Faith is the optical faculty of the regenerate; it is the spiritual eye of the soul. Faith sees Christ, and as Christ is seen His excellence is descried; and as His excellence unfolds, so He becomes an object of endearment to the heart. Oh, how lovely and how glorious is Jesus to the clear, far-seeing eye of faith!
Octavius Winslow — Octavius Winslow, The Precious Things of God, chapter on the preciousness of Christ (New York: Robert Carter and Brothers, 1867).
