CHRIST the WORD of GOD (Rev 19:13): The Lord Jesus Christ dominates the Scriptures as the sun dominates our solar system. As the Eternal Son, He acts through creation and history. As the virgin’s Son, He joins the stream of our race, the tributary destined to unite the currents of Jew and Gentile, and to divide our river into two courses: one flowing with ever-increasing depth to the ocean of everlasting love; the other flowing darkly, a torrent of unbelief and enmity, to be swallowed up at last in the Saharan sands of the second death. No article, no book, no library, no university can contain the infinite treasure of the revelation of the Son of God. He is the master Theme of prophecy; He is the Source of the music of the Psalms; He is the Judge, administering the holy, righteous law; He is the Hero of the Gospels; He is the Authority of the Acts; He is the Subject of the Epistles; He is the enthroned Lamb and glorious Lord of the Revelation. —A.C.
