A TREATISE OF The New Heavens and New Earth Proved to be Perpetual and Eternal in that Visible State of both in the Restitution after the destruction of the World by Fire Whereunto is added A true State of the Thousand years-time proving it to be before the second Coming of Christ As also the Succinct Order of things from Christs first Appearing in the Clouds unto the Eternal State after the Day of Judgment By T. M. a Lover of TRUTH Psal 119.162 I rejoyce at thy word as one that findeth great spoil Prov. 25.25 As cold waters to a thirsty Soul so is good news from a far country Isa 33.17 Thine eyes shall see the King in his beauty they shall behold the land that is very far off London Printed in the year 1680. A TREATISE OF THE New HEAVENS and EARTH THE main Subject of this Treatise is the Mystery of New Heavens and Earth as restored in the State of Eternal Glory As an Apology for the Impression I must say The Destruction of this Visible Heaven and Earth by Fire is a Truth I was bred up in from a Child from 2 Pet. 3. though I find divers question it Though it hath been pretended many others have wrote of this Subject I never yet saw one that Treated mainly or purposely or positively on it and but one that mentions it at all and that so by the by and as probable that he left it in doubt And moreover the same Book and Author is so erroneous in other points that I think it unsafe to commend any Reader to it Which Errors have been soundly answered by another with the harmonious assent of divers able Ministers Except about the Sonship of Christ wherein I humbly conceive they did not so understand him though the things they urged against him in it were also sound In a Word if this my Discovery of the New and Eternal State of the Earth as well as Heaven be a Truth 't is no light matter nor any Infirmities in me should make it to be despised But mend that in your own Search after it that you conceive desective in mine I shall be as glad of a further Revelation by another as I am of this Degree by my self As to the Second Subject of the Thousand Years I did not make it my Intention nor had I writ here of it Only I was forced to mention and make out the same as to the Time of it that I might distinguish it in the Scripture-Representations not to be confounded nor contemporary with the main subject Hereof For which cause also I was forced to present a Specimem of the Order of things from Christs First Appearing in the Clouds to the Eternal State which also leads to the Completion of my Design The New Heavens and Earth as to be Eternal Which may be comprized in this Position That after the Destruction of the Heavens and Earth that now are by fire and after the Day of Judgment there will be a glorious Renewed State of both which shall be the Inheritance of the Sons of God and the glorious Kingdom of the Lord Jesus Christ for ever and ever Arguments to evidence this I. We are taught to Pray Thy Kingdom come thy Will be done in Earth as it is in Heaven Mat. 6.10 This Prayer is to be performed in all Ages till the Kingdom come and the Will of God be done in Earth as it is now in Heaven And we must Petition nothing but according to the Will of God and therein he will hear us See 1 John 5.14 15. Now the Will of God shall be done in Earth as it is in Heaven in 2 Respects 1. In Heaven it is done infallibly Not the least failing Mat. 13.41 This proves that the Thousand years Reign doth not perfectly fulfil this for a seed of evil-Doers is left in the Kingdom then who after the 1000 years make head against the Camp of the Saints in the Attempt of Gog and Magog Rev. 20.8 9. Nor yet will the Saints be then perfectly free from Sin being before the bodies Resurrection as page 2. In Heaven the Will of God is done by all and only those that are perfect and glorified Psal 103.19 20 21. Hebr. 12.23 So shall it be also in the Resurrection and world to come Luke 20.35 36. John 1. last See Page 4. And consequently when the Will of God is thus done in Earth and the Doers of it thus glorified It follows that they shall remain upon the Earth That the Earth shall be made glorious as Heaven is And also abide for ever from the ensuing Arguments II. Argument Christ shall Reign on the Throne of his Father David for ever and for ever and ever Luke 1.32 33. Isa 9.7 Jer. 23.5 Hebr. 1.8 Rev. 11.15 To Explain this consider two things 1. His Reign now on the right hand of the Throne of the Majesty in the Heavens Hebr. 8.1 is on his Fathers Throne Rev. 3.21 which Kingdom he is to deliver up at the end to God again 1 Cor. 15 24-28 2. His Kingdom now in the Churches is indeed the budding of the Horn of David Psal 132.17 The New Creature is a kind of first fruits of his Creatures according to purpose ordain'd for this New Creation which as the Creature it self so also the Saints having the first fruits of the Spirit groan for Rom. 8.22 23.

Revel 21.1 5. the wicked being Judged and cast into the Lake Rev. 20. end Now whereas his Kingdom is said to be for ever and for ever and ever and everlasting ●● though those terms in the Old Testament phrase are temporal and but for a set time yet in the New Testament it respects Eternity 2 John 2.1 Thess 4.17 Revel 1.6 Matth. 19.29 So Luke 1.32.33 2 Pet. 1.11 c. Now the present Dispensation of his Kingdom as now upon his Fathers Throne in heaven Revel 3.21 being at last to be delivered up again to God 1 Cor. 15.24 and the Son himself be subject in that respect And yet his Kingdom must be everlasting Therefore it follows That it shall be in the New heavens and Earth Eternally as unto which he was born typically and according to the flesh King of the Jews Matt. 2.2 of the Seed of
