Love to the Unseen Christ by Thomas Vincent

"The love of Christians unto Christ is a grace wrought in their hearts by the Spirit. It is a flower most sweet and fragrant, but there is no seed of it in the nature of any man since the fall."

"There must first be a discovery of Christ as a suitable object for love; and not merely a bare notion of this, but believing apprehensions of it, that Christ is infinitely lovely, superlatively excellent, and that His love is matchless and transcended towards the children of men; that there is a treasure in Him, and a storehouse of all graces, and the most needful and rich supplies."
