"Christ Is All!"
Three simple words. Yet these three words are full of
instruction. Here is our creed, the foundation of our faith, and the cause of
our hope. These three words are the joyful expression of every true believer's
heart. Christ is all in the covenant of grace. Christ is all in the creation.
Christ is all in the scriptures. Christ is all in salvation. Christ is all in
the church. Christ is all to be preached, loved, trusted, worshipped, and hoped
for. Christ is God's all to men. Christ is our all before God. Christ is all in
Heaven.
What is
Christ to you? To some he is nothing. To others he is something, but not much. To many Christ is all in some things, but not in others. But
to the poor, hell-deserving sinner, who has been redeemed by the Savior's
blood, clothed in his righteousness, and renewed by his Spirit, Christ is all
in all.
