Tracts on Prophecy (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Tracts on Prophecy

Calmly and kindly does the Apostle turn and place this glowing page before the mourners' weeping eye, bidding them to comfort one another with these words. Bless ed words, - consoling thoughts. They have been the oil of joy to mourning hearts for eighteen hundred years, and still they hush the low complaining sig - still they dry the flowing tear, - still they make the place of weep ing a place of joy, and bind about the tomb the flowers of never fading hope. Still they illuminate the path that lies along the dark valley. Still they strengthen those who stand beside the dying. Still they comfort those who weep above the dead. Never shall the Christian's eye cease to contemplate the picture; never shall his heart cease to thrill with the anticipationl - never shall his hope cease to embrace the promise, until the rent heavens dis close the majestic form of the descending King-the quak ing earth deliver up its sleeping captives at his call, and the saints from every age and climc, unite in singing the song of Moses and the Lamb, Far from a world of grief and sin, With God eternally shut in.
