476 Sbe Doliest <strong>of</strong> ZW<br />

to set before us the glory <strong>of</strong> the better, the perfect thing God<br />

has provided for us in Christ.<br />

Shall we not listen to the witness<br />

<strong>of</strong> the heroes <strong>of</strong> our faith in the days when the sun had not yet<br />

risen, and let ourselves be ashamed out <strong>of</strong> our worldliness and<br />

sloth?<br />

If we will but yield ourselves to the glorious perfection-<br />

Priest and His<br />

truths <strong>of</strong> our Epistle, the perfection <strong>of</strong> our High<br />

work, and press on unto it, He to whom it has been given to<br />

work His work in us in the power <strong>of</strong> an endless life, and so to<br />

save completely, will reveal in us that better and perfect thing<br />

as we have never yet known it.<br />

<strong>By</strong> faith they obtained the<br />

promises. <strong>By</strong> faith the fulfilment <strong>of</strong> every promise will be<br />

made true to us in the power <strong>of</strong> the Pentecostal Spirit, who comes<br />

from the throne <strong>of</strong> our great High Priest.<br />

1. Wherefore holy brethren, partakers <strong>of</strong> a heavenly calling, consider Jesus. It is He has done<br />

all : it is He who, as much, must do all now. It is He makes the <strong>Holiest</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>All</strong>, and the entrance<br />

into it, and the life there to serue the living God, a living continual reality. If hitherto thou hast<br />

been living without the veil, do believe Bod has provided some better thing for thee too.<br />

2. He does this in the power <strong>of</strong> the Holy Spirit dwelling within us. Christ redeemed us, that<br />

we might receive the promise <strong>of</strong> the Spirit through faith. <strong>The</strong> Holy Spirit is the all-inclusive<br />

blessing <strong>of</strong> the better covenant. It<br />

is His to bring Jesus and heaven and the power <strong>of</strong> an endless<br />

life Into us, and keep us in it.<br />

3. May God reveal to us what Abraham s going out from his country, what Moses choice <strong>of</strong><br />

suffering and reproach, what Israel s leaving Egypt means. If we are ready to forsake all, we fhall<br />

inherit all.
