Christs personall reigne on earth, one thousand yeares with his saints the manner, beginning, and continuation of his reigne clearly proved by many plain texts of Scripture, and the chiefe objections against it fully answered, explaining the 20 Revelations and all other Scripture-prophecies that treat of it : containing a full reply to Mr. Alexander Petrie ... who wrote against ... Israels redemption / by Robert Maton.

The 3. Particular.

His owne words doe clearely prove it, Rev. 3. ver. 21.

Mr. Petrie's answer.

Can any man see in these words any thing for an earthly Kingdome? for albeit the Throne of the Father, and the Throne of our Saviour were diverse, yet may they not be both in heaven?

Reply.

Can any man choose but see in these words, two distince Thrones? & will any man besides you say, that they maybe both in heaven? What? Can our Saviour have an idle Throne in hea∣ven? Throne in which he doth not now sit? For he now sits in his Fathers Throne; and when then shall he sit in that other Throne which you say may be in heaven besides his Fathers Throne? Certainely you cannot tell us; To put you out of doubt then, that the Throne which our Saviour here calls [my Throne] is a distinct Throne from the Fathers, and yet not in heaven: you

must remember first, that this Throne is our Saviours Throne of judgment, which he shall receive, when he comes to judge the quicke and the dead, and therefore is to be on earth, and not in heaven. And secondly, That it is the Throne in which the Saints that overcome shall sitwith him; & therfore also not the Throne where he now sits, because no man can sit in that but himselfe. And therefore also the Throne as well of his Monar••hicall go∣vernment, as of his judging the dead at his delivering up of the Kingdome to the Father: because it is in the time of his reig•••• onely, that the twelve Apostles shall sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve Tribes of Israel, as hath been shewed before.
