Christ Reveals God’s Life and Love

Christ was the life of God, in order that the life of God which was revealed in him, might be revealed in us; he was the love of God, in order that the love of God which was revealed in him, might be communicated to us. He was God manifested in the flesh, in order that we may reveal the character of God. Think not that this ideal is impossible. God requires impossibilities of no one. When he says, “Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect,” he means that we should look to him for the power of perfection. God holds out to every one that ideal of manhood which was shown to the world in Christ, and calls upon us to believe that what he did for his Son in the flesh he stands ready to do for us in the flesh.
