Look at these office managers and group leaders.[1]·Each has a private phone to speak personally with the king. Sometimes they go directly to his presence. All of them say that the king has prepared a magnificent and awesome place for reward and punishment. His promises are emphatic, and his threats are stern. His pride and dignity do not allow him to suffer the humiliation inherent in breaking a promise. The bearers of this report, who are so numerous as to be universally accepted, unanimously report that the seat and headquarters of the lofty kingdom, some of whose traces are visible here, are located in another realm far from here. The buildings here are temporary and soon will be exchanged for eternal palaces. This world will change, for that magnificent and unfading kingdom, the splendor of which is apparent from its works, cannot be founded or based on something transient, impermanent, unstable, insignificant, changing, defective, and imperfect. It can be based only on matters worthy of it, and which are eternal, stable, permanent, and glorious. Thus there is another realm toward which we are heading. [1] The indicated meanings can be found in the Eight Truth. For example, we use office managers and group leaders for Prophets and saints, and phone for a link and relation with God that goes forth from the heart, and is Revelation’s mirror and inspiration’s receptacle. The heart is like the telephone’s ear-piece. Related Items: |
