Robert Traill (The Lord's Prayer, John 17:24), Works 2:120:

Paul teacheth us how faith advanceth the Christian in his new life; 2 Cor. 3:18, “But we all with open face, beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image, from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord.” We all: it is not only I, Paul, whom you may think singularly privileged: but all we, who under the dispensation of the gospel, have had the veil taken off our hearts and eyes, we all behold the same glory of Christ, and with the same sort of fruit. Though we do not all behold it in the same clearness and brightness, nor with the same measure of fruit; yet all that do truly behold his glory, are truly made conformable to him.
