It Is Not The Glorious Battlements, The

Labour To Grow Better Under All Your Afflictions, Lest Your Afflictions Grow Worse, Lest God Mingle Them With More Darkness, Bitterness And Terror.

The Beauty Of The Person Of Christ, As Represented In The Scripture, Consists In Things Invisible Unto The Eyes Of Flesh. They Are Such As No Hand Of Man Can Represent Or Shadow. It Is The Eye Of Faith Alone That Can See This King In His Beauty. What Else Can Contemplate On The Untreated Glories Of His Divine Nature? Can The Hand Of Man Represent The Union Of His Natures In The Same Person, Wherein He Is Peculiarly Amiable? What Eye Can Discern The Mutual Communications Of The Properties Of His Different Natures In The Same Person?

The Mortification Of Indwelling Sin Remaining In Our Mortal Bodies, That It May Not Have Life And Power To Bring Forth The Works Or Deeds Of The Flesh Is The Constant Duty Of Believers.

The Love Of God Is Like Himself – Equal, Constant, Not Capable Of Augmentation Or Diminution; Our Love Is Like Ourselves – Unequal, Increasing, Waning, Growing, Declining. His, Like The Sun, Always The Same In Its Light, Though A Cloud May Sometimes Interpose; Ours, As The Moon, Has Its Enlargements And Straightenings.

If Scripture Has More Than One Meaning, It Has No Meaning At All.
