“Christ crucified and Christ glorified is all that we are to study; the one we are to study as long as we are on earth, and the other we shall be admitted to study when we get well to heaven. “That faith which is not built on a dying Christ is but a perilous dream: God awaken all from it that are in it!”—Robert Traill. 1690.
“ God forbid that I should glory , save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ .”— Galat. vi. 14.
