i}s,” as some would tell us when they deny His substitution­ ary death, but there is undoubtedly something accomplished for us. 5 Law was magnified, justice was satisfied, hell was stulti­ fied, God was glorified, Scripture was fulfilled, sin’s barrier was removed, heaven was opened, and all blessing was se­ cured. The influence of that glorious work will vibrate through the universe of God’s creation, till all things shall bq harmonized in the will of God. Sin which caused “a harsh din” to go clanging through the whole of the fair creation, shall be hushed in Him Who taketh away the sin of Sthe world. Practical in Its Outcome 1. Christ taught that His death would be practical in its ¡outcome. The objective fact of Christ’s vicarious sacri­ fice1, is a subjective force which is vitalizing in its working. Lisien to Christ’s own words again. He said, “Yerily, verily, I say unto you, except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone, but if it die it bringeth forth much fruit. He that loVeth his life shall lose it, but he tpat hateth his life in this world shall keep it unto life eternal. If any man serve Me, let him follow Me” (John 12:24-26). The one dominating thought in these wondrous words is, that as Christ lost His life in blessing us, so we ought to follow Him in being willing to lay down our lives for others; and as He has found Himself in the ennobled lives He has blest, so we find ourselves in others whom we have served out of love to Him. He will have died in vain if we do not avail ourselves of His death. He offers Himself in the cleansing of His blood, in the blessing of forgiveness of sins, in the gift of eternal life, in the joy of peace with God, in the separating power of His death, in the victory of His Cross, in the glow of His love, and in the might of His grace. May I put a personal question to any unsaved reader of these lines? Will you not receive Him now by an act of your will, and thus be saved by Him, and made holy in Him?
