! people hayes long beenI waiting and
I praying. THY Kingdom come; thy will

sans Kingdom for which the Jews SO
long waited and are still waitinga Our
text relates. not to the spiritual part Of
tho Kingdom, which the Gospel Church
Isl called to share. but to- the earthly
part OF, the Kingdom, which belongs to
the natural seed OF Abraham. A
|: great mistake has, been made by many
of, us in the past, In that we have not
dlscerned aud acknowledged the two
| 1sraels, spiritual and natural, and the
separate rewards and blessings appor-
toned to these by the Divine promises
Of the, Scriptures. Both are to be used
7 Of God in fulfilling the promise made
to, Abraham-in blessing all the fami-
lies Of the earth.
After the completion of Messiah, Head
and Members. on the plane of glory,
the New Covenant will be inaugurated
4 With Israel, as the Scriptures distinct
ly teach Jeremiah xxi. 31,S4. Our
text therefore, waits for Its accom-.
plishment, until the last member Of the
elect Church Of Christ shall have pass

Israel the Earthly Representative.
In the symbolic language Of the
Scriptures mountain is always SYM
bollcal. Of Kingdom. Hence the
mountain of the Lords house means
the Kingdom Of God and that, royal
house or family recognized by him,
For instance. we read that David sat
upon the throne of the Kingdom Of
the Lord and that God made Gov.
enant with him, .'even the. sure mer-
cies Of David"-viz., that none but his
