His resurrection is symbolic of the change that passes on the risen life of spirit – in the world but not of it; moving in it as a visitor who conforms but does not belong to it. The law of Love animated Him. Whenever He appeared, whatever He did, this was the motive. The records left to us, both meagre and erroneous as they are, are yet sufficient to show this. He fulfilled the law of love and then ascended to His own proper sphere – no longer seen but felt – no longer a personal presence but an effluence and influence of grace.
