“Christ is all!” Colossians 3:11

What is Christianity?

Christianity centers in the glorious Person of Christ!

Because The aim and purpose of every Scripture truth, is to fix the eye on Christ Himself!

He is the Alpha and Omega of Christianity.  The aim and purpose of every Scripture truth

From Him proceeds every ray of spiritual light.

To Him all believing hearts are drawn.

The Christian finds consolation and strength only in Him.

Every motive for Christian living is from Him.

The glorious privileges which Christians possess, can only be enjoyed from union and communion with Him.

Their highest standard of duty is to follow His footsteps, and to walk even as He walked.

Christianity, in fact, is Christ! It is . . .
Christ in the Scriptures,
and in the Manger,
Christ on the Cross,
the Risen One.
and Christ the Ascended One,
Christ, the Prophet, the Priest, the King.
Therefore Christ in His Glorious appearing, is to be revealed from Heaven with His mighty angels!

All our trust, all our love, all our obedience, is due to Him!

Because The more the eye and the heart is turned fully towards Him–the more true and genuine is our Christianity.

 Do not I love You, and see,
And turn each cursed idol out,
That dares to rival Thee!

Therefore You know I love You, dearest Lord,
But oh, I long to soar,
Far from the sphere of mortal joys,
And learn to love You more!
Philip Doddridge
