This is the doctrine that we preach!
(Charles Spurgeon)
This is the doctrine that we preach:
If a man is saved—all the honor is to be given to Christ.
If a man is lost—all the blame is to be laid upon himself.
You will find all true theology summed up in these two short sentences:
Salvation is all of the grace of God!
Damnation is all of the will of man!
“For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this not from
yourselves, it is the gift of God—not by works, so that no one can
boast.” Ephesians 2:8-9
Throw the creature down in the dust!
(by J. C. Philpot)
Man’s religion is to build up the creature.
God’s religion is throw the creature down in
the dust of self abasement, and to glorify Christ.
