period of waiting for the coming of the promised Spirit, unremittingly in the Temple, praising God and blessing him for the “splendid conclusion of the hallowed sacrifice offered by the Redeemer of the World to propitiate the anger of an offending deity.” “The eternal son of God has humbled himself to be born of a woman, had endured the pains and afflictions incident to human nature, had suffered a cruel and ignominious death upon the cross and descended into the place of departed spirits; but on the third day, had
burst the bands of death, triumphed over the grave, and in due time, ascended with triumphant majesty to Heaven, where he now sits at the right hand of our heavenly father, a mediator and intercessor for all those that have faith in him.” To be continued in the August issue Sir Knight Kenneth C. Jack is a member of Strathearn Preceptory & Priory, 34, Crieff; the District Grand Priory of Tay Valley; The Great Priory of Scotland. He can be reached at kenneth.jack4@icloud.com.
