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!
Looking at the world through the cross
O sad spectacle of misery, grief, and woe!
Everyone had a home — but Him!
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!
Not a loving worm, not a living worm!
Evil chapters in your 'life story'
If our faith stops at the cross
Love bound Him to the cross and held Him there!
A family of such vile, polluted, and wretched beings!
Yes, indeed, this is the wonder of wonders, the miracle of miracles!
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!
He determined to go to Jerusalem!
If you meet that poor wretch who thrust his spear into My side!
O the love of His royal heart!
He loved them to the uttermost!
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
When Christ finds the wandering sinner
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!
I see a Cross on the Hill of Reproach!
Sharper scourges tear His heart!
What sorrow, what sweetness, what glory!
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
He had to borrow whatever He needed!
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!
The unsearchable riches of Christ!
What could move His heart towards us?
Though we have been robbers, traitors and murderers
What a family has He to bear with!
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!
Not earthly gold, or pearls, or diamonds
Happy here, and happy to all eternity!
Jesus enriches His bride with gifts!
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
We will wear crowns of life and glory!
Our world would have been one continuous Hell!
An actual, living, personal Friend
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!
He justifies us — but we condemn Him!
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
The love of Christ which surpasses knowledge!
From the fullness of His grace
Like a little child in the arms of eternal love
Oh! what magnificence of love!
