The Beauty Of Holiness Is That Which

The Streams Of Religion Run Deep Or Shallow, According As The Banks Of The Sabbath Are Kept Up Or Neglected.

God Cannot Be Represented By An Image. We Ought Not To Think That The Godhead Is Like Unto Gold, Or Silver, Or Stone, Graven By Art And Man's Device. We Wrong God, And Put An Affront Upon Him, If We Think So. God Honoured Man In Making His Soul After His Own Likeness; But Man Dishonours God If He Makes Him After The Likeness Of His Body. The Godhead Is Spiritual, Infinite, Immaterial, Incomprehensible, And Therefore It Is A Very False And Unjust Conception Which An Image Gives Us Of God.

For Love Is Of God. He Is The Fountain, Author, Parent, And Commander Of Love; It Is The Sum Of His Law And Gospel.

No Creature Hath The Like Resemblance To The Divine Nature, As Light Hath. He Doth Not Only Dwell In Light, But He Is Light. Light Is A Pure, Bright, Clear, Spiritual, Unmixed Substance. God Is Infinitely So.

The First Lesson In Christ's School Is Self-denial.
