of Christ was the testimony of the Prince of martyrs. Nowhere else does truth utter her voice with such distinctness, such fullness and emphasis. She spoke with power in the death of Prophets under the law; in the death of Stephen, and in the triumphs of Paul, under the axe of Nero; but as she never spake before, she speaks from Calvary. Were an angel to descend from heaven to become the teacher of men, his instructions might well be listened to with eagerness. But the Cross is the teacher of angels.
