the time of Christs raign Jehovah Shamma the Load is there The Prophet Hosea in Chap. 1. Vers 11. Then shall the Children of Israel and the Children of Judah be gathered together and shall appoint themselves one head and shall come up out of the land for great shall be the day of Jezreel which never yet was fulfilled but shall be in its time So again Chap. 3.5 Afterward shall the Children of Israel return and seek the Lord their God and David their King and shall fear the Lord and his goodness in the latter days which can have no adequate accomplishment but in Christs Kingdom To the like purpose the Prophet Joel Chap. 2. ult having in vers 31. shewed what a terrible destruction shall be when Christ shall make his foes his foot-stool and set up his Kingdom vers 32. he saith It shall come to pass that whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be delivered for in Mount Zion and in Jerusalem shall be deliverance as the Lord hath said and in the remnant whom the Lord shall call and Chap. 3.2 last Verses And Judah shall dwell for ever and Jerusalem from generation to generation for I will cleanse their blood that I have not cleansed for the Lord dwelleth in Zion The Prophet Amos also fully witnesseth to this Kingdom of Christ Chap. 9.11 12. In that day will I raise up the Tabernacle of David which was fallen and close up the breaches thereof and I will raise up the ruines and will build it as in the days of old and vers 12. That they may possess the remnant of Edom and all the Heathen that are called by my name saith the Lord that doth this and vers 14. I will bring again the captivity of my people of Israel and they shall build the waste Cities and inhabit them and they shall plant Vineyards and drink the wine thereof they shall also make gardens and eat the fruit of them and I will plant them upon their Land and they shall no more be pulled up out of their Land which I have given to them saith the Lord God Even Obadiah in his short Prophefie hath high expressions of the deliverance on Mount Sion vers 17. And there shall be holiness and the house of Jacob shall possess their possessions But more direct to our present purpose verse ult And Saviours shall come up to Mount Zion to judge the Mount of Esau and the Kingdom shall be the Lords Herein is likewise the Prophesie of Micab very evident Chap. 4.1 In the last days it shall come to pass which words the last days we may observe frequently to be used to this purpose and the like that the Mountain of the House of the Lord shall be established in the top of the Mountains and it shall be exalted above the hills and the people shall flow unto it and verse 2. Many Nations shall come and say let us go up to the Mountain of the Lord to the House of the God of Jacob and he will teach us of his ways and we will walk in his paths for the law shall go forth of Sion and the Word of the Lord from Jerusalem and verse 3. He shall judge among many people and rebuke strong Nations afar off c. and Chap. 5. when he had spoken of smiting the Judge of Israel with a rod on the cheek vers 2. he then shews that out of Beth-leem Ephratah shall go he that was to be ruler in Israel whose going forth have been from of old from everlasting and vers 4. He shall stand and feed in the strength of the Lord and in the Majesty of the name of the Lord his God and they shall abide for now shall be be great unto the ends of the earth Again when the Prophet Zephaniah Chap. 3. had foretold how Christ will destroy his enemies as seems probable at the Armageddon battel mentioned Rev. 16. and 19 〈…〉 former verse he then adds vers 9. For the will 〈…〉 the people of a pure language that they may all 〈…〉 the name of the Lord and serve him with one consent 〈…〉 vers 14. Sing O Daughter of Zion shout O Israel 〈…〉 Lord hath taken away thy judgement he hath cast 〈…〉 enemy the King of Israel even the Lord in the 〈…〉 thee thou shalt not see evil any more vers 17. The 〈…〉 God in the middest of thee is mighty he will save thee he will rejoyce over thee with joy we will rest in his love he will j●y over thee with singing c. and so forward to the end of the Chap. to the purpose which like expressions are much above all succeeding times save these our Saviour hath revealed in the time of the new Jerusalem c. In the next place amongst the Testimonies of the Prophets in the Old Testament proceed we to the Prophet Zechariah who is as clear herein as any of the former and being after the Captivity of Babylon can least be interpreted of that which was past Zach. 6.12 Thus speaketh the Lord of Hosts Behold the man whose name is the Branch and he shall grow up out of his place and he shall build the Temple of the Lord and he shall bear the glory and shall sit and rule on the Throne So that Zerubbabel to whom this was spoken was but a dim shade to this mighty Prince and he shall he a Priest upon the Throne and the counsel of peace shall be between them both So Chap. 8.8 I will bring them and they shall be in the middest of Jerusalem and they shall be my people and I will be their God in truth and righteousness Again Chap. 9.16 And the Lord their God shall save them in that day as the flock of his people for they shall be as the stones of a Crown lifted up as an ensign upon his land Vers 17.

And Zach. 12.7 The Lord also shall save the tents of Judah First that the glory of the house of David and the glory of the inhabitants of Jerusalem do not magnifie themselves against Judah Verse 8. in that day shall the Lord defend the inhabitants of Jerusalem and he that is feeble among them at that time shall be as David and the House of David shall he as God as the Angel of the Lord before them Lastly Consider the Testimony of the Prophet Malachi Chap. 3.2 3. But who may abide the day of his coming and who shall stand when he appeareth for he is like a refiners fire and fullers sope c. Upon which Text let the words of that judicious Gillespy be observed in his Sermon to the Lords Aug. 27. 1645. which happily hath not been taken notice of by many Pag. 3. After diverse things spoken to our purpose before he adds How ever the Scriptures teach us that the Lord Jesus will be revealed mightily and will make bare his holy arm as well in the confusion
pure Primitive times Now among the Prophets look first into that Evangelical Prophet Isaiah who is abundant to the purpose where we shall only take some few at present to prove that such a Kingdom of Christ is to come and refer the great things foretold by him and others concerning that Kingdom to be considered in another place First In the second of his Prophesie verse 2 3 4. It shall come to pass in the last days the mountain of the Lords house shall be established in the top of the mountains and shall be exalted above the hills and the nations shall flow unto it And many people shall say Come ye and ●st us go unto the mountain of the Lord unto the house of the God of Jacob and he will teach us of his ways and we will walk in his paths for out of Sion shall go the law and the word of God from Jerusalem And he shall judge among the Nations and shall rebuke many people c. So Isa 9.7 Of the encrease of his Grvernment and peace there shall be no end upon the Throne of David and upon his Kingdom to order it and to establish it with judgement and with justice from hence forth even for ever Again Isa 11.10 In that day there shall be a root of Jesse which shall stand as an ensign of the people to it shall the Gentiles seek and his rest shall be glorious as Heb. 4. And verse 11. It shall come to pas● that the Lord shall set his hand again the second time to recover the remnant of his people which shall be left from Assyria and from Egypt and from Pa●hros and from Cush and from Elam and from Shinar and from Hamath and from the Islands of the Sea and verse 12. He shall set up an ensign of the Nations and shall assemble the out-casts of Israel and gather together the dispersed of Judah from the four corners of the earth with much more to that purpose in that place before and after these words c. And very remarkable is that Prophesie Isa 24.23 Then the Moon shall be confounded and the Sun ashamed when the Lord of Hosts shall reign in mount Sion and in Jerusalem before his ancients gloriously So again Isa 59.20 And the redeemer shall come to Sion and unto them that turn from transgression in Jacob and very much to this purpose Cap. 60. but for this Kingdom more especially vers 14. The Sons also of them that afflicted thee shall come bending unto thee and all they that despised thee shall bow themselves down at the soles of thy feet and they shall call thee The City of the Lord The Zion of the holy one of Israel Verse 15. Whereas thou hast been forsaken and hated so that no man went through thee I will make thee an eternal joy of many generations Vers 16. They shall also suck the milk of the Gentiles and shalt suck the breasts of Kings and thou shalt know that I the Lord am thy Saviour and thy Redeemer the mighty one of Jacob and so forward to the end of the chapter where many glorious things are spoken of this City of God as likewise very leargely in the following chapter and likewise in many others both before and after wards which may be considered in there place The next is the Prophet Jeremiah who in chap. 3.17 tells us At that time Jerusalem shall be called the throne of the Lord and all the Nations shall be gathered to it to the name of the Lord to Jerusalem neither shall they walk any more after the imagination of their evil heart Another clear and vigorous Prophesie is set down Jer. 23.5 6. Behold the days saith the Lord that I will raise unto David a righteous Branch and a King shall rise and prosper and execute judgement and justice in the earth Verse 6. In his days Judah shall be saved and Israel shall dwell safely and this is the name whereby he shall be called The Lord our Righteousness And to the like purpose again Jer. 33.15 16. In those days and at that time will I cause the branch of Righteousness to grow up unto David and he shall execute judgement and righteousness in the land Verse 16. In those days shall Judah be saved and Jerusalem shall dwell safely and this is the name whereby he shall be called The Lord our righteousness and verse 17. Thus saith the Lord David shall never want a man to sit upon the Throne of the House of Israel and verse 21. If ye can break my Covenant of the day and my Covenant of the night and that there shall not be day and night in their season then may also my Covenant be broken with David my servant that he shall not have a Son to reign on his Throne and the like again repeated in the 25 and 26. verses The places are so clear and full I spare to speak any thing to apply them because they cannot justly and rationally be applied otherways and such as understand them onely spiritually say something but not all nor that which they principally drive at namely that special period of Christs reign upon earth whither the current of Such Scriptures lead and after all our Saviour himself abundantly in the Revelation instructs his people and all such as will not willfully shut their eyes against the light The Prophet Ezek. likewise speaks very clearly Chap. 24.23 24. And I set up one Shepherd over them and he shall feed them even my servant David he shall feed them and he shall be their Shepherd and vers 24. I the Lord will be their God and my servant David a Prince among them I the Lord have spoken it Again As evidently doth he speak of Christs reign Chap. 37. After that he had spoken of the joyning of the stick of Judah and Ephraim into one he saith vers 22. And I will make them one Nation in the land upon the Mountain of Israel and one King shall be the King to them all and they shall be no more two Nations neither shall they be divided into two Kingdoms any more at all and vers 24. David my servant shall be King over them and they shall have one Shepherd and they shall also walk in my judgements and observe my statutes and do them and vers 25. And they shall dwell in the land that I have given unto Jacob my servant wherein your Fathers have dwelt and they shall dwell therein they and their Children and their Childrens Children for ever and my servant David shall be their Prince for ever And in those nine last Chapters of Ezekiel which learned and judicious men conceive to be the Revelation of the Old Testament where the holy Prophet had high mysteries of the New Jerusalem imparted to him and amongst the rest there are observeable many things set forth concerning the Prince and what order of state belonged to him and in conclusion he saith The City shall be called at that day viz.
