God’s Glory

We Do See Jesus – Charles Spurgeon

We Do See Jesus – Charles Spurgeon

We have not seen Jesus raise the dead; we have not seen him cast out devils; we have not seen him use the winds and calm the waves; but we do see, with our mind’s eye, his spotless holiness, his boundless love, his superlative truth, his wondrous heavenliness; in a word, we have seen, and do see, his fullness of grace and truth; and we rejoice in the fact that the tabernacle government of God among men in Christ Jesus is attended with a more real glory than the mere brilliance of light and the glow of flame.

The Day I Died – George Müller

The Day I Died – George Müller

There was a day when I died, utterly died — died to George Müller, his opinions, preferences, tastes, and will; died to the world, its approval or censure; died to the approval or blame even of my brethren and friends — and since then I have only to show myself approved to God.

Glory Begun – Thomas Brooks

Glory Begun – Thomas Brooks

What is grace but glory begun? And what is glory but grace perfected? Grace is glory in the bud, and glory is grace at full.
