18 And then the last of all, Christ is such a King, as he doth in a spiritual sense make all his Subjects Kings, he hath a Crown of glory for every Subject, for every one of those that are his Subjects, in that near relation, as he is King of Saints, I say, he will put Crowns of glory upon them all; you have it in Rev. 5.10. And hast made us unto our God Kings and Priests, and we shall Reign on the earth, not only in heaven, but on the earth. Why now how wonderful is Christ in this his Kingly power, that he is able to make every Subject that he hath a King? and he will do it. Now then, If we should put all these together that have been named, you see how wonderful Christ is in his Kingly Power.
