space of seven thousand years being finished the same Souls are again sent into the World for a fresh Tryal of their Obedience But those whom the space of seven thousand years wherein they shall be punish'd in Hell Fire with the most grievous and tremendous Torments will not deter from Sin these certainly are so stupid and obdurate that not any even the longest Torments that words can express can deter from it nor hath that infiniteness of Ages wherein wicked Men are to be punish'd tho' preached up by many re●orm●d Men but rather led many into despair and hardened their Hearts against the Goodness and Mercy of God 16. Now every one making his Revolulution from the first to the twelfth comes three times into the World in a carnal Body in the space of one Millenium which is like one year Consider then whether this be not that which was figured under the Law when all were to appear thrice every year before the Lord at the Temple of Ierusalem which typified the temple of the Body neither doth this seem to want a Mystery that the Temple of Ierusalem stood about a thousand years before it was utterly and totally overturn'd and demolish'd Moreover also this is worthy our animadversion viz. that all Souls whatsoever that had lived in a Body of Flesh ought to have lived once in some hour between the hours Ten Eleven and Twelve including part of the ninth and Thirteenth in Case they had finished their twelve Revolutions from the beginning of the World 18. Therefore all Souls not yet perfect lived in the compass of one hour to wit in the interval of 333 years viz. from the year of the World 3996 to the year of the World 4329. 19. And therefore all that have perform'd their twelfth Revolution within the said hour or a● leastwise their eleventh tenth ninth or eighth ought to hear the Gospel because all Souls who were in their twelfth Revolution were not to return as yet but oth●rs that were to return had not su●●icient opportunity of hearing the Gospel sincerely preached by reason of Antichristian Darkness 20. Others also who were making but th●ir s●v●nth sixth and fifth Revolution ●rom ●he Death and Resurrection of Christ if so be within the said hour they have not heard the Gospel preach'd they must hear in their succeeding Revolutions before the beginning of the Millenium to wit within the year 1700 and 1777 ●rom the birth of Christ. 21. In Revel 20. It is said the rest of the Dead lived not again till the thousand y●●rs were finish'd this certainly is to be unders●ood of those Dead who had compleated their twelve Revolutions but those who had not as yet ●inished their twelve Revo●l●tions were to live again in the Mill●nium ●●t none who belonged to Bab●lon w●re to live again in the Mill●nium because they b●gan th●ir fi●●t Revolution at the year 1●●4 and ●here●ore ●inish ●heir twel●th R●●olu●ion at the year o● the Wo●ld 6740 The TABLE 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 000 I                   000 A Bull. 333 II 1                 333 A Man 6●6 III 2 1               666 A Lyon 1000 VI 3 2 1             1000 An Eagle A Bull. 1333 V 4 3 2 1           1333 A Man 1666 VI 5 4 3 2 1         1666 A Lyon 2000 VII 6 5 4 3 2 1       2●0● An Ea●le A Bull. 2333 VIII 7 6 5 4 3 2 1     2333 A Man 2●66 IX 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1   2666 A L●on 3●00 X 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2   3●00 An Eagle A Bull. 3●33 XI 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3   3333 A M●● 3●00 XI 11 10 9 8 7 6 5 4   ●6●6 A Lyo● ●●0 XIII 12 11 10 9 8 7 6 5   4000 An Eagle 4333 XIV   12 11 10 9 8 7 6 1 Seal 4333 33● 1 ● A Bul 40●6 XV     12 11 1● 9 8 ● 2 〈◊〉 ●6●6 6●6●● ● A Ma●● 5●● XVI       12 11 10 9 8 3 ●eal 5●00 999 ● 3 A Lyo●● 5333 xvii         12 11 10 9 4 Seal 5333 13●2 4 3 An Eag●●● 5666 xviii           12 11 1● 5 Seal 5666 1665 5 ● A Ma●● 6000 XIX             12 11 6 Seal 6000 1998 6 ● A Ly●●● 6333 XX               12   6333 Millen An Eagle ●666 ●XI                   66●6   ●●d what 's worth our serious Consideration 〈◊〉 that these very Men which shall be at ●●st destroyed in Spiritual Babylon were ●●e same Men who in a litteral Sence ●●ilt the outward Babylon 79. The foregoing Scheme exhibits to our view one great Wheel being the greaest of all then four other great Wheels ●●stly twelve little Wheels The great ●heels containing 1000 the little Wheels ●33 and the greatest of all 4000 years The Explanation of the Figure● 1. In this Figure the great outward ●ircle represents the greatest Revolution ●f Humane Souls 2. The other four great Circles signifie ●he same 4000 years so as that one of them ●akes 1000 years 3. And lastly the lesser Circles signifie ●●ch one only Revolution or Face of 333 ●●ars 4. The chief use of the figure is to ●●ew that there are but 12 Faces altho' ●●ch great one contains four less ones 80. The greatest Revolution of Souls ●omprehending 4000 years is fairly shadowed out to us under the type of the six days Creation For as the first days wo●k was finished in the fourth the work of the second day in the fifth the work of the third day in the sixth a●d finally all in the seventh so the Souls that begin their Revolutious in the first Millenium finish it in the fourth and so fulfill their Mystical year and are either made perfect in Goodness or have filled up their measure of Evil those which are perfect in Goodness shall be rais'd up to Life in the Body and after the Millenium is expir'd their Bodies shall be chang'd and spiritualiz'd and they shall ascend into Heaven but such who have fill'd up their Measure o● wickedness shall be rais'd up to live in a Body of Flesh that they may suffer God`● Judgment in the Conflagration of the World whose Resurrection is to Death and Condemnation Mor●over Souls that begin their Revolutions in the second Millenium compleat them in the fifth and finally those that begin their Revolutions in the third compleat them in the sixth Millenium And forasmuch as in the sixth day of the Worlds Cr●ation Man was created perfect in the Image of God therefore in the sixth Millenium all the Saints shall be raised up to live in the Body and be born in●o the
themselves above Kings and Emperors and the first papal Usurpation was observed in Benedict the ninth who attempted to depose the Emperor from his Imperial Seat and dispose of the Crown to whom he pleased about the Year of Christ's Nativity 1034 as Histories confirm and especially Lucas Osiander in Epitom Hist. Eccles. Which was afterwards more vigorously followed by Gregory the seventh alias Hildebrand about the Year 1073 An. 1073 and in succeeding Ages continued to this day Quest. 77. Doth not that number of 144000 whom Iohn saw upon Sion standing with the Lamb and Singing a new Song c. signifie the same described in the like number Chap 7. who shall be the first Fruits of the first Resurrection above cited When they shall be plainly distinguished from the four Beast●● and fo●r and twenty ●lders because they shall Sing a new Song before the Beasts and Elders and none was able to learn that Song except the 144000● and yet God will most certainly have other faithful Servants on Ea●th at that time also● tho' they cannot as yet learn the aforesaid Song which s●●ms to be some peculiar Property in those only that obtain the firs● Resurrection Quest. 78. Will not the time wh●r●i● the 144000 will appear be after the expiration of 42 Months or 1260 Years which are the Years of the ●irst Beas● And th● latter 666 years b●longing to the s●con● Beast will have the ●ame End and P●riod ending about th● Year of Christ's Nativity 1700 The Year 1700 in true Chronol●gy differs fr●m the common respect being ha● to true Chronology which many think differs some years ●rom the vulgar computation so as that the true is by some though● to preceed the vulgar by t●e space of two Years others think four years Quest. 79. About the time when t●e number of those that are Sealed 14400● shall appear will not an Angel fly throug● the midst of Heaven having the everlasting Gospel to preach to the Inhabitants o● th● Earth to every Nation People Tongue and Kindred And who is this Angel Is it not Jesus Christ Or some Angel having his Conmission And how shall this Angel preach the Gospel to all every where Shall he not do it by inspiring Good and Holy Men and stirring them up to go into other Nations whereby they shall declare and publish the Gospel of Christ over the whole Earth And so indeed there shall not be a Nation or People upon the whole Globe of the Earth to whom the Gospel shall not be both externally and internally preached and declared as Christ had foretold all the elect Children of God wheresoever dispersed shall be gather'd together and the rest shall be left without excuse And doth not this time belong to the Church of P●i●●delphia to whom the Lord had promised that he would open a door before her which no Man should shut And therefore shall not the Ears and Hearts of sundry in all Nations be effectually opened by Divine Power operating in the Ministers sent from God to believe and obey the holy Gospel whereby there shall be a great Conversion of many People of every Kindred Stock and Family unto Christ after this universal Publication of the Gospel And shall not also the Gift of Tongues and Miracles with divers other noble and excellent Gifts of the Divine Spirit once communicated to the Apostles be again restored to the Church which being restored shall be again produced when that time shall come Quest. 80. Shall not Babylon that great City fall suddenly after the P●omulgation of the Gospel in all Nations in the order and manner described by the Prophe● Iohn ch 14. where he first speaks of the 144000● s●anding with the Lamb upon Mount Sion Secondly of the general Publication of the Gospel to all Nation and thirdly and lastly of the Fall of Babylon Quest. 81. Is not the first Resurrection of all the Saints and that happy and glorious Sabbath which they shall enjoy upon Earth after the first Resurrection clearl● pointed out Chapter 1● Verse 1● Blessed are the Dead that die in the Lord from henceforth saith the Spirit that they rest from their Lab●urs and their Works follow them And why doth he say from henceforth but to intimate to us that excellent Sabbath of the Saints for altho' the Saints are perpetually blessed and do rest in Christ after Death yet is not some peculiar degree of Felicity intended in these words viz. That most noble and excellent Sabbath which the Saints shall enjoy in the Millennium Quest. 82. What signifies the reaping of the Earth and the gathering together of the Grapes of the Vineyards of the Earth Are not the fearful and terrible Judgments of God upon the unbelieving and disobedient to be understood by it after God shall have bountifully rewa●ded his faithf●l Servants Quest. 83. How are those Words to be understood Chap. 14.20 And the Wine-press was trodden without the City● and Blood came ●ut of the Wine-press even unto the H●rses Bridles● by the space of a th●usand and six hundred Furlongs Doth not this belong to the time of the Ba●●le of Armageddon under the seventh 〈◊〉 when Gog and Magog or the Ungodly 〈◊〉 ●ll ●orts shall joyn themselves in g●eat A●mi●● against God's People who follow the ●amb but at this time more especiall● against the Iews and Israelites now inhabiting their own Land Of which Bat●le see Ez●kiel ch 38 v. ●1 12. CHAP. XV. QU●st 84. To what Interval or space of time belongs the Vision of the seven * The seven Angels with their seven Phials belonging to the seventh Trumpe● Angels pouring out their seven Phials of Divine Wrath Do they not seem manifestly to belong to the time of the seventh Trumpet to wit from the Year of Christ's Resurrection 1740 to the Year 2000 For those Phials are said to contain the seven last Plagues and in them is the Divine Wrath fulfilled And therefore will they not belong to the seventh Trumpet which contains Horrible and Tremendous Plagues And finally before any of these Phials shall be poured fourth the Temple of God will be opened in Heaven and all such as have obtained Victory over the Beast and his Image and over the Mark and Number of his Name viz. after the expiration of 1666 years since the Death of Christ shall stand upon the Glassy Sea which is mixt with Fire Singing the Song of Moses and the Lamb and Prophesying of almost a general Conversion of the Nations And doth not this opening of the Temple belong to the beginning of the Interval of the Philadelphian Church And certainly if we well consider how great power the Antichristian Kingdom has had in the World to this very day it seems an Argument strong enough to conclude that no Phials have been as yet poured out Quest. 85. Who are those whom Iohn saw standing upon the Sea of Glass mingled with Fire having obtained Victory over the Beast and over his Image Mark and
