Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Great Concern: Or, Man´s Relation to God and a Future State The difference in the judgments of men with regard to Religious Conversion, is owing to the difference in their views with respect to the fundamental doctrines of the gospel. They who believe that a vicarious sacrifice for sin has been made by One who "was in the beginning with God," and "was God" and was "made flesh," are led to expect and to find something in the relation of men, as sinners, to God, which makes such an atonement indispensable to salvation. It confirms their faith in the tremendous penalty threatened against sin; it shows them not only the possibility, but the justice, of pardon founded on such a sacrifice; and the promised supernatural change, by the Holy Spirit, of all who are thus pardoned, is no more than they might expect would follow. If the Saviour be, to some, Supreme God, but to others only "the young man of Nazareth;" or if he be to some an atoning sacrifice for sin, and to others only an efflorescence of human perfectibility; and again, if he be to us One who was "with God," as well as "God," and to others merely a superhuman testimony of divine love, a created being greatly endowed, - our views and feelings on religious subjects will totally differ in things esteemed by some to be essential to salvation.
