glorious_a thing_n speak_v of_o the_o reign_n of_o the_o church_n but_o there_o have_v never_o be_v such_o glorious_a time_n since_o those_o prophecy_n and_o therefore_o these_o we_o be_v to_o expect_v to_o be_v fulfil_v that_o place_n of_o ezekiel_n of_o the_o dry_a bone_n receive_v flesh_n and_o life_n be_v apparent_a to_o be_v the_o jew_n come_v and_o god_n join_v two_o stick_n together_o make_v judah_n and_o ephraim_n to_o be_v one_o and_o therefore_o glorious_a thing_n be_v to_o be_v expect_v immediate_o after_o the_o fail_n of_o antichrist_n and_o if_o you_o may_v speak_v of_o the_o fall_n of_o antichrist_n as_o do_v you_o may_v speak_v of_o those_o promise_n as_o do_v so_o in_o the_o 21.22_o revel._n there_o be_v a_o description_n of_o the_o glorious_a estate_n of_o the_o church_n which_o ordinary_o be_v apply_v to_o the_o glory_n of_o heaven_n but_o there_o be_v a_o mistake_n in_o apply_v these_o thing_n to_o the_o glory_n that_o be_v in_o heaven_n and_o not_o to_o think_v of_o the_o glory_n that_o shall_v appear_v on_o earth_n before_o it_o be_v say_v that_o john_n see_v the_o new_a jerusalem_n come_v down_o from_o heaven_n if_o it_o have_v be_v the_o glory_n of_o heaven_n more_o like_o heaven_n shall_v have_v be_v open_v and_o he_o raise_v up_o to_o it_o again_o john_n here_o say_v that_o the_o foundation_n of_o the_o wall_n have_v twelve_o stone_n and_o in_o they_o the_o name_n of_o the_o twelve_o apostle_n that_o the_o foundation_n of_o heaven_n shall_v have_v the_o name_n of_o the_o twelve_o apostle_n be_v not_o like_o for_o abraham_n isaac_n and_o jacob_n the_o patriarch_n and_o prophet_n shall_v be_v there_o as_o well_o as_o the_o apostle_n and_o why_o shall_v it_o not_o have_v the_o name_n of_o the_o patriarch_n and_o prophet_n as_o well_o as_o the_o apostle_n and_o if_o you_o read_v the_o revelation_n you_o shall_v find_v that_o the_o king_n and_o prince_n come_v to_o give_v in_o their_o glory_n to_o the_o church_n now_o that_o the_o king_n and_o prince_n shall_v come_v in_o to_o make_v heaven_n glorious_a there_o be_v no_o likelihood_n in_o that_o thus_o there_o be_v these_o prophecy_n to_o be_v fulfil_v and_o these_o promise_n to_o be_v accomplish_v and_o therefore_o a_o time_n for_o the_o lord_n god_n with_o the_o saint_n to_o reign_v glorious_o and_o why_o shall_v we_o think_v it_o much_o let_v we_o but_o consider_v the_o great_a design_n that_o god_n have_v in_o honour_v of_o his_o saint_n in_o the_o world_n and_o we_o have_v not_o cause_n to_o think_v much_o of_o such_o a_o truth_n as_o this_o for_o hereafter_o in_o heaven_n christ_n will_v be_v honour_v before_o his_o saint_n but_o how_o will_v ch●ist_n be_v honour_v before_o all_o the_o world_n you_o will_v say_v at_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n but_o only_o at_o that_o time_n so_o long_o as_o the_o wicked_a shall_v stand_v for_o their_o sentence_n do_v we_o think_v there_o shall_v be_v no_o further_a time_n for_o christ_n and_o his_o saint_n to_o be_v honour_v but_o just_a then_o god_n intend_v to_o honour_n christ_n and_o the_o saint_n before_o all_o the_o world_n christ_n have_v purchase_v a_o glorious_a condition_n by_o humble_v himself_o so_o low_o to_o the_o death_n of_o the_o cross_n and_o therefore_o be_v promise_v the_o heathen_a for_o his_o inheritance_n and_o the_o utmost_a part_n of_o the_o earth_n for_o his_o possession_n and_o this_o must_v be_v give_v in_o due_a time_n and_o god_n be_v please_v to_o raise_v the_o heart_n of_o his_o people_n to_o expect_v it_o and_o those_o that_o be_v most_o humble_a most_o godly_a most_o gracious_a most_o spiritual_a search_v into_o the_o scripture_n have_v their_o heart_n most_o raise_v in_o expectation_n of_o this_o and_o it_o be_v not_o like_o that_o that_o work_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o they_o shall_v be_v in_o vain_a but_o god_n be_v beginning_n to_o clear_v it_o up_o more_o and_o more_o god_n be_v beginning_n to_o stir_v in_o the_o world_n and_o to_o do_v great_a thing_n in_o the_o world_n the_o issue_n whereof_o i_o hope_v will_v come_v to_o that_o we_o speak_v of_o quest_n but_o what_o shall_v be_v the_o glorious_a condition_n of_o the_o church_n when_o the_o lord_n god_n omnipotent_a reign_v for_o which_o the_o saint_n shall_v sing_v this_o glorious_a hallelujah_o tell_v we_o something_o of_o this_o good_a land_n answ_n in_o
