“Christ calls us brethren and is one of us. How should we be encouraged when we 
have such a Mediator! ‘Tis one of us that is to plead for us, one that God from 
love to us has received into His own person from among us.”

–Jonathan Edwards, “[Entry 183: Christ’s Love](http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0300060599/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=0300060599&linkCode=as2&tag=toletaupanre-20)”
