Wherein is contained some things necessary for the saints in this present generation to know ... By H.K. a servant of Jesus Christ.	Knollys, Hanserd, 1599?-1691.	1667 (1667)	Wing K704; ESTC R225382	40,331	114

years and an half are the time of the interval between the Death and the Resurrection of the two Witnesses 3. The three dayes or years and an half is the ending-time of the Witnesses 1260. dayes or years and of the Beasts 42. months or 1260. years For the clear demonstration of this third Particular let i● be considered First That the time when the Beast kills the Witnesses is towards the end of the 1260. dayes or years of their Prophesying chap. 11.7 When they are about to finish their Testimony and therefore the Witnesses are killed before the time of their 1260● dayes or years be ended to wit three dayes or years and an half before Secondly The killing of the Witnesses and the rejoycing over their dead bodies are th● last Acts of the Beast's Tyrannical Power and of the Whores Triumphing Joy and therefore must be near the ending-time of the Beast's 42. months and also of the 42. months wherein the Gentiles who are the Idolatrous worshippers of the Beast tread the holy City that is the Church of God under their feet That the killing of the Witnesses is the last Act of the Beast's tyrannical-Power appears plainly for as soon as the Witnesses rise Babylon begins to fall chap. 11.11 13. And they stood upon their feet and the same hour the tenth part of the City fell That the rejoycing over their dead Bodies is the last Act of the Whores triumphing-Joy appears plainly for as soon as her Joy and Rejoycing is over the day and hour of her Judgement came chap. 17.7 8 10. For she saith in her heart I sit as a Queen and am no Widow and shall see no sorrow therefore shall her Plagues come in one day c. The things that the Saints in this GENERATION ought to know touching the time of the Witnesses lying dead Are 1. That the time of the END or the ending-time of the Witnesses prophesying in Sackcloth of the Beast's tyrannical POWER of the holy City her being troden under foot of the Gentiles and of the Womans being in her Wilderness-condition is near at hand for the finishing Testimony is begun to wit the Gospel of the Kingdom of our LORD Jesus Christ which is a certain fore-runner of the ending-time of this WORLD Mat. 24.14 Rev. 11.7 And when they were about to finish this Testimony That is when they began to preach the Gospel or glad tydings of the Kingdom the Beast killed them which is the last Act of his tyrannical POWER 2. That although the ending-time be near yet the period thereof will not be certainly known until the last three years and an half be begun and well night expired Dan. 12.4 9. and Hab. 2.3 The Vision is yet for an appointed time at the END it shall speak and not lie though it tarry wait for it because it will surely come 3. That when the ending-time is come and begun before it be expired there shall such remarkable and wonderful things come to pass as are foretold in the Scriptures whereby the wise shall understand and certainly know that it is the time of the END viz. First Then will be such tribulation and such a time of trouble as never was before Dan. 12.1 Mat. 24.21 22. Secondly Then will be such an Apostacy among Professors Ministers Prophets and Churches as never was before 2 Tim. 3.1 5. and 2 Thes 2.3 Thirdly Then will begin a very glorious Reformation in the Worship of God by the Spirit of Life from God which Spirit of Life entring into the slain Witnesses will set them upon their feet that is to say will cause them again to stand up for Christ and his Kingdom and against Antichrist and his Kingdom And then will the Temple of God that is to say the Church and Worship of God be opened in Heaven chap. 11.11 10.11 11.19 Which 〈◊〉 the times of the restitution of all things which God hath spoken by the Mouth of all his ●oly Prophets since the WORLD began Acts ● 21 Touching the last Particular viz. How be Witnesses shall be raised again and what ●re the effects thereof The Answer unto this Particular is My●ically held forth in the 11 12 13 and ●4 verses of this Chapter First As to the time After three dayes ●●d an half vers 11. by which we are to ●●derstand three years and an half as have before proved that is to say at or before the end of that time for as it was said of our LOKD and Saviour Mark 8 3● After three days he should rise again which he did on the third day 1 Cor. 15.3 4. S● it is likewise said of his Witnesses after three dayes and an half the Spirit of Life from God entred into them and they stood upon their feet according to what was foretold by one of the Lords Prophets Hos 6.2 After two dayes he will revive us in the thir● day he will raise us up and we shall live in h● sight The means of the Witnesses Resurrection is the Spirit of Life from the Lord which entred into them vers 11. viz. that Spirit Life Power Courage Zeal and Boldne●● which the two Witnesses formerly had received from God and had exercised in bearin● their Testimony for the Kingdom of Christ c. and against the Kingdom of Antichrist c. but had lost by falling from their f●● love and by falling in with the lest Apostcy which Spirit of Life from God is again given unto them And they stood upon their feet vers 1● that is to say The Witnesses were raised 〈◊〉 vived ●nd strengthened by the Spirit of Li● from God for as the loss and departure● that Spirit of Life and courage to bear the● Testimony with boldness was their death so the Spirit of Life from God entring into them and renewing their Courage reviveing their Zeal and increasing their Boldness in bearing their Testimony is their Resurrection and that which causeth them to stand upon their feet which effect of the Spirit of Life from God was typed out by the dry Bones of the House of Israel Ezek. 37.5 10 14. O my People I will put my Spirit in you and ye shall live The LORD knows his Servants his Witnesses are not able either to do much or to say much for Christ and his Kingdom c. nor against Antichrist and his Kingdom c. unless they be spirited thereunto and therefore when God had any eminent work or service to do he did not onely raise up Instruments to do it but spirited them accordingly Thus the Spirit of the LORD came upon Othniel Judg. 3.9 10. and upon Gideon Judg. 6.34 and upon Jephthah Judg. 11.29 and upon Sampson Judg. 14.6 19. and 15.14 and upon David 1 Sam. 16.13 And so it will do upon the Lords Witnesses Rev. 11.11 And great fear came upon them Enemies that saw them Secondly The effect of the Witnesses Resurrection or standing upon their feet either concerned themselves vers 12. or their Enemies vers 13.

Ecclesiastical Power the ten Kings or Kingdoms do exercise for the BEAST against CHRIST and his Saints chap. 17.13 14. and chap. 19.19 20 21. unto their own Destruction Now assoon as this Antichristian Beast with his ten Horns was risen out of the SEA to wit the troubles tumults confusions and divisions of the Roman-Empire when by the WARS of the Barbarians the Roman-Empire was dissipated into ten Kingdoms At which Time also this same Beast with his two Horns is said to Rise out of the EARTH that is to say out of the Apostacy of an earthly-minded CLERGY who departed from the FAITH as was afore Prophesied 1 Tim. 4.1 2 3. should come to pass in the latter Dayes I say from that Time the Roman-Monarchy and Political Government of the fourth Kingdom ceased though not to be a Kingdom and to have a Power a Throne and great Authority yet to be a lawfull POWER and an ORDINANCE of God And therefore ought not to be obeyed nor submitted unto by any of the Saints of God neither in any Civil or Ecclesiastical Commands for that is to WORSHIP the BEAST or his IMAGE Let the Saints consider 1. That those who shall Reign with Christ have not WORSHIPPED the Beast chap. 20.4.2 As it was dangerous to WORSHIP the Beast a little after his Rise chap. 8.7 13. so it will be damnable to WORSHIP the Beast a little before his fall chap. 14 8-12.3 Those that shall stand with the Lamb upon Mount Sion with his Fathers Name in their Fore-heads and learn to Sing that New SONG before the Throne chap. 14.1 3. are such Saints as have gotten the Victory over the Beast and over his Image c. chap. 15.2 3. So then I conclude from what hath been said upon Scripture-Grounds touching the Kingdoms of This WORLD becoming the Kingdom of ANTICHRIST That the Saints in this GENERATION ought not to Obey nor to submit themselves unto the Roman Antichristian-Politick and Ecclesiastick-POWER Rule Authority Dominion and Government of the BEAST nor of the ten Kings or Kingdoms who have given their POWER and Strength unto the Beast The second thing which I judge necessary for the Saints in this GENERATION to know is How the Kingdoms of this WORLD shall become the KINGDOM of CHRIST God shewed unto his Prophet Daniel in his VISIONS of the Night how the Kingdoms of the WORLD should become the KINGDOM of Christ Dan. 2.34.35 44 45. Dan. 7.13 14 18 22 26 27. Viz. First The Kingdoms of the WORLD shall be broken in pieces by a STONE cut out of the MOUNTAIN without hands Dan. 2.34 35 Which STONE is Christ Plal. 118.22 Matth 21.42 and 1 Pet. 2.4 6. and also the Churches of Saints his Jerusalem called a Burthensom Stone Zech. 12.3 The Kingdoms of this WORLD shall be broken in pieces first by falling upon the Stone viz. Christ and his People Luke 20.17 18. Whosoever shall fall upon that STONE shall be broken Zech. 12.3 In that DAY I will make Jerusalem a burthensom STONE All that burthen themselves with it shall be cut in pieces Secondly The Kingdoms of this WORLD shall be broken in pieces by the STONE to wit Christ and his Peoples falling upon them Matth. 21.44 But on whomsoever this STONE shall fall it will grinde them to Powder and Jer. 51 19 20-24 Thou art my Battle-AXE and Weapons of WAR for with thee will I break in pieces the Nations and with thee will I destroy Kingdoms The Mystery of the STONE smiting the Fourth Kingdom upon his FEET of Iron and Clay and breaking them in Pieces was expounded unto the Prophet Dan. 7.17 18. But the Saints of the Most High shall take the KINGDOM and possess the Kingdom for ever even for ever and ever Dan. 7.24 25 26. But the Judgement shall sit and they shall take away his Dominion to consume and to destroy it unto the End read Isa 60.12 Secondly The Kingdoms of this WORLD being broken in pieces by the STONE falling upon them The STONE will become a great MOUNTAIN and fill the Whole EARTH Dan. 2.35 that is to say Christ and his Saints shall have the DOMINION in all the EARTH Dan. 7.11 12 13 14. And I beheld till the BEAST was slain and his BODY destroyed c. As concerning the REST of the Beasts they had their DOMINION taken away c. Behold ONE like the SON of Man c. And there was given him DOMINION and Glory and a KINGDOM that all People Nations and Languages should serve him c. Also Dan. 7.26 27. But the Judgement shall sit and they shall take away his DOMINION c. And the KINGDOM and Dominion and the greatness of the Kingdom under the whole Heaven shall be given to the People of the Saints of the Most High c. As the WAY for the KINGDOM of Christ and his Saints to be set up is made by the Breaking in pieces the Kingdoms of this WORLD Isa 60.12 For the Nation and Kingdom that will not serve thee shall perish yea those Nations shall be utterly wasted So the Kingdom of Christ and his Saints shall be inlarged and established 1. By the Conversion of Sinners both Jews and Gentiles unto Christ Isa 60.3 5 8 10 11 14 15. and Isa 66.8 and Rom. 11.25 26 27. 2. By the Pouring out the SPIRIT upon all Flesh Joel 2.28 Isa 44.3 4 5. 3. By the UNION of all the Saints Zeph. 3.9 and Zech. 14.9 The LORD shall be KING over all the EARTH in that DAY there shall be ONE Lord and his Nome ONE And 4. By the RESTITUTION of all things Acts 3.20 21. and Isa 1.26 I will Restore thy Judges as at the first Isa 60.17 and Isa 49.6 It is a light thing that thou shouldest be my Servant to raise up the Tribes of Jacob and to RESTORE the preserved of Israel c. And then the Whole CREATION shall be delivered from the BONDAGE of Corruption and Restored into the Glorious LIBERTY of the Children of God Rom. 8.19 21 23. That which the Saints of God in this GENERATION are to know touching the KINGDOM of Christ are these things following Viz. 1. That the KINGDOM of our LORD Jesus is not of this WORLD Joh. 18.36 Nor is it of a Worldly Constitution but it is a spiritual and heavenly Kingdom 2 Tim. 4.18 and will be a glorious State Isa 60.1 2 15 19 21 22. of a NEW Heaven and of a NEW Earth wherein dwells Righteousness 2 Pet. 3.13 which is the State of the Holy City the NEW Jerusalem that cometh down from God out of Heaven Rev. 21.1 2. Then shall they call Jerusalem the THRONE of the LORD Jer. 3.13 17. which NEW Jerusalem God will make a PRAISE in the EARTH Isa 62.2 3 7. An eternal Excellency and the joy of many Generations Isa 60.14 15. 2. This KINGDOM of Christ is the THRONE of his Father David Isa 9.7 and Luke 1.32 33. which Throne Solomon his Son who was a Type of Christ sat

upon when he reigned over all the Kingdoms that God gave to him 1 Kings 4.21 Upon whose THRONE our LORD Jesus Christ shall sit and Reign over all the Kingdoms of the WORLD Who is the onely POTENTATE the KING of Kings and LORD of Lords 1 Tim. 6.14 who shall be KING of all the EARTH Zech. 9.14 with whom the Saints shall Reign on EARTH and shall Rule and Govern the Nations not by the Laws of Men but by the Laws of God Which are true Laws right Judgements and good Statutes Nehemiah 10.13 14. For Christ our LOKD and Judah his People is our Law-Giver Isa 33.22 and Psal 101.8 The Kingdom shall come to the Daughter of Jerusalem and the first DOMINION to the Daughter of Sion Mich. 4.7 8. And out of Sion shall go forth the Law Mich. 4.1 2 3-7 Thirdly This KINGDOM of our LORD will begin before the Kingdoms of this WORLD End Dan. 2.44 In the Dayes of these Kings to wit the ten Kings of the Fourth Monarchy and Kingdom of the Beast shall the God of Heaven set up a KINGDOM which is the Kingdom of Christ Dan. 7.13 14. Then will our LORD Jesus Christ take unto him his great POWER and Reign Rev. 11.15 17 18. At which the Nations will be angry and the Heathen will Rage The Kings of the EARTH will set themselves and the Rulers of this WORLD will take Counsel together against the LORD and against his Christ Yet God will set his KING upon his Holy HILL of Sion and will give him the Heathen for his Inheritance and the uttermost parts of the EARTH for his Possession Psal 2 1-8 And the LORD shall REIGN over them in MOUNT-Sion from henceforth even for ever Mich. 4.7 8. Fourthly Though the KINGDOM of Christ shall begin before the Kingdoms of this WORLD End And though all the Kingdoms of this WORLD shall become the KINGDOM of our LORD Jesus Christ Yet the great Glory and Perfection of Christs Kingdom shall be in the WORLD to COME Then shall ALL things be put in SUBJECTION under the Feet of Christ Hebr. 2.5 6 7 8 9. Which World to COME is contradistinguished from the WORLD that NOW IS Mat. 12.32 Called this WORLD in distinction from that WORLD Luke 20.34 35 36. The Apostle also speaketh of the DOMINION of this WORLD Eph. 1.21 and of the POWER of the WORLD to COME The WORLD to COME is not that eternal State of God's Kingdom of GLORY in Heaven but it is the glorious and spiritual State of the KINGDOM of Christ on EARTH Heb. 2.5 That same WORLD even THAT that is to COME to wit The inhabited WORLD to Come wherein the PEOPLE of God shall build Houses and inhabit them according to Gods Promise in that day when he will Create New Heavens and a new Earth Isa 65.17 18 19 20 21 25. and Amos 19.11 14. And shall build up the Tabernacle of David c. Fifthly The Dominion and Government of the KINGDOM of Christ on EARTH shall be given to the Saints Dan. 7.27 and be Managed by them according to the Laws of Christ and to that End the Saints who shall Reign with Christ on Earth shall be rarely Qualified and fitted for that Kingdom Work and Kingly Government for 1. They shall be all Righteous Isa 60.21 They shall do no Iniquity Zeph. 3.13 They shall be without Fault before the THRONE of God Rev. 14.5 2. The Saints shall be SPIRITED for Government Isa 28.5 6. Constituted Government Rev. 5.9 10. and strengthned for Governing Zech. 12.5 8. and Isa 45.24 25. 3dly and Lastly The Saints shall be cloathed with Humility so that they shall Cast down their Crowns at the Feet of Christ their KING Rev. 4.10 11. Exalting HIM alone ch 5.9 10. And they shal be Endued with Courage Clad with Zeal and Girded with Strength and Truth that they may binde Kings in Chains and Nobles in Fetters of IRON and Execute upon them the JUDGMENT written Luke 19.27 This HONOUR have all his SAINTS Psal 149.1 2 6 7 8 9. which was Prophesied of Jer. 51 19-24 Thou art my Battle-Axe and Weapon of WAR for with thee will I break in pieces the Nations and with thee will I destroy Kingdoms and with thee will I break in pieces Captains and RULERS c. Also Zech. 12.5 6. In that DAY will I make the GOVERNORS of Judah like a Hearth of Fire among the Wood and like a Torch of Fire in a Sheaf and they shall devour all the PEOPLE the Enemies of Christ round about Sixthly The Gospel of this KINGDOM of Christ shall be preached in all the WORLD for a WITNESS to all NATIONS Mat. 24.14 And therefore the Kingdom of Christ cannot be set up in any Nation until the GOSPEL of the Kingdom be first preached in that Nation And then that NATION Kingdom or PEOPLE which do believe the GOSPEL of the Kingdom preached unto them and are made WILLING in the DAY of God's POWER Psal 110.3 to Admit the Saints to RULE and GOVERN that Nation according to the LAWS of our LORD and KING Jesus shall become the Kingdom of Christ But that Nation Kingdom and People which will not receive the TESTIMONY of the Kingdom of Christ but reject the WITNESS of the Gospel and Kill the WITNESSES of Christ shall be utterly Wasted and Destroyed Isa 60.12 And our LORD Jesus Christ will put down all RULE all AUTHORITY and all POWER that are his Enemies and wil● not Submit unto his DOMINION 1 Cor. 15.24 25. and Luke 19.27 Seventhly WHEN this Kingdom of 〈◊〉 LORD is Established on EARTH wi●● POWER and great GLORY and all th●● Kingdoms of this WORLD are become the KINGDOM of Christ The Thousand Years of the Reign of Christ and his Saints being Expired and Ended Then Will Christ come again and all the Saints with HIM Zeph. 14.5 and 1 Thes 4.15 16 17 18. then will be the General RESURRECTION and the Last JUDGMENT 1 Cor. 15.22 23. and Rev. 20.4 12 13 14. Which being past Christ shall deliver up the Kingdom unto God the Father that GOD may be ALL in ALL 1 Cor. 15.24 25 28. FINIS
