All of these soul cheering scriptural promises the author claims and applies to himself. This Brief sket a Lias been written from memory and it May contain some errors As to Date hut As to fact it is Correct. There Are but four or Iive persons living in the county who live resided hero As Long As the author and but three who Are As old. The author of this narrative concludes with a script a us essay on the Economy of salvation giving his views and exit Prience on the subject written and read by him at a ministerial meeting at Taylorsville intl., and published in the guide to holiness in 1s74 Sanctification what is it. It is important to live a Clear and Correct View of the Economy of salvation to know the Way from sin to holiness the Way from Earth to heaven to fully Somji resend what god would have us to know to believe to experience and enjoy in ruler to have his favor Here and his glory Lier after. It is desirable to know tie condition upon which god proposes to acce it the sinner blot out his sins regenerate his nature a purify his heart and qualify him for heaven. There Are several distinct stages in Christian sex Erie All of which Are worthy of our attention and serious Consi Serati n. The first is a conviction of sin. This is a produced Lay the so Virit of god on the heart of the sinner teaching him Liis True state or condition and the danger to which he is exposed. This faithful messenger does his Oitice on every Liepart knocks at every door. He , invites entreats and influences by motives As High As heaven As deep As hell Anil As lasting As infinite duration to to Brake sin and acce t salvation. This experience is irresistible and cannot h it avoided by any. The second stage of exin Rienier is justification. This term in scrip Ture theology sin icily Means Pardon. It is what god does for the sinner ill forgiving his sins. The condition Tipiere of is Faith in the sacrificial hollering of Christ preceded by re enhance Tavard god. The third stage of experience is regeneration or the new birth which takes last at the time of justification and implies a change of heart or f f our mitral character. It is what god works in and through us by influence of his holy so Virit giving us a Disi Ositis n to love serve and obey him. Titis is the beginning of Sanctification Init it is not to in com Cletion of the work. In regeneration All the principles of holiness Are implanted in tie soul As love Joy peace humility meekness and a Atiedu a but they Are not fully Maturell tie carnal mind is not fully destroyed quot and inbred sin or roots of bitterness remain such quot As anger ride covetousness wit i Varia is unholy passions and sensual desires hut under control and May be kept in subjection thi Ough watchfulness and Grace hence an apostle has said quot Liat when i would do Good evil is pres it it with Nie quot and in addressing himself to persons in a Juisti Tineil state says quot be Are yet such is the common experience of regenerate quot nature and it does not require i any argument to in Ove to this class of christians that they Are not fully sanctified that the carnal mind is not entirely destroyed. Thu in daily experience Jirovec the fact to their satisfaction and sorrow. Their exp ii Venct is fluctuating they Are not established sometimes High at other times Low Soin times joyous at other times gloomy. Their Erjie Rienche Corroy a Iraq d liy the Light of divine inspiration and the in hence of the holy spirit teaches them that a subsequent work of Grace is necessary in order to the Possession of that state of holiness that is their High and sex tilted privilege to experience and enjoy. The Foin the stage of Christian experience is entire Sanctify Catton holiness c Hristian perfection or Imrit these several terms being of similar import Meatling the same thing. There is quot no doctrine More mainly taught in the scriptures of truth than entire Sanctification. It May be found on almost every Page of the Lilile by Promise command exhortation and quot Zwayer and is worthy of the attention and serious consideration of All. This Statti in Grace does not imply absolute angelic or Adamic i perfection. It is not an sex i m Ilion from errors mistakes infirmities or temptations. But it docs imply an extermination of inbred sin from the soul a destruction ii of the carnal mind it is being dead to sin and alive to Iod. In other words it is a state of moral purity that makes us at All times a table with god. It is Loving i cd with the whole heart with an undivided la Art. It is when the heart is i Enji tied of and cleansed from All sin and defilement and Filleul with the Constellation of the graces of the is Irit that i litre Sanctification is experienced. The con ili tion thereof is consecration of filience Anil Faith. Consecration is submission to the will and govern it it of cod. Saving Faith is a Hearty bold and confiding Trust in the merits of Christ. It is mid Init Trust Reliance or Confidence in the word of foil and the no rits of Christ j or tires edit salvation. T est Assiut de god always saves the moment True Faith is Xei cited. It is not to be sought As a gradual but As an instant Nelt us work. Ltd can cleanse tie soul from sin an Ltd fill it wit i love in a moment and he is always Al be and willing to impart this full and free a salvation to All who ardently and sincerely desire to have it and will it Ltd his terms. Such a state is More desirable than the wealth Lumores or a pleasures of the world and Shodd be the experience of All christians with out delay. The fifth stage of Christian sex pm hence is to cultivate and mature the Christian graces. It is alter the heart is emptied and cleansed from All sin and defilement Flat we Are Callaci on and Rei paired to a perfect holiness in the fear of go Ltd by serving him with a single Eye and an undivided heart. To grow in Grace and in quot the knowledge an l love of god is to cultivate improve and mtr Engelk a the Christian Grace. This May be done Onich More successfully in a Sanc tilled than in a justified Relatia it a to f a of. Ave Are exhorted to add to our Faith Virt Vui an Ltd to virtue All the graces of the spirit to be Strong in the lord and in the Xaver of his might that we May become mature christians Ripe in the Kuoch Geof god and in the great and glorious mysteries of salvation. Full and ample provision is made in the atonement for this sex x Rie iii a and the terms Are so easy Plain and simple that All through Grace May comply with the conditions and obtain the Joearl of great Price. The motives to holiness Are almost innumerable but a i it Rincie Al and leading motive is god commands and re it quires it and when god Speaks Man should obey As none of his commands Are imposed to restrain us in the Pursuit of happiness but Are intended for Oil present Good and future Felicity. By obeying All Good is secur etl by disobeying All Good is forfeited in time and in eternity. The glory of god the salvation of souls our personal Hai it iness usefulness and safety Are so Many motives to luge us on to the Possession of this heavenly treasure. Tie st nos the harps and Hyms of the redeemed in leave ii and the groans of the lost in the regions of despair Are so Many voices inviting us to be holy. Sublime privilege exalted state the life of god in the soul of Man and the glory of god As the object and end of that life a principle Imi it wanted in the heart by the spirit of a Fol that brings our tempers words thoughts and actions in subjection to the will and government of god. St. Paul prays that such May be the experience of a christians in every age quot that Christ May dwell in your hearts by Faith that be being rooted and grounded in love May be Able to comprehend with All saints what is the breadth and length and depth and height and to know the love of Christ a Vicli pass eth knowledge that be might be filled with All the fullness of Eph. Iii 17, 18 19. To be filled with god is to be filled with Light for god is Light. To be filled with him is to be filled with love for god is love and he that Dwe Wetli in love dwell eth in god and cod in him. To be filled with god is to be filled with Consolation peace and Joy. Reader it is your duty and exalted privilege to have the character and experience above named. It is More valuable and should be More highly appreciated than any earthly consideration. It is More desirable than the Avealt or honors of the world. It is a qualification for peace Joy and Hai Pine amps Here and heaven an Ltd glory Lier after. It is attic enable on the easy terms of the gospel. I Rayer repentance and Faith will secure a justified state. Prayer consecration and Faith will secure the Blessing of entire Sanctification. God is at All times Able ready and villing to quot Confer spiritual gifts upon All who will accept them on gospel terms. fac Parn Polh cont Ninf the above no Para he Ohui Arn of inks.
