CHRISt quotes
As the print of the seal on the wax is the express image of the seal itself, so Christ is the express image—the perfect representation of God.
The name of Christ—the one great word—well worth all languages in earth or heaven.

Jesus Christ is a God to whom we can approach without pride, and before whom we may abase ourselves without despair.
All history is incomprehensible without Christ.
As little as humanity will ever be without religion, as little will it be without Christ.
