“In Christ we see the strength of achievement, and the strength of endurance. He moved with a calm majesty, like the sun. The bloody sweat, and the crown of thorns, and the cross, were full in His eyes; but He was obedient unto death. In His perfect self-sacrifice we see the perfection of strength; in the love that prompted it we see the perfection of beauty. This combination of self-sacrifice and love must be commenced in every Christian; and when it shall be in its spirit complete in him, then will he also be perfect in strength and beauty.” SelfEyeChristianSpiritChristPerfectSunSacrificeAchievementCrossesPerfectionAnd LoveMovedCalmCombinationHis EyesEnduranceSweatCrownsBloodyMajestyThornsObedientSelf SacrificeCrown Of ThornsStrength And BeautyLove And Sacrifice Author:Mark Hopkins
