George Rogers:
What the church is to God:
Not a lawless rabble, but a well organised community. A mountain of holiness, for the display of justifying righteousness, of sanctifying grace.
What God is to the church:
In the church only is there room for all his perfections.

Robert Bellarmine:
His power, His wisdom, His justice, or His mercy, for all are infinite, everlasting, and incomprehensible; the greatness of God, and for which he deserves so much praise, is conspicuous in the foundation and construction of his church.

"Mountain of his holiness." The religion in it holy, the people in it a holy people.
Spurgeon:
The church of God is a mount for elevation and for conspicuousness, and it should be adorned with holiness, her sons being partakers of the holiness of God.
