of_o glory_n in_o the_o hand_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o a_o royal_a diadem_n in_o the_o hand_n of_o their_o god_n isa._n 62.3_o and_o they_o shall_v call_v they_o the_o holy_a people_n the_o redeem_v

from_o these_o three_o reason_n as_o follow_v the_o first_o be_v from_o the_o vision_n that_o the_o lord_n show_v ezekiel_n in_o the_o time_n of_o israel_n captivity_n again_o for_o it_o be_v usual_a with_o the_o lord_n to_o follow_v his_o people_n with_o mercy_n so_o that_o in_o the_o valley_n of_o achor_n there_o may_v be_v a_o door_n of_o hope_n so_o the_o lord_n deal_v with_o john_n when_o

the_o lord_n bring_v ezekiel_n in_o a_o vision_n into_o the_o land_n of_o israel_n and_o set_v he_o upon_o a_o high_a mount_n show_v he_o the_o frame_n of_o a_o city_n in_o the_o which_o city_n also_o

from_o chap._n 41.1_o and_o vers._n 4._o from_o which_o we_o may_v see_v clear_o there_o be_v a_o temple_n and_o so_o as_o i_o say_v before_o so_o i_o say_v now_o read_v and_o consider_v well_o the_o three_o precedent_a chapter_n and_o you_o shall_v see_v that_o it_o be_v the_o last_o and_o general_a return_n out_o of_o captivity_n that_o there_o be_v prophesy_v of_o from_o the_o same_o account_n

scripture_n that_o the_o jew_n shall_v be_v convert_v by_o a_o gospel-preach_n although_o i_o know_v the_o two_o witness_n shall_v prophesy_v one_o thousand_o two_o hundred_o and_o sixty_o day_n now_o that_o these_o two_o witness_n shall_v preach_v gospel-ordinance_n or_o a_o crucify_a christ_n repentance_n and_o faith_n to_o the_o jew_n in_o such_o a_o manner_n and_o way_n as_o he_o be_v preach_v or_o be_v preach_v to_o the_o gentile_n that_o i_o much_o question_n for_o as_o much_o as_o i_o see_v not_o the_o scripture_n make_v good_a such_o a_o thing_n but_o in_o many_o place_n do_v cross_v such_o a_o opinion_n as_o to_o my_o understanding_n for_o the_o lord_n christ_n say_v they_o shall_v see_v he_o no_o more_o till_o they_o say_v bless_a be_v he_o that_o come_v in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n as_o for_o the_o gospel_n they_o be_v enemy_n for_o your_o sake_n but_o as_o touch_v election_n they_o be_v belove_v for_o the_o father_n sake_n for_o the_o gift_n and_o calling_n of_o god_n be_v without_o repentance_n so_o that_o when_o they_o see_v the_o lord_n come_v in_o the_o cloud_n even_o the_o great_a king_n that_o they_o look_v for_o than_o they_o shall_v know_v that_o it_o

they_o not_o have_v some_o to_o instruct_v they_o and_o to_o expound_v the_o prophecy_n or_o prophecy_n of_o they_o it_o be_v very_o like_o they_o may_v do_v ill_a enough_o especial_o because_o of_o that_o great_a appearance_n of_o the_o man_n of_o sin_n what_o by_o his_o great_a army_n and_o the_o false_a sign_n that_o shall_v be_v wrought_v by_o his_o false_a prophet_n that_o shall_v cause_v fire_n to_o come_v down_o from_o heaven_n in_o the_o sight_n of_o man_n to_o deceive_v they_o that_o dwell_v upon_o the_o earth_n so_o that_o their_o work_n will_v not_o be_v to_o preach_v ordinance_n

person_n or_o the_o first_o gog_n or_o the_o man_n of_o sin_n though_o he_o have_v several_a name_n yet_o be_v he_o but_o one_o person_n which_o be_v foretell_v by_o enoch_n the_o seven_o from_o

be_v to_o be_v a_o temple_n build_v as_o well_o as_o a_o city_n a_o second_o reason_n be_v because_o john_n in_o his_o revelation_n see_v a_o temple_n and_o be_v to_o measure_v it_o revel._n 11.1_o 2_o 3._o in_o these_o word_n and_o there_o be_v give_v to_o i_o a_o reed_n like_o unto_o a_o red_a and_o the_o angel_n that_o stand_v by_o say_a arise_v and_o go_v measure_v the_o temple_n of_o god_n

to_o measure_v now_o that_o this_o be_v a_o prophecy_n of_o the_o last_o time_n be_v clear_a from_o verse_n 18._o and_o as_o the_o text_n read_v it_o the_o court_n without_o leave_n out_o and_o

of_o if_o you_o shall_v ask_v i_o whether_o christ_n bring_v nothing_o for_o the_o son_n of_o man_n more_o than_o a_o resurrection_n i_o shall_v answer_v yes_o many_o thing_n he_o bring_v heavenly_a

but_o my_o time_n at_o present_a be_v precious_a arg._n 2._o if_o the_o sin_n against_o the_o first_o covenant_n make_v the_o sinner_n liable_a but_o to_o the_o first_o death_n than_o adam_n and_o all_o since_o in_o his_o loin_n be_v liable_a but_o to_o the_o first_o death_n but_o the_o sin_n against_o the_o first_o covenant_n make_v the_o sinner_n liable_a but_o to_o the_o first_o death_n ergo_fw-la adam_n and_o all_o his_o posterity_n stand_v guilty_a by_o that_o sin_n only_o of_o the_o first_o death_n to_o the_o proof_n of_o this_o argument_n i_o shall_v give_v you_o to_o

insomuch_o as_o they_o be_v all_o under_o he_o and_o whatsoever_o name_n he_o give_v they_o they_o shall_v be_v call_v by_o and_o also_o have_v he_o not_o sin_v he_o shall_v have_v enjoy_v that_o pure_a earthly_a paradisical_a enjoyment_n which_o be_v the_o glory_n of_o the_o first_o covenant_n from_o which_o glory_n he_o fall_v by_o transgression_n of_o that_o law_n or_o that_o original_a sin_n as_o you_o so_o call_v it_o first_o hell_n that_o he_o sin_v against_o no_o other_o covenant_n but_o that_o covenant_n because_o there_o be_v never_o no_o covenant_n make_v of_o a_o second_o life_n or_o a_o second_o glory_n not_o till_o after_o adam_n have_v sin_v and_o therefore_o can_v not_o sin_v against_o such_o a_o covenant_n it_o be_v not_o make_v nor_o he_o in_o a_o capacity_n to_o sin_n against_o any_o such_o thing_n so_o that_o sir_n take_v notice_n of_o this_o one_o thing_n by_o the_o way_n that_o as_o the_o grave_a and_o the_o misery_n tend_v thereunto_o as_o sickness_n weakness_n and_o such_o like_a infirmity_n be_v that_o which_o a_o creature_n receive_v as_o punishment_n for_o the_o sin_n against_o that_o pure_a earthly_a paradisical_a covenant_n so_o the_o gulf_n of_o hell_n covenant_n with_o eternal_a misery_n be_v the_o punishment_n of_o sin_n commit_v against_o that_o second_o covenant_n the_o which_o be_v a_o covenant_n of_o heavenly_a paradisical_a

thereunto_o do_v far_o surmount_v the_o enjoyment_n of_o the_o first_o with_o the_o punishment_n annex_v thereunto_o now_o to_o prove_v my_o minor_a proposition_n by_o a_o plain_a rext_n as_o gen._n 3.19_o in_o the_o sweat_n of_o thy_o face_n shall_v thou_o eat_v bread_n until_o thou_o return_v to_o the_o ground_n for_o out_o of_o it_o waste_v thou_o take_v dust_n thou_o be_v and_o unto_o dust_n

it_o shall_v bear_v thorn_n and_o thistle_n so_o if_o you_o take_v good_a notice_n what_o the_o lord_n denounce_v as_o punishment_n to_o he_o and_o his_o seed_n which_o be_v only_o earthly_a and_o inflict_v only_o upon_o the_o outward_a man_n no_o whit_n eternal_a neither_o inflict_v upon_o the_o inward_a man_n and_o thus_o i_o have_v prove_v my_o minor_a proposition_n that_o adam_n sin_n be_v but_o against_o the_o first_o covenant_n which_o sin_v lose_v but_o the_o enjoyment_n of_o the_o first_o life_n with_o that_o earthly_a paradisical_a glory_n arg._n 3._o earthly_a if_o adam_n in_o
