FIRST THINGS
By Gardiner Spring
VOLUME 2 • CHAPTER 15
The First Act of Discriminating Grace.
God’s truth is always the same. Moses was as staunch a believer in the doctrines of grace as Paul; nay, Paul himself refers to Moses as himself inculcating the great doctrine of God’s discriminating grace. There are those who would fain have us believe that there is no such thing. So the devil taught our credulous mother, when, with impudent and lying tongue, he uttered the words, “Thou shalt not surely die.” There are those also who would have us carried away by the modern notion, that God saves all he is able to save; and that if any are lost, it is because his almighty power cannot convert them. If this theory were true, instead of uttering the language, “I will have mercy upon whom I will have mercy,” we should somewhere have heard him say, I will have mercy upon whom I am able to have mercy.
It is not the most popular theme, when we speak of God’s discriminating grace; yet it is very early brought to our consideration, and well deserves to be regarded as among the “first things” revealed by his Spirit.
Cain and Abel were brothers; the evidence from the sacred writings would seem to justify the conclusion, that they were twin brothers. Yet, how great was the difference in their characters! They were born with the same corrupt and totally depraved nature; they enjoyed the same parental solicitude, and the same religious nurture; yet the one was the confiding, the dutiful child of God, the other was a deist and a murderer. Whence this difference? and who made it?
They are some of the “deep things of God” to which these inquiries conduct us; but we have no sympathy with those who, in this time-serving age, deem them unprofitable things, and unfitting the pulpit or the press. We confess ourselves wearied with this dwarfish theology; nor do we expect to see the church of God putting on her garments of strength and salvation, until her pulpits become more manly in asserting the great peculiarities of the Christian faith, and her presses, instead of “making a gain of godliness,” deem “godliness with contentment great gain.”......................
