“The Indwelling of Christ by faithis to have Jesus Christ continually in oneâ€™s eye, a habitual sight of Him. I call it so because a man actually does not always think of Christ; but as a man does not look up to the sun continually, yet he sees the light of it.

Until the answer is yes, we must never stop asking.”
