They were risen dead, such as you and I shall be some day. The miracle consisted in their rising then and there. Moreover, did not the beggar recognize Abraham? and—Well, one might go through the Bible finding it full of this promise in hints or assertions, in parables or visions. We are heirs of God, joint heirs with Christ—having suffered with Him, we shall be glorified together. Christ himself has said many sure things—I will come and receive you, that where I am, there ye may be, I will that they be with me where I am. Using, too, the very type of Godhead to signify the eternal nearness and eternal love of just such as you and Roy, as John and me, he prays—Holy Father, keep them whom Thou hast given me, that they may be one as we are.
