It is not the absence of sin but the grieving over it which distinguishes the child of God from empty professors.

After grief for sin there should be joy for forgiveness.

Christ is the Divine answer to the Devil's overthrow of our first parents.

The nature of Christ's salvation is woefully misrepresented by the present-day evangelist. He announces a Saviour from Hell rather than a Saviour from sin. And that is why so many are fatally deceived, for there are multitudes who wish to escape the Lake of fire who have no desire to be delivered from their carnality and worldliness.

It is not the absence of sin but the grieving over it which distinguishes the child of God from empty professors.

God was under no constraint, no obligation, no necessity to create. That He chose to do so was purely a sovereign act on His part, caused by nothing outside Himself, determined by nothing but His own mere good pleasure.

We must not forget that the issues of Eternity are settled in Time.
