Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Outlook, Vol. 79: A Weekly Newspaper; January-April, 1905
The New Testament lays stress on the fact that we are to be like Christ; not merely followers of him in act, but partakers of his spirit. If we have not his spirit, we are none of his; he is the first-born among many brethren; we are joint heirs of God with him; we are to be as our Master; as he was, so are we to be in this world; we are to be one with him and the Father; rooted and grounded in love, we are to be filled unto all the fullness of God. How are the disciples of Christ to understand the ideal thus put before them, not only by the Apostles in their letters, but by Jesus Christ himself in his expressed aspira tions for his followers?
