hearing, as, referring to the past, (f) the truth declared to men in the gospel, Rom. 1:17; 1
Cor. 2:10; Gal. 3:23; (g) the Person of Christ to Paul on the way to Damascus, Gal. 1:16;
(h) thoughts before hidden in the heart, Luke 2:35; referring to the future, (i) the coming
in glory of the Lord Jesus, Luke 17:30; (j) the salvation and glory that await the believer,
Rom. 8:18; 1 Pet. 1:5; 5:1; (k) the true value of service, 1 Cor. 3:13; (l) the wrath of God
(at the Cross, against sin, and, at the revelation of the Lord Jesus, against the sinner),
Rom. 1:18; (m) the Lawless One, 2 Thess. 2:3, 6, 8.*¶
