“We learn, lastly, that the Lord Jesus Christ is the source of all spiritual life and light. St. John tells us, that ‘in Him was life, and the life was the light of men.’ He is the eternal fountain, from which alone the sons of men have ever derived life. Whatever spiritual life and light Adam and Eve possessed before the fall, was from Christ. Whatever deliverance from sin and spiritual death any child of Adam has ever enjoyed since the fall, whatever light of conscience or understanding any one has obtained, all has flowed from Christ.” (Page 3)

“ a mournful example of the blindness of unconverted men.” (Page 45)
