Let us give our all

Let us become like Christ, since Christ became like us. Let us become divine for his sake, since he for ours became [human]. He assumed the worst that he  might give us the better; he became poor that we through his poverty might be rich; he took upon himself the form of a servant that we might receive back our liberty; he came down that we might be exalted; he was tempted that we might  conquer; he was dishonored that he might glorify us; he ascended that he might  draw us to himself, who were lying low in the fall of sin. Let us give all, offer all, to him who gave himself a ransom and reconciliation for us. 

- Gregory Nazianzen, Orationes 1.5; quoted in Torrance, op. cit, 180-181

As those who see light are in the light sharing its brilliance, so those who see God are in God sharing his glory, and that glory gives them life. To see God is to share in life. Irenaeus
