GOD HAS BEEN MANIFESTED IN FLESH (IV)

 “I love my master” – how distinct has been

The speaking! – “my wife, and my children,

I will not go free”.

(Loanhead 13 June 2022)

So He came forth, the Universe-maker,

Heaven-measurer, to be confined within

The breadth of a tomb.

He who had spread out the heavens

As a tent to dwell in was prepared to be

Bound up in fine linen.

(Loanhead 15 June 2022)

He arose:

He ascended, and “set himself down

On the right hand of the greatness on high”.

The Father raised Him

By His glory; welcomed Him in glory,

Enfolded Him in heavenly glory.

(Loanhead 17 June 2022)

He was made alive

In the Spirit, acted by the Spirit,

Set forth the dawn of the day of the Spirit.

(Loanhead Lord’s day 19 June 2022)

Moral glories

Effulged on the day of resurrection

As the Shepherd ranged among His flock.

Official glories,

Once laid aside, now enjoyed,

Along with the One known now as Father.

(Loanhead 20 June 2022)

After the cataract

The river broadens, becomes an estuary,

Imperceptibly merges into the ocean.

From the glen’s darkness

The way emerges; the view broadens

Over the strath’s fertility.

(Loanhead 21 June 2022)

Enter by the porch

The house of God; see the enlarging,

The upward increase: for “the house had width upward”.

(Loanhead 22 June 2022)

Jesus Christ has come:

To all generations of the ages of ages

There will be glory unto God

In the assembly in Christ Jesus.

Amen.

(Loanhead 23 June 2022)
