"For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, That, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, That ye through his poverty might be rich." He in whom "dwelleth all the fullness of the Godhead bodily," Descended to our world, humiliated himself By clothing his divinity with humanity, That through humanity He might reach the human family. While he embraces the human race with his human arm, He grasps the throne of God with his divine arm, Thus uniting humanity to divinity. The Majesty of heaven, The King of glory, descended the path of humiliation Step by step until he reached the lowest point Possible for humanity to experience; and why? That he might be able to reach even the lowest of mankind, Sunken in the very depths of degradation though they be, That he might be able to elevate them to the heights of heaven. He has promised, "To him that overcometh Will I grant to sit with me in my throne, Even as I also overcame, and am set down With my Father in his throne." Wonder of wonders! Man, a creature of the earth; dust, Elevated to the throne of the King of the universe! Marvelous love! inexpressible, incomprehensible love!
