This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1859 edition. Excerpt: ... glory." Paul, who knew more of God than other men, prays still, "that I may know Him." " Our safest eloquence, '5 says Hooker, " concerning Him, is our silence, when we confess without confession. that His glory is inexplicable." QN THY GLORY. 9 And is this the Being to whom I can look up with sweetest confidence, and call "My Father?" Is it this Infinite One, whom " the Heaven of Heavens cannot contain," I can call " My God?" My soul! contemplate the medium through which it is thou canst see the glory of God, and yet live! " No man hath seen God at any time, the only-begotten Son, who is in the bosom of the Father, He hath declared Him." He, who dwells in light inaccessible, comes forth from the pavilion of His glory in the person of " Immanuel, God with us." In Christ, " the Image of the invisible God," the creature--ay, sinners--can gaze unconsumed on the lustres of Deity! Header! be it thine to glorify Him. Seek thus to fulfil the great design of thy being. Let all thy words and ways, thine actions and purposes, thy crosses and losses, redound to His praise. The highest seraph can have no higher or nobler end than this--the glory of the God before whom he casts his crown. But He has a claim on thee, which he has not on the unredeemed angel. "He gave Himself for thee!" This mightiest of all boons which Omnipotence could give, is the guarantee for the bestowment of all lesser necessary blessings, and for the withholding of all unnecessary trials. Whilst thou art called to behold " His glory, the glory as of the only-begotten of the Father," remembei its characteristic; it is not a glory to appal thee by its splendors, but to win and captivate thee by its beauties--it is " full of grace and full of truth." He is thy God in covenant. ..".

I received a 1862 copy of this book which quickly became a daily devotion for my husband and I. The timless truths about Jesus Christ will continue to refresh and renew to any who read. Worth the price whether new or old edition.
