<p>&quot;May I never boast except in <em>the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ</em>, through which the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world!&quot; Galatians 6:14 <br />
        <br />
        The <strong>cross of Christ</strong> is the Christian's glory! It embraces the whole doctrine of salvation by grace, and is viewed by the Christian as . . .<br />
        the foundation of his hope,<br />
        the object of his faith; <br />
        the end of the law;<br />
        the antidote of his misery;<br />
        the centre of truth;<br />
        the mirror, in which Jehovah displays His perfections; <br />
        the key which opens the gates of the celestial paradise; <br />
        the storehouse of eternal wisdom; <br />
        the mystery of incarnate love; <br />
        the destruction of death; <br />
        the gate to everlasting life; <br />
        the object of the angels wonder;<br />
        the cause of the devil's everlasting confusion.<br />
        <br />
        Beloved, let us fix our eyes and hearts upon <strong>this glorious, astonishing object!</strong><br>
