THE RESURRECTION.

WHAT shall the prepared body be? We only know that it will be like His glorious body, that could be gravitated and levitated for walking the water, or rising in air at will, and go thru material doors that were shut.
The learned Chinaman who aided Dr. Morrison in translating the Scriptures into Chinese attained to a sublime oriental adoration of the perfect Man. When he came to the passage, "We shall be like Him, for we shall see Him as He is," he said: "I can not write that; it is too high to be true; my countrymen never will believe it. Let me tone it down to, 'When He shall appear I may humbly hope to kiss His feet.'"
But no man can be allowed to tone down the great word of God. We shall be like His glorious body.—Bishop Warren.
