Centrality

The Centrality of Jesus Christ by T Austin-Sparks,
a British Theologian in the early 20th century, is
the size of a dictionary! I am blown away by his 
comprehension of the Christ who dwells in every 
believer. 

One quote: "...the need of the Lord's people is to 
have a new apprehension of the greatness of their
Christ, a new appreciation of the Son of God's
love--what a mighty, majestic, glorious, wonderful
Son He is!"

No, I am not going to bore you by quoting a 
man, but I do want to focus on the Perfect Man
who took on flesh and became like us in every
way.

Dear reader, open a newspaper, watch the news,
do we not need a far greater revelation of Jesus
than ever before? Come with me to see, "Him 
who for a little while was made lower than the 
angels, namely Jesus, crowned with glory and
honor because of the suffering of death, so that
by the grace of God, He might taste death for
everyone." (Hebrews 2:9)
