man of contention to all the earth Ier. 15.10 c. First to Prelates then to Presbyters now to Independent Pastors and Teachers It is my mother the Church hath made me thus for my Fathers Spirit the promise of the Father in me doth teach me better things There are better things indeed that the Saints should wait for things above Law and Gospel-order if it were as it was Ier. 50.45 but is not things which neither Prophets nor Apostles attained to yet both did write of and wait for Rom. 8.21 the glory to be revealed in us the glorious libertie of the sons of God and of the sons of men also even of the whole Creation 2 Pet. 3.13 the new Heaven and new Earth the new Jerusalem 1 Ioh. 3.2 the appearance of the great God in us when we shall be like him and see him as he is see his face and his name on our foreheads Rev. 22.1 2 3 4 c. when there shall be no curse nor crying nor death but the tree of life in the midst of us the River of life cleer as Crystall proceeding out of the Throne of God and the Lamb that is in us Zach. 14.8 Job 20.17 Ioel 3.18 These are the living waters the Rivers and Brooks of butter and honey the Prophets speak of yea the mountains dropping down new wine and the hills flowing with milk is more then was in Gospel-times Acts 2. the new wine the Spirit which the Apostles were drunk with at first was but the first fruits but a taste of that which shall be more fully drawn forth in the last dayes Zach. 9.15 Rev. 19.6 when men shall drink and make a noise as through wine and be filled with bowls c. yea make a noise as of thunder being the voice of much people in heaven and of many Allelujahs Those who shall sing and speak really and indeed these gladtidings to men shall not want money nor meanes for City and Country and Kings too shall contribute their glory to them the City Merchant shall give them food and raiment Isai 23.18 and Country Farmers shall serve their wives and children to plow sow and reap for them Isai 61.4 5 6 and 9. verses yea the Lord God himself will be ready as a servant Isai 45.11 Isai 58.9 to wait on them at their command and at their call Here am I saith he to those who undoe the heavie burthens and let the oppressed goe free and break every yoke from mens states and spirits this the everlasting Gospel will doe Isai 58.6 7 8 9 12. verses compared This is also the Sabbath before spoken of which the Ministers there wish it were over not onely to cease from our own works but from speaking our own words Heb. 4.10 Isai 58.13 or from speaking words as the Hebrew reads v. 13. Heb. 22.19 The Law indeed was a voice of words and the preaching of the Gospel at first was in this far below its own light at least below that glory of the everlasting Gospel at last which shall not be in words or speakings Rev. 19.8 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 but in the righteous actings of men the righteousnesses of Saints Rev. 19.8 The Angel who is to preach the everlasting Gospel is no particular man or men as in the Gospel-Ministry at first but the Spirit it self even the glorious appearance of the great God in Men and in Magistrates first shall Minister that light and love and glory to bee revealed in us Thus the Angel flyes in the midst of heaven c. Rev. 14.6 the other Angel v. 7. is another appearance of God in men Revel 21.24 For as the Kings of the Earth bring their glory and honour to the New Jerusalem that of the New Jerusalem being the sum of the everlasting Gospel so these Kings of the earth who shall be are the ten Kings who burn the whores flesh with fire Rev. 17.16 The ten Kings are not a Kingly power for Monarchy will never burn Ministery the whores flesh but such a government of men who have received no Kingdome as yet but receive power as Kings one hour with the Beast Rev. 17.12 as the two Beasts are false Ministery under severall forms so the Beast here is the second Beast * The Beast and the false Prophet were taken c. The Beast is the first Beast the false Prophet is the second Beast who did Miracles called the false Prophet Rev. 19.20 who hath two hornes like a lambe this being the purest Ministerie and most like Christ though indeed of Antichrist doing and speaking as the Dragon and first Beast did Rev. 23.11 12. To this second Beast the ten Kings with one mind give their power and strength Rev. 13.14 Rev. 19.20 compared and make war with the Lamb oppose and persecute the high appearance of God in his suffering Saints who are said to be with him who also by suffering shall overcome at last both the Beast and ten Kings with him Rev 17.13 14. compared with Revel 12.11 The ten Kings being thus overcome by the Spirit of the Lord in his people and by the same Spirit appearing in themselves shall hate the whore with the Beast and shall burn her flesh with fire Rev. 17.16 But before this as I said they had given their power to the Beast the reason why they gave it is strange and should still all the murmurings of men For God put it in their hearts to fulfill his will and to agree and to give their Kingdom to the Beast untill the words of God shall be fulfilled Rev. 17.17 When the words of God are fulfilled then the woman that whorish spirit or dependance on Men and Ministers which reigns over the Kings of the earth the ten Kings shall burn with fire that is by the power and Spirit of the Lord God appearing in them as Fire These ten Kings then seem to me to be a State Government like ours who have no Kingdom as yet not yet setled though the Beast may make them believe they are Kings for an hour for that little time of the Beasts reign over them but the Kings can doe nothing they can doe no more nor longer then the Lord puts in their hearts as was said before therefore when the Word of God is fulfilled and his time accomplished The ten Kings though formerly ruled by the Beast and loving the whore yet now hate her make her desolate and naked eat her flesh and burn her with fire Rev. 17.16 17. How beloved were the Bishops or Prelates to most of the present powers in whom yet such a Spirit since appeared that hath burnt up all those and will them that follow Those Kings then who bring their glory and honour to the new Jerusalem are the ten Kings and these ten Kings are the Christian Magistrates it may be ours for as the Nations of them that are saved are joyned with them Rev. 21.24
