A85549	A true reformation and perfect restitution, argued by Silvanus and Hymeneus; where in the true Church of Christ is briefly discovered here in this life in her estate of regeneration, as also her persecution in the life to come, as it hath been foretold by all the holy prophets and Apostles, which have been since the world began. / By J.G. a friend to the truth and Church of God.	Graunt, John, of Bucklersbury.	1643 (1643)	Wing G1595; Thomason E55_10; ESTC R212817	46,091	47

King in this glorious Kingdom And lastly what are the subjects and inheritors thereof Hym. The names that the Scriptures give unto the eternall estate are very many and excellent and your method very good therefore I pray proceed Silv. The time of the Churches deliverance to the estate of perfection is at the end of this world when he that ascended shall descend as saith the Scripture whom the heavens must conteine and receive untill the restitution of all things forespoken by all the holy Prophets hath been since the world began which things therefore the world might not be ignorant of which are testified by so many witnesses for so saith the spirit every one that have spoke have spoke of these things but the cause of mens ignorance in this as in many other truths of God is in regard people do not labour with God to understand and know the Scriptures for although every one for the most part hath a Bible yet generally they are as ignorant of the intent and meaning of the Scriptures as he that never saw the written word of God at all but no more by way of digression And that the time of the Lords glorious Kingdom and the Churches deliverance shall be at the end of this world is clear by our Saviours own words in parable The harvest is the end of the world and the reapers are the Angels As therefore the tares are gathered and burnt in the fire so shall it be in the end of this world the sonne of man shall send forth his Angels and they shall gather out of his Kingdom all things that do offend and them which do i●iquity as also in that Scripture where the question is made by the servants to the house-holder whether the tares the envious man sowed amongst the good seed should be pluckt up the Master answers nay let them both grow together untill harvest and sheweth what shall be done then both with the wheate and with the tares saying at his glorious comming shall be gathered before him all nations and he shall sever the Sheep from the Goates c. Then the King shall say to them on his right hand comeye ●lessed inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the beginning of the wo●ld and to this agreeth the Angels words to Daniel Go thou thy ways Daniel at the end of the days shall the end be and thou shall stand up in t●y lot meaning thou shalt then be raised to shine as the brightnesse of the Fi●mament amongst them that have turned many to God even to shine as the Stars for ever and ever There is none in all the world but the Child of God the heires of salvation have the benefit of the Prophet Ieremies exhortation in these words Ier. 31. Refraine thy voice from weeping and thine eyes from teares for thy work shall be rewarded saith the Lord and they shall come againe from the Land of the Enemy there is the returne from captivity of the naturall Israel and there is hope in thy end saith the Lord that thy Children shall come againe to their own border there is the deliverance of the s●irituall Is●ael at their Resurrection as the Patriarks have exprest their hope as is more clearly proved in the next particular the place where the bride shall for ever enjoy her bridegroome the King of glory his gloriou● Kingdom which the holy Ghost calleth the earth in these wor●s Behold the righteous shall be recompensed in the earth And so saith our Lord Blessed are the meek for they shall inherit the earth Their inheritance is their recompence then and not before shall the earth be filled with the knowledge of God as the waters cover the Seas which must needs be understood of the new earth promised and to come such an earth as the Lord shall make when he will make all things new for the contrary is most true now here in this old cursed earth that ignorance fills this earth as the waters cover the Seas Hym. This is not understood in these days for I never heard these Scriptures so applied before Silv. To make it more plaine we will first cite the Testimonyes of the Prophets our Lords and his Apostles and then I will shew you how plainly and clearly the heires of the promise have particularly declared her hope and confidence in it Job had the true knowledge and comfort of it which ravisht him and made him thus to cry out as if he were out of himself Oh that my words were now written Oh that they were printed in a book that they were graven with an Iron Pen in a Rock for ever for I know that my Redeemer liveth and that he shall stand at the latter day upon the earth and though after my skin wormes destroy this body yet in my flesh I shall see God whom I shall see for my self and my eyes shall behold and not another In which he clearly expresses that the place of his blessednesse after the resurrection shall be in the earth where his Saviour shall stand that is shall rule and raigne for ever David a man after Gods own heart excells in this Faith and hope what man is he that feareth the Lord saith he him shall he teach in the way that he shall choose his soule shall lodge in goodnesse and his seed shall inherit the earth And againe Let all the earth feare the Lord let all the inhabitants of the world stand in aw of him for evill doers shall be cut off but those that waite upon the Lord they shall inherit the earth and though it be but a little while and the wicked shall not be saith he and his place shall not be found yet the meek shall inherit the earth and delight themselves in the aboundance of peace for such as be blessed of him shall inherit the earth and they that be cursed of him shall be cut off And so he singeth Psa. 48. Great is the Lord and greatly to be praised in the City of our God in the mountaine of his holinesse beautifull for situation the joy of the whole earth is mount Sion And also in another place The Heaven even the Heavens are the Lords but the earth hath he given to the Children of men So testifieth the Prophet Esay saying Thus saith the Lord that created the Heavens God himself that formed the earth and made it he hath established it he created it not in vaine he formed it to be inhabited I said not saith the Lord to the seed of Iacob seek you me in vaine I the Lord speak righteousnesse I declare things that are right And the same Prophet makes proclamation Behold saith he I create new Heavens and a new earth and the former shall not be remembred nor come into mind and as the new Heavens and new earth which I shall make shall remaine before me saith the Lord so shall your seed and your name remaine Which clearly shews the intent of the promise to the Patriarks and

and againe he saith he made not the Earth for nought but to be inhabited and he hath established it that it shal not be moved and in another place speaking of the generall restitution as Saint Paul doth he saith with righteousnesse shall he judge the poore and with the breath of his lipps shall he slay the wicked and then from man-kind goes on to other creatures and saith then shall the Wolfe dwell with the Lambe and the Leopard shall lye down with the Kid and the calf and the yong Lion and the Fatling and a little Child shall lead them and the Cow and the Beare shall feed their yong ones shall lye down together and the Lion shall eate straw like the Ox and the sucking Child shall play over the hole of the Aspe and the weaned Child shall put his hand on the Cockatrises den they shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountaine saith the Lord for the earth shall be full of the knowledg of the Lord as the waters cover the Sea in another place the same Prophet saith again that the Wolfe and the Lambe shall feed together and the Lion shall eate straw like the Bullock and dust shall be the Serpents meate and againe he saith seeke ye out of the book of the Lord and read no one of these shall faile none shall want her mate for my mouth it hath commanded and his spirit it hath gathered them and the beast of the field saith the Lord by the same Prophet shall honour me and againe Oh Sion break forth into singing and let all the trees in the field rejoyce and clap their hands for in stead of the thorne shall come up the Figg tree and in stead of the bryer shall come up the mirtle tree and it shall be unto the Lord for a name and for an everlasting signethat shal not be cut off and another of the Lords faithfull ones saith moreover even the woods and every sweet smelling tree shall over shadow Israel by the commandement of God for God shall lead Israel with joy with the light of his glory even with the mercy and righteousnesse that commeth from him Hym. That all Creatures shall be restored me thinks the Scriptures are plaine and evident for so that I cannot but acknowledge it is so yet many objections also appear to me some of the Scriptures you alleadge because such expressions are used which concern this present life as the Calf a Child and Straw as if there should be plowing and sowing and increase and multiplication of Creatures againe Silv. As you say the Scriptures in some particulars do seem so to speak both for fructification and sustentation for the last our Lord speaks as if there might be such a thing even as Adam had for his delight and pleasure to eate even in the time of his innocency in Paradice the fruit of all the trees in Eden and excepted none but the tree of knowledg of good and evill and the words of our Lord are these but I say unto you I will not drink hence forth of this fruit of the vine untill I drink it new with you in my Fathers Kingdom Note here this fruit of the vine as distinguished from that which shall be new when the Kingdom of God comes as Luke saith as also that our Lord speaks further these words I appoint unto you a Kingdom as my Father hath appointed unto me that you may eate and drink at my Table in my Kingdom and sit on Thrones judging the twelve Tribes of Israel and that there shall not be any more marrying or giving in marriage by which I understand there shall be no further increase but that man shall be as the Angels of God in Heaven in the resurrection secret things belong unto God and things revealed belong to us and our Children and seeing the Scriptures have revealed so much therefore break forth into joy sing together ye wast places of Ierusalem for the Lord hath comforted his people he hath redeemed Sion the Lord hath made bare his holy Arme in the eyes of all the nations and all the ends of the earth shall see the salvation of our God thy faithfulnesse Oh God is unto all generations thou hast established the earth and it abideth they continue this day according to thy ordinance for all are thy servants Who shall not feare thee O Lord and glorify thy name for thou only art holy for all nations shall come and worship before thee for thy Iudgements are made manifest FINIS
