100:7.12 Jesus was [[consistently]] cheerful, notwithstanding he sometimes drank deeply of the cup of [[human]] [[sorrow]]. He fearlessly faced the [[realities]] of [[existence]], yet was he filled with [[enthusiasm]] for the [[gospel]] of [[the kingdom]]. But he [[controlled]] his [[enthusiasm]]; it never controlled him. He was unreservedly [[dedicated]] to "the Father's business."[http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Gospel_of_Luke#Chapter_2] This [[divine]] [[enthusiasm]] led his unspiritual brethren to think he was beside himself, but the onlooking [[universe]] appraised him as the [[model]] of [[sanity]] and the [[pattern]] of [[supreme]] [[mortal]] [[devotion]] to the high [[standards]] of [[spiritual]] living. And his [[controlled]] [[enthusiasm]] was [[contagious]]; his associates were constrained to [[share]] his [[divine]] [[optimism]].

100:7.13 This man of [[Galilee]] was not a man of [[sorrows]]; he was a soul of [[gladness]]. Always was he saying, "Rejoice and be exceedingly glad."[http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Gospel_of_Matthew#Chapter_5] But when [[duty]] required, he was willing to walk [[courageously]] through the "valley of the shadow of death."[http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Book_of_Psalms#Psalm_23] He was gladsome but at the same time [[humble]].

100:7.14 His [[courage]] was equaled only by his [[patience]]. When pressed to [[act]] prematurely, he would only reply, "My hour has not yet come."[http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Gospel_of_John#Chapter_2] He was never in a hurry; his [[composure]] was [[sublime]]. But he was often indignant at [[evil]], intolerant of [[sin]]. He was often mightily moved to [[resist]] that which was inimical to the [[welfare]] of his [[children]] on [[earth]]. But his indignation against sin never led to [[anger]] at the [[sinner]].

100:7.17 [[Jesus]] was great because he was [[good]], and yet he fraternized with the little [[children]]. He was [[gentle]] and unassuming in his [[personal]] life, and yet he was the [[perfected]] man of a [[universe]]. His associates called him [[the Master|Master]] unbidden.

100:7.18 [[Jesus]] was the [[perfectly]] [[unified]] [[human]] [[personality]]. And today, as in [[Galilee]], he continues to [[unify]] [[mortal]] [[experience]] and to [[co-ordinate]] human endeavors. He [[unifies]] life, [[ennobles]] [[character]], and [[simplifies]] [[experience]]. He enters the [[human]] [[mind]] to elevate, [[transform]], and [[transfigure]] it. It is [[literally]] true: "If any man has Christ Jesus within him, he is a new creature; old things are passing away; behold, all things are becoming new."[http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=2nd_Letter_of_Paul_to_the_Corinthians#2nd_Letter_of_Paul_to_the_Corinthians.2C_V]
