Glory in nothing, but only in this, that you are in Christ. For God chose you in him; the being you had was in him before the world was.
Thomas GoodwinOh despise not election! therein lies all your hope, that there is a remnant who shall infallibly be saved.
Thomas GoodwinThe Indwelling of Christ by faithis to have Jesus Christ continually in oneโs eye, a habitual sight of Him. I call it so because a man actually does not always think of Christ; but as a man does not look up to the sun continually, yet he sees the light of it. So you should carry along and bear along in your eye the sight and knowledge of Christ, so that at least a presence of Him accompanies you, which faith makes.
