named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come. Eph. 1:20,21. In that high position he acts as priest in man's behalf. Heb. 8:1,2; 7:25. And this position he will hold at the right hand of the Father while the gospel continues and mercy is offered to men, and until all his enemies are subjected to him and made his footstool, and he makes the momentous change from the position of priest to that of king. For this was the instruction and the promise of the Father to him when he ascended from the work he had finished on earth, to his Father's throne in heaven: "Sit thou at my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool." Ps. 110:1. And the apostle expressly declares that Christ now occupies on the throne of his Father the position set forth in the psalm just quoted, and is waiting the fulfilment of that promise. p. 41, Para. 1, [LOOKING]. Mark his language: "But this man [Christ], after he had offered one sacrifice for sins forever, sat down on the right hand of God: from henceforth expecting [or waiting with expectation,] till his enemies be made his footstool." Heb. 10:12,13. This making his enemies his footstool, will be the giving to him by the Father, of the kingdom, to be composed of those, not only whom he has created, but whom he has also redeemed by his own blood. Ps. 2:8; Dan. 7:14; Matt. 13:41-43; Acts 20:28. And when he has reached this stage in his work, and the kingdom is formally committed to his control, he comes to take his people to himself (John 14:3), to destroy those enemies who have been made his footstool, who would not have him to reign over them (Luke 19:27), to raise the righteous dead, and change the righteous living to immortality. 1 Cor. 15:51,52. And then after completing the work of Judgment (Rev. 20:4) he will bid his people take the kingdom prepared for them from the foundation of the world (Matt. 25:34), in which kingdom they are to reign forever and ever. Dan. 2:44; 7:27; Luke 1:32,33. p. 42, Para. 1, [LOOKING]. Chapter 7 -- CHRIST THE THEME OF THE BIBLE p. 43, Para. 1, [LOOKING]. IN Christ, riding gloriously on in his redeeming work, the Bible finds the burden of its theme. He is the Alpha and Omega; "the author and finisher of our faith;" the one who devised the method by which lost man can be saved, and who will bring it to its glorious finish. Heb. 12:2. The Bible opens with his work as creator, it closes with is coming again as redeemer. Through all the ages, he is the subject
of its praises and its prophecies. Ere man left the garden of Eden, he was introduced as the coming "seed of the woman," which should bruise the serpent's head. Gen. 3:15. He was in Noah warning the wicked antediluvians of a coming flood. 1 Pet. 3:19,20. Melchisedec, king and priest of the Most High God, was his representative. Hebrews 7. He was typified by Abraham and Isaac. Gal. 3:16; 4:28. As prophet and leader, he was prefigured by Moses. Deut. 18:15. He was with the church in the wilderness (Ex. 32:34), a pillar of cloud by day, and of fire by night. Ex. 13:21. His coming to this world at his first advent, was plainly predicted, and the time of his manifestation as the Messiah was marked by a definite and easily computed prophetic period. Dan. 9:25. As a sacrifice and offering, psalm and prophecy sound his praises. As a merciful high priest, who can be touched with the feeling of our infirmities, apostles magnify his name. While the ecstatic visions of the glory that shall be revealed, when he shall set up that kingdom which shall harbor neither sin nor death, and have no end, have thrilled with rapture bards and kings, prophets and apostles, have called forth the highest and sweetest notes of angelic anthem and heavenly song, and excited even among the angels a desire to search into the marvelous theme. 1 Pet. 1:11,12. p. 44, Para. 1, [LOOKING]. Thus, when the apostle bids us look unto Jesus, we are called to no limited vision. To behold him in all his ways and works, our eyes must sweep the whole horizon round. If we look for the creator of all things, we see Jesus. If we search for the redeemer of the world, it is to Jesus we are brought. Do we look for the center around which all God's plans and purposes revolve? there is Jesus. Do we yearn for a sacrifice of such merit that it can reach to the deepest taint of sin? we find it in Jesus. Do we look for an offering so worthy that God can accept it for a guilty world? again we see Jesus. Do we long for one who can bear the burden of human woes, the world's sicknesses and sorrows, and so our own? we find the compassionate One, and lo! it is Jesus. Do we look at the course and ask the significance of human history? it is found in Jesus: for real history is but the record of the development of God's plans for the accomplishment of his work in the world. "Ancient history converged to his cross; modern history has received from him its organizing law." (1) Modern history radiates from the mount of Calvary. And all events are controlled directly or indirectly to the carrying out of God's gracious designs for his people. If we look to the unnumbered sepul-
