Excerpt from The Question of Ages: Or Outlines of Testimony in Relation to Life, Death, and Immortality The eighth Psalm is a prophecy concerning "The Christ." In it, David personates the Lord Jesus; who is, therein, shown to stand as man - "the second man" - at the head of all terrestrial things. As standing on the earth, and addressing Jehovah, the Father, he expresses the sentiments of perfect humility and adoring praise - a devout admiration of the infinite greatness, and the condescension of God: "When I consider thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, the moon and the stars which thou hast ordained; What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him?" Ps. 8: 3, 4. The question, What is man? - as found in the psalm, is intended to denote the humility and admiration now described; but the form of words used will serve to denote a question of ages, among the speculative classes of mankind. Our present purpose is to show, that to this question, men have offered a reply, in the way of ecclesiastical teaching; and God has supplied an answer, in the Scriptures of truth. Our immediate concern is with the reply of wise and prudent men. From the various schools of ecclesiastical tuition, a reply has come forth, the substance of which may be thus condensed:- "Man is an immortal being - mortal, as to his body, but immortal in his soul. The soul of man is allied to angels - is allied to God. The soul of man is an immortal principle to which consciousness always attaches.
