THE MAN OF PSALM 16

… when you come to Psalm 16 you have a Man who of necessity must go to the right hand of God; He was so divinely perfect, earth could not hold Him. Man was made for earth and earth was good enough for him as so made; but what has come to pass in the ways of God is that a Man has been manifested here on earth whom earth could not contain. He must go to the right hand of God: “at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore” (AV). I allow that Christ went there, too, on the ground of redemption, so that He might carry others with Him to heaven, which could not have been the case had He gone in only on the ground of His personal perfection. He came from heaven and went back to heaven – that is the Man of Psalm 16.
