9. Doct. Of the kingdome of Christ, as he is God, and as he is Mediatour, God and man.

v. 44. The God of heauen shall set vp a kingdome. The kingdome of Christ, is either his naturall kingdome, which he had from all beginning togither with the Father and the holy Ghost, which is called the vniuersall kingdome whereby he ruleth in heauen and earth: which kingdome as he assumed not, so he shall neuer lay it downe.

There is also regnum donativum, the kingdome which is giuen to him of his Father, as he is Mediatour, God and man: whereof he speaketh, Matth. 28. 18. All power is giuen vnto me is heauen and earth: this is that speciall and particular kingdome, which he exerciseth more specially in his Church, in protecting and defending the same against all the enemies and ad∣uersaries thereof.

This kingdome giuen vnto Christ, is likewise considered two waies, it is either the king∣dome of grace, whereby he guideth his Church in this world, directing them vnto euerla∣sting saluation; or the kingdome of glorie in the next life, when he hath brought his Church and companie of the Elect vnto euerlasting saluation in heauen, there to raigne for euer: Polan.
