SCRIPTURE says this is night, this season between Christ's rejection and His coming again. When He returns it will be all blessed and bright; but till then His people are here with widowed hearts, though one with Him at God's right hand, having fellowship and communion with Him there, and getting power from on high. And this power enables me to sink the old thing-to reckon dead that which wants position, and influence, and place here. The very fact that we should be fretting for such things is a sign of the working of the old man that belongs to earth and to such things. But I have power to walk in conscious deliverance from the man that has his heart set on this scene.
