Excerpt from The Final Passover, Vol. 2: A Series of Meditations Upon the Passion of Our Lord Jesus Christ; The Upper Chamber, Part II The discourses of our Lord and His great High-priestly prayer, given to us in St. John xv. - xvii., are so peculiar in their nature that they may well be treated somewhat differently from the rest of the narrative. Other scriptural teachings respecting the Passion do, indeed, contain mysteries which the human mind cannot fathom; but these three chapters stand by themselves, the utterance of the Eternal Word, manifestly inexhaustible in Divine power and scope in their applications, both individual and collective. St. John seems to set them apart, as we might in modern times set apart some special subject, removing it from the body of the work to form a separate section or appendix. This may perhaps help us to a conjecture as to the time at which the words were originally spoken. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Already ye are clean because of the word which I have spoken unto you.--St . John xv. 2, 3. 1. The Uncircumcised Tree. 'Every branch that beareth fruit, My Father purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit.' The pruning of the vine is spoken as a purging. The natural pride of the plant has to be overcome. It must bear the knife of mortification. Thus shall it become 'clean.' This purification seems to refer to the Levitieal law, by which a tree was considered for three years to be uncircumeised; then in the fourth year it was to be given for Divine rejoicing, and in the fifth year the people might eat the fruit thereof (Lev. xix. 23). The three years have reference to the three days of Christ's grave. What is risen with Christ becomes fruitful to God. Every branch, thereforo, in Christ needs to share His crucifixion, in order to have the fellowship of His risen glory. Fruitfulness requires the knife for its proper development as well as the virtue of the sap. So it is not enough for us to have the grace of Christ unless we feel the disciplinary power of His Cross. Indeed, tho pruner of the vine marks the points at VOL. ii. Pt. n. c which ho would have tho bunches of grapes. So God, by the sufferings of holy discipline, brings out in each one of His people those special fruits of holiness with which He desires to enrich His Church. Pruning away tho natural vivacity is thus, as it were, the purifying of the plant. We must always be on our watch not to mistake natural exuberance for spiritual fruitfulness. That which has the taint of pride is unclean. No natural excellence as such can find its recognition in tho kingdom of...

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.
