these_o thing_n to_o babe_n so_o at_o this_o feast_n will_v he_o say_v father_n i_o thank_v thou_o for_o my_o kingdom_n and_o that_o these_o be_v with_o i_o in_o it_o have_v be_v bring_v out_o of_o

how_o christ_n shall_v prepare_v for_o himself_o as_o well_o as_o for_o the_o people_n of_o the_o land_n a_o sin-offering_a and_o burnt-offering_a etc._n etc._n this_o do_v not_o intimate_v that_o

he_o be_v say_v to_o prepare_v for_o himself_o as_o well_o as_o for_o the_o people_n of_o the_o land_n christ_n prepare_v joy_n and_o gladness_n for_o himself_o when_o he_o prepare_v good_a for_o the_o saint_n thus_o much_o of_o the_o passeover_n we_o read_v also_o of_o the_o feast_n of_o seven_o day_n chap._n 45.25_o but_o nothing_o of_o fast_n this_o will_v be_v a_o time_n of_o joy_n and_o gladness_n and_o sorrow_n and_o sigh_v will_v fly_v away_o the_o bridegroom_n will_v be_v with_o the_o saint_n and_o therefore_o they_o shall_v not_o fast_o but_o as_o we_o read_v zech._n 8.19_o the_o

add_v something_o for_o the_o open_n of_o another_o scripture_n which_o have_v near_o affinity_n with_o this_o and_o that_o be_v matth._n 26.29_o i_o will_v not_o drink_v henceforth_o of_o this_o

80.8_o thou_o have_v bring_v a_o vine_n out_o of_o egypt_n thou_o prepare_v room_n for_o it_o and_o do_v cause_v it_o to_o take_v deep_a root_n and_o when_o the_o jew_n shall_v be_v call_v they_o shall_v be_v plant_v a_o noble_a vine_n god_n shall_v prepare_v room_n for_o it_o and_o its_o bough_n shall_v spread_v and_o be_v as_o the_o cedar_n of_o god_n the_o fox_n shall_v be_v take_v that_o

we_o see_v that_o christ_n be_v a_o vine_n and_o the_o church_n be_v a_o vine_n and_o this_o be_v a_o vine_n in_o a_o vine_n a_o vine_n plant_v in_o christ_n the_o true_a vine_n have_v its_o life_n

so_o also_o which_o they_o look_v for_o as_o the_o pass_v away_o of_o the_o world_n which_o now_o be_v and_o the_o create_v of_o the_o new_a heaven_n and_o the_o new_a earth_n 3._o saint_n in_o heaven_n do_v expect_v these_o thing_n saint_n on_o earth_n do_v long_o to_o see_v these_o thing_n of_o heaven_n and_o the_o saint_n in_o heaven_n do_v long_o to_o see_v the_o thing_n of_o the_o new_a heaven_n and_o the_o new_a earth_n for_o if_o it_o be_v not_o beneath_o christ_n to_o expect_v they_o than_o it_o be_v not_o beneath_o glorify_a saint_n to_o look_v for_o they_o now_o that_o glorify_a saint_n do_v know_v and_o expect_v these_o thing_n we_o may_v conclude_v thus_o we_o read_v luke_n 9.31_o that_o moses_n and_o elias_n be_v with_o christ_n on_o the_o holy_a mount_n they_o speak_v of_o his_o decease_n which_o he_o shall_v accomplish_v at_o jerusalem_n now_o if_o his_o decease_n be_v know_v by_o they_o before_o its_o accomplishment_n we_o may_v as_o well_o conceive_v that_o his_o victory_n over_o his_o enemy_n the_o new_a heaven_n and_o the_o new_a earth_n and_o his_o kingdom_n in_o they_o be_v make_v know_v unto_o they_o and_o expect_v by_o they_o and_o not_o only_o the_o thing_n but_o the_o time_n also_o when_o all_o shall_v be_v do_v my_o ground_n be_v this_o both_o their_o thing_n and_o the_o time_n be_v reveal_v in_o scripture_n as_o we_o see_v by_o the_o several_a number_n of_o year_n mention_v in_o daniel_n and_o the_o revelation_n now_o what_o be_v reveal_v in_o scripture_n concern_v christ_n the_o saint_n in_o heaven_n do_v know_v as_o in_o particular_a the_o thing_n concern_v the_o kingdom_n of_o christ_n and_o the_o time_n of_o its_o come_n which_o i_o conclude_v from_o 1_o cor._n 13.12_o now_o i_o know_v in_o part_n then_o shall_v i_o know_v as_o i_o be_o know_v that_o be_v i_o shall_v know_v that_o perfect_o then_o which_o now_o i_o know_v in_o part_n this_o be_v a_o evident_a truth_n the_o saint_n know_v that_o of_o divine_a mystery_n perfect_o in_o heaven_n which_o here_o from_o the_o scripture_n they_o know_v in_o part_n and_o so_o we_o may_v suppose_v that_o they_o know_v when_o the_o 1260_o day_n begin_v and_o when_o they_o will_v end_v thus_o we_o see_v how_o these_o thing_n be_v expect_v in_o heaven_n by_o christ_n by_o the_o angel_n by_o the_o saint_n and_o it_o be_v so_o these_o thing_n follow_v hence_o 1._o the_o thing_n which_o be_v to_o be_v do_v on_o earth_n be_v very_o great_a thing_n the_o subdue_a of_o all_o christ_n enemy_n will_v be_v a_o very_a glorious_a work_n for_o christ_n have_v a_o great_a earnest_a and_o constant_a expectation_n of_o it_o the_o new_a heaven_n and_o the_o new_a earth_n will_v be_v very_o glorious_a for_o they_o be_v the_o expectation_n of_o heaven_n isa_n 11.10_o it_o be_v say_v his_o rest_n shall_v be_v glorious_a and_o when_o shall_v this_o be_v verse_n 11._o when_o the_o lord_n shall_v set_v his_o hand_n the_o second_o time_n to_o recover_v the_o remnant_n of_o his_o people_n etc._n etc._n the_o first_o recovery_n be_v from_o babylon_n this_o second_o will_v be_v when_o the_o jew_n shall_v be_v call_v and_o when_o the_o outcast_n of_o israel_n and_o the_o disperse_v of_o judah_n shall_v be_v gather_v from_o the_o four_o corner_n of_o the_o earth_n 2._o the_o expectation_n of_o christ_n enemy_n on_o earth_n be_v but_o a_o vain_a thing_n for_o there_o be_v expectation_n in_o heaven_n quite_o contrary_a to_o these_o and_o which_o think_v we_o shall_v be_v perform_v sure_o the_o expectation_n of_o heaven_n babylon_n expect_v to_o continue_v in_o her_o pomp_n and_o power_n and_o look_n that_o zion_n shall_v be_v her_o footstool_n but_o christ_n expect_v till_o babylon_n be_v make_v his_o footstool_n i_o sit_v a_o queen_n say_v babylon_n but_o what_o say_v the_o lord_n to_o she_o come_v down_o and_o sit_v in_o the_o dust_n there_o shall_v be_v no_o more_o throne_n i_o be_o no_o
widow_n say_v babylon_n but_o thou_o shall_v know_v widowhood_n and_o loss_n of_o child_n say_v the_o lord_n i_o shall_v not_o see_v sorrow_n say_v babylon_n but_o what_o be_v the_o word_n of_o the_o lord_n concern_v she_o how_o much_o she_o have_v glorify_v herself_o and_o live_v delicious_o so_o much_o torment_n of_o sorrow_n give_v she_o rev._n 18.7_o 3._o if_o these_o thing_n be_v so_o much_o expect_v in_o heaven_n how_o much_o more_o shall_v they_o be_v expect_v on_o earth_n if_o where_o there_o be_v no_o sin_n nor_o sorrow_n but_o perfect_a holiness_n and_o happiness_n then_o sure_a the_o saint_n here_o in_o this_o present_a evil_a world_n have_v great_a reason_n to_o be_v much_o in_o the_o thought_n and_o expectation_n of_o these_o thing_n as_o therefore_o it_o be_v the_o duty_n of_o saint_n to_o look_v for_o these_o thing_n so_o let_v i_o give_v a_o few_o direction_n for_o the_o right_a performance_n of_o this_o duty_n 1._o expect_v the_o same_o thing_n which_o christ_n expect_v he_o expect_v till_o his_o enemy_n be_v make_v his_o footstool_n he_o expect_v the_o fall_n of_o babylon_n he_o expect_v to_o be_v reveal_v from_o heaven_n and_o to_o be_v glorify_v in_o his_o saint_n and_o admire_v in_o they_o that_o believe_v and_o these_o thing_n shall_v the_o saint_n on_o earth_n look_v for_o even_o the_o bless_a hope_n and_o glorious_a appear_v of_o the_o great_a god_n and_o our_o saviour_n jesus_n christ_n thus_o we_o be_v sure_a our_o expectation_n shall_v not_o perish_v because_o they_o be_v christ_n also_o but_o the_o expectation_n of_o his_o enemy_n shall_v perish_v and_o their_o hope_n shall_v be_v as_o the_o spider_n web._n 2._o expect_v because_o christ_n expect_v he_o know_v what_o he_o expect_v and_o have_v sufficient_a ground_n for_o his_o hope_n and_o have_v power_n to_o make_v good_a his_o own_o expectation_n now_o when_o the_o saint_n want_v some_o stay_n and_o support_v for_o their_o hope_n and_o their_o heart_n like_o moses_n his_o hand_n be_v heavy_a they_o shall_v look_v to_o christ_n hope_n and_o this_o will_v be_v to_o their_o heart_n as_o aaron_n and_o hur_z be_v to_o moses_n his_o hand_n they_o stay_v they_o up_o and_o so_o they_o be_v steady_a till_o the_o go_n down_o of_o the_o sun_n and_o till_o amalech_n and_o his_o people_n be_v discomfit_v by_o joshua_n with_o the_o edge_n of_o the_o sword_n 3_o expect_v as_o christ_n expect_v hope_n on_o earth_n shall_v bear_v the_o image_n of_o heavenly_a hope_n there_o be_v no_o fear_n no_o take_v think_v in_o heaven_n hope_v defer_v do_v not_o make_v any_o heart_n sick_a there_o but_o there_o be_v joy_n of_o hope_n as_o christ_n expect_v that_o his_o enemy_n be_v make_v his_o footstool_n so_o he_o laugh_v at_o their_o imagination_n and_o contrivance_n against_o he_o and_o have_v they_o all_o in_o derision_n such_o shall_v the_o saint_n hope_v be_v here_o and_o so_o they_o shall_v be_v able_a to_o say_v of_o babylon_n the_o man_n of_o sin_n and_o all_o that_o give_v up_o their_o power_n to_o he_o as_o isaiah_n do_v of_o sennacherib_n when_o he_o besiege_v jerusalem_n isa_n 32.22_o the_o virgin_n the_o daughter_n of_o zion_n have_v despise_v thou_o and_o laugh_v thou_o to_o scorn_v the_o daughter_n of_o jerusalem_n have_v shake_v her_o head_n at_o thou_o the_o power_n and_o threat_n of_o the_o romish_a beast_n with_o all_o that_o take_v part_n with_o he_o shall_v not_o shake_v the_o heart_n of_o the_o faithful_a witness_n but_o they_o shall_v shake_v their_o head_n at_o he_o and_o laugh_v he_o to_o scorn_v sure_o there_o be_v little_a cause_n to_o fear_v those_o who_o shall_v very_o short_o be_v christ_n footstool_n christ_n expect_v also_o with_o constancy_n and_o perseverance_n there_o be_v perseverance_n in_o the_o hope_n of_o heaven_n christ_n expect_v till_o his_o enemy_n be_v make_v his_o footstool_n christ_n hope_n be_v like_o himself_o the_o same_o yesterday_o to_o day_n and_o till_o all_o be_v accomplish_v which_o he_o hope_v for_o nothing_o on_o earth_n weaken_v the_o hope_n of_o heaven_n no_o change_n no_o scatter_n of_o the_o power_n of_o the_o holy_a people_n no_o death_n of_o the_o witness_n make_v any_o the_o least_o alteration_n in_o the_o hope_n of_o heaven_n now_o such_o shall_v the_o saint_n hope_v be_v on_o earth_n even_o the_o same_o in_o all_o change_n they_o shall_v hope_v when_o the_o beast_n kill_v the_o witness_n and_o those_o that_o dwell_v on_o the_o earth_n rejoice_v over_o their_o dead_a body_n as_o well_o as_o when_o the_o witness_n have_v power_n to_o shut_v heaven_n and_o to_o smite_v the_o earth_n with_o all_o plague_n as_o often_o as_o they_o will_v they_o shall_v hope_v not_o only_a when_o a_o deadly_a wound_n be_v give_v to_o the_o beast_n but_o when_o that_o deadly_a wound_n be_v heal_v and_o when_o babylon_n triumph_v and_o glori_v most_o then_o may_v zion_n hope_v the_o more_o and_o rejoice_v most_o of_o all_o in_o her_o hope_n for_o when_o babylon_n say_v i_o sit_v a_o queen_n be_o no_o widow_n and_o shall_v not_o see_v sorrow_n than_o her_o plague_n shall_v come_v in_o one_o day_n rev._n 18.8_o that_o be_v a_o very_a short_a time_n after_o this_o her_o vain_a triumph_n for_o when_o have_v be_v under_o great_a fear_n and_o these_o pass_v away_o she_o say_v the_o bitterness_n of_o death_n be_v past_a and_o come_v forth_o delicate_o like_o agag_n then_o if_o the_o saul_n that_o shall_v do_v it_o will_v not_o some_o samuel_n will_v be_v find_v that_o shall_v hew_v that_o great_a whore_n in_o piece_n and_o second_o when_o her_o plague_n come_v quick_a dispatch_n will_v be_v make_v with_o she_o even_o in_o a_o day_n as_o it_o be_v yea_o in_o one_o hour_n so_o great_a riches_n and_o glory_n will_v come_v to_o nought_o thus_o we_o see_v what_o the_o expectation_n of_o heaven_n be_v which_o do_v call_v for_o such_o hope_n on_o earth_n as_o that_o which_o peter_n exhort_v 1._o pet._n 1.3_o be_v sober_a and_o hope_v to_o the_o end_n for_o the_o grace_n that_o be_v to_o be_v bring_v unto_o you_o at_o the_o revelation_n of_o jesus_n christ_n and_o thus_o we_o see_v it_o be_v the_o saint_n duty_n to_o look_v for_o these_o thing_n and_o how_o they_o shall_v do_v it_o q._n but_o here_o it_o may_v be_v ask_v as_o the_o disciple_n do_v of_o christ_n when_o shall_v these_o thing_n be_v see_v we_o be_v to_o look_v for_o they_o we_o will_v glad_o know_v when_o we_o may_v expect_v they_o at_o least_o when_o the_o time_n be_v near_o a._n for_o answer_n to_o this_o it_o may_v be_v say_v as_o elijah_n do_v to_o elisha_n thou_o have_v ask_v a_o hard_a thing_n it_o be_v indeed_o a_o hard_a thing_n to_o tell_v when_o the_o time_n will_v be_v yet_o certain_a it_o be_v that_o the_o time_n be_v reveal_v in_o scripture_n when_o the_o jew_n
