A Church Well Built Up

Here is a quote from the great seventeenth-century theologian John Owen that offers somewhat of a commentary on what we desire at New Covenant:

“A church full of love, is a church well built up. I had rather see a church filled with love a thousand times, than filled with the best, the highest, and most glorious gifts and parts that any men in this world may be made partakers of.” – Sermon 21 (Colossians 3:14)
