Pàgina 35 - How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of him that bringeth good tidings, that publisheth peace; that bringeth good tidings of good, that publisheth salvation; that saith unto Zion, Thy God reigneth! Thy watchmen shall lift up the voice; with the voice together shall they sing; for they shall see eye to eye, when the Lord shall bring again Zion.
Pàgina 10 - Christ alone, without the help of any man, book, or writing. For though I read the Scriptures that spake of Christ and of God, yet I knew Him not, but by revelation, as He who hath the key did open, and as the Father of Life drew me to His Son by His Spirit.
Pàgina 4 - Him hath GOD exalted with his right hand ' to be a PRINCE and a SAVIOUR, to give repentance to ' Israel, and forgiveness of sins.
Pàgina 4 - Nevertheless, as we firmly believe it was necessary that Christ should come, that by his death and sufferings he might offer up himself a sacrifice to God for our sins, who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree ; so we believe that the remission of sins which any partake of, is only in and by virtue of that most satisfactory sacrifice, and no otherwise.

Pàgina 16 - As then inward prayer is necessary at all times, so, so long as the day of every man's visitation lasteth, he never wants some influence, less or more, for the practice of it ; because he no sooner retires his mind, and considers himself in God's presence, but he finds himself in the practice of it.
Pàgina 10 - Christ to destroy sin and to guide them in obedience to the light, shall come to know the only true God and Father of light in Christ Jesus, who is the way to him. And this I witness to all the sons of men, that the knowledge of eternal life I came not to by the letter of the Scripture, nor by hearing men speak of the name of God. I came to the true knowledge of the Scriptures and the eternal rest which they...
Pàgina 15 - ... as our worship consisteth not in words, so neither in silence, as silence, but in an holy dependence of the mind upon God: from which dependence silence necessarily follows in the first place, until words can be brought forth which are from God's spirit.
