Who can count the dust of Jacob, Genesis 13:15, and the number of the fourth part of Israel? Even the fourth part of the nation, in allusion to the four divisions of the camp, was beyond ordinary computation. Let me die the death of the righteous, and let my last end be like his! Since God was present with His people and sanctified them with the righteousness which He desires, therefore it was a privilege to belong to this people and to share also in the final blessing which the Lord held out before them. He desired the full, perfect, and indestructible salvation which the Lord had promised to those who would be faithful to Him till the end. The same statements apply to the congregation of the New Testament; for all those who accept Jesus Christ as their Savior in true faith and remain faithful to Him until He calls them home, will rejoice at the coming of the end, for that means eternal salvation.
