Proclaiming Salvation By Grace Alone By And Through The Complete and Finished Work Of Jesus
Christ....
...That Eternal Life Is The Free And Unmerited Favor Or Gift Of God, And Was (Is) Contained In The
Eternal Mind Of The Father. This Life is Administered In Time By His Divine Son, Who Is The Second
Person In The GodHead, And The Brightness Of God's Glory. The Goings Forth Of The Son Have Been
From Everlasting. This Life Eternal Is Thus Given To All That Were (Are) Eternally Chosen In The Son
According To The Purpose Which God Purposed In Himself Before The World Began, Or In
Eternity...Eph 1:1-11.
...Eternal Life, Being An Absolutely Free Gift Of God, Is Completely Unconditional Upon Man's Acceptance
Of It, Because The Recipient Of Eternal Life Is Completely Passive Under The Omnipotent Operation Of The
Holy Spirit, And Is Made Willing In His Heart In Concurrence With The Divine Will When the Day Of The
Manifestation Of God's Power, And It's Attendant Glory, Shines In His Soul...
...That This Gift Of Life In The Son, Being Everlasting, Shall Therefore Endure Forever In The Immediate
Presence Of God's Glory...
...Proclaiming The Absolute Sovereignty Of God Over All Things,... So That A Sparrow, A Worm, Or A
Universe Begins And Sustains It's Existence Within The Bounds Of God's Eternal Purpose And Decree...
The Will Of The Divine Being, Being Omnipotent, Or Almighty, Can In No Way Be Changed, Thwarted,
Prevented, Nullified, Stultified, Successfully Resisted Or Disappointed By Any Creature, Whether In
Heaven, Earth, Or All Deep Places; If So, Then God Would Immediately Cease To Be That Divine Being
With Those Qualities That His Power And Wisdom In His Word Has Attributed To Himself...
...Affirming That These Truths, Provided By The Wisdom Of God For His Children In The Holy Scriptures,
Through The Holy Prophets And Apostles, And The Lord Jesus Christ Himself, And Clearly Shown There
To Their Spiritual Minds For Their Learning And Edification In The Proper Knowledge Of God; Are
Therefore Not Superfluous, For ALL Scripture Is Given... For Their Learning, And Is Profitable..., But, On
The Contrary, In The Wisdom Of God, Is Even Necessary For Their Establishment And Comfort In The
Faith; That The Publication And Proclamation Of These Doctrines In No Way Encourages Complacency,
Much Less The Practice Of Licentiousness In God's Children, (As Has Been Implied By Some) When They
Are Received Not In Mere Word or Intellect Only, But "In Power, And In The Holy Ghost, And In Much Assurance" 1 Thess 1:5, Tit 3:8 ...
...That We Have Presented No More Upon These Subjects Than That Which Was Spoken And Recorded
By The Holy Prophets And Christ And His Holy Apostles. This Codicil, Or Written Word Has Been
Transcribed And Preserved By Divine Providence Through The Power Of The Holy Spirit Through The
Ages Of Time For The Glorification Of The Son Of God And The Comfort Of His Saints.
...Free Grace Alone...
"..by grace are ye saved, and that not of your selves, it is the gift of God, not of works, lest any man should boast Eph 2
"...who hath saved us, and called us with an holy calling, not according to our works, but according to His own purpose and Grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began.1 Tim 1:9"...Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to His mercy He saved us...Tit 3:5 To The Praise Of The Glory Of His Grace
L. M.
Rom 3:24
Self Righteous souls on works rely,
And boast their moral dignity;
But If I lisp A Song of praise,
Each note shall echo, Grace, free grace.
"Twas Grace that quickened me when dead,
"Twas Grace my soul to Jesus lead;
Grace brings A sense of pardoned sin,
And Grace subdues my lusts within.
Grace reconciles to ev'ry loss,
And sweetens ev'ry painful cross,
Defends my soul when dangers, near;
By Grace alone I persevere.
When from this world my soul removes
To mansions of delight and love,
I'll cast my crown before His Throne,
And shout, "Free grace, free grace alone."
