o do_v not_o say_v with_o some_o writer_n that_o he_o shall_v then_o deliver_v up_o his_o mediatory_a kingdom_n to_o his_o father_n because_o this_o kingdom_n which_o belong_v unto_o he_o as_o he_o be_v the_o son_n of_o

second_o come_v at_o least_o in_o order_n of_o nature_n but_o i_o say_v that_o he_o shall_v then_o resign_v and_o deliver_v up_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n proper_o so_o call_v as_o it_o be_v his_o father_n personal_a kingdom_n unto_o the_o sole_a dispose_n and_o government_n of_o his_o father_n that_o so_o his_o father_n may_v be_v all_o in_o all_o in_o it_o as_o he_o be_v before_o christ_n come_n thither_o 1_o cor._n 15._o 28._o and_o if_o he_o shall_v resign_v this_o kingdom_n to_o god_n even_o the_o father_n than_o we_o may_v well_o think_v that_o at_o his_o next_o come_v from_o this_o heaven_n in_o his_o humane_a nature_n he_o shall_v leave_v it_o altogether_o as_o it_o be_v the_o dwell_a place_n of_o his_o humane_a nature_n 4._o it_o be_v say_v that_o christ_n after_o his_o

while_o christ_n remain_v in_o the_o three_o heaven_n in_o his_o humane_a nature_n and_o as_o the_o person_n of_o a_o mediator_n we_o be_v not_o to_o consider_v he_o as_o the_o father_n subject_n because_o he_o be_v there_o after_o a_o sort_n equal_a with_o his_o father_n his_o father_n have_v advance_v he_o at_o his_o own_o right_a hand_n upon_o his_o own_o throne_n and_o have_v give_v unto_o he_o all_o power_n in_o heaven_n and_o in_o earth_n but_o after_o his_o come_n from_o thence_o he_o shall_v be_v subject_a to_o his_o father_n as_o he_o be_v before_o his_o ascension_n and_o if_o so_o then_o doubtless_o at_o his_o second_o come_v from_o this_o heaven_n he_o shall_v leave_v it_o as_o the_o dwell_a place_n of_o his_o humane_a nature_n 5._o have_v we_o never_o read_v that_o christ_n after_o his_o personal_a come_v from_o this_o three_o heaven_n shall_v possess_v his_o own_o personal_a kingdom_n and_o sit_v upon_o his_o own_o personal_a throne_n according_a to_o his_o father_n

and_o unless_o he_o shall_v then_o leave_v this_o three_o heaven_n altogether_o consider_v it_o as_o the_o dwell_a place_n of_o his_o humane_a nature_n six_o it_o inform_v we_o touch_v the_o place_n whither_o informat_fw-la 6_o informat_fw-la he_o shall_v come_v when_o he_o shall_v come_v again_o in_o the_o flesh_n and_o so_o i_o can_v think_v that_o he_o shall_v come_v again_o from_o heaven_n into_o this_o pollute_a world_n because_o this_o will_v be_v no_o fit_a place_n for_o a_o glorify_a person_n to_o be_v and_o reside_v in_o but_o doubtless_o he_o shall_v come_v again_o from_o heaven_n into_o the_o world_n to_o
eye_n shall_v see_v christ_n in_o his_o humane_a nature_n sit_v upon_o the_o throne_n of_o his_o glory_n rev._n 1._o 7._o mat._n 25._o 31._o and_o some_o shall_v say_v unto_o the_o mountain_n and_o

wherefore_o from_o these_o premise_n i_o infer_v that_o the_o personal-humane_a kingdom_n of_o christ_n shall_v be_v very_o visible_a and_o apparent_a unto_o man_n in_o the_o world_n to_o come_v and_o this_o ground_n shall_v be_v firm_o hold_v against_o such_o as_o think_v that_o christ_n shall_v have_v no_o personal-humane_a kingdom_n in_o the_o world_n to_o come_v because_o it_o be_v say_v that_o at_o or_o upon_o the_o end_n of_o this_o world_n he_o shall_v deliver_v up_o the_o kingdom_n to_o god_n even_o the_o father_n 1_o cor._n 15._o 24._o but_o as_o i_o have_v intimate_v before_o upon_o a_o other_o occasion_n so_o now_o i_o say_v more_o full_o that_o christ_n shall_v never_o deliver_v up_o his_o own_o kingdom_n to_o god_n even_o the_o father_n either_o his_o own_o essential_a kingdom_n or_o his_o own_o personal_a kingdom_n for_o if_o he_o shall_v deliver_v and_o resign_v his_o own_o essential_a kingdom_n than_o he_o shall_v cease_v to_o be_v a_o essential_a king_n which_o will_v be_v absurd_a to_o acknowledge_v and_o if_o he_o shall_v resign_v his_o personal_a divine_a or_o humane_a kingdom_n to_o god_n even_o the_o father_n than_o he_o shall_v cease_v to_o be_v a_o personal_a king_n or_o else_o the_o personal_a kingdom_n of_o christ_n shall_v become_v the_o personal_a kingdom_n of_o the_o father_n both_o which_o will_v be_v also_o absurd_a to_o affirm_v therefore_o the_o true_a meaning_n of_o this_o place_n be_v that_o when_o christ_n shall_v come_v again_o from_o the_o three_o heaven_n his_o father_n personal_a kingdom_n in_o his_o humane_a nature_n he_o shall_v then_o resign_v and_o deliver_v up_o this_o kingdom_n viz._n his_o father_n personal_a kingdom_n not_o his_o own_o personal_a kingdom_n to_o god_n even_o the_o father_n that_o his_o father_n may_v be_v all_o in_o all_o in_o it_o as_o he_o be_v before_o christ_n come_v thither_o in_o his_o humane_a nature_n and_o so_o this_o place_n right_o understand_v make_v nothing_o at_o all_o against_o this_o three_o ground_n four_o i_o affirm_v that_o this_o personal-humane_a ground_n 4_o ground_n kingdom_n of_o he_o belong_v to_o the_o world_n to_o come_v be_v much_o speak_v of_o in_o
