Key Points

• Jesus is the founder and perfector of our faith.
• There is only One who is perfect to look upon and be like: He is Jesus.
• Jesus is the Word; we need to study the Word to know Him.
• The Bible is His love letter to us.
• If we would look to Jesus, He wants to reveal Himself to us in a deep and personal way.
• The life of Jesus was to glorify the Father. He did so in a way that was uncommon to man: He laid down His life; He loved to the end. He was obedient to the will of the Father.
• Heroes of the faith in Zach’s life have been like the dandelion full of seeds. Fully surrendered to where the Holy Spirit leads.
• “Turn full your soul’s vision to Jesus, and look and look at Him, and a strange dimness will come over all that is apart from Him, and the Divine ‘attrait’ by which God’s saints are made, even in this 20th century, will lay hold of you. For ‘He is worthy’ to have all there is to be had in the heart that He has died to win.”
