"The former rebels are not merely forgiven by having their due punishment remitted; they are brought into a place of high favor with God - this grace in which we stand." (Bruce)
The Proper Attitude of Man under Grace (William Newell)
- To believe, and consent to be loved while unworthy, is the great secret
- To refuse to make "resolutions" and "vows"; for that is to trust in the flesh
- To expect to be blessed, though realizing more and more lack of worth
- To testify of God's goodness, at all times
- To be certain of God's future favor; yet to be ever more tender in conscience toward Him
- To rely on God's chastening hand as a mark of His kindness
- A man under grace, if like Paul, has no burdens regarding himself; but many about others
