The Greatness Of God, Of The God

The Name Of The Slough Was Despond.

He Hath Given Me Rest By His Sorrow, And Life By His Death.

Dost Thou Understand Me, Sinful Soul? He Wrestled With Justice, That Thou Mightest Have Rest; He Wept And Mourned, That Thou Mightest Laugh And Rejoice; He Was Betrayed, That Thou Mightest Go Free; Was Apprehended, That Thou Mightest Escape; He Was Condemned, That Thou Mightest Be Justified; And Was Killed, That Thou Mightest Live; He Wore A Crown Of Thorns, That Thou Mightest Wear A Crown Of Glory; And Was Nailed To The Cross, With His Arms Wide Open, To Show With What Freeness All His Merits Shall Be Bestowed On The Coming Soul; And How Heartily He Will Receive It Into His Bosom?

Now May This Little Book A Blessing Be To Those That Love This Little Book, And Me: And May Its Buyer Have No Cause To Say, His Money Is But Lost, Or Thrown Away.

He That Doth Righteousness; That Is, Righteousness Which The Gospel Calleth So, Is Righteous; That Is, Precedent To, Or Before He Doth That Righteousness. For He Doth Not Say, He Shall Make His Person Righteous By Acts Of Righteousness That He Shall Do; For Then An Evil Tree May Bear Good Fruit, Yea, And Make Itself Good By Doing So; But He Saith, He That Doth Righteousness Is Righteous; As He Saith, He That Doth Righteousness Is Born Of Him.
