These, then, are the things which cannot be shaken; which we may reduce to three heads. First, The growth of righteousness, peace, and joy in the saints, being filled with light and love from the special presence of Christ; with a wonderful increase of the number of them, multitudes of the elect being to be born in those days, the residue of the Jews and fulness of the Gentiles meeting in one fold, and there "dwelleth righteousness." Secondly, The administration of gospel ordinances, in power and purity, according to the appointment and unto the acceptation of the Lord Jesus. Thirdly, The glorious and visible manifestation of those administrations in the eyes of all the world, in peace and quietness, — none making afraid or hurting in the whole mountain of the Lord.
John Owen — The Shaking and Translating of Heaven and Earth (Sermon on Heb. 12:27)
