In the Jewish temple & tabernacle there burned a lamp, a light of sacrifice that never went out. Day & night, summer & winter, it shed its soft & mystic glow within the holy place.
In the temple of the life of our Lord & Savior Jesus
Christ there was a lamp, a light that never went out. The oil that supplied it
was never exhausted. No scorn, no hostility, no hatred could ever quench it. It
was the light of love.
"Having loved his own ... he loved them unto the
end." (John 13:1.)
