“ The true ratification of the covenant was not with the blood of animals. At the original " cutting of the covenant " with Abraham there were indeed animal sacrifices, and in connection with the Sinaitic covenant of the law we read that after Moses had spoken every precept to the people " he took the blood of calves and of goats, with water and scarlet wool and hyssop, and sprinkled both the book and all the people, saying, This is the blood of the covenant which God hath enjoined unto you " ”

“ For God is Judge Himself." This is a solemn announcement of varying import. To God's people it is full of comfort, for it reminds them of the challenge, " Who shall lay anything to the charge of God's elect ? ”

“ It is God who justifieth" ; while to the godless it is a statement full of terror, for it proclaims the fact that He, who is about to sit in judgment, is Elohim the searcher of hearts, from whom nothing can be hid ; whose knowledge is infinite, whose righteousness is inflexible, and whose vengeance is terrible. This first section, with the prologue of the first four verses, which contain a summary of the great truths in rela- tion to the Church, Israel, and the nations, more fully developed in the whole psalm, appropriately ends with a " Selah." ”

“ The earth being still the place of imperfection and sin the scene of death and judgment the Church is to be taken out of it. We shall meet Him in the air. When Christ descends the Church ascends. The earth's atmosphere is about two hundred miles in height room enough for the Church to meet Christ in it. I suppose the rapture of the Church will resemble somewhat the ascension of Jesus after His resurrection. ”

“ And this, be it noted, is the chief and primary feature of all true saintship, for, in the verse in our psalm God's people are so called, not because of their con- dition, but on account of their relation to Him. Every one of the redeemed is constituted a " saint " by reason of the blood-mark upon him, and then sent forth in the power of God's Spirit to live in accordance with his new state. ”

“ He shall call to the heavens above, and to the eajlh, that He may judge His people.
" Gather My saints unto Me ; those that have made a covenant with Me by sacrifice.
" And the heavens shall declare His righteousness ; for God is Judge Himself. ”

“ In this way they pledged their lives to the fulfilment of the contract and called down the fate of the slain sacrifices on themselves in case of unfaithfulness. But note the expression, " My covenant." Ah, in that word " My," lies the safety and blessedness of God's redeemed people, for, when God made promise to Abraham, in which promise are con- tained the blessings of the gospel to all who are of faith 1 H. Grattan Guinness.
8o THE SILENCE OF GOD
(Gal. iii. 8 ; Rom. iv. 9-25) , and ratified the promise by covenant oath, " He sware by Himself" (Heb. vi. 13-20) . ”
