The End of the New-Creation in the World to come, is, first, To make all things very good, as God did in the first Creation, Gen. 1.31. And God saw every thing that he had made, and behold it was very good. So the Lord Jesus Christ will create all things new, and make every thing very good, in the world to come: Wherein will be the Times of the Restitution of all things, which God hath spoken by the mouth of all his holy Prophets, since the world began, Act. 3.19, 20, 21. Secondly, To glorify himself, and to make his Church glorious, Isa. 28.5. & 62.3. In that Day shall the LORD of Hosts be for a Crown of Glory, and for a Diadem of Beauty unto the Residue of his People. Thou shalt also be a Crown of Glory in the hand of the LORD, and a Royal Diadem in the hand of thy God. Isa. 60.1, 2, 3, 7, 9, 13, 19, 22. I the LORD will hasten it in his Time.
