The heart of the Christian gospel is the glorious truth of God's mercy to men. Nevertheless, knowing this truth is not enough. We must pursue a godly life because of what Christ has done.
In this selection from the writings of Thomas Watson, we are given a biblical picture of practical Christian living.
When Thomas Watson first wrote this material, the Bible was under as much attack as it is today and the solutions have not changed. Living in the light, and conducting ourselves in a manner fitting for sons and daughters of the King is a sure recipe for personal happiness. It will also hae a profound effect on the society in which we live.
