Sermon Quote from John Owen
“One of the greatest privileges the believer has, both in this world and for eternity, is to behold the glory of Christ.”
“No man shall ever behold the glory of Christ by sight in heaven who does not, in some measure, behold it by faith in this world.”
“On Christ’s glory I would fix my thoughts and desires, and the more I see of the glory of Christ, the more the painted beauties of this world will wither in my eyes and I will be more and more crucified to this world.”
“A spiritual sight of Christ will fill the heart with love for him. So, if any one does not love Christ that person has never seen Christ and does not know him at all. When we fall in love with someone we often think about them. So, when we fall in love with Christ we will be constantly thinking about him. And where a person is not filled with thoughts of Christ, that person only deceives himself if he claims to have received him as Saviour.”
(John Owen – The Glory of Christ)
