The Jesus You Never Knew

In the hearts of all mankind of whatever race or station in life there - are inexpressible longings for something they do not now possess. This longing is implanted in the very constitution of man by a merciful God that man may not be satisfied with his present conditions or attainments whether bad or good or better. God desires that the human shallseek the best and find it to the eternal blessing of his soul. Satan by wily scheme and craft has perverted these longings of the human heart. He makes men believe that this desire may be satisfied by pleasure by wealth by-ease by fame by power; but those who have been thus deceived by him (and they number myriads) find all these things pall upon the sense leaving the soul as barren and unsatisfied as before. It is God's design that this longing of the human heart should lead to the One who alone is able to satisfy it. The desire is of Him that it may lead to Him the fullness and fulfillment of that desire. That fullness is found in Jesus the Christ the Son of the Eternal God. Forit was the good pleasure of the Father that in Him should all the fullness dwell; for in Him dwelleth all the fullness of the Godhead bodily. And it is also true that in Him ye are made full with respect to every desire divinely implanted and normally followed. Haggai calls Him the Desire of all nations and we may well call Him the Desire of all ages even as He is the King of ages. It is the purpose of this book to set forth Jesus Christ as the One in whom every longing may be satisfied.

Yet it may be truly said The half has never been told. It is not however the purpose of this work
