Then He Can Reach Us
What A Reach There Is In The Mercy Of God
“When we think his mercy is clean gone, and that ourselves are free among the dead, and of the number that he remembereth no more, Then He Can Reach Us, and cause that again we stand before Him. He could reach Jonah, tho’ in the belly of a giant fish (Jonah 2); and reach thee even then , when thou thinkest thy way is hid from the Lord, and thy judgment passed over from thy God. There is a length to admiration, beyond apprehension or belief, in the arm of the strength of the Lord; and this is that which the Apostle intended by this word LENGTH; namely to insinuate what a reach there is in the mercy of God, how far it can extend itself.”
John Bunyan
Ephesians 3:17 That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love,
18 May be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height;
19 And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God.
