Quotes about: Son

• On Good Friday Jesus died But rose again at Eastertide.....Lord, teach us to understand that your Son died to save us not from suffering but from ourselves, not from injustice...but from being unjust. He died that we might live - but live as he lives, by dying as he died who died to himself.

  Oh, give me life to hope above all skies.

• A God must have a God for company.
  And lo! thou hast the Son-God to thy friend.
  Thou honour'st his obedience, he thy law.

  Thou fold'st him round in live love perfectly-
  One two, without beginning, without end;
  In love, life, strength, and truth, perfect without a flaw.
