"see him [Christ], and take him as God all-sufficient"

"If you think you can do any thing without him [Christ], you are not worthy of him; and you go cross to this revelation made of him. But if you can do nothing, and have nothing at all, and would have one to do all for you, and to be all to you; then see him, and take him as God all-sufficient, to do all your works in you and for you; and to be your all for grace and glory; and thus to see him, is to see the Father, and all his fullness in him; and thus to take him into your heart, is to take him indeed, and his Father's blessing with him."

—Ralph Erskine
