I can tell him…I’ve told him for the last few months —whether I’ve persuaded him or not, I do not know—he has already been born from above. When the angel of the Lord stood before him and tried to persuade him that he was born, he denied it. He was taking the literal fact of this birth as against the spiritual birth. He is exercising a power he will exercise in the not distant future. He’s young, just turned forty. Well, what is forty against three score and ten? So in the not distant future, he will be exercising this power in an entirely new age, a new age all together.467 ¶13
