In these and similar instances, however, we have only (so to speak) delegates and representatives from the great celestial army. But on this great Day, “all His holy angels” are to be with Him. Dominions, principalities, powers, are for the time to vacate their thrones to crowd the firmament of judgment. He is to “call to the heavens above, and to the earth, that he may judge his people.” With what delight will those blessed Beings respond to the invitation, “Let us be glad and rejoice, for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready.” If they came, with joyful alacrity, to sustain the adorable Sufferer on the mount of temptation—to wipe the blood-drops from His brow in Gethsemane—to guard His vacant sepulcher, and pronounce the victory of Redemption achieved,--with what gladness will they go forth on His great Coronation-day, with the sound of their trumpets, to gather in His elect form the four winds of Heaven!
