Here are some queries, held forth in love to thee, reader, to bring thee into a true sense in many weighty matters. They are not of a confounding (unless it be to that part which is not to know), but of an opening nature; they were sweet to my taste, which (as in God's presence, and by the virtue of... Lee mas

"He gave His only-begotten Son."-- Jn. 3: 16. That word "gave" has in it the force of "gave up". As an old commentator says. "God not only gave His Son to the world, but for it".

Galatians 6:12. "The truth," or the doctrine of the Son, as the Lord Himself teaches us (John 8: 32-36), sets free all those who receive it.
