d himself shall be with them, and be their God: they
shall "_see his face_!" And not only the vision, but the _fruition_. Oh!
how does sin in my holiest moments damp the enjoyment of Him! It is the
"pure in heart" alone who can "see," far more, who can enjoy "God." Even
if he did reveal himself _now_, these eyes could never endure His
intolerable brightness. But _then_, with a heart purified from
corruption--a world where the taint of sin and the power of temptation
never enters--the soul again a bright mirror, reflecting the lost image
of the Godhead--all the affections devoted to their original high
destiny--the love of God the motive principle, the ruling passion--the
glory of God the undivided object and aim--the will no opposing or
antagonist bias,--man will, for the first time, know all the blessedness
of his chief end,--"to glorify God, and to enjoy Him for ever!"

"REMEMBER _THIS_ WORD UNTO THY SERVANT, UPON
WHICH THOU HAST CAUSED ME TO HOPE!"

All

The Promises of God

In Him

Are Yea and in Him

Amen.
