Christ’s Growth & Our Growth

“Our faith can only receive what grace provides and can only believe what Scripture reveals. But faith should receive everything grace provides and Scripture reveals. We impoverish our spiritual experience and deny ourselves Christ’s help when we fail to see how important his spiritual growth was. But when we see that our Saviour himself grew in grace, new dimensions of his love for us and new possibilities of our own spiritual development are opened to us.”

- Sinclair B. Ferguson, Grow in Grace (Carlisle, Pa.: Banner of Truth Trust, 1989), 10-11.
