Psalms 135

Christ has many heirs, but no successors. Well may he be called King of Kings, for he has an unlimited power; other kings their power is limited, but Christ's power is unlimited (Psalm 135:6), Whatever he pleased, that did he in heaven and earth, and in the seas. Christ's power…

Things we prize we love. The righteous are God's treasure (Psalm 135:4), and where his treasure is, there is his heart: they are God's delicious garden, where he plants the flower of his love (Psalm 146:8). They are the dearly beloved of his soul (Jeremiah 12:7).

But this is Petitio principii, the disparity of favors bestowed on persons and nations, do argue in Scripture disparity of good-wills in the Lord; as because God sent his law and testimonies to Israel and Jacob, and dealt not so with every nation (Psalm 147:19-20). Every page al…

Consider what a Christ we have, one who as God, has a standing will that cannot fall (Isaiah 14:24). He does all his pleasure: his pleasure and his work are commensurable (Isaiah 46:10-11, Psalm 135:6, Psalm 115:3). Yet this Lord did stoop so low as to take to himself man's will…
