and supports he had provided for them both present then and what is promised for the time to come in the Epistles to the seven Churches of Asia and all Sufferers after in order to these very times as in the large paper in our Prodr pag. 39 40 41. may be seen But the benefit of this said Divine Key in the last part is incomparably advantageous and comfortable in shewing from the beginning what Fonndations of such wonderful anciently revealed and promised mercies God hath so Divinely couched in them for all Generations before and in the 1000 years or New Jerusalem state together in the World wherein everlasting happiness will not onely be entered upon and secured to all Saints for none such shall be hurt by the second death but by that State they will upon many advantages be fitted more for Eternal happiness and more to glorifie God in the enjoyment of it for evermore Upon the abundant discovery then to be made of such wonderful wayes of Gods revealed formerly and then fully performed Grace in all branches thereof which the said Key leads Christs Servants to by Faith till the time come of the fruition of the same for the Spouse of Christ the Lambs Wife Rev. 21.9 In whatsoever times before of the Church they have lived they will then drink afresh and unspeakably more fully the Waters of consolation by formerly revealed or promised goodness in any measure or manner derived ro them in their several Ages in the World when they shall all together drink thereof as the new Wine prepared for Christs said Kingdom in that world to come First For those of the Spiritual Seed of Adam and Eve which it is probable knew little of any other Foundation of Faith that the old world had and it is to be hoped that though all Cains cursed Seed perished in the Flood at last when their wickedness was grown to the height yet that some of them by some special weyes of mercie manifest to them before might be saved by the Application of the vertue of Gods first published and declared grace in Christ the Seed of the Woman through whom good Abels offering was first accepted and that fundamental Revelation leads us to look foreminent ultimate and perfect deliverance from all Enemies in Christs said Kingdom and the enjoyment of all good reserved for the raised Saints in that state And for all such as lived after Noahs time when the said old World perished for their great provocations they had as we may say a new string to their Bow by Gods blessing of Shem for the present and for the future the Prediction of the mercy of Japhets posterity in the calls of the Gentiles afterwards more particularly made known as was shewed as another Conduit Pipe conveying also Gods Grace unto them Also such as had received yet more special mercy from the Covenant to Abraham and his spiritual Seed by that one Divine Seed Christ to come by that new conveyance of such Gods Grace to them had still thereby a stronger Title thereunto and also as Isaacs and Jacobs faithful Posterity as a new intayle of the said mercy afterwards from the renewed manifestation of Gods sure mercies to David in respect of his Kingdom which Christ shall as surely possess with his raised Saints in the thousand years amongst which it is probable will be found many that came in as Proselytes under all the said Dispensations of Grace till the time of the publick mercy of the Gentiles first came in after Christ was come in our Flesh according to all the former special Revelations and Confirmations of the same for about 4000 years before and according to all such several conveyances of Gods mercy to them in their several times they lived which in the 1000 years it is probable the Saints will largely know they will suitably glorifie the same Grace Faithfulness and Truth of God in the 1000 years and be filled with rejoycing therein in greater measure and manner than we can conceive when they shall rejoyce together as happy Members of the same mystical bodie whereof Christ is the Head and as the Lambs Wife at those Divine Nuptials then to be celebrated Rev. 19.7 being the Inhabitants from that time of the New Jerusalem whose Maker and Builder is God Rev. 21.9 Heb. 11.10 and the wisdom and goodness of God will many ways appear glorious to all sorts of such Christs Subjects in his said Kingdom when not onely the raised Saints will so particularly know the revealed Foundations of their thenceforth perpetual happiness but the living Saints of all Nations that then shall be saved and will walk in the light of the said New Jerusalem shall be assuredly satisfied in the security of all their present and future enjoyments and in their measure add their halelujahs to the raised Saints with Angels and all other Creatures likewise in their Capacities Rev. 5.10 c. at that time of the happy restitution of all things and that ample revelation of all things in respect of Mysteries Creatures and Providences past when knowledg shall abound in the earth as the waters cover the Sea in all that is really good for either of them to know and whereby they may more be engaged to sing forth the praises of the Lamb c. as is set before us in the said glimps of that condition Rev. 5.10 c. which will be a School of Instruction for Angels and Saints more excellently to glorifie God the Father the Lamb that was slain and the Holy Spirit to all eternity and enlarge the happiness of both sorts of such gloried Creatures accordingly for ever and though this excellent Love-letter of Christ to his Spouse the Church in this his Divine Key seems to some to be close foulded up and in Charracters that none but his Spouse shall comfortably read yet in due time and manner he hath and doth teach his Beloved rightly to read in this world for her Faith and Consolation in some good measure and fitly open it more and more fully for her in the fruition of that blessed state and condition in that world to come of which much more from Scripture might he added 4. Vse of Inform. Hence may all Saints be informed what will be then their New Jerusalem work and employment when they shall be raised at this first Resurrection they will be much in praysing God the Father Son and Holy Ghost in and for the work or Creation Rev. 4 and especially be exercised in setting forth the Praise of Christ the Lamb many ways in a joynt and successive Quire of multitudes of Saints with Angels and all other Creatures then in their Capacity as Rev 5.1 where is I say a glymps of that glorious state represented us v. 10. to the end and they will be very helpful to all those Nations of them that are saved then which shall walk in the light of the New Jerusalem to instruct them in what shall be useful
