John Owen - The Glory of Christ

From The Glory of Christ....Yet even in this life true believers sometimes have a little experience of the pleasure to be found in knowing Christ. The Scriptures and the Holy Spirit bring such a sense of the uncreated glory of God shining in Christ that it fills their souls with indescribable joy and peace. These experiences are not frequent but that is because of our idleness and lack of spiritual light. Glory would dawn in our souls if we were diligent in our duty of meditating on the glory of Christ. - John Owen
