When we survey the scene, that darkness tries to probe that fills this earth, we fail to sum the tears, assess the weight, the total burden tells of human grief, the legacy of sickness, pain, and loss, but man’s Creator knows, and man’s Redeemer took that load. These on their swift descent, without relent, pursue their flight from things above, and yet cannot escape redeeming love. Vast energy is wasted, countless ages lost, the total of innumerable lives away from God, as blinded minds forsake creation’s Source and plunge to that abyss oblivious of all meaning to life’s course, for they deny its Cause. Like the Niagara, sin comprehends each missing of the mark, ten million drops each moment of man’s day, a mighty fall indeed. It is well for us to grasp what God has shown, that process yet involved of loosening sin’s hold from every soul.
The ransom long provided now applied for Adam and in him the race, that precious blood of sprinkling yet must touch the lintels of each heart, that from death’s powers each soul may then break free, not merely for one hour but for eternity. That moment now arrives to testify to God’s redeeming power to all mankind. In glory there we see the saints at last prepared to share with Jesus in that work so vital to man’s future here on earth “ The ministry of glory and the breaking of death’s powers.”
