And then we find everything prepared that our wants require or our wishes conceive; yea, that He has done exceedingly beyond what we could either ask or think. Salvation is wholly of the Lord and bears those signatures of infinite wisdom, power, and goodness which distinguish all His works from the puny imitations of men. It is every way worthy of Himself, a great, a free, a full, a sure salvation. It is great whether we consider the objects ( miserable, hell-deserving sinners ), the end ( the restoration of such alienated creatures to His image and favor, to immortal life and happiness ) or the means ( the incarnation, humiliation, sufferings and death of His beloved Son
