A Baccalaureate Sermon 211

Establishing our faith and hope and life upon God, we
are to see that His self-revelation as recorded in the Bible
is progressive; that human need cries out for the manifesta-
tion of God in Person; that His love is such as to give the
answer in the Incarnate Son, who redeems from sin and
carries human nature to its perfection; that through faith
and obedience Christlikeness may pass into us, and we may
humbly share in that imaging of God which the Father
planned from the beginning.

As miraculous as reasonable, the Divine Champion of
our humanity interprets, saves, fulfills; and He is with us
and walks with us as we move on in our pilgrimage. May
our eyes not be holden; may we follow Him in that life
which will Supernaturalize the earth and be instrumental in
advancing the Divine Kingdom to full victory.

This day is Pentecost, the day on which vast multitudes
in Christendom commemorate the fulfillment by the Resur-
rected and Ascended Lord of His promise to send power
to His Apostles for their appointed work. May power
from on high also be ours; an inspiration to each in his
individual sphere from the indwelling God; an inner light
to assure us of the presence of Christ; a strength within
to meet our tasks acceptably to God. May we be empow-
ered to witness and to work here, whatever the duty, so
as to build for the Kingdom of the Risen Lord; and when
the day here is finished, may there still be place for us and
work appointed in other mansions of the Father’s house.
