Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Duty and Privilege of Christians in Connexion With the Support of the Ordinances of the Gospel The gospel is God´s gracious proclamation of pardon, peace, and blessedness to the world. This proclamation addresses itself to the condemned, estranged, and miserable. It carries in its bosom a tacit affirmation of the Fall. But while there is one awful fact which it assumes, there are other facts on which it rests. They are most glorious, beyond all thought of creature. In heaven they will be for wonder and for praise for ever. The offended God, in unutterable love, has himself brought salvation. The crisis was ever in the eye of Eternal Wisdom. And so, also, was the remedy. It was no expedient, occurring at the moment of need, formed in a surprise, unknown in its efficacy, and uncertain in its operation. In the very hour on which the heads of the new race fell from their loyalty, the gracious One, in mercy, disclosed His purpose of redemption. Through long ages light shone increasingly upon it. At least, on the plains of Bethlehem, angels sung in the shepherds´ ear the glad news of "Glory to God, and peace on earth." The pointed to a babe newly born in the inn of the neighbouring village, as destined to win both blessings.
