Dear Friend and Fellow-Traveler,

As I sit down to write, I can write on no other theme but the soul’s salvation, and my heart is particularly burdened for those persons who know the Truth — who know the great doctrines of the Bible and are very orthodox and sound outwardly — but the heart has never been touched by the divine call from the Lord God of Heaven. It is not my business to let such souls rest, but to trouble, to shake, to cause them to doubt and fear before God, that they might get a glimpse of their real condition. Then such dear ones will become, not empty professors, but humble seekers after the Lord and beggars for His mercy! And as I write to you, I know not the state of your soul but I do know that a searching will not tear down but will strengthen a true believer.


In this series of five "letters", the author writes on the grand theme of salvation in Christ Jesus from various perspectives and deals with several aspects of it. He writes these letters to those who are far from God, being yet dead in trespasses and sins, to those who know God but who have shrunk back and have not maintained an intimate relationship with Christ and to those who have a desire to gain more of Christ and deepen their assurance. Thus these letters are directed to everyone and there is therefore something of value to be gleaned from them regardless of who you are or in what spiritual condition you are currently in.

In His service and grace,
