THE LOVE OF JESUS
Such poor, depraved, insignificant creatures!That unclean donkey is yourself!
And WHY, dear Savior--tell me why?
O how strange--that God should love a worm, a dung-hill worm!
The infinite ocean of Christ's love
Who is this amazing spectacle of woe and torture?
He was infinitely happy and glorious without us!
O sad spectacle of misery, grief, and woe!
Your salvation makes amends for all His sufferings!
Can Jesus delight in such worms?
It was not human misery--but divine love!
Nothing less than a LIVING Christ will do for us!
For you, a vile sinner, a rebel worm
The sword of His pure, infinite, and incensed wrath!
Evil chapters in your 'life story'
Love bound Him to the cross and held Him there!
A family of such vile, polluted, and wretched beings!
Our Maker becomes our Husband!
Make us 'clods of earth' into 'stars of glory'
It was the golden link of love!
And to what is this astonishing change to be ascribed?
O what a melting consideration is this!
The more vile Christ made Himself for us
The infinite tenderness of Jesus!
Can this be--for such a vile wretch like me?
Humbling, cheering, sanctifying, restraining
Love suffering, and bleeding, and expiring!
He gave so much that He could give no more
A bottomless, boundless, endless ocean!
A sea of blood, wrath, sin, sorrow, misery
He is my Beloved, my Shepherd, my Savior and my Husband!
Surely there could be no truer picture taken of Jesus!
What a delightful and astonishing thought it is!
If you meet that poor wretch who thrust his spear into My side!
O the love of His royal heart!
He groaned, bled, and died for you!
Nothing but this can really break the sinner's heart!
A friend whose door is always open!
Time for taunt, and insult, and cruelty!
Eternal abhorrence--infinite love
Surely there was no more royal moment in all of Christ's life!
We have actually outsinned thousands
The full ocean of never-failing delight and satisfaction!
All to save you from wrath to come!
The precious Sufferer on that middle cross
The knife which killed her husband!
The outpouring of the everlasting wrath of God
Behold His precious Gift transfixed to it!
As white as the lily--and as red as the rose
So fathomless, boundless, and inexhaustible!
The astonishing, the marvelous love!
Sharper scourges tear His heart!
Unfathomable! Unsearchable! Unmeasurable!
The wrath of God due to them fell upon Him!
Truly, there is no love like Christ's!
He sits on the calm throne of eternal serenity!
It was His own love that fastened Him there!
Fall down in reverent astonishment
Pavilioned within His living, loving heart
The more Christ has suffered for us!
That love will eternally embrace you!
The greatest liar, thief, adulterer and murderer
Degrees and varieties of grace
A horrible and shocking thing is done!
Remaining enmity, sin, and ungodliness
The most amazing, most affecting, most
melting sight that mortals ever witnessed!You cannot weary nor wear Him out!
Intense! Mysterious! Vicarious!
It is your Husband who hangs bleeding there!
Unequaled, unparalleled, and unsurpassed!
A particular, personal, special love!
Such love cannot be described!
Christ's Love to Poor Sinners!
See that frightful looking gash!
He took us, and loved us, and married us!
The sympathetic love of the Incarnate God!
The flaming sword of justice quenched in the holy, loving bosom of Jesus!
Eternally repose your weary soul in the bosom of Jesus!
What a boundless, fathomless ocean!
The Preciousness of God's Children
O hard heart, O blind eyes, O poor dull sluggish soul!
Get this thought into your head!
The solitary object of His love!
How astonishing it is!
What could move His heart towards us?
The Voice....
See that cross!What a family has He to bear with!
What are those wounds?One tremendous draught of love!
The Creator of all worlds in tears!
The Infinite becomes an infant!
The infinite ocean of Christ's love!
Love suffering, and bleeding, and expiring!
A special, personal, distinguishing love!Consider what Christ is to you!
I saw One hanging on a tree!
WHAT ARE THESE MARKS?Not earthly gold, or pearls, or diamonds
For you!Happy here, and happy to all eternity!
In love
Your native air...
The Melody of the Cross!
God on a cross!Jesus enriches His bride with gifts!
The price!Oh, what a loving, gentle, skillful healer is Jesus!
One everlasting memorial of anguish and suffering
The Creator of the universe sleeps in a woman's arms!
NUMBERED WITH THE TRANSGRESSORS
What more could he offer?
There on the bloody tree!
COMFORT, CONSOLATION, CALVARYAn actual, living, personal Friend
Drive the nail of the cross!
The Cross!
Do you see him yonder?That was more than His holy soul could bear!
He gave His entire self for us!
O man, plunge into this river!
Holy amazement at His unspeakable love!
Christian, shall I tell you a secret?
Things that even the angels desire to look into!
Oh heart, heart, what are you?
Have we nothing to give to Christ?
A special, personal, distinguishing love!
The love of God to his people!
Put to death by His own creatures!
When He discovers repulsive things in us
He was crushed for our iniquities!
The greatest expression of His inexpressible love!
Eternal love, infinite wisdom, boundless power!
He loves you with all His infinite heart!
Filled with the red wine of righteous wrath!
Behold the incarnate God bowed in grief!
Everything to charm and rejoice and satisfy the heart!
What beauty have we that the King can desire?
A Compassionate High Priest and a Throne of Grace
There is no friend like Christ!
All glory to the gospel of Free Grace!
God's strong love for his children
GOD'S DEALINGS WITH HIS PEOPLE
A more vile and unlovely thing?
From the fullness of His grace
Like a little child in the arms of eternal love
Oh! what magnificence of love!
