Yes, Brethren!
We have the message of Christ, it was to not give in, not despair, only hope, cherish, love - it is His Holy Spirit, that completes the message of the Cross for another generation, and from the Cross, we can see it all come to pass. That is the will of the Son, that it all be known, from within the Heart of God, as steadily and as assuredly as men come and go, how ever high or low the angels reach, how ever tightly the spirits and ministers or loosely they sound, whatever climbs whatever falls Jesus has won it all - only do not give up the Cross, do not give up the Cross for anything. Some will suffer, some will soar, some will render their best, in all these things are the treasures of Heaven, that only want to know one thing: "Is your Cross steady, is it sure? Have you kept it? Have you endured it, for all that it offers? As much as wins Christ to you again, as much as unites Him with God in you? Have you kept that?"
This is the measure of those that have become martyrs and saints, have you kept the Cross? Through the Tribulation, have you kept the Cross? Through the Lake of Fire, have you kept the Cross? Are you tempted less and less, have you kept the Cross? Are you speaking with the Father, have you kept the Cross?
God will set fire to it all, but the Cross will not burn; God will provoke fury, but the Cross will not burn; God will bring the whole world low, but the Cross will not burn - Lord, deliver us, the Cross "yes, we have it", even so Holy Spirit come quickly.
We are in pain, for our brothers, you are soft, your Bride is tender, we hardly know what we've suffered or what for, where you are going, what you've become - the Revelation was promised, but with it agony and travail - Lord it seems like the clouds assail us, the rain drowns us, we do not know where we are... but we have the Cross.
Lord bless them all! They are all yours! Hallelujah! Hosanna and Hallelujah!
