“Christ has given us, not only the ritual of an ordinance, but the pattern for our lives, when He took the cup, and gave thanks. So common joys become sacraments, enjoyment becomes worship, and the cup which holds the bitter or the sweet skillfully mingled for our lives becomes the cup of blessing and salvation drank in remembrance of Him.” JoyGivenChristCommonOur LivesSweetBlessingWorshipSalvationPatternsBitterThanksCupsEnjoymentRitualRemembranceSacramentsDrankOrdinances Book:MacLaren's Commentary- Expositions of Holy Scripture Source: MacLaren's Commentary- Expositions of Holy Scripture

“What a way to learn great theology! That's what comes to mind whenever I sing one of those old hymns. "And Can It Be" is like putting the doctrine of salvation to music.

“The death of Christ made it possible for God to accept sinful man, and that he has, in fact, done so. Consequently, whatever separation there is between man and the benefits of God's grace is subjective in nature and exists only in man's mind and unregenerate spirit. The message man needs to hear then, is not that he simply has a suggested opportunity for salvation, but that through Christ he has, in fact, already been redeemed to God and that he may enjoy the blessing that are already his through Christ” MenNeedsMindMayMadeDoneFactsSpiritOpportunityEnjoyChristAcceptingGraceBlessingBenefitsMessagesSalvationSeparationMade ItSubjectiveGod's GraceRedeemed Author:Carlton Pearson

“Believe in Jesus Christ, our Savior and our Redeemer, the Son of God, who came to earth and walked the dusty roads of Palestine - the Son of God - to teach us the way of truth and light and salvation, and who, in one great and glorious act offered an atonement for each of us. He opened the way of salvation and exaltation for each of us, under which we may go forward in the Church and kingdom of God.

“Great blessings await us at this time, and will soon be poured out upon us, if we are faithful in all things, for we are even entitled to greater spiritual blessings than they [the faithful at the time of Christ] were, because they had Christ in person with them, to instruct them in the great plan of salvation.

“So this estate is given each of us to determine whether or not we will merit glory and honor "for ever and ever," or whether we will rebel and refuse or be indifferent and not comply with the conditions and the laws and the ordinances provided by a merciful Father for our guidance through life and our protection and our salvation and thereby, by so doing, deny ourselves the fabulous gift and blessing of eternal life. This life, then, is a time of "sifting," a time when the "wheat" is separated from the "chaff," a time of deciding who is who and where we will live after we die.” LifeLawDiesFatherGivenConditionsHonorBlessingEternalGloryEternitySalvationDetermineRefuseDenyProtectionThis LifeGuidanceMeritRebelIndifferentEstatesFabulousEternal LifeMercifulWheatOrdinancesSiftingGlory And Honor Author:ElRay L.
