The Tabernacle not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.... The fruit of the Spirit is ... peace" (John 14:27; Gal. 5:22). "He shall be a priest upon his throne. . . . The Prince of Peace" (Zech. 6:13; Isaiah 9:6). "Now the God of peace himself give you peace al- ways by all means" (II Thess. 3:16). "At the Cross" As we "behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world" (John 1:29); as we meditate upon the significance of the Levitical offerings, which fore- shadowed His coming into the world to fulfill the eternal purpose of the eternal God of love; as we think upon these things, we stand in wonder and awe and praise before the altar which was His cross. And beholding Him, we well may thank Him, in the words of the poet who wrote: "Though all the beasts that live and feed
"Though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool" (Isaiah 1:18).
Upon a thousand hills should bleed, Though all their blood shauld flow, The sacrifice would be in vain; The stain of sin would still remain; Sin is not cancelled so. "A better sacrifice than these It needs, the conscience to appease, Or satisfy the Lord: No blood hath virtue to atone For man's offence, but His alone, Whose title is 'The Word of God'."
My unsaved friend, will you behold Him crucified for your sins; yea, risen and glorified and one day coming again to take His kingdom and His throne? Look to Him
