"The doctrine of redemption by Jesus Christ is a glorious doctrine; it is the marrow and quintessence of the gospel, in which all a Christian’s comfort lies.
Great was the work of creation, but greater the work of redemption; it cost more to redeem us than to make us; in the one there was but the speaking of a word, in the other the shedding of blood. The creation was but the work of God’s fingers (Psalm 8:3). Redemption is the work of His arm (Luke 1:51)."
My doctrine shall drop as the rain,
My speech shall distil as the dew,
as the small rain upon the tender herb,
and as the showers upon the grass:
Deuteronomy 32:2
