“Hath put all things under His feet, and gave Him to be the head over all things to the church, which is His body, the fullness of Him that filleth all in all” (Eph. 1:22-2322And hath put all things under his feet, and gave him to be the head over all things to the church, 23Which is his body, the fulness of him that filleth all in all. (Ephesians 1:22‑23)).
One who wanted to be to the praise of God could do no better than to be full of the Lord Jesus Christ. I meet aged saints full of Christ, saying, “I’m done with this world, but I have Christ. He is the only thing I have to speak of—He is all.” Nothing is better than that. If I look around, I see in saints, not want of intelligence or lack of knowledge or want of activity, but lacking affections full of Christ. There is plenty of oil in the machine that is full of Christ. If the heart is full of Christ and joy in the Holy Spirit, we have our real portion. The early Christians were so full of Christ that all their trials were nothing. Why is it not so with us?
