Emperor the Epoca whereof was about 365. or as Learned Bishop Vsher conceives 363. to which the said 1335. being added probably makes up the times of the great restauration of Jews and Israelites at Christs appearance when the Turk is destroyed Dan. 11.45 and Chap. 12.1 2. which is further explained by the 1700 years of Revelation-prophesie until that time viz. about 320 years under the six first Seals until Constantine the Great cast Satan from his Heaven to the earth by abandoning his Heathenish Idolatries of his Sun Moon and Stars worshipping his Jupiter Mars Mercury c. with the Pagan Worshippers and Promoters thereof unto which sueceeded the other Christian Emperors for their short space spoken of Rev. 17.10 viz. about 80 or 90 years till the Dragons flood about the Womans the true Churches entring into her wilderness condition and from thence under the four first Trumpets proceeding out of the seventh Seal when began the sealed Judgments of the Trumpets which carry on the ruine of the Roman Civil state for their Persecution of the Saints in the Primitive times which four first are conceived to take up about 200 years more wherein the barbarous Nations by degrees broke in many pieces the Western Roman Empire giving opportunity for the Crowning of the ten Horns turning the Provinces thereof into so many Kingdoms whose Power hath since been given to the Beast But for the 2 first woe Trumpets of the Locust Mahumetans first under the Saracens in the East from their beginning about An. Dom. 600. to the beginning of the Turkish Mahomitans in the Ottoman family about 1300 which was 700 more and the Turks day and hour and month and year since prevailing over the Easterm Empire which by computation are 396 years more altogether will make up the whole account of about 1700 years till the seventh Trumpet begin to sound when the Kingdoms of the world will become the Kingdoms of our God and of his Christ Rev. 11.15 And the same 1700 years of Revelation Prophesie may also be computed by the Table of the suffering times under the Dragon and the Beast as they were pointed out before from Rev. 11. to ver 13. viz. the regular Primitive times Chap. 11.1 contained about 320. when was the Battle betwixt Michael and the Dragon and their Angels Chap. 12. whereupon the Dragons flood was poured out but dried up by the earth at the womans entrance into her Wilderness-condition about 90 years when with her time times and half a time begins the Beast to trample under foot the holy City for his 42 months and also during the two witnesses time of 1260 days of years for all these 3 are contemporaries and end with the second Woe ver 14. when it is said the third Woe cometh quickly at the end of the last Gentile Monarchy the first of which Monarchies viz. the Caldean by Scripture is reckoned to continue 70 years the Mede or Persian computed in Chronologie about 230 years the Grecian about 280. until about 48 years before Christs birth saith Helvicus or according to our former Computations of them in our Parallel of the ruine of the Roman Empire in the Caldean 70 about 70 or 80 more in the Persian Monarchies to Daniels weeks which are 490 years more in all 640. to the end of the last week An. Dom. 5.38 years after Christs birth which last 38 years are to be deducted on our usual account in which Parallel consider well that conjecture of 1666. to the ruine of Antichrist from Christs ascension though as Bishop Vsher conceives we have lost therein four years c. See there also our four mystical numbers leading to the Jews deliverance Dan. 12.1 and the great Enemies ruine at the end of the 4 Monarchie all which have their periods about Ann. Dom. 1700. But as there were different conjectures 1. about eleven years or more as before said of the Jews deliverance from Babylon so should some like latitude be allowed to probable conjectures now Thus having set down a scantling of these times by which it may appear upon these and many other accounts that the times of the restitution of all things cannot be far off which should make all men be careful to prepare for them thereupon to be engaged the more to fight against their spiritual enemies the flesh the wold and the Devil and as Christ upon that account exhorts to exercise Christian watchfulness that their hearts be not overcharged with surfetting and drunkenness and cares of this life lest these times come upon them unawares Luke 21.34 35 36. and the rather because as he tells us they will come as a snare upon them that are in the whole earth See to this purpose the 9 Uses after the Tract on Rev. 22.20 Now as God created the world at first as the Apostle speaks by Jesus Christ the Spirit moving upon the face of the Waters Gen. 1.2 And as God was in Christ reconciling the world unto himself 2 Cor. 5.12 and also upon Christs Resurrection from the dead whereby he was declared to be the Son of God with Power according to the Spirit of holiness Rom. 1.4 hath committed all power to Jesus Christ and accordingly afterwards gave him the Book with seven Seals Rev. 5. to open and execute the contents thereof to the end of the world and last Judgment So at the times of this New State God creates this New World for and gives it to his Son as a boon or 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 for doing all his Wills as was said of David and to his spiritual Seed with him as joynt-heirs thereof which will also be their sure Mercies of David Esai 55.3 and therefore it is said at his coming in the Clouds Dan. 7.13 14. there was given to him viz. by the Father Dominion and Glory and a Kingdom that all Nations People and Languages should serve him and therefore he also saith John 17.24 that the Glory he hath therein his Father hath given him and upon this great account also he bids his little flock not fear for it is his Fathers pleasure to give them the Kingdom and in reference unto both will all things then be made new for as God hath appointed him heir of all things so then he shall actually possess them as also ver 7. he promiseth to his overcomers that they shall inherit all things and the Apostle teacheth 2 Tim. 2.12 that those that suffer with him shall reign with him So that New State and Kingdom then is first and chiefly given to Christ which comprehends all the rest and is then prepared for Christ and those he then brings with him as his Spouse or Bride the Lambs Wife as her dowry at that great solemnity of the 1000 years And this the Fathers New Creation as it is deciphered Esai 65. will be a greater work than the first as the making of the spiritual New Creature is 2 Cor. 5.17 because here is a great incapacity in the world
