ASSURANCE --J C Ryle (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09) |
 | | Assurance, such as Paul expresses in the verses which head this tract, is not a mere fancy or feeling. |
 | | Assurance will support a child of God under the heaviest bereavements, and assist him to feel “It is well.” An assured soul will say, “Though beloved ones are taken from me, yet Jesus is the same, and is alive for evermore. |
 | | “Assurance is requisite to the well-being of a Christian, but not to the being; it is requisite to the consolation of a Christian, but not to the salvation of a Christian; it is requisite to the well-being of grace, but not to the mere being of grace. |
