3. It is uphill work for the creature to reach the Creator. Where is the
mighty climber who can scale the towering heights ? Whose eye shall see the
King in his beauty and dwell in his palace? God has made all, but he will not
save all; there is a chosen company who shall have the singular honor of
dwelling with him in his high abode. These choice spirits desire to commune
with God, and their wish will be granted. The solemn inquiry of the text is
repeated in another form. Who shall be able to stand or continue there?
He casts away the wicked; who then can abide in his house? Certainly none may
commune with God upon the footing of the law, but grace can make us fit to
behold the vision of the divine presence. With careful self-examination let us
enquire, “Is it I?”
