All-Sufficiency

Bunyan:
There is in Christ a fullness of all-sufficiency of all that which is needful to make us happy. . . .

While we keep our eyes upon him, we never desire to change him for another, or to add to ourselves some other thing, together with him, to make up our spiritual joy.

O the heart-attracting glory that is in Jesus Christ.
-John Bunyan, Come, and Welcome, to Jesus Christ, in The Works of John Bunyan (2 vols; Philadelphia: James Locken, 1832), 2:22; language slightly adapted
