me their own.
Their bodies shall be like Christ's own glorious body, which, when
transfigured on Tabor, shone as the sun, and was white as the light.
They shall be satisfied, when they awake, with the Divine likeness.[246]
"They shall shine as the brightness of the firmament, and as the stars
for ever and ever."[247] They shall sit down with Christ upon His
throne, and shall be rulers over cities. "They are as the angels of God
in heaven."[248] In the many mansions of the Father's house there will
be a place for every saint. Each will be rewarded according to his
works. Some are to be raised to higher glory than others--some are to
have authority over ten cities, and some are to bear rule over five--but
all the saints will be happy in the eternal enjoyment of God's favour,
which is life; and of His loving kindness, which is better than life.

APPENDIX

The, following arrangement is from Professor Lumby's _History of the
Creeds_. It shows that the portions of the Apostolic Creed which do
not appear in the earlier forms are very few. Irenaeus omits the
conception by the Holy Ghost, while Tertullian inserts it. Neither Creed
contains the first part of the fifth article, and in both the ninth and
tenth are wanting. With these exceptions the substance of the Apostles'
Creed was in circulation as early as A.D. 180.
