hereafter that when he at last appears we may appear with him in Glory Col. 3.4 1 Joh. 3.2 But that all the Wicked who live in Rebellion against the Light of Grace and die finally impenitent shall come forth to the Resurrection of Condemnation And that the Soul or Spirit of every Man and Woman shall be reserved in its own distinct and proper Being so as there shall be as many Souls in the World to come as in this and every Seed vea every Soul shall have its proper Body as God is pleased to give it 1 Cor. 15. A Natural Body is sown a Spiritual Body is raised that being first which is Natural and afterward that which is spiritual And tho' 't is said this corruptible shall put on incorruption and this mortal shall put on Immortality the change shall be such as Flesh and Blood cannot inherit the Kingdom of God neither doth Corruption inherit Incorruption 1 Cor. 15. Ch. We shall be raised out of all Corruption and Corruptibility out of all Mortality and the Children of God and of the Resurrection shall be Equal to the Angels of God in Heaven z Mat. 22.30 Mark 12.25 Luk. 20.36 And as the Coelestial Bodies do far excel Terrestrial so we expect our Spiritual Bodies in the Resurrection shall far excel what our Bodies now are and we hope none can justly blame us for thus expecting better Bodies than now they are Howbeit we esteem it very unnecessary to dispute or question how the Dead are raised or with what Body they come But rather submit that to the wisdom and pleasure of Almighty God 2ly For the Doctrin of Eternal Judgment God hath committed all Judgment unto his Son Jesus Christ and he is both Judge of quick and Dead and of the states and ends of all Mankind Jo. 5.22.27 Act. 10.42 2 Tim. 4.1 1 Pes 4.5 That there shall be hereafter a great Harvest Which is the End of the World a great day of Judgment and the Judgment of that great day the Holy Scripture is clear a Mat. 13.39 40 41 Ch. 10.15 and 11.24 Jude 6. When the Son of Man cometh in his Glory and all the Holy Angels with him then shall he sit upon the Throne of his Glory and before him shall be gathered all Nations c. Mat. 25.31 32. to the end compared with Chap. 22.31 Mark 8.38 Luk. 9.26 and 1 Cor 15.52 2 Thes 1.7 8. to the end and 1 Thes 4.16 Rev. 20.12 13 14 15. That this Blessed Heavenly Man this Son of Man who hath so deeply suffered and endured so many great Indignities and persecutions from his Adversaries both to himself and his Members and Brethren should at last even in the last and great day signally and manifestly appear in Glory and Triumph attended with all his glorious Heavenly Host and Retinue before all Nations before all his Enemies and those that have denied him this will be to their great terror and amazement that this most glorious Heavenly Man and his Brethren that have bin so much contemned and set at nought should be thus exalted over their Enemies and persecutors in glory and Triumph is a righteous thing with God and that they that suffer with him should appear with him in glory and dignity when he thus appears at last Christ was Judg of the World and the Prince thereof when on Earth Joh. 9.39 and 12.31 He is still Judg of the World the wickedness and Prince thereof by his Light Spirit and Gospel in Mens Hearts and Consciences Joh. 16.8 11. Matt. 12.18 20. Isa 42.1 Rom. 2.16 1 Pet. 4.6 And he will be the Judg and final determiner thereof in that great Day appointed God having appointed a Day wherein he will Judg the World in Righteousness by that Man whom he hath ordained Christ foretold it shall be more tollerable for them of the Land of Sodom and Gomorrah in the Day of Judgment than for that City or People that would not receive his Messengers or Ministers c. Matth. 10.15 and see Chap. 11.24 and Mark 6.11 Luk. 10.12 14. 'T is certain that God knows how to deliver the Godly out of all their Trials and Afflictions and at last to bring them forth and raise them up into Glory with Christ so he knoweth also how to reserve the unjust and finally Impenitent unto the Day of Judgment to be punished 2 Pet. 2.9 He will bring them forth unto the Day of Destruction Job 21.30 The Lord can and will reserve such Impenitent presumptuous and Rebellious Criminals as bound under Chains of Darkness as were the sallen Angels unto the Judgment of the great day Jude 6. Mat. 25.30 'T is not for us to determin or dispute the manner how they shall be so reserved but leave it to God he knows how Touching the Opinion of the Revolution or Transmigration of Humane Souls or their passing out of one Body into another c. as 't is deem'd originally to have sprung from the Heathen and receiv'd among Jews and some others by Tradition and said to be the Opinion of our Empedocles Pythagoras and Egyptians and partly of Julian the Apostate when he dreamed that the Soul of Alexander the Great was crept into his Carcass or rather that he was Alexander himself in another Body And thereupon Rejecting the suit of the Persians for peace presumtuously Proceeded in the War and to Bloodshed against them until at unawares he got his Deaths wound according as is more fully related in History particularly Socrates's Scholasticus Lib. 1. Ch. 17. and lib. 3. Ch. 18. Eccles Chron. fo 577. See also Dr. Hammond's Annotations on Joh. 9.1 2 3. We are not concern'd in any such notion but as a People wholly clear of it We deem it neither necessary to Faith nor safe to receive or defend as either held by those Heathen Egyptians or Jews aforesaid nor as 't is insinuated in a Late Pamphlet of 200 queries Concerning the Doctrin of the Revolution of Humane Souls Supposing twelve Revolutions or twelve distinct Intervals of Life to every Man as being twelve several times born into the World for each one to live or consummate the space of 1000 years on Earth Though this opinion of such Revolution appears not to be a point in present Controversy in the Book aforesaid or in Pensilvania nor maintained as any Divine opening Revelation or necessary Article of Faith but rather Evaded from being publickly controverted yet in as much as there appears some Ground of suspicion in the Case and as it seems to be favoured implicitely by some Therefore that we as a People may not be suspected about it we sincerely declare our Clearness from the said opinion as really esteeming it not safe to propagate or maintain or trouble Peoples Heads or Minds with it but all to improve their present time and mercies and we are the less concerned about the aforesaid Queries and Doctrin because we find not any known person or persons of credible Authority that will
