As we look upon this bow, the seal and sign of God′s promise to man, that the tempest of His wrath should no more desolate our world by the waters of a flood, we contemplate that other than finite eyes are looking upon this glorious sight. Angels rejoice as they gaze upon this precious token of God′s love to man. The world′s Redeemer looks upon it; for it was through His instrumentality that this bow was made to appear in the heavens, as a token or covenant of promise to man. God Himself looks upon the bow in the clouds, and remembers His everlasting covenant between Himself and man.... The bow represents Christ′s love which encircles the earth, and reaches unto the highest heavens, connecting men with God, and linking earth with heaven. (OHC 314.3) MC VC
