The further end, and His encouraging
words, we're to stimulate Jacob TO
faithfulness and appreciation of this
great Promise as worth much more
than il had cost The dream had its
intended effect. Jacob was encouraged
throughout the remainder of his life.
This lesson applies to Christians
also. With the fuller light of the
Apostolic teaching and the guidance
OF the Holy Spirit, we understand that
before Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and the
Holy Prophets OF the past can bless
the world, another work must be
done. That other work will be done
by our Lord Jesus. The death OF the
Lamb Of God constituted the entire
foundation for the complete outwork-
ing OF Gods Plan for mankind.

Abraham II this ladder OF COM
munion came down to Jacob, still
more does IL come down to and center
in The Christ. of which Jesus is the
/ Head, and the Church His members.
When Jacob awakened he felt
over -whelmed. To have the Almighty
thus indicate His blessing and ap-
proyal. and assure him of His pro-
/ tecting care for the future, seemed
wonderful to the friendless man. He
said Surely this place may be called
/ Gods House and the Gate OF
Heaveni" And ever Since, the
Church has delighted to be known as
the House of God-Bethel BY and
by as the great Temple of God com
posed of living stones, Jesus Himself
being the Chief Corner Stone, this
Bethel will be the Gate or Heaven,
through which will come TO mankind
all the glorious things which God
has promised.
Jacob set his stone pillow up as q
monument and poured oil upon il, as
signifying its sacredness to God. His
example has been initiated by the
Egyptians, in setting up great
columns pointing heavenward and by
the Babylonian steeples, and Chris
tian church spires. All of these pre-
figure the fact that there is TO be a
ladder, a communication between
earth and Heaven. That ladder will
be the Messianic Kingdom
