The Kingdome of God in the Writings of Divines, and specially in Sermons, and Treatises of Devotion, is taken most commonly for Eternall Felicity, after this life, in the Highest Heaven, which they also call the Kingdome of Glory; and sometimes for (the earnest of that felicity) Sanctification, which they terme the Kingdome of Grace, but never for the Monarchy, that is to say, the Soveraign Power of God over any Subjects acquired by their own consent, which is the proper signification of Kingdome.
Teologoen idatzietan eta, bereziki, deboziozko tratatu eta predikuetan, Jainkoaren Erresumak, eskuarki, bizitza honen ondorengo zeru gorenari dagokion betiereko zoriontasuna esan nahi du, dohatasun-erreinua ere deitzen diotena; eta zenbaitetan, dohatasun horretan baliotsuena dena, santutasuna, adierazten du, haiek graziazko erreinua deitzen diotena.
