Precious Things – Charles Spurgeon

“HE is precious,” that is, Jesus Christ is precious; here is the priceless gem. “Exceeding great and precious promises;” here is the worthy casket which holds the gem. “Like precious faith,” as Paul calls it, “like precious faith” with the apostles—here is the blessed hand by which we grasp the casket and the gem too. Mark well, I pray you, the precious pearl, the precious casket to hold it, and the precious title-deed that secures it to us, or as I said before, the precious hand which enables us to grasp the unrivaled jewel, and to call it all our own.
