Christ's Whole Character Must be Studied
John 1:36
And looking on Jesus as he walked, he said, Behold the Lamb of God!


If you wish to look at a portrait of Raphael's, what would you think to see only the forehead uncovered, and then only the eyes, and so on, until all the features had been separately seen? Could you gain a true idea of the picture as a whole? Yet this is the way men look at the picture of Christ in the gospels, reading a few verses and mottoes here and there, and never considering the life in its wholeness and harmony.

(H. W. Beecher.)
