Never man spake like this man.
[John.7:46]
Thou art fairer than the children of men: grace is poured into thy lips: therefore God hath blessed thee for ever. ■ The Lord GOD hath given me the tongue of the learned, that I should know how to speak a word in season to him that is weary. ■ His mouth is most sweet: yea, he is altogether lovely. This is my beloved, and this is my friend.
[Psa.45:2 | Isa.50:4 | Song.5:16]
All bare him witness, and wondered at the gracious words which proceeded out of his mouth. ■ He taught them as one having authority, and not as the scribes.
[Luke.4:22 | Matt.7:29]
Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom. ■ The sword of the Spirit ... is the word of God. ■ The word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword. ■ The weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds; casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ.
[Col.3:16 | Eph.6:17 | Heb.4:12 | II Cor.10:4,5]
