The Gospel is the "ministration of the Spirit." It absolves us from every debt but that of gratitude and love, and thus causes us to revive and respire in the liberty of the sons of God. It assures us that all is freely forgiven. It does more, it adds a new outfit of strength to obey the law. Not only are all old scores wiped out, but the supernatural power of the Holy Spirit is promised, by which a life of holiness may be at once commenced, and surely perfected. The law says, "Do this, and live." The Gospel says, "Live, and do this."
