Not only shall it be true that the Lord’s
Anointed One shall be head and shoulders above all
others, “the chiefest among ten thousand, the one altogether
lovely,” but it should also be true to a considerable extent
that all those who have been intimately associated with
the members of the Body of Christ in the present
life—before He is proclaimed King of the whole
world—should have been able to recognize the largeness
and grandeur of character in those whom the Lord has chosen for this
place of honor in the affairs of men. They should have
been able to take knowledge of them that they had been
with Jesus, should have seen their largeness of
heart,their moral heights should have discerned
in them the spirit of a sound
mind. |
