boundless scope the forgiveness of "all trespasses"; it reaches down to the depths of sin,
and places the saved "far above" in the holiest of all; it points the saved sinner away from
self unto Him "who hath made us sufficient" for such an inheritance; it shuts the believer
up to the Lord of glory, "in whom are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge." It
enjoins no ritual, no observance, no ceremony of any kind whatsoever. These have all,
divine and human, been nailed to, and cancelled by, the cross of Christ. Our endeavour is
now to be directed to keeping (not making) the unity of Spirit. There faction ends; there
peace rules; there is found no confidence in the flesh; there is a blessed condition of
absolute independence of all else except the Lord. Once again we repeat,
"Ye see your calling, brethren."
"Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us
with all spiritual blessings in the heavenly holiest of all."
