• From a world in revolt we pass to the calm of heaven to learn God’s thoughts of man’s vain efforts. The great men of the earth―its political leaders, its scientists, its philosophers―may combine to cast off all recognition of God, but, unmoved by all their efforts the Christ of God “sitteth in the heavens,” and holds man’s revolt in derision. Men rage on earth; God laughs in heaven. Human ideas are employed to convey to us heaven’s contempt of man’s folly. (“Psalms 2” by H. Smith)
