The God Of The Christians
Gem #75 – The God of the Christians
God is love in its highest degree. He is love rendered more than love. Love is not God, but God is love; He is full of grace, He is the abundant source of mercy–He delights in mercy. As high as the heavens are above the earth, so high are His thoughts of love above our thoughts of despair; and His ways of grace above our ways of fear. This God, in whom these three great attributes harmonize–unlimited sovereignty, inflexible justice, and unfathomable grace–these three make up the main attributes of the one God of heaven and earth whom the Christians worship.
