Continual Burnt Offering: Daily Meditations, May 24 (4:2)
“Unto you that fear My name shall the Sun of Righteousness arise with healing in His wings; and ye shall go forth, and grow up as calves of the stall”— Mal. 4:2.
THE Old Testament closes with the prophecy of the day of the Lord and the coming of the Sun of Righteousness. The New Testament ends with the promise of the Morning Star. Both refer to our Lord Jesus, but the two aspects of His second advent are thus presented. He will return for His Bride, the Church, as the Morning Star. He will be manifested for the deliverance of Israel and the blessing of the world as the glorious Sun of Righteousness. The darker the night becomes the nearer must be the hour of the fulfilment of His pledge to come again. This blessed event is the hope of the Church, the hope of Israel and the hope of the world.
