Obviously it is not every kind of faith that can save the soul. It is not faith in Brahma or Mohammed. It is not faith in nature. It is not faith in humanity. It is not faith in an impersonal God; nor yet is it faith in the true God, such as the lost have while they tremble. It is faith of a peculiar and definite kind; faith of which the Spirit of God is the Author, and the Son of God is the object. It is faith which saves, not as having all merit, or any merit, but simply as taking the salvation which God has provided, and which He freely gives.
