STANDING BEFORE THE JUDGE

The Bedside Watchman
EXHORTATIONS FROM THE DAILY READINGS

December 28th -- Revelation 15

SEEK first the Kingdom of God," saith the Great Teacher, "and His righteousness." How highly important is this exhortation now, seeing that in a very short time the resurrection will have transpired, and no further invitation to inherit it will be presented to the world. Ought we not, then, to awake to earnestness, and by a rigid scrutiny of our faith and practice, obtain a scriptural satisfaction, if we shall be able to stand unabashed before the Judge of the living and the dead? The glory that shall follow is great for the approved. The world is theirs (1 Corinthians 3:21,22), when all nations come and do homage before the Prince of Israel, because his judgments are made manifest (Revelation 15:4)

JOHN THOMAS, Exposition of Daniel, page 115
