Look and Look Again!

Oh! How should all hearts be taken with this Christ? Christians! turn your eyes upon the Lord: Look, and look again unto Jesus. Why stand ye gazing on the toys of this world, when such a Christ is offered to you in the Gospel? Can the world die for you?

[Isaac Ambrose]



Colossians 3:1-2 ... If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God.Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.

Hebrews 12:2 ... Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.

Jude 1:21 ... Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life.

Titus 2:13 ... Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life.
