birth of redemption,-"put on its glorious resurrection robes and minister delight to the ennobled senses of the redeemed." "Behold, I make all things new," says the Alpha and the Omega-the Beginning and the End—not in the sense of a new creation, but in the sense of the perfect renovation and exaltation of the old. Mankind will return to the youth of Eden; paradise will be restored. The tree of life will bloom again, and the river of life will flow as the true fountain of youth through the unfading landscapes of immortality. All that Adam lost through disobedience will be restored in a higher shape through Christ's obedience. All that we loved and lost here will meet us there, and we shall rejoice, and our joy no man shall take from us. All the old things of the curse will pass away in the everlasting spring. The spirits of just men will be made perfect. There will be neither marrying nor giving in marriage-no birth, and consequently no death, for all will be as the angels of heaven. The angels wear the bloom of eternal youth, for whenever they appeared on earth they were seen as young men. And the redeemed in glory will have the body of their humiliation changed and fashioned like unto the body of Christ; and we know what a body that is-incorruptible, undefiled, unfading-Jesus Christ, the same yesterday, to-day and for ever. "We shall be like Him, for we shall see Him as He is."

THE END.
