Channels of Redemption

PRAYER. My Savior, You have left me the
Sacraments as a means of increasing Your grace in
my soul. Let me always be grateful.

IT is certain from Scripture that the gift of
reconciliation is not conveyed to individuals
except through appointed ordinances.
Sacraments are the channels of the peculiar
Christian privileges, and not merely seals of the
covenant.
Though Christ has purchased inestimable
blessings for our race, yet it is still necessary to
apply them to individuals by visible means.
