As Warner/Teasely (1918) hymn indicates: the Scriptural sources here are two: Hebrews and Revelations.
Let's recall that among the unpublications left by Grice there was one entitled: "From Genesis to Revelations: new discourse on metaphysics"
Cfr. this with Arthur S. Peake's old book -- "Christianity: Its Nature and Its Truth"
"There can, indeed, be no doubt that from
some points of view the prospect thus held
out to us is an alluring one. To soar away
from the dreary earth into the rare atmosphere of
beautiful ideas, to reach that peaceful region
where we are no longer in the rough and tumble
of historical controversy, to have gone where
critics cease from troubling, that
would be a delightful experience. How exhilarating
to be born upward on the bold unfettered wing
of pure speculation till we have scaled
the cloudy ramparts and found ourselves at
home in the city of eternal truth!"
(p. 140).
