the_o last_o part_n which_o be_v christ_n reign_v on_o earth_n and_o over_o the_o world_n there_o be_v several_a thing_n disputable_a herein_o as_o 1_o whether_o christ_n shall_v come_v and_o reign_v

without_o controversy_n concern_v this_o point_n and_o they_o be_v four_o 1_o that_o jesus_n christ_n have_v a_o right_a to_o all_o the_o kingdom_n of_o the_o world_n as_o it_o be_v say_v in_o the_o 1_o cor._n 10_o chapter_n the_o earth_n be_v the_o lord_n and_o the_o fullness_n thereof_o and_o in_o psal_n 72.8_o he_o shall_v have_v dominion_n from_o sea_n to_o sea_n etc._n etc._n one_o special_a place_n beside_o that_o i_o conceive_v be_v applicable_a to_o christ_n it_o be_v in_o the_o 21._o of_o ezekiel_n 27._o verse_n i_o will_v overturn_v overturn_v overturn_v it_o and_o it_o shall_v be_v no_o more_o until_o he_o come_v who_o right_a it_o be_v and_o i_o will_v give_v it_o he_o here_o be_v three_o overturning_n answerable_a to_o the_o three_o part_n of_o the_o city_n in_o the_o revelation_n and_o all_o these_o overturning_n be_v to_o bring_v christ_n the_o right_a heir_n to_o his_o possession_n 2_o the_o lord_n have_v power_n to_o dispose_v of_o the_o kingdom_n of_o the_o earth_n to_o whosoever_o he_o please_v as_o it_o be_v say_v in_o the_o 4_o of_o daniel_n the_o 17._o vers_fw-la that_o the_o most_o high_a be_v in_o the_o kingdom_n of_o man_n and_o he_o give_v it_o to_o whosoever_o he_o will_n so_o in_o the_o five_o of_o daniel_n 21._o and_o in_o psal_n 75.7_o god_n be_v the_o judge_n he_o put_v down_o one_o and_o set_v up_o another_o and_o who_o can_v or_o dare_v say_v to_o the_o lord_n what_o do_v thou_o 3_o jesus_n christ_n account_v no_o man_n so_o worthy_a and_o so_o fit_a to_o rule_v his_o kingdom_n under_o he_o as_o his_o saint_n therefore_o he_o make_v promise_n thereof_o to_o they_o and_o the_o kingdom_n and_o dominion_n and_o the_o greatness_n of_o the_o kingdom_n under_o the_o whole_a heaven_n 7.27_o dan._n 7.27_o shall_v be_v give_v

apostle_n though_o poor_a fisherman_n you_o shall_v sit_v upon_o twelve_o throne_n 2_o throne_n cor._n 6._o i_o 2_o judge_v the_o twelve_o tribe_n of_o israel_n you_o know_v among_o man_n if_o a_o man_n be_v exalt_v to_o honour_n office_n or_o place_n he_o will_v prefer_v his_o own_o friend_n and_o servant_n especial_o if_o they_o be_v fit_a man_n and_o can_v manage_v those_o place_n even_o so_o do_v christ_n who_o find_v place_n for_o his_o people_n and_o fit_v they_o for_o those_o place_n and_o indeed_o none_o be_v so_o fit_a to_o manage_v any_o work_n as_o the_o saint_n for_o they_o

it_o be_v true_a that_o the_o divine_a nature_n do_v not_o proper_o admit_v of_o degree_n yet_o nevertheless_o the_o divine_a nature_n of_o christ_n to_o speak_v with_o reverence_n be_v much_o veil_v
