How we are Connected to God

"The Revised Version reads: "One Lord Jesus Christ, through whom are all things, and we through him." 
 
This thought is represented to us in the dream of Jacob: "And he
dreamed, and behold a ladder set up on the earth, and the top of it reached to heaven: and behold the angels of God ascending and descending upon it.
" Genesis 28:12
 
This dream was a representation to Jacob, and the record of it is designed to teach us that Jesus Christ connects earth with heaven; that Jesus Christ, reaching down to this earth, encircling us with His human arm, reaches up and with His divine arm grasps the throne of God, so that man is once more, through Jesus Christ, connected with God."
