For poor, guilty, filthy sinners

And of His fulness have all we received, and grace for grace.

(John 1:16)

What think ye of His treasures; His unsearchable riches that are stored up in Him for the benefit of poor sinners, having received these gifts for men? All the treasures of wisdom and knowledge are hid in Him; all, and infinitely more than we lost in the first Adam, is treasured up in the second Adam. O what may a poor, ignorant, witless sinner think of a treasure of wisdom, for his illumination! What may a guilty sinner think of a treasure of righteousness, for his justification! What may a filthy sinner think of a treasure of grace, for his sanctification! And what may a miserable sinner think of a treasure of mercy, for his complete redemption! Yet all these treasures, and infinitely more than we can name, are in Christ; “Who of God is made unto us wisdom, righteousness, sanctification, and redemption,” 1 Corinthians 1:30. O the fulness of grace that is in Him, that out of His fulness we may receive grace for grace! He is the storehouse of all God’s treasures; for all is treasured up in Him, that we may be complete in Him, who will by faith make use of him? [Colossians 2:7-12, John 1:16]
