In-Text |
what an all-sufficient Saviour, how able to save to the utmost must he needs be who is God and Man, the Son of God and the Son of Man! And indeed 'tis not enough barely to believe on Christ but there must be such a believing on him as may in some measure be answerable to this his relation; is he God's own Son? at what a rate should we believe? what a faith should we act upon him? what great things should we expect for him and from him? can any thing be too high for our faith when we have the proper, natural Son of God in our eye as its basis and foundation? Saints should have their faith raised not only upon the encouragement of the Promises, but also upon the consideration of Christ's Person as he is so near and dear to God. |
