“Christ is the centre of the mystery of the gospel” by John Owen

“Christ is the centre of the mystery of the gospel, and forgiveness is laid up in the heart of Christ from the love of the Father.

In Him are all the treasures of it hid.

And surely it is no small thing to have the heart of Christ revealed unto us.”

–John Owen, “An Exposition of Psalm 130,” in The Works of John Owen, Volume 6: Temptation and Sin (ed. William H. Goold; Carlisle, PA: Banner of Truth, 1681/2009), 6: 403-404.
