31. They shall come. Sovereign grace will bring
out from among men the blood-bought ones. Nothing will thwart the divine
purpose. In this the dying Saviour finds a sacred satisfaction. And shalldeclare his righteousness unto a people that shall be born. None of the
people brought to God by the irresistible attractions of the cross will be
dumb; they will be able to tell out the righteousness of the Lord, so that
future generations know the truth. Fathers will teach their sons, who will hand
it down to their children; the burden of the story always being that he hathdone this, or, that “It is
finished.” Salvation’s glorious work is done, there is peace on earth, and glory
in the highest.
