him; and had glorified the Father in taking upon Himself the sins of the
world, in which He had suffered the will of the Father in all things
from the beginning. The multitude fell down at his feet and worshiped."

"I have been told that as Jesus entered the prison of the condemned in
the spirit world, a murmur of greeting welcomed Him. It was timid and
faint at first, but it increased in volume and force until it became a
shout.

"'Lift up your heads, O ye gates, and be ye lifted up, ye everlasting
doors.'"

"'Hail, hail, to the Lord.'"

"'And the King of Glory shall come in.'"

"'Who is the King of Glory?'"

"'The Lord, strong and mighty.'"

"'The Lord, will not cast off forever; but though He cause grief, yet
will He have compassion, according to the multitude of His mercies.'"

"'I will not contend forever, neither will I be always wroth.'"

"'Come and let us return unto the Lord: for He hath torn and He will
heal; He hath smitten and He will bind us up.'"

"'I will heal their back slidings, I will love them freely; for mine
anger is turned away.'"
