therefore the Apostle saith, that upon them the ends of the world were come, and that Apostates may taste of the powers of the would to come, yet more than once in the Scripture is the world to come taken more strictly for Dies judicii, vel secundi adventus Messiae, the day of judgment as we showed you the last opportunity. Consider Eph. 1.20, 21. Luke 20.34, 35, 36. Then, and not till then, will be the time when the Saints ⟨p. 134⟩shall judge the world, and have dominion over all the earth. There are many mistakes about this matter. Some deny that ever the Saints shall have a glorious kingdom upon the earth; others say, that it shall be, but long before Jesus Christ cometh to judge the world. But the truth is, that great glory promised to the Saints, the new heaven and the new earth wherein dwelleth righteousness, will be neither before, nor after, but during the time of the day of judgment. Then shall every knee bow, and every tongue confess unto God, Rom. 14.10, 11. Thus Psal. 66.4. it is said, All the earth shall worship thee, and shall sing unto thee, they shall sing to thy name. Selah. Now in the Septuagint that 66 Psalm is in the Title of it called (†)a Psalm of the Resurrection. Then therefore will that Scripture be fulfilled, that All the earth shall worship God, sc. after the resurrection at the last day. Let us consider the Scripture a little further, Psal. 96.11. O let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth be glad, let the Sea roar, and the fullness thereof, let the field be joyful, and all that is therein, then shall all the Trees of the Wood rejoice. Now when is that, that the creatures shall thus be delivered and restored to their primitive beauty and glory? ver. 13. before the Lord, for he cometh, for he cometh to judge the earth, he shall judge the world with righteousness, and the people with his truth.
