Those who wait for the Bridegroom's coming are to say to the people, "Behold your God."

At this time a message from God is to be proclaimed, a message
illuminating in its influence and saving in its power.  His character is
to be made known.  Into the darkness of the world is to be shed the
light of His glory, the light of His goodness, mercy, and truth.

This is the work outlined by the prophet Isaiah in the words, "O
Jerusalem, that bringest good tidings, lift up thy voice with strength;
lift it up, be not afraid; say unto the cities of Judah, Behold your
God!  Behold, the Lord God will come with strong hand, and His arm shall
rule for Him; behold, His reward is with Him, and His work before Him."
Isa. 40:9,10.

Those who wait for the Bridegroom's coming are to say to the people,
"Behold your God."  The last rays of merciful light, the last message of
mercy to be given to the world, is a revelation of His character of
love.  The children of God are to manifest His glory.  In their own life
and character they are to reveal what the grace of God has done for
them.
