Finishing The Work
"What is
His work? The work which the Father gave Him to do; the work covenanted from
before the world began; the work that shall crown Him with glory and honor for
ever and ever; the work of fulfilling, of magnifying, and of honoring the holy
law of God; the work of satisfying and of sheathing the sword of inflexible
justice in His own heart; the work of vanquishing the powers of darkness,
bruising the old serpent’s head, spoiling principalities and powers, taking away
the sting of death, and removing the curse forever from all the election of
grace. That is the work of God; that is the work of Christ, and it is freely
given to the believer."
-preacher Joseph Irons, 1848 A.D.
