In vain do we seek to awaken our churches to zeal in evangelism as a separate thing. To be genuine it must flow from love to Christ. It is when a sense of personal communion with the Son of God is highest that we shall be most fit for missionary work, either ourselves or to stir up others.
Archibald Alexander (Theologian, 1772 -1851)
Do not for a moment suppose that you must make yourself better, or prepare your heart for a worthy reception of Christ, but come at once – come as you are.
Archibald Alexander (Theologian, 1772 – 1851)
All my theology is reduced to this narrow compass – “Jesus Christ came into the world to save sinners.”
Archibald Alexander (Theologian, 1772 – 1851)
But however long you may have continued in rebellion, and how ever black and long the catalog of your sins, yet if you will now turn to God by a sincere repentance, and believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, you shall not be cast out.
Archibald Alexander (Theologian, 1772 – 1851)
No one was ever saved because his sins were small; no one was ever rejected on account of the greatness of his sins. Where sin abounded, grace shall much more abound.
Archibald Alexander (Theologian, 1772 – 1851)
