  &quot;<strong>Yes! He is altogether lovely!</strong>&quot; Song of Solomon 5:16<br />
  <br />
  This is the opinion formed of Jesus—by all who really know Him. There is nothing lovely—but it is in Jesus, and it is in Him in full perfection. He is the object of admiration and adoration, to all who are taught by the Holy Spirit. <br />
  <br />
  His <strong>person </strong>as God-man is altogether lovely—for He possesses every grace that can adorn humanity, and all the glories of infinite deity. <br />
  <br />
  His <strong>character </strong>is altogether lovely—for He is infinitely wise, dignified, condescending, and kind. <br />
  <br />
  Indeed there is nothing in Christ but what is lovely—and there is nothing lovely but it may be found in Him. <br />
  <br />
  The testimony borne by the spouse will apply . . .<br />
  to His <strong>offices</strong>, as Prophet, Priest and King;<br />
  to His <strong>government</strong>, universal and particular;<br />
  to His <strong>design </strong>in all His dealings with us—even to purify, elevate, and honor us. <br />
  <br />
  Reader, do you <em>know</em> Him? <br />
  <br />
  Reader, do you <em>admire</em> Him? <br />
  <br />
  Reader, do you <em>love</em> Him? <br />
  <br />
  The more you <em>know</em> Him—the more you will <em>love</em> Him!<br />
  <br />
  The more you <em>love</em> Him—the more <em>happy</em> you will be!<br />
  <br />
  &quot;Yes! He is altogether lovely! This is my Beloved, this my Friend!&quot; Song of Solomon 5:16
