I FEEL more and more the blessedness of resurrection-life: the calm, quiet peace to be enjoyed in the life of Christ, which is deaf and blind to the influences of worldly principles and allurements, has its ear bored willingly to the door of the Lord God Almighty, and the eye filled with the bright countenance and majesty of Him who is the brightness of the Father’s glory, the beauty of Jehovah’s holiness. Between the world and those who have risen with Christ there is a great gulf, where lieth the dead flesh and bones of the Adam-life, which hath died upon the cross of Christ once, and dieth no more, but is by faith to be reckoned dead; while, like Israel upon the off-shore from Egypt, we rejoice as risen from the flood, beneath whose waters our flesh, with its Egypt tyrants, lie dead; and, in the power of our third-day’s journey, we can walk with God in a new life; and wait, in dependence on Him alone, for a safe conduct to our inheritance incorruptible, that fadeth not away.
