The knowledge of Christ is profound and large; all other sciences are but shadows; this is a boundless, bottomless ocean no creature hath a line long enough to fathom the depths of it. . . "I see something," said Luther, "which blessed Augustine saw not; and those that come after me, will see that which I see not." It is in the study of Christ as in the planting of a new-discovered country; at first men sit down by the seaside, upon the skirts and borders of the land, and there they dwell: but by degrees they enter farther and farther into the heart of the country. Ah, the best of us are yet but upon the borders of this vast continent "—"Flavel's Fountain of Life" A.D. 1671.
