Principle X. Answered.
§ 1. We have better thoughts of the New Heaven and Earth than you have; we expect both to be of longer continuance than a Thousand years.
§ 2. That it is the Saints remaining that dwell on the New Earth a Thousand years before they are caught up, is your word, and not Gods, that I can find. God can replenish that New Earth as he did this, or how else he please.
