Thomas Watson – 1686
“If Christ appears for us in heaven, then we must appear for Him upon earth. Christ is not ashamed to carry our names on His breast, and shall we be ashamed of His truth? Does He plead our cause, and shall we not stand up in His cause? What a might argument is this to stand up for the honor of Christ in times of apostasy! Christ is interceding for us. Does He present our names in heaven, and shall not we profess His name on earth?” – Body of Divinity, pg 185
