Why are we so apt to be captivated by the gewgaws of the world?''

Back to THE LOVINGNESS OF JESUS 2

---

Why are we so apt to be captivated by the gewgaws of the world — but because we are so faintly impressed with a real sense of the excellence of Jesus?

"Yes, He is altogether lovely! This is my Beloved — and this is my Friend!" Song of Songs 5:16 

(Editor's note: A gewgaw is defined as a showy trifle; a pretty thing of little worth; a toy; a bauble; a splendid plaything, etc.)
