A27581 An appeal most humble yet most earnestly by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and our gathering together unto him, even adjuring the consideration of the most contrary minded who love his appearing concerning the Scripture on due compare, speaking expresly, or word for word : of the thousand years state of the saints, the dead raised first, and of the living, the remaining chang'd in it : and of the wicked-dead-raised, the Gog Magog under it / by T.B. Beverley, Thomas. 1691 (1691) Wing B2121; ESTC R31270 16,373 16

If All Saints be Saints Dead in Christ Rising first or of the First Resurrection Or Saints Styled The Lrving The Remaining not Dying but Chang'd in the very Moment of that First Resurrection so putting off this Low State of Body but not immediately Caught up to Christ nor Immediately putting on the Incorruption and Immortality of the First Resurrection but Secured for it by this Change as being Partakers of the First Resurrection over Whom the Second Death shall have no power And if there be a Thousand Years between this Change at the Time of the Saints Rising first before the Time of these Living these Remaining Saints being Caught up All which Time the Saints of both Kinds Reign with Christ Then there Must be such a Thousand Years Kingdom of Christ But so all this is by plain Doctrinal and by the Prophetical Scripture of the Resurrection Compar'd Therefore there must be such a Kingdom Argum. 3. If Christ and the Saints of the First Resurrection are in the Palace of the New Heaven above as on Thrones and their Glory shining down on the New Earth below and the Saints the Living the Remaining Chang'd are in the Paradise of the New Earth below and walk in the Light of the New Jerusalem Above and so Each in this Thousand Years Reign with Christ and at the End the Saints below are Caught up Alike with the Saints Above Then there must be a Thousand Years Kingdom of Christ But so it is by the Compare of plain Doctrinal and of Prophetical Scripture in the Revelation Therefore such a Kingd must be Arg. 4. If Satan the Old Serpent bound must Lie a 1000 Years having his Head Broken by the Second Adam the Seed of the Woman and Bruised under the Feet of Saints shortly and then be Loosed for a Little space before he be Cast into the Lake which can never yet have been Then there must be a Kingdom of a Thousand Years to Christ and his Saints But so by plain Doctrinal Scripture and the Prophetical Scripture of the Revelation It must be Therefore there must be such a Kingdom of a Thousand Years Argum. 5. If the Dead Wicked Raised as at the same Time with the Saints of the First Resurrection and with the Saints chang'd and yet being Raised to Condemnation are neither counted Principals nor Partakers of the First Resurrection but the Dead still who with Death it self must be the Footstool of Christ's Feet Sitting on an Exalted Throne Above Them and as Ashes under the Soals of the Saints Feet for a Thousand Years before They are Finally after the 1000 Y. Destroyed and Cast into the Lake Then there must be such a Thousand Years Kingdom of Christ But so It must be by plain Doctrinal Scripture and by the Prophetical Scripture of the Revelation Compard Therefore such a Kingdom must be Argum 6.
