4. Have an eye to Jesus Christ; Look up to him the author and finisher of our faith. 1The word looking unto, signifies in the original, such a looking unto, as that we look off those things which may divert our looking up to Jesus. Labour (my beloved) to look still unto Christ as the author of grace, when you have the greatest exercise, or increase, or comfort of your grace.

There are these three things which we should eye in Christs giving us grace.
