The gospel itself teaches us that "God is love," and the plan of redemption which it unfolds, is a most sublime and glorious display of benignity and mercy, on the part of the Father who gave his Son, and of the Son who voluntarily shed his blood, for the expiation of human guilt. In fact, our admiration for the Christian system arises chiefly from the circumstance, that it diffuses a brighter and more attractive lustre over the amiable perfections of the Godhead, than any other scheme which has yet been presented to mankind.

William Ashmead — The Late Rev. William Ashmead, Sermons, with a Memoir of his Life (Philadelphia: Towar, J. & D. M. Hogan, 1830), Sermon VIII, pp. 149–150
