William Gurnall:
“When thou trustest Christ within thee, instead of Christ without thee, thou settest Christ against Christ. The bride does well to esteem her husband’s picture, but it were ridiculous if she should love it better than himself, much more if she should go to it rather than to him to supply all her wants. Yet thou actest thus when thou art more fond of Christ’s image in thy soul than of Him who painted it there.”
From William Gurnall, Christian in Complete Armour, Banner of Truth Trust, 1974
