They that be wise shall shine...

With reference to Daniel 12:3—The Bright and the Morning Star, then, the Eternal Spirit glorified in Jesus, promises to give the morning star to him that overcomes. In other words, that he shall become a glorified constituent of the "One Body," when it is adopted at the manifestation of the Sons of Deity (Rom. viii. 19-24). He will, then, be a star pertaining to the Millennial Dawn -- a morning star; for "they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness, as the stars le-olahm wah-ed, IN THE OLAHM AND BEYOND;" or, as Jesus said, "Then shall the righteous shine forth as the sun IN THE KINGDOM OF THEIR FATHER;" which belongs to "the Olahm and beyond" (Dan. xii. 3; Matt. xiii. 43). The redeemed will then be, in the aggregate, a Cloud of Morning Stars, "equal to the angels," themselves "the Morning Stars that sang together, and the Sons of Deity that shouted for joy," when the corner-stone of earth's foundation was laid by the Eternal (Job xxxviii. 7). We look for the Bright and Morning Star from heaven, that he may "change our vile body, and fashion it like unto his glorious body" (Phil. iii. 21); and we know that "we are now the Sons of Deity, and that when he shall appear we shall be like him" (1 John iii. 2). This is equivalent to saying we shall be Morning Stars -- stars that come forth as dew from the womb of the morning, shining in all the glory of the resurrection state (1 Cor. xv. 41; Psal. cx. 3).
