What They Said

“The glory of Christ’s exaltation cannot be seen or understood in this world except by faith fixing itself on divine revelation.  We cannot behold the glory of Christ by conjuring up pictures of Him in the mind and by trying to form the shape of a person in heaven in our imaginations.  The way to behold the glory of Christ is by the steady exercise of faith on the revelation of this glory of Christ given to us in Scripture.  It is our duty, therefore, constantly to mediate on the glory of Christ.  This will fill us with a joy which will,  in turn, move us to meditate on His glory more and more.”
