of_o such_o oeconomy_n as_o of_o judgement_n be_v dispatch_v 4._o there_o be_v sufficient_a security_n in_o the_o midst_n of_o the_o conflagration_n for_o the_o body_n of_o saint_n whether_o rise_v

by_o consequence_n a_o restitution_n of_o all_o thing_n be_v in_o the_o very_a letter_n to_o be_v expect_v according_a to_o scripture_n now_o whatever_o may_v accord_o to_o scripture_n and_o without_o

even_o for_o so_o long_o as_o scripture_n give_v we_o any_o reason_n to_o extend_v it_o unto_o see_v there_o be_v no_o scripture_n inconsistency_n in_o the_o fundamental_a possibility_n and_o now_o there_o be_v such_o a_o foundation_n lay_v in_o that_o which_o be_v agree_v among_o all_o christian_n if_o there_o shall_v be_v any_o inducement_n from_o scripture_n to_o do_v it_o we_o may_v build_v upon_o this_o foundation_n 1._o that_o see_v christ_n shall_v appear_v from_o heaven_n with_o his_o saint_n in_o a_o kingdom_n of_o triumph_n and_o glory_n over_o his_o enemy_n and_o that_o there_o be_v no_o signification_n of_o the_o time_n of_o duration_n contradictory_n to_o that_o of_o a_o 1000_o year_n and_o at_o least_o one_o great_a signification_n it_o be_v a_o 1000_o year_n why_o may_v we_o not_o conclude_v the_o kingdom_n be_v a_o kingdom_n of_o a_o 1000_o year_n 2._o see_v there_o shall_v be_v a_o new_a heaven_n and_o a_o new_a earth_n that_o shall_v come_v forth_o as_o a_o

the_o resurrection_n equal_a to_o the_o angel_n inhabit_v the_o new_a heaven_n and_o the_o saint_n chan●ed_v who_o be_v so_o peculiar_o call_v twice_o the_o 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d the_o live_n

of_o the_o kingdom_n as_o at_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n shall_v not_o last_v to_o eternity_n and_o that_o christ_n and_o all_o his_o saint_n ascend_v up_o to_o god_n and_o that_o kingdom_n of_o

invest_v with_o during_o that_o judicatory_a kingdom_n see_v it_o be_v a_o kingdom_n of_o triumph_n and_o victory_n that_o be_v so_o deliver_v up_o and_o why_o shall_v it_o not_o be_v the_o kingdom_n of_o a_o 1000_o year_n see_v the_o name_n a_o kingdom_n though_o of_o a_o 1000_o year_n yet_o because_o it_o be_v but_o of_o a_o 1000_o year_n imply_v it_o shall_v end_v and_o as_o the_o apostle_n make_v plain_a in_o that_o it_o be_v a_o reign_n till_o all_o his_o enemy_n be_v put_v under_o his_o foot_n it_o be_v a_o kingdom_n of_o victory_n and_o triumph_n begin_v and_o end_v in_o put_v down_o enemy_n as_o judgement_n must_v needs_o do_v and_o then_o give_v up_o to_o god_n and_o thus_o there_o be_v a_o easy_a slide_n from_o the_o acknowledge_v and_o most_o general_a doctrine_n of_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n into_o what_o the_o scripture_n say_v of_o a_o kingdom_n or_o reign_v of_o christ_n for_o a_o 1000_o year_n for_o it_o be_v express_o say_v there_o be_v throne_n as_o of_o a_o

and_o so_o angel_n of_o the_o church_n intend_v the_o holy_a pastor_n or_o minister_n of_o each_o successional_a state_n of_o the_o church_n who_o be_v instruct_v in_o the_o main_a concernment_n of_o
