[Songs in the Night - June 12]
At the name of Jesus every knee should bow. Philippians 2:10
WHILE we contemplate this high exaltation of the
Master let us not forget that his bride is to be joint-heir
with him in all of his glory, honor, and immortality,
and that the privilege of becoming members of
the bride class belongs to the "called, chosen, faithful",
the "very elect" of this Gospel age.
If we could but have
this in mind continually, what manner of persons would we be in all holy conversation and godliness—how trifling all earthly pleasures and sorrows, all riches
and poverty, all weakness and debasement would seem
to us! so intense would we be in our desire to make
our calling and election sure to those exceeding great
and precious promises. Z'07-121 R3979:4 (Hymn 25)
