It should be your endeavour to explain also by what method a sinner may secure to himself the benefit of the death of Christ. It is too commonly imagined that the death of Christ only makes way for the acceptance of what men do for their own salvation; and in many instances great perplexity exists as to the import of the terms coming to Christ, and believing on him. Make it your object to show that the benefit of Christ's death is to be secured by submitting ourselves to his method of salvation; by cherishing a state of mind breathing acquiescence in the provision of his grace; by giving ourselves up, as guilty, helpless, and undone, to Christ Jesus, that he may be our wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption.
