Do not question your title to it. I mean this, Make no doubt but that it is as lawful and as allowable in God's sight for you to lay hold on the saving grace of God, as ever it was for any sinner in the world. I do not mean that graceless people should presently think that they have a title to the grace of God; for no man hath a title to it till he receives it. But this I say, the offer of the grace of God, in the gospel, gives fair warning and liberty for every one to embrace it. "He that will, let him come, and take of the water of life freely," (Rev. xxii. 17). And that which is thus freely offered, and freely given, should be thankfully welcomed, and thankfully received, when it is enjoyed.
Robert Traill — Sermon II (closing application) on Galatians 2:21, in Select Practical Writings of Robert Traill (Edinburgh: Printed for the Assembly's Committee of the Free Church of Scotland, 1845), p. 51
