The moiety of
mankind that is saved now, or to be saved to the end of time, will not
satisfy Him. No! His divine love embraces the whole race.
What then about the uncounted millions who never heard of Him? What
about the millions that are dying now, and that never heard the music of
His name? Is not every one of them in the divine scheme of salvation?
Their time will come. The Saviour's operations are not limited to one
age. His love is from everlasting to everlasting; and so are the means
at His disposal. In this age we see but the beginning of the outgoings
of His grace. We cannot conceive of Him being satisfied till the last
soul of the human race is redeemed.
I shall not go farther along this line than simply to remind you that it
is written that God will be "all in all." That is a wonderful expression
when we look into it. What does it really mean? Does it not mean that
God will be all in all? That is--He will be everything in everybody. I
take it that this is the real meaning of the words, Everything in
everybody! O mystery of love and power divine!
I apprehend that the significance of the words "all in all" is not fully
appreciated or understood. See, for instance, the way in which the words
are used in that hymn, "That Christ is all in all to me."
The words, "all in all to me" seem to be used as an attempt to emphasize
the force of the sentiment, "all to me.
