Quote of the Week: M'Cheyne

Jesus, out of love to us, bore the wrath of His Father poured out without mixture. It was the love of Christ that made Him leave the love of His father, the adoration of angels, and the throne of glory. It was love that made Him not despise the Virgin's womb - it was love that drove Him into the wilderness; love made Him a Man of sorrows - love made Him hungry, and thirsty, and weary - love made Him hasten to Jerusalem - love led Him to gloomy, dark Gethsemane - love bound and dragged Him to the judgment hall - love nailed Him to the cross - love bowed His head beneath the amazing load of His Father's anger. "Greater love hath no man than this." "I am the good Shepherd; the good Shepherd giveth His life for the sheep."

Robert Murray M'Cheyne
