6. The Church is the place of the glorious reign of §6the Lord of Hosts, Isa. 24. 23. The Moon shall be confounded, and the Sun ashamed, when the Lord of hosts shall reign in Mount Zion and in Jerusalem before his Elders gloriously. God hath yet a further and more glorious Kingdom to be set up in his Church then ever hath been, at which all the glory of the world shall be darkened by reason of the brightness of this glory, & it is the Lord of Hosts that shall thus reign. Surely then all the Hosts shall have their strength put forth in defence of, and providing for this place of this glorious reign of their great General.

7. The Church is the people of the Lord of Hosts, Zep. 2. 10, 11. This shall they have for their pride, because §7they have reproached & magnified themselves against the people of the Lord of Hosts. The Lord will be terrible unto them. They in their pride lift up themselves, and magnify themselves against the Saints, as if they were a company of silly weak men, they do not know that they are the people of the Lord of Hosts, therefore God threatens there that he will be terrible unto them.
