Responsibility and free choice in salvation
God in His word addresses us as free to choose our course and control our auction. It must be in order to responsibility. If any man fails of salvation it is his own fault. The needed grace is at hand. The infinite love and mercy waits. Whatever the influence of others, whatever the conditions in which we may be placed, the call of God is to us, and the answer to it is within our choice and free act. The responsibility of eternity is upon us. United Presbyterian.
