VI. Some Kings have possessed and reigned over many Kingdoms, their Dominions have been very great: The Saints are the Heirs of a Kingdom, nay• all the Kingdoms under the whole Heavens shall be given to them.1 The Kingdoms of this World shall become the Kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ, &c. And the Kingdoms, and Dominions, and the Greatness of the Kingdom, under the whole Heaven, shall be given to the People of the Saints of the Most High, &c.

Our Conversation is in Heaven, &c.
