37. It shall be established for ever as the moon. The kingdom may wax and wane to mortal eyes, but it will still abide as
long as the moon walks in her silver beauty. And as a faithful witness in heaven. The most stable part of the universe is selected as a type of
Messiah’s kingdom, and both sun and moon are made to be symbols of its long
endurance. Whatever else there is in the sky which faithfully witnesses to the
unbending course of nature is also called upon to be a sign of the Lord’s
truth. When heaven and earth witness, and the Lord himself swears, there
remains no excuse for doubting, and faith joyfully reposes in confident
expectation.
