Reflections on the Greatness of our Lord

In order to grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ we must follow the apostolic injunction to consider Him. Therefore, the object of this booklet is to meditate on some facets of His greatness and glory. It deals with five places in the New Testament, where it is expressly stated that Christ is great or will be great. He is the great King, the great Prophet, the great Saviour, the great High Priest, and the great Shepherd. In His great Name we find help and strength for our course as Christians.
