God is the Alpha and Omega of our salvation. He laid the foundation, and he must put on the top stone. He first formed the purpose, moved by nothing but his own amazing goodness. He sent his Son to make atonement, and atonement was made, full and satisfactory. He sent his Spirit to apply the purchased salvation; to awaken the stupid, to convince the awakened, to convert the convinced, and to train the converted for glory. And when the soul is brought to call him my Father, he most freely becomes a Father to it, and takes the finishing of its salvation into his own hands. All the resources for the salvation of sinners are found in God alone.
