There will come a day--the glory is
such we can form no conception of it, the mystery is so deep we can not
realize it, but there is a day coming, when the Son shall deliver up the
Kingdom that the Father gave Him, and that He won with His blood, and that
He hath established and perfected from the throne of His glory. "He shall
deliver up the Kingdom unto the Father." The Son Himself shall be subject
also unto the Father, "that God may be all in all." I cannot understand
it--the ever blessed Son equal with God, from eternity, and through
eternity; the ever blessed Son on the throne shall be subject unto the
Father; and in some way utterly beyond our comprehension, it shall then be
made manifest, as never before, that God is all in all. It is this that
Christ has been working for; it is this that He is working for to-day in
us; it is this that He thought it worth while to give His blood for; it is
this that His heart is longing for in each of us; this is the very essence
and glory of Christianity, "that God may be all in all.
