Fifthly, The Dominion and Government of the KINGDOM of Christ on EARTH shall be given to the Saints, Dan. 7.27. and be Managed by them according to the Laws of Christ; and to that End the Saints, (who shall Reign with Christ on Earth) shall be rarely Qualified, and fitted for that Kingdom, Work, and Kingly Government: for, 1. They shall be all Righteous, Isa. 60.21. They shall do no Iniquity, Zeph. 3.13. They shall be without Fault before the THRONE of God, Rev. 14.5. 2. The Saints shall be SPIRITED for Government, Isa. 28.5, 6. Constituted Government, Rev. 5.9, 10. and strengthened for Governing, Zech. 12.5, 8. and Isa. 45.24, 25. 3dly, and Lastly, The Saints shall be clothed with Humility, so that they shall Cast down their Crowns at the Feet of Christ, their KING, Rev. 4.10, 11. Exalting HIM alone, ch. 5.9, 10. And they shall be Endued with Courage, Clad with Zeal, and Girded with Strength and Truth, that they may bind Kings in Chains, and Nobles in Fetters of IRON, and Execute upon them the JUDGMENT written, Luke 19.27. This HONOUR have all his SAINTS, Psal. 149.1, 2, 6, 7, 8, 9. which ⟨p. 17⟩was Prophesied of Jer. 51.19-24. Thou art my Battle-Axe and Weapon of WAR, for with thee will I break in pieces the Nations, and with thee will I destroy Kingdoms, and with thee will I break in pieces Captains and RULERS, &c. Also Zech. 12.5, 6. In that DAY will I make the GOVERNORS of Judah like a Hearth of Fire among the Wood, and like a Torch of Fire in a Sheaf, and they shall devour all the PEOPLE (the Enemies of Christ) round about.
