In the ordinary church, it is suppressed by respectability, by a desire to appear better than we really are.

When we think of the ideal, we do not add virtue to virtue...

but think of Jesus Christ, so that the standard of human life is no longer a code, but a character.

Friend and foe alike are agreed on the question of the character of Jesus Christ.

O God, when our best was not good enough...you came to lift us to yourself.

"The principles without the Person are powerless...We who are persons yearn for the Personal."

"He lived among us and showed us how to live by living."

"If Jesus had power, he had power to restrain power, holding it only for the meeting of human needs in others."

"Gracious Savior, you came where we are to take us to where you are."

The Christian Scriptures never say, "God is truth," for that would have classed the Christian faith as a philosophy.

But the Christian faith is not primarily a thought; it is primarily an act--an act of Love invading history to redeem us.

The adjective "Christlike" is the highest descriptive adjective of character both for God and humans in any language.

The God-man reveals both God and humans.

Does the perfect revelation stop progress? No. It begins it.
