We are going to be His companions in glory; and, as to our Present case, it is: I have declared unto them thy name, and-will declare it; that the love wherewith thou hast loved me may be in them, and I in them." The world will know we have been loved as Christ, when it sees us in the glory, children all dressed, so to speak, in the same way-the same interest shown in all.
And He does it now by the Holy Ghost. I have a present consciousness, that I am loved as Jesus is loved. What a thing -to say! But there it is, and we know He does not deceive us; and this perfect love flows down into our hearts. What a wondrous place! Do you believe that that is in God's heart towards you? And if I had this Christ in my heart, do you think I could get on' with that world that spat in His face? The world is repugnant to the heart that has Christ in it. Which is it?-Christ or the world? Where- are our hearts? Has this'. taken possession of them? We- have got the world all around us soliciting them; do they go out after it 2 (J. N. D.)
