The assemblage of graces found only in Jesus''

Back to THE LOVINGNESS OF JESUS 2

---

 from Spurgeon's "How God Condemned Sin" Rom. 8:3

Such are the assemblage of graces found only in 
Jesus, each sparkling with peerless lustre, and all 
blending with such exquisite gracefulness that we 
are at once moved with awe and touched with love 
as we contemplate Him.

Such majesty, yet such meekness in His demeanour.

Such solemnity, yet such tenderness in His speech.

So impartial in judgment, yet so forgiving in temper.

So full of zeal, yet so equally full of patience.

So keen to detect malice, yet so slow to resent it.

Such a wise mentor, yet such a gentle sympathizing friend.

Jesus was perfectly.... 
innocent, 
harmless, 
gentle, 
meek, 
loving, 
tender.

All His words were love.

All His actions were kindness.

We would never commit a sin, if we would but first 
say to ourselves, "Would Jesus have done this?"
