 "The way to get into grace is simply to believe and trust in Christ the AL mighty. See Him on the cross and think what He suffered for us and give yourself to Him. Some plants grow more than others: in the same way some men grow in grace more than | others. We do not believe in being saved today and lost tomorrow, for once in the kingdom of grace always in it. If I have the feeling that I am in grace then comes the other feeling that l am saved.
 | God is not pleased with anything but our very best. We ought to want to grow in grace that we might be used most effectively in His great work. concealed in the ligu, of man, who IS in grace cannot grow. He believes he Is deceivng the church and its peo- pie. and he may be-. but he is not de- ceiving our Lord.
