Keep Yourselves Strictly In Awe Of Him!

Commenting on Ephesians 3:14-19, John Calvin said:

"To be brief, we must be sure of the infinite good that is done to us by our Lord Jesus Christ, in order that we may be ravished in love with our God and inflamed with a proper zeal to obey him, and keep ourselves strictly in awe of him, to honour him with all our thoughts, with all our affections, and with all our hearts."

John Calvin, Sermons On The Epistle To The Ephesians (Carlisle: Banner of Truth, 1975), 295.
