Sovereign Grace / Its Source, Its Nature and Its Effects

  • Kez Kezhas quoted4 years ago
    I see you laugh; but my friends you are laughing at yourselves. You need not go far away to find these boys. Salvation is freely offered to all, but the trouble is that men do not believe God’s Word, and do not accept the gift. Who will accept it now?
  • Kez Kezhas quoted4 years ago
    My friends, give up the struggle today! You have tried long and hard. It has been a hard battle, has it not? Give it up; and repose in the arms of Jesus Christ. Say “Lord, I come to thee as a poor sinner; wilt Thou not save me and help me?” “The gift of God is eternal life.” It is offered to all: who will have it?
  • Kez Kezhas quoted4 years ago
    “I would not work my soul to save,

    For that my Lord hath done;

    But I would work like any slave,

    For love of God’s dear Son.”
  • Kez Kezhas quoted4 years ago
    learned that if ever she was to be saved, she must give up the struggle, and let Jesus Christ save her.
  • Kez Kezhas quoted4 years ago
    I wish I could get this whole audience to drop the word try, and put the word trust in its place.
  • Kez Kezhas quoted4 years ago
    The religion of Christ is not man working his way up to God; it is God coming down to man. It is Christ coming down to the pit of sin and woe where we are, bringing us out of the pit, putting our feet upon a rock, and a new song in our mouth. He will do it this minute, while I am speaking, if you will let Him. Will you let Him? That is the question.
  • Kez Kezhas quoted4 years ago
    And so, if I want forgiveness of sin, it must be the work of God. If we look at salvation as a new life, it must be the work of God. God is the author of life: you cannot give yourself life. If we consider it as a gift, it must come from some one outside of ourselves. That is what I read in the Bible—Salvation as a gift.
  • Kez Kezhas quoted4 years ago
    Why, let the Lord save you.”
  • Kez Kezhas quoted4 years ago
    she gave up the struggle; and then it was that the Lord Jesus saved her.
  • Kez Kezhas quoted4 years ago
    Salvation is of God—of grace—of free grace. From the germ to the fruit, from foundation to top-stone—it is of grace, free grace, altogether and only. But the ‘working out of salvation’—is man’s part in the work of salvation. God will not repent for the man; nor believe for the man; nor lead a holy life for the man. God worketh inwardly—man worketh outwardly. And this outward human work is as necessary as the inward Divine work.”
