Christ's Love

[Andrew P.C.]

"Consider, as Christ’s love was much set on the paying the price of redemption, so was his love and will as much set on the persons of the redeemed. He laid down the price, in love to the purchase. How can it enter into a man’s thoughts, that the Son of God should lay down so great a price, and not know what he was to take up for it? that he should die, and not know for whom, nor who should be the better for it? His dying was in love; and did he not know whom he loved! His love is still spoke of as distinguishing and particular; for his body, his people, his sheep, whom he knew, John 10."

Robert Traill, Works, 2.16
