The Crucifixion infused into mankind the higher life, the supernatural breathing of God upon the face of man. Thereby it is in the power of all to become what God had intended that they should be. A new human society was formed, the universal Church, born on Calvary, and proceeding like Eve, from the wounded side of the second Adam. Though consisting of sinful erring men, it was yet "a glorious Church, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing" (Eph. v. 27).
Glorify Jesus for this great work; be faithful to Him in order that you may participate in it.
