hath receiued to God the Father and then GOD shall be all in all This Kingdome is sometimes termed the Church of the Liuing GOD 1. Cor. 14.28 1. Tim. 3.15 Heb. 12.23 Psal 15.1 Ezek 37.27 Reu. 21.3 ● Cor 14.28 Sometimes the House of God 1. Tim. 3.15 Sometimes the Citie of the Liuing God the New Ierusalem Hebr 12.23 Sometimes the Tabernacle of God Psalme 15.1 Eze 37.27 Reuel 21.3 Albeit neyther of these doe so fully and cleerely discouer this great Mysterie as this Title Kingdome Yet heerein God is to bee praised in that he vouchsafeth so to descend to our Capacitie as to vse all these that they which cannot conceyue it by one may vnderstand it by an other As those that knowe but a Tabernacle or Tent may thereby be holpen to the apprehension of it Those that are not acquainted with a Tent knowing a House may yet conceiue it Such as knowe Tents and Houses yea Cities may more fully see it And such as knowe a Kingdome may bee ledde as it were by the hand to the viewe of euery part thereof Thus God hath profered the viewe thereof to all To Kings discouering it by a Kingdome Dan. 2.44 To Citizens by the viewe of a Citie Psal 48.1.2 To Householders by comparing it to a House 1. Pet. 2.5 To Souldiers by vsing a borrowed word of a Tabernacle or Tent. Heb. 8.3 What shall I say He offereth the view thereof to Merchants Matth 13.44.46 To Husband-men Math. 13.24 Fishers Math 13.47 Women Matth. 13.33 Virgins Matth. 25.1 Seruants Matt. 25.14 To All Matth. 22.1 That so some of all sorts might receiue it And all bee they what they will that refuse might be voyd of all Excuse That now we may be yet more acquainted with it let vs consider of the Titles and the Partes thereof The Titles are most vsually foure The first is the Kingdome of GOD the second the Kingdome of Heauen the thirde the Sonne of Mans Kingdome the fourth the Kingdome of CHRIST The first doeth indifferently concerne the estate we do here enioy with that hereafter The estate heereafter where it is written Flesh and Blood cannot inherit the Kingdome of God neither doth corruption inherit incorruption 1. Corinth 15.50 1. Cor 15.50 The other three concerne the Church heere in this life and eyther of them may be vsed indifferently as may bee made manifest by comparing them together As where it is written That a Ritch-man can hardly enter into the Kingdome of Heauen Mat 19.23 Matt. 19.23 And in the next verse speaking of the same thing wee finde it thus It is easier for a Cammell to goe through the eye of a needle then for a Ritch-man to enter into the Kingdome of God Math. 19.24 Matt. 19.24 Where we find the Kingdom of Heauen or of God vsed indifferently So wee may also see of the rest As where it is thus written There be some standing heere which shall not taste of Death till they see the Sonne of Man comming in his Kingdom Matth. 16.28 Matt. 16.28 There it is termed the Sonne of mans Kingdome or more plainely the Kingdome of Christ. And speaking againe of the same thing in another place it is thus written There bee some standing heere which shall not taste of Death till they see the Kingdome of God Mar 9.1 Lu. 9.27 Mark 9.1 Luke 9.27 Thus these three may bee vsed indifferently one for another yea all the foure Titles Yea and the first doeth concerne moste the estate of the Church in this life and is so alwayes to be vnderstood where there is no manifest difference in the same Scripture Nowe the Title which doth most fully and cleerely set foorth this great mistery Ephe. 5.5 Re. 11.15 1. Pet. 1.11 and includeth all the rest in it is the last which is The Kingdom of Christ Ephes 5.5 Reuel 11.15 2. Pet. 1.11 Termed the Kingdome of God because CHRIST is GOD And the Kingdome of the Sonne of man because he also is MAN And the Kingdome of Heauen to shewe that hee receiued his gouernment frō Heauen But not so much desirous to shew the reasons of Titles as the truth of things I haue onely thus briefly touched these as some helpe to the vnderstanding of the Scriptures wherein these termes or Titles are often found Now of the things of which principally this Kingdome consisteth and these are seuen which shall bee touched also briefly And first 1. King As in other Kingdomes or Kingdomes of this World there are Kings from which they properly are termed Kingdomes So here is a glorious King and blessed Prince euen that Rod out of the stemme of Iesse and that Branch out of his rootes That man whose name is The Branch The Lord our Righteousnesse Christ Iesus As it is written Yet haue I set my King vpon my holy hill of Sion And in another place Reioyce greatly ô Daughter Sion shout ô Daughter Hierusalem behold thy King commeth vnto thee he is iust and hauing saluation lowly and riding vpon an Asse and vpon a Colt the Foale of an Asse Is 62.11 Zach. 9.9 Is 62.11 Zach. 9.9 Thus did Christ as wee read in the Gospell Mat. 21.7.8 Mar. 11.2 Io. 12.15 Mat. 21.7.8 Mar. 11.2 Io. 12.15 where they are saide to cry Hosanna to the Sonne of Dauid blessed is hee that commeth in the Name of the Lord. And Paul speaking expresly of Christ applieth that of the Prophet Isaiah to him thus There shall be a roote of Iesse and him that shall rise to raigne ouer the Gentiles in him shall the Gentiles trust Rom. 15.12 2. Scepter And thus you haue the King Secondly as in other Kingdomes there are Scepters to which Subiects must stoupe and to which such as stoupe not are yet Rebels So heere is a Scepter in the hand of Christ by which men are knowne that yeelde true Subiection And this Scepter is the righteousnes of Faith By this hee rules his Subiects as Paul confesseth where it is thus written I count all things but losse for the Excellencie of the Knowledge of Iesus Christ my Lord for whom I haue suffered the losse of all things and doe count them but dung that I might winne Christ and bee found in him not hauing mine owne Righteousnes which is of the Law but that which is through the Faith of Christ the Righteousnes which is of God by Faith That I might know him and the power of his Resurrection and the fellowshippe of his sufferings being made conformable to his death Phil. 3.8 9 10. Phil. 3.8 9.10 So it is written in the Psalme Thy Throne ô God is for euer the Scepter of thy Kingdome is a right Scepter Applyed by the same Spirit to Christ But vnto the Sonne he sayd Thy Throne ô God is for euer and euer the Scepter of Righteousnes is the Scepter of thy Kingdome And so you haue the Scepter Thirdly 3. Lawes in Kingdomes of this World there are
