time_n you_o will_v understand_v what_o christ_n mean_v john_n 18_o when_o he_o say_v his_o kingdom_n be_v not_o of_o this_o world_n and_o indeed_o he_o himself_o tell_v we_o in_o the_o follow_a word_n but_o now_o be_v my_o kingdom_n not_o from_o hence_o as_o if_o christ_n shall_v say_v i_o be_o a_o king_n and_o shall_v have_v a_o kingdom_n but_o not_o now_o not_o in_o this_o world_n but_o in_o the_o world_n to_o come_v for_o we_o must_v know_v that_o there_o be_v more_o world_n than_o one_o there_o be_v the_o old_a world_n which_o be_v drown_v and_o there_o be_v this_o present_a evil_a world_n and_o as_o the_o old_a world_n be_v drown_v and_o the_o wicked_a in_o it_o be_v general_o though_o not_o universal_o destroy_v by_o water_n so_o will_v this_o present_a world_n and_o the_o wicked_a that_o be_v therein_o though_o not_o all_o be_v destroy_v by_o fire_n 2_o pet._n 3.7_o as_o hereafter_o we_o shall_v endeavour_v to_o show_v after_o which_o there_o will_v be_v a_o new_a heaven_n and_o a_o new_a earth_n wherein_o dwell_v righteousness_n a_o new_a face_n of_o thing_n a_o new_a world_n and_o this_o be_v call_v by_o the_o apostle_n heb._n 2.5_o the_o world_n to_o come_v when_o all_o thing_n must_v be_v put_v in_o subjection_n to_o christ_n ver_fw-la 8._o and_o this_o be_v the_o world_n in_o which_o will_v be_v or_o which_o be_v christ_n kingdom_n and_o now_o to_o speak_v a_o little_a to_o this_o point_n about_o the_o end_n of_o this_o world_n and_o the_o beginning_n of_o the_o world_n to_o come_v and_o see_v what_o the_o scripture_n speak_v to_o it_o in_o 2_o

a_o day_n of_o judgement_n and_o perdition_n of_o ungodly_a men._n and_o this_o can_v be_v mean_v of_o the_o ultimate_a judgement_n because_o after_o this_o there_o will_v not_o only_o be_v a_o new_a heaven_n but_o a_o new_a earth_n also_o wherein_o dwell_v righteousness_n that_o be_v righteous_a man_n and_o that_o they_o shall_v build_v house_n and_o plant_v vineyard_n and_o eat_v the_o fruit_n

and_o new_a earth_n be_v to_o remain_v chap._n 66.22_o but_o what_o then_o may_v we_o think_v will_v become_v of_o the_o old_a heaven_n and_o the_o old_a earth_n will_v they_o not_o still_o have_v a_o be_v for_o answer_v hereunto_o we_o must_v understand_v that_o the_o apostle_n in_o the_o forementioned_a chap_n do_v make_v a_o parallel_n between_o the_o destruction_n of_o the_o old_a world_n and_o the_o world_n that_o now_o be_v that_o as_o the_o old_a world_n be_v destroy_v by_o water_n so_o will_v this_o world_n be_v by_o fire_n proper_o so_o call_v as_o to_o that_o which_o be_v to_o be_v destroy_v for_o as_o in_o the_o old_a world_n there_o be_v not_o a_o annihilation_n of_o any_o thing_n nor_o be_v all_o man_n nor_o all_o the_o brute-creature_n destroy_v nor_o be_v the_o empyrean_a

in_o the_o air_n that_o will_v be_v the_o subject_a of_o this_o burn_a and_o it_o may_v be_v that_o which_o the_o apostle_n mean_v by_o element_n melt_v with_o fervent_a heat_n which_o distinguish_v
