John Owen on Christ

"Christ is the treasury in which the Father places all the riches of his grace taken from the bottomless mine of his eternal love."

"All the fruits of God's love are first given to Christ. Christ then gives them to us."

"Christ is the well of salvation into which the water of God's love is poured."

"Christ bears the iniquity of our offerings and he adds incense to our prayers."
