Personal Acceptance. (Psa. 66:1616Come and hear, all ye that fear God, and I will declare what he hath done for my soul. (Psalm 66:16)). We must be in the sense of what grace has done for us, to be duly qualified to speak of that grace to others. As a fixed principle we should never speak of anything beyond that which our faith has grasped, in measure at least. (2 Cor. 4:1313We having the same spirit of faith, according as it is written, I believed, and therefore have I spoken; we also believe, and therefore speak; (2 Corinthians 4:13)). Forgiveness of sins, deliverance from sin, our being in Christ as to our standing, and in the Spirit as to our new character as Christians before God; in these we ought to be thoroughly versed; depend upon it our converts will never be clear if we are not clear ourselves.
