Redemption and Responsibility

 
Redemption is a work of God and complete. There is as to this no responsibility on our part who believe. Yet they are constantly mixed up together; and so uncertainty is introduced where all is perfect, and confusion where all is clear. A condition is never connected with redemption, but with our walk through the wilderness, where the redeemed have to be proved and humbled, and to know what is in their hearts. J. N. D.
