The Lord willing, we begin, in this issue, to look at Christ – but we look at Him in an unusual way! I want for us to look at Christ not specifically from Scriptures. Of course, the best way to look at Christ is in the Scriptures. This is the clearest way to see Him. It is only from the Scriptures, by the working of the Holy Spirit, in faith, that we can know Christ, savingly.

So after he had washed their feet, and had taken his garments, and was set down again, he said unto them, Know ye what I have done to you? Ye call me Master and Lord: and ye say well; for so I am. If I then, your Lord and Master, have washed your feet; ye also ought to wash one another's feet. For I have given you an example, that ye should do as I have done to you. Verily, verily, I say unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord; neither he that is sent greater than he that sent him. If ye know these things, happy are ye if ye do them. John 13:12-17

"Be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves." — James 1:22

Christianity is a life based on, and produced by, a certain system of truth. It involves certain facts, plus the meaning of the facts, plus experience based upon these.

What matters first of all, if you are a Christian, is not what you once were, but what you are. Does that sound ridiculous?
