Book Description
Excerpt from Plain Progressive Talks Upon the Way of Salvation It is, then, of utmost importance that we should know who belong to that class. There are some who assert very loosely that salvation is free; that all may have it who will, and that no one will be excluded from heaven who seeks to enter. This is certainly a mistake. The Bible does not warrant the statement; and those who make it without other explanation or qualification, cheapen the precious gift of God. Salvation is repeatedly declared to be for one certain class, and for none others. Who belong to this class? The Saviour himself gives the answer in Luke 5 32: I came not to call the righteous, but 5237725719 to repentance. We find similar statements also in the following passages Matt. I Tim. Luke 19: io.

Excerpt from Old and New A revealed religion must necessarily go back to the time Of the revelation for its evidence, and its fullest authentication. Any doctrine or practice which cannot be verified by the test Of this antiqui ty, -the date Of the revelation, -cannot be imposed as Of Divine Obligation. That antiquity, therefore, which goes back to the actual revelation, is one Of the most valuable and decisive tests Of truth. Hu man devices In religion rapidly make for themselves a prescription, and an imposing appeal to antiquity.

Salvation From Sin, the End of Christian Faith (Classic Reprint)
Author: John Humphrey Noyes
Publisher: Forgotten Books
ISBN: 9780365382706
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 54
Book Description
Excerpt from Salvation From Sin, the End of Christian Faith In denying that the Old Testament saints were born of God, we must not be understood as denying that they had any religion. It appears by the passage above quoted, that there are two dis tinct stages in religious experience, in the first of which men may properly be called servants of God, while yet they are not sons. It is important that this distinction should be clearly seen, and constantly kept in view. We admit, and teach, that the Old Testament saints were servants of God in the ages before Christ, and that they became sons at his coming. But what is the difference between servants and sons? Did not the Old Testament saints love God Yes and so many servants love and honor their masters, while yet there is no vital union, no blood-relationship between them. So there was no vital union between God and man, till Christ came in the flesh. Abraham was called the friend of God, and he doubtless loved God as a man loves his friend but it is not said in scripture, and it is not true, that Christ was in him that he dwelt in God, and God in him. This spiritual indwelling was hid from ages and from generations, and was manifested only after the mission of Christ. Col. 1 26, 27. It is this that brings men into blood-relationship to God, so that they are entitled to the name of sons of God.
