The Law was given by Moses; the moral law, to discover the extent and abounding sin; the ceremonial law, to point out, by typical sacrifices and ablutions, the way in which forgiveness was to be sought and obtained. But grace, to relieve us from the condemnation of the one, and truth answerable to the types and shadows of the other, came by Jesus Christ.
John NewtonIf our zeal is embittered by expressions of anger, invective, or scornโwe may think we are doing service of the cause of truth, when in reality we shall only bring it into discredit!
John NewtonThis is faith: a renouncing of everything we are apt to call our own and relying wholly upon the blood, righteousness and intercession of Jesus.
John Newton
