great statement thit the hour comes
when the dead shall hear the voice
of the Son of God and live. The hope
of eternal life had stirred men from
remote antiquity. Since the Resur
rection it has thrilled men with as
surance. :
Death came through Adam’s dis
obedience, but in Christ all shall
live. Christ has risen, we shall rise.
At length the present order will
cease in the swift passing of the
world. The atomic bomb indicates
that the utter destruction of the
earth is entirely possible. When the
end comes, the cataclysm will not
touch the unseen heaven. That
blessed place will remain for the
people of God. Let the Easter sea
son bring the spiritual certainties of
the other world nearer to all of us.
Within his decaying earthly tab-|
ernacle man himself may be re- \
newed day by day until he puts his j
shining garments on to dwell with i
God evermore. The things which are
seen are temporal, but: the things
which are not seen are eternal.
Nothing you can see with the mortal
eye will endure. Only what you see
with the eyes of faith will outlast
the world. Everything worth while
is an unseen thing.
When our earthly house shall fail,
we .shall have a house not made with
hands, eternal in the Heavens. May
the assurance of an eternal life of
righteousness come to us anew this
Easter, giving high purposes to the
life which now is, and thrilling our
hearts with sure hopes of a blessed
future.
