The Excellency of Christ
Because man is so welded to the world and dotes upon his lust, all the arguments that we can use are most commonly unsuccessful. Therefore I shall add one more upon this sort of motives
drawn from the qualifications of him whom I would fain have you acquainted with… Consider that he is altogether lovely; he's made of love, goodness, and all excellencies…Ask of them that by faith have seen him.
—James Janeway "Heaven upon Earth: Jesus the Best Friend of Man"
What is the substance of the whole Bible? does not almost every chapter speak of God's desire to be reconciled to man? Behold, he calls you. He offers you his Son, a kingdom, a crown. Behold, the Father meets, he makes haste, to meet his returning prodigal.
