---Here we may hold communion
with patriarchs and prophets and listen to the voice of the Eternal as
He speaks with men.
---Here we behold the Majesty of heaven as He humbled
Himself to become our substitute and surety, to cope single-handed with
the powers of darkness, and to gain the victory in our behalf.
A
reverent contemplation of such themes as these cannot fail
to soften,
purify,
and ennoble the heart,
and at the same time to inspire the mind
with new strength and vigor."
E.G.W.
