constant_a reign_n of_o christ_n in_o and_o over_o the_o saint_n which_o be_v their_o rest_n and_o which_o indeed_o be_v the_o substance_n of_o the_o jewish_a typical_a sabbath_n as_o david_n say_v

upon_o the_o judgement_n seat_n or_o throne_n ever_o since_o adam_n delight_v in_o his_o own_o fruit_n or_o consent_v to_o the_o serpent_n and_o god_n have_v be_v judge_v the_o serpent_n and_o

which_o be_v without_o the_o city_n in_o bondage_n but_o now_o the_o anoint_v or_o the_o great_a dispensation_n of_o the_o love_n of_o god_n have_v reap_v the_o earth_n as_o well_o as_o the_o city_n

the_o word_n everlasting_a which_o i_o as_o well_o as_o you_o have_v take_v it_o to_o be_v a_o misery_n without_o end_n to_o the_o creature_n but_o i_o answer_v that_o in_o scripture_n phrase_n every_o dispensation_n of_o god_n be_v call_v a_o everlasting_a time_n as_o in_o the_o day_n of_o moses_n every_o service_n in_o the_o temple_n that_o aaron_n be_v to_o perform_v god_n say_v 29._o

the_o time_n of_o his_o dispensation_n while_o he_o be_v finish_v city_n work_n and_o judge_v and_o reward_v every_o man_n that_o be_v the_o serpent_n and_o the_o anoint_v according_a to_o their_o

second_o scruple_n be_v this_o shall_v a_o man_n be_v ever_o deliver_v out_o of_o hell_n out_o of_o hell_n say_v some_o there_o be_v no_o redemption_n i_o answer_v first_o that_o there_o be_v no_o scripture_n as_o say_v out_o of_o hell_n there_o be_v no_o redemption_n therefore_o the_o scruple_n be_v raise_v upon_o it_o without_o ground_n indeed_o the_o prophet_n speak_v how_o that_o the_o live_a praise_n god_n and_o the_o dead_a can_v have_v these_o word_n in_o prefer_v life_n before_o death_n the_o grave_n can_v praise_v thou_o death_n can_v 18._o celebrate_v thou_o they_o that_o go_v down_o into_o the_o pit_n can_v hope_v for_o thy_o truth_n but_o second_o to_o answer_v more_o direct_o let_v we_o consider_v what_o hell_n be_v and_o then_o whether_o any_o shall_v be_v deliver_v out_o that_o be_v there_o hell_n be_v call_v death_n or_o a_o condition_n below_o life_n and_o this_o be_v twofold_a either_o a_o death_n of_o purity_n far_o below_o the_o nature_n of_o god_n or_o a_o death_n of_o sorrow_n which_o be_v a_o condition_n far_o below_o the_o comfort_n and_o joy_n of_o god_n now_o every_o man_n and_o woman_n as_o they_o be_v branch_n of_o adam_n have_v no_o purity_n in_o they_o and_o therefore_o be_v in_o a_o hell_n far_o below_o the_o life_n and_o nature_n of_o god_n and_o likewise_o they_o be_v unavoidable_o subject_a to_o the_o sorrow_n of_o that_o death_n as_o a_o effect_n follow_v the_o cause_n therefore_o unavoidable_o subject_a to_o a_o condition_n far_o below_o the_o comfort_n and_o joy_n of_o god_n this_o be_v the_o condition_n of_o every_o man_n and_o woman_n and_o they_o have_v no_o power_n for_o to_o deliver_v themselves_o for_o god_n only_o be_v our_o redeemer_n and_o then_o it_o follow_v that_o a_o man_n may_v be_v in_o hell_n and_o yet_o may_v be_v deliver_v out_o for_o as_o in_o all_o this_o discourse_n past_a it_o appear_v that_o as_o we_o spring_v from_o adam_n we_o do_v all_o lie_v under_o the_o bondage_n and_o death_n and_o power_n of_o the_o serpent_n which_o be_v one_o part_n of_o hell_n and_o yet_o god_n deliver_v his_o elect_a from_o out_o of_o it_o and_o therefore_o it_o follow_v clear_a that_o if_o man_n be_v capable_a of_o so_o much_o mercy_n be_v god_n creature_n as_o to_o be_v deliver_v from_o sin_n and_o death_n which_o be_v one_o part_n of_o hell_n or_o of_o a_o condition_n below_o god_n they_o be_v capable_a to_o be_v deliver_v through_o the_o mercy_n of_o the_o same_o god_n from_o the_o sorrow_n and_o pain_n that_o follow_v sin_n both_o which_o be_v but_o the_o bondage_n of_o the_o serpent_n which_o god_n will_v deliver_v his_o creature_n from_o this_o twofold_a death_n be_v the_o serpent_n head_n which_o god_n will_v bruise_v a_o three_o scruple_n be_v concerning_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n some_o think_v it_o be_v but_o one_o single_a day_n of_o twenty_o four_o hour_n long_o nay_o some_o make_v it_o less_o but_o the_o length_n of_o the_o twinkle_n of_o a_o eye_n because_o the_o interpretation_n of_o scripture_n run_v thus_o that_o in_o the_o twinkle_n of_o a_o eye_n at_o the_o sound_n of_o the_o last_o trumpet_n the_o dead_a shall_v be_v raise_v up_o to_o judgement_n but_o to_o answer_v this_o phrase_n twinkle_v of_o a_o eye_n it_o only_o show_v that_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n be_v very_o short_a in_o comparison_n of_o the_o day_n by-past_a like_o that_o in_o rev._n 8._o 1._o and_o there_o be_v silence_n in_o heaven_n for_o the_o space_n of_o half_a a_o hour_n which_o be_v not_o a_o direct_a half_a hour_n according_a as_o man_n account_v but_o it_o declare_v a_o very_a short_a time_n therefore_o i_o conceive_v this_o be_v not_o a_o single_a day_n of_o 24._o hour_n but_o a_o long_a time_n while_o the_o judge_n sit_v upon_o the_o judgement_n seat_n judge_v the_o serpent_n so_o long_a time_n it_o be_v call_v a_o day_n of_o judgement_n because_o that_o be_v the_o work_n of_o this_o day_n or_o term_v of_o time_n or_o the_o full_a length_n
