not_o before_o possible_a for_o not_o one_o member_n of_o christ_n can_v then_o be_v want_v beside_o other_o reason_n so_o of_o both_o say_a come_n at_o first_o he_o bring_v his_o saint_n with_o he_o that_o sleep_v in_o jesus_n 1_o thes_n 3._o ult_n 1_o thes_n 4.14_o 15._o but_o then_o he_o speak_v there_o of_o his_o descend_v from_o heaven_n with_o a_o shout_n etc._n etc._n not_o out_o of_o

the_o two_o former_a faith_n he_o we_o that_o be_v alive_a and_o remain_v viz._n to_o the_o come_n of_o the_o lord_n to_o the_o last_o judgement_n so_o distinguish_v both_o the_o live_n and_o the_o

before_o in_o the_o 1000_o year_n and_o so_o again_o in_o the_o former_a text_n 1_o cor._n 15._o concern_v the_o live_a saint_n then_o say_v he_o we_o shall_v not_o all_o sleep_n viz._n by_o die_v before_o a_o natural_a death_n for_o some_o will_v be_v find_v alive_a at_o the_o last_o trump_n which_o he_o speak_v of_o but_o of_o such_o and_o the_o raise_a saint_n say_v he_o we_o shall_v all_o

then_o be_v raise_v incorruptible_a when_o both_o the_o other_o sort_n shall_v be_v change_v also_o in_o a_o moment_n v._o 51_o 52._o so_o agreeable_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n speak_v in_o all_o place_n to_o his_o own_o oracle_n and_o in_o the_o revelation_n christ_n give_v we_o the_o best_a explication_n of_o all_o such_o mystery_n for_o in_o the_o 1000_o year_n the_o raise_v saint_n and_o they_o save_v in_o the_o natural_a life_n will_v be_v of_o one_o communion_n all_o to_o be_v change_v and_o all_o say_v to_o live_v and_o remain_v till_o the_o the_o last_o trump_n but_o such_o as_o sleep_v or_o be_v dead_a then_o be_v in_o both_o place_n distinguish_v from_o both_o the_o other_o and_o in_o both_o text_n call_v the_o dead_a in_o one_o the_o dead_a in_o christ_n then_o to_o distinguish_v they_o from_o all_o the_o wicked_a then_o dead_a yet_o both_o say_v to_o be_v the_o rest_n of_o the_o dead_a that_o rise_v not_o till_o the_o 1000_o year_n be_v end_v ch_n 20.5_o now_o to_o prevent_v mistake_v the_o apostle_n resolve_v the_o thessalonian_o 2_o epist_n 2.2_o 3._o that_o the_o come_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v not_o at_o hand_n in_o those_o age_n for_o the_o great_a fall_v away_o and_o reveal_v the_o man_n of_o sin_n be_v to_o be_v first_o and_o christ_n will_v destroy_v he_o with_o the_o appearance_n of_o his_o presence_n etc._n etc._n which_o be_v not_o yet_o do_v but_o he_o be_v guide_v by_o the_o same_o spirit_n of_o truth_n in_o these_o text_n to_o speak_v according_a to_o these_o revelation_n discovery_n who_o also_o at_o his_o rapture_n into_o the_o three_o heaven_n hear_v unspeakable_a word_n of_o which_o these_o may_v be_v some_o and_o i_o believe_v it_o be_v not_o possible_a to_o resolve_v the_o riddle_n in_o they_o without_o christ_n revelation_n give_v for_o many_o such_o purpose_n and_o here_o be_v one_o come_v with_o all_o his_o saint_n which_o he_o bring_v with_o he_o this_o rev._n 20._o &_o 21._o show_n to_o be_v at_o the_o

live_v and_o remain_v to_o the_o come_n viz._n to_o the_o last_o judgement_n so_o three_o sort_n shall_v then_o be_v rapt_v or_o catch_v to_o meet_v christ_n that_o last_o time_n in_o the_o air_n yea_o and_o say_v he_o we_o shall_v ever_o be_v with_o the_o lord_n which_o it_o be_v evident_a will_v be_v after_o the_o end_n of_o the_o 1000_o year_n for_o when_o satan_n be_v loose_v they_o be_v

to_o speak_v the_o like_a difference_n of_o two_o sort_n of_o saint_n beside_o the_o dead_a saint_n then_o and_o both_o these_o text_n be_v clear_v by_o christ_n revelation_n that_o tell_v we_o of_o the_o spirit_n of_o just_a man_n come_v with_o he_o as_o the_o new_a jerusalem_n down_o from_o heaven_n after_o say_v to_o be_v the_o lamb_n wife_n and_o these_o live_v have_v then_o their_o

that_o live_v not_o till_o the_o 1000_o year_n be_v end_v ch_n 20.5_o that_o then_o be_v say_v to_o rise_v first_o viz._n at_o the_o last_o trump_n and_o rapture_n now_o if_o man_n will_v produce_v

of_o it_o not_o consider_v the_o drift_n of_o our_o saviour_n in_o this_o revelation_n nor_o the_o order_n of_o it_o beside_o all_o the_o incongruity_n of_o it_o to_o what_o have_v be_v say_v

at_o the_o general_a rapture_n yet_o will_v have_v then_o bless_v spiritual_a body_n suitable_a to_o such_o a_o middle_a state_n as_o christ_n body_n be_v in_o after_o he_o rise_v again_o till_o he_o
