None Like Christ

There is none like Christ; nothing like redemption through His blood, even the forgiveness of sins according to the riches of His grace. There is no learning or knowledge like the knowledge of Christ; no life like Christ living in the heart by faith; no work like the service, the spiritual service of Christ; no reward like the free-grace wages of Christ; no riches nor wealth like the unsearchable riches of Christ; no rest, no comfort, like the rest, the consolations of Christ; no pleasures like the pleasure of fellowship with Christ.
Little as I know of Christ, and it is my sin and shame that I know so little of Him, I would not exchange the learning of one hour's fellowship with Christ for all the liberal learning in ten thousand universities for ten thousand ages, even though angels were to be my teachers; nor would I exchange the pleasure my soul has found in a word or two about Christ as my God, for all the cried-up pleasures of this world since time began. For what, then, would I exchange the being forever with Christ, to behold His glory, see God in Him as He is, and enter into the joy of my Lord.
