Now is it known, that salvation, and power, and glory belongeth to our God. He hath raised his Christ, and hath established his kingdom, the kings and nations of the world shall walk in his light, and his light shall not be put out, and his kingdom shall have no end. Now is that new Jerusalem, the glorious City of our God revealed from on high: now hath God made the Heavens new ⟨image 113⟩and a new earth, and hath fixed his Tabernacle and dwelling place among men. The fullness of time is come, the sound of the Apostles is gone through all the earth: the Sun of righteousness hath appeared: he is the light and comfort of the whole world. This is the gracious year of mercy, this is the day which the Lord hath made. Now is the mercy of the Lord showed more and more towards us, and his trueth endureth for ever. When Balaam the false Prophet, behold the glory of this time, he brake out and said, Who shall live when GOD doeth 1this? Who shall live, and see, and enjoy these things?
