Christ's Compassion for the Tempted

0

As the good samaritan first had compassion on the wounded man–there was sympathy and then succour–so when we are wounded by the red dragon, Christ is first touched with compassion, and then he pours in wine and oil.. Our Lord Jesus know what it is to be tempted, therefore he is ready to succour such as are tempted.
—Thomas Watson "Practical divinity"
