The all sufficiency of Christ''

Back to THE LOVINGNESS OF JESUS 2


(Octavius Winslow, "It Is Well" 1860)

"From the fullness of His grace we have all 
received one blessing after another." John 1:16

Look away from . . .
  your sins, 
  your backsliding,
  your unfruitfulness, 
  your infirmities, 
  your shortcomings, 
  and your flaws.

Look to Christ
, and get a closer, 
clearer, fuller view of the cross. 

The all sufficiency of Christ meets your case. 

Sweet truth! 

I ask not how peculiar, how aggravated, how 
desperate, how discouraging, the state of your 
soul may be. I hesitate not to affirm that such 
is Christ, such His love, His compassion, His 
fullness, His power. Your condition of soul 
comes within the scope of His sufficiency. 

Christ's merit meets your demerit.
 
Christ's unchangeableness 
meets your backsliding.

Christ's grace meets your corruptions.

Christ's blood meets your guiltiness.

Christ's fullness meets your emptiness.

Christ's power meets your impossibilities.

Christ's compassion meets your misery.

Christ's sympathy meets your sorrow.

Christ's intercession covers all 
your circumstances and needs.

"From the fullness of His grace we have all 
received one blessing after another." John 1:16
