Cf/f)Y. love Jesus when we are advanced m the divine life, from a participation with him in the great work of his incarnation. We long to see our fellowmen turned from darkness to light, and we love him as the sun of righteousness, who can alone illuminate them. We hate sin, and therefore we rejoice in him as manifested to take away sin. We pant for holier and happier times, and therefore we adore him as the coming Ruler of all lands, who will bring a millennium with him in the day of his appearing. Love the soul of every man with all the intensity of thy being.
