All My Theology Is Reduced To This

It Is As Natural And Reasonable For A Dependent Creature To Apply To Its Creator For What It Needs, As For A Child Thus To Solicit The Aid Of A Parent Who Is Believed To Have The Disposition And Ability To Bestow What It Needs.

Virtue Consists In Doing Our Duty In The Several Relations We Sustain, In Respect To Ourselves, To Our Fellowmen, And To God, As Known From Reason, Conscience, And Revelation.

It Will Never Do To Plead Sin As An Excuse For Sin, Or To Attempt To Justify Sinful Acts By Pleading That We Have An Evil Heart. This Instead Of Being A Valid Apology, Is The Very Ground Of Our Condemnation.

God Has Set Before You An Open Door Which No Man Has A Right Or Power To Shut. If You Should Be Shut Out, It Will Be By Your Own Unbelief, And Not For Want Of A Warrant To Come. Enter, Then, Without Delay Or Hesitation. None Can Less Afford To Delay Than The Aged Sinner. Now Is The Time. Now Or Never. You Have, As It Were, One Foot Already In The Grave. Your Opportunities Will Soon Be Over. Strive, Then, I Entreat You, To Enter In At The Strait Gate.

All My Theology Is Reduced To This Narrow Compass - "jesus Christ Came Into The World To Save Sinners."
