…and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father… – John 1:14

By faith we have beheld the glory of His complex person. We have known and believed that He is the everlasting Word, the veritable Son of the Father, we have beheld Him by faith, as dwelling with the Father or ever the world was, the beloved of His Father’s soul; we have seen Him and we have marked that His goings-forth are of old, even from everlasting, we have seen Him weighing the clouds, measuring the channels of the great deep, planning the heavens, and meting out the sea, we have seen Him with the line and with the plummet, making all things according to His wisdom, and the purpose of the counsel of His will, for “without Him was not anything made that was made.” We have seen Him as God, seated upon the throne of His Father, and we have believed that the sea roareth only as He bids it, that the earth with all the creatures that are therein obeys His glorious will. Lo, in His hands to-day the keys of heaven and death, and hell! We have had no doubts whatever as to His Divinity, for we have seen and known that He is “very God of very God.” “God over all, blessed for ever Amen.”

We have seen Him too as man. We have perceived that He is of the substance of His mother, bone of our bone, flesh of our flesh; man in all infirmities, but not man in any guiltiness of His own; man weak, suffering, hungry, thirsty, dying, but without spot or wrinkle-pure, the immaculate Lamb of God. We have beheld Him in the glory of this complex person-not God deteriorated to man, not man deified to God, but God, very God, and very man; God in all that is God-like, man in all that is manlike, and we have adored Him as such. We have seen in Him the lustre of a beauty which far outshines all that earth can present us, or all that heaven can offer. Whom have we on earth but Jesus? Who is there in heaven that we can desire beside Him? ~ C.H. Spurgeon
