"Christ has taken our nature into heaven to represent us, and has left us on earth with his nature to represent him." - John Newton

We are engaged in a good cause, fight under a good Captain, the victory is sure beforehand, and the prize is a crown — a crown of eternal life.

From the time we know the Lord, and are bound to him by the cords of love and gratitude — the two chief points we should have in our view, I apprehend, are, to maintain communion with him in our own souls, and to glorify him in the sight of men.

How unspeakably wonderful to know that all our concerns are held in hands that bled for us.
