that_o it_o must_v and_o shall_v not_o christ_n then_o reign_v upon_o earth_n at_o that_o time_n the_o scripture_n say_v so_o the_o lord_n shall_v be_v king_n over_o all_o the_o earth_n 5._o the_o last_o argument_n which_o i_o shall_v now_o mention_v shall_v be_v take_v from_o 2_o thess_n 1.5_o where_o the_o apostle_n speak_v of_o the_o saint_n persecution_n and_o suffering_n comfort_v they_o with_o this_o it_o be_v a_o righteous_a thing_n with_o god_n to_o recompense_v tribulation_n to_o they_o that_o trouble_v you_o and_o to_o you_o who_o be_v trouble_v rest_n with_o we_o when_o the_o lord_n jesus_n shall_v be_v reveal_v from_o heaven_n in_o flame_a fire_n and_o with_o his_o mighty_a angel_n now_o this_o must_v be_v mean_v of_o his_o personal_a come_n in_o that_o his_o mighty_a angel_n shall_v come_v with_o he_o which_o argue_v a_o personal_a come_n as_o we_o see_v matth._n 25.31_o the_o son_n of_o man_n shall_v come_v in_o his_o glory_n and_o all_o the_o angel_n with_o he_o and_o when_o he_o shall_v thus_o come_v then_o and_o not_o before_o shall_v the_o church_n on_o earth_n so_o long_o persecute_v afflict_a and_o toss_v with_o tempest_n and_o not_o comfort_v have_v rest_n and_o freedom_n from_o persecution_n the_o church_n must_v have_v a_o peaceable_a and_o glorious_a estate_n upon_o earth_n but_o this_o will_v not_o be_v till_o the_o lord_n jesus_n shall_v be_v reveal_v from_o heaven_n with_o his_o mighty_a angel_n and_o that_o in_o flame_a fire_n to_o recompense_v tribulation_n to_o those_o that_o trouble_v the_o saint_n and_o to_o the_o trouble_a saint_n rest_n so_o this_o shall_v be_v at_o the_o revelation_n and_o appear_v of_o christ_n and_o observe_v far_o what_o the_o apostle_n say_v rest_v with_o we_o with_o we_o apostle_n and_o with_o the_o prophet_n that_o go_v before_o what_o do_v this_o hint_n but_o that_o then_o the_o apostle_n and_o prophet_n and_o all_o the_o dead_a saint_n shall_v be_v raise_v and_o come_v with_o christ_n and_o then_o the_o live_a saint_n the_o church_n so_o long_o under_o persecution_n and_o trouble_n in_o the_o world_n shall_v have_v rest_n with_o they_o and_o thus_o i_o have_v endeavour_v by_o scripture_n to_o clear_v this_o truth_n and_o little_a from_o scripture_n it_o be_v which_o i_o have_v urge_v against_o it_o but_o reason_n step_v in_o and_o declare_v its_o dissent_n from_o and_o dislike_v of_o it_o fancy_v some_o great_a absurdity_n that_o will_v attend_v this_o opinion_n and_o some_o difficulty_n which_o will_v press_v it_o shall_v heaven_n come_v down_o and_o be_v upon_o earth_n say_v reason_n but_o as_o the_o apostle_n say_v who_o be_v thou_o o_o man_n that_o reply_v against_o god_n so_o who_o be_v thou_o o_o man_n what_o be_v thy_o reason_n that_o it_o shall_v argue_v against_o god_n do_v not_o the_o scripture_n say_v that_o christ_n shall_v come_v from_o heaven_n and_o all_o the_o angel_n with_o he_o and_o the_o dead_a saint_n shall_v be_v raise_v and_o come_v with_o he_o if_o this_o be_v for_o heaven_n to_o come_v down_o and_o be_v upon_o earth_n then_o so_o it_o must_v be_v for_o thus_o much_o be_v agree_v upon_o on_o all_o hand_n all_o the_o

the_o work_n of_o the_o last_o judgement_n other_o do_v conceive_v this_o will_v take_v up_o long_a time_n and_o it_o may_v be_v well_o agree_v if_o christ_n and_o all_o the_o angel_n and_o saint_n may_v leave_v heaven_n and_o be_v here_o on_o earth_n one_o day_n why_o not_o as_o well_o many_o day_n and_o if_o day_n why_o not_o year_n and_o if_o year_n why_o not_o a_o thousand_o year_n as_o the_o scripture_n say_v certain_o reason_n have_v as_o much_o ground_n to_o argue_v against_o his_o come_n at_o all_o as_o against_o a_o long_a stay_n upon_o earth_n than_o one_o day_n when_o he_o

if_o he_o do_v come_v to_o suffer_v upon_o earth_n why_o may_v he_o not_o come_v to_o reign_v upon_o earth_n and_o it_o be_v to_o be_v observe_v when_o christ_n speak_v of_o his_o death_n peter_n be_v
