The Sum of the Gospel
The sum of the gospel is this, that all who, by true repentance and faith, do foresake the flesh, the world and the devil, and give themselves up to God the Father, the Son, and Holy Spirit, as their Creator, Redeemer and Sanctifier, shall find God as a father, taking them for his reconciled children, and for Christ’s sake pardoning their sin, and by his Spirit give them grace; and, if they perservere in this course, will finally glorify them, and bestow upon them everlasting happiness; but will condemn the unbelievers, impenitent, and ungodly to everlasting punishment. that this is the sum of the Gospel appeareth by Mark 15:15-16: “Go preach the gospel to every creature. He that believeth not shall be damned”;– where you have all the Christian religion laid before you in one short view and propsect. [Thomas Manton]
