What renders the infinite grace and love of Christ perfectly lovely is that 'tis an infinitely holy mercy and love and that he never exercises it in a way inconsistent with the perfect holiness and justice of his nature.

As a Saviour he stood ready to undertake for us to save us from eternal ruin, to stand between us and wrath, to provide for us favour and acceptance with God, and to bestow eternal life upon us.

If we do but accept him, if our hearts close with him, he desires no more. He doesn't offer to sell himself to us for our righteousness or anything that we can do for him, a grace to give to him. He offers himself freely.

'Tis God who has appointed the ministry of the gospel. 'Tis he who appointed that order of men to explain, to reprove, to rebuke, to exhort and to warn, to counsel and to direct souls in their various difficulties.

'Tis he who teaches and instructs the soul. He teaches men the danger of sin and the evil of their hearts and makes them to know God and Jesus Christ.
