identify Him with Mohammed of the past. The FreeMasons also expect the same glorious personage and, intheir traditions, identify Him with Hiram Abiff, the greatMaster Mason. This same great Messiah, Michael, theArchangel, the antitypical Melchizedek, Priest as well asKing, we identify as "the Man Jesus Christ, who gaveHimself a Ransom-Price for all, to be testified in duetime."--I Tim. 2:6.But when the Great King shall appear in His Gloryand establish His Kingdom with Israel, He will be, aspromised by the Prophets, "The desire of all nations."(Hag. 2:7.) Then all the blinded eyes shall be openedand all the deaf ears shall be unstopped. (Isa. 35:5.)Then, who He is, and how He should be identified withAbraham's Seed and David's line, will be clearly knownto all in Heaven and all on earth. Not now, but whenthe King shall reign in righteousness, all shall fully understandthe significance of Zechariah's prophecy (12:7-10)and of Psa. 22:16.

We should remember that the Kingdomas it will be established in the beginning of theMillennial Age will consist of the New Jerusalem--thatis, the glorified Church, of which Christ is the Head.(Rev. 21:1-8.) During the thousand years the world willbe coming into accord with this arrangement. For allsuch as will come into harmony there will be a blessedarrangement by which they will be protected from anypenalty for imperfections. We may reasonably supposethat after perfection is reached there will be no moreaccidents, just as we have reason to suppose that in heaventhere is no necessity for surgeons, doctors, ambulances,etc. "Nothing shall hurt or destroy in all God's holymountain [Kingdom]." (Isa. 11:9.) God's will shallbe done on earth as it is done in heaven. We read thatthere shall be no more sighing and no more crying and no
