“We Would See Jesus”
No; We Would See Him as He Is
We would see Him “that liveth,” though once dead, yet now “alive forevermore, Amen,” and who has “the keys of hell and of death.” We would see Him as the disciples saw Him,—“His face did shine as the sun,” “and His raiment became shining,” “white as the light,” “exceeding white as snow, so that no fuller on earth can white them.” We would see Him as Stephen saw Him,—“in glory, standing on the right hand of God.” We would see Him as Paul saw Him,—shining in light “above the brightness of the sun.” We would see Him as John saw Him;—“His head and His hairs white like wool, as white as snow; and His eyes as a flame of fire; and His feet like unto fine brass, as if they burned in a furnace; and His voice as the sound of many waters;” “and His countenance as the sun shineth in his strength.” We would see Him as Isaiah saw Him,—“sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up,” and the train of His glory filling the heavenly temple, about Him standing the bright seraphim shading their glorious faces from His ineffable glory, and crying one unto another, “Holy, holy, holy, is the Lord of hosts; the whole earth is full of His glory.” Isaiah 6:1-4 with John 12:41.
