“It is possible that our race may be an accident, in a meaningless universe, living its brief life uncared for, on this dark, cooling star: but even so - and all the more - what marvelous creatures we are! What fairy story, what tale from the Arabian Nights of the jinns, is a hundredth part as wonderful as this true fairy story of simians! It is so much more heartening, too, than the tales we invent. A universe capable of giving birth to many such accidents is - blind or not - a good world to live in, a promising universe. . . . We once thought we lived on God's footstool, it may be a throne.” WorldLifeGivingMayStoriesNightUniverseStarsDarkRaceWonderfulBirthCreaturesCapableBlindAccidentsTalesFairyMeaninglessThronesMarvelousGiving BirthCoolingArabianFairy StoriesJinnArabian NightsBrief Life Author:Clarence Day

“Christ's divinity accounts for His exaltation to the right hand of God, justifies the worship of angels and the confidence of mankind. It makes clear His right to the throne of the universe, and enables the mind to understand why He is exalted in providence, in grace, and in judgment. It is the unifying truth that harmonizes all other teachings of Christianity, and renders the entire system symmetrical and complete.” MindHandsUniverseChristChristianityClearGraceTeachingMankindJudgmentWorshipAngelAccountsDivinityJustifyProvidenceThronesExaltedHands Of GodExaltationUnifyingSymmetrical Author:George C.

“Earthly providence is a travesty of justice on any other theory than that it is a preliminary stage, which is to be followed by rectifications. Either there must be a future, or consummate injustice sits upon the throne of the universe.

“In His discourses, His miracles, His parables, His sufferings, His resurrection, He gradually raises the pedestal of His humanity before the world, but under a cover, until the shaft reaches from the grave to the heavens, whenHe lifts the curtain, and displays the figure of a man on a throne, for the worship of the universe; and clothing His church with His own power, He authorizes it to baptize and to preach remission of sins in His own name.” MenWorldSufferingHumanityUniverseNamesHeavenChurchSinFiguresWorshipMiracleRaisesGravesLiftsClothingsResurrectionDisplayThronesDiscourseCurtainsPedestalParablesRemission Author:Edward Thomson
“If there be one attribute of the Deity which astonishes me more than another, it is the attribute of patience. The Great Soul that sits on the throne of the universe is not, never was, and never will be, in a hurry. In the realm of nature, every thing has been wrought out in the august consciousness of infinite leisure; and I bless God for that geology which gives me a key to the patience in which the creative process was effected.” IfsGivingHas BeensSoulUniverseProcessConsciousnessCreativeKeysGive MeInfiniteRealmsBlessAttributesLeisureCreative ProcessThronesDeitiesAugustGeologyGreat Souls Author:J.
