A Puritan at Heart

Daily quote from the puritans

The chain of Salvation

Our spiritual estate standeth upon a sure bottom, the beginning is from God the Father, the dispensation from the Son, and the application from the Holy Ghost…It is free in the Father, sure in the Son, ours in the Spirit; the Father purposeth, the Son ratifieth, the Spirit gives the enjoyment of all…Election is ascribed to God the Father, sanctification to the Spirit, and reconciltion to Jesus Christ…This is the chain of salvation and never a link of this chain must be broken. The Son cannot die for them whom the Father never elected, and the Spirit will never sanctify them whom the Father hath not elected nor the Son redeemed. [Thomas Manton]
