Modern spelling is a reading aid: the words are the author’s, only the spelling is modernized. Original shows the page as printed, with the transcription marks.
Angels are of two sorts: 1. Such as abide doing the will of God, retaining that name by way of eminency: 2. Such as by Sin have lost their first habitation, State, and Condition, usually called evil Angels, or Devils: The Lord Jesus hath Dominion over all, and both sorts of them.
Men may be cast under one common distribution which is comprehensive of all distinctions whereby they are differenced: For they all are either Elect or Reprobates. And the Lord Jesus hath Rule and Dominion over them all.
Things, that are subject unto the Lord Jesus may be referred unto four heads: for they are either, 1. Spiritual; or 2. Ecclesiastical; or 3. Political; or 4. Natural.
Again, Spiritual are either, (1.) Temporal, as 1. Grace, 2. Gifts; or (2.) Eternal, as Glory.
Ecclesiastical or Church things, are either, 1. Judaical, or Old Testament Things; or 2. Christian, or Things of the New Testament.
