THE fore-going Properties, is that which makes way for the Reign of Christ in Personal Power and Glory, which is now the great thing to be waited for, as the End and Consummation of all that hath been revealed. In the bare discovery of which we are not to rest, but we are to press forward to enjoy the Fruit or Product of it in the inward Center, where Christ will be manifested in his Personal Glory and Power. For the driving seeking Spirit will not be at rest, till it can put on its Resurrection-Body: It knows that hitherto, notwithstanding all its Refinings and Dyings to sinful Self, and the World, it yet remains a naked Spirit, which must return into the Virgin-Womb of Eternity, there to be regenerated into an Heavenly Corporeity, from the one Holy Element, out of which Christ’s Holy Personality is taken: This is the rich Garment with which the Sion-Kings are to be arrayed, and thereby will be distinguished from those who stick fast in corrupted Nature, and are not regenerated into this bright Image; and from those also, who though they are regenerated according to the inward Man, yet being intangled in the Thicket of the Many things, are fain to stay behind, till those who by their hard pressing forward, have overcome the World, Beast and Dragon. Therefore be first instated in the Lord’s Personal Power; for the Lord assured me, that this would be the way he would take in this present Age, to instate some who are known to him, in his Personal Reign, that they may enjoy here on Earth their first Heavens, to the Terror, Grief and Envy of such, who have been hard, and cruel in the Beast’s Kingdom, restraining their good things from the Lambs of Christ’s Fold. Here it will be as in the case of Dives and Lazarus, they shall see those who were most despicable in their Eyes, to be greatly beloved and honoured, as being intrusted with a Kingdom, in which they shall Reign as the true Born Co-heirs with their Head, Christ, bearing rule over all those who have been their Oppressors in this World. It was also revealed to me, That there were others which stood in a mixed state, and divided between the two Kingdoms of Light and Darkness, but yet followed after the Mark and Crown; these would scarce believe that such a Commission as this would ever be given to any appearing in a Mortal Form, to be crowned as Co-heirs with the Lord in his Personal Glory: But the Just One hath shewed that thus it shall be, to convince and provoke to Emulation these last spoken of, that they also may make haste to be made Kings and Priests to God.
