2. The Doors of Heaven are thrown open to thee, the Everlasting Gates are set wide for thee, and an abundant Entrance into the Kingdom of Heaven administered to thee. Christ now speaks to thee, (as she her Husband) Arise, and take Possession, 1 Kings 21.15. View the Glory of the other World, as set forth in the Man ⟨p. 145⟩of the Gospel. Get thee up into Pisgah of the Promises, and lift up thine Eyes Westward, Northward, Southward, and Eastward, and see the good Land that is beyond Jordan, and that goodly Mountain. Behold the Paradise of God, watered with the Streams of Glory. Arise, and walk through the Land, in the Length of it, and in the Breadth of it; for the Land which thou seest, the Lord will give it to thee for ever, if thou wilt but return, Gen. 13.14, 15, 17. Let me say to thee, as Paul to Agrippa, believest thou the Prophets? If thou believest indeed, do but view what glorious Things are spoken of the City of God, Psalm 87.3. and know that all this is here tendered in the Name of God to thee: As verily as God is true, it shall be for ever thine, if thou wilt but thoroughly turn.
