A Brighter Day Begins with His Word.

Moody, Dwight Lyman, 1837-1899 • SECTION 59

Part 59

← Sovereign Grace: Its Source, Its Nature and Its Effects

Mr. M.--How may a man know if he has eternal life?

Mr. R.--By not treating God as if He were a liar, when He tells us He has given us eternal life in His Son.

Mr. M.--What is the means by which the New Birth we were speaking of is effected?

Mr. R.--"Of His own will begat He us with the _word of truth_." "Being _born again_, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the _Word of God_ . . . . and this is the Word, which by the Gospel is preached unto you."

"Oh, the wondrous love of Jesus To redeem us with His blood! Through His all-atoning merit, He has brought us near to God: For the boundless grace that saves us We His name will magnify; He is coming in His glory, We shall see Him by and by!

Oh, the wondrous love of Jesus To redeem our souls from death! We will thank Him, we will praise Him, While His mercy lends us breath: We are waiting--only waiting-- Till He comes our souls to bear To the Home beyond the shadows, In His Kingdom over there!"
