While these words of holy trust ascend to God, the clouds sweep - TopicsExpress



          

While these words of holy trust ascend to God, the clouds sweep back, and the starry heavens are seen, unspeakably glorious in contrast with the black and angry firmament on either side. The glory of the celestial city streams from the gates ajar. Then there appears against the sky a hand holding two tables of stone folded together. Says the prophet: The heavens shall declare His righteousness: for God is judge Himself. Psalm 50:6. That holy law, Gods righteousness, that amid thunder and flame was proclaimed from Sinai as the guide of life, is now revealed to men as the rule of judgment. The hand opens the tables, and there are seen the precepts of the Decalogue, traced as with a pen of fire. The words are so plain that all can read them. Memory is aroused, the darkness of superstition and heresy is swept from every mind, and Gods ten words, brief, comprehensive, and authoritative, are presented to the view of all the inhabitants of the earth. {Great Controversy 639.1}
