That is the message of these 18 readings (written 1881-1902) on the topic of salvation. The gem of the collection is an 1890 manuscript; perhaps Ellen White's most definitive statement on justification by faith; written during the theological ferment that followed that Minneapolis General Conference of 1888. While emphasizing the importance of obedience; she wrote; "It is not possible to effect anything in our standing before God or in the gift of God to us through creature merit. . . . Justification is wholly of grace and not procured by any works that fallen man can do. . . . Any works that man can render to God will be far less than nothingness." This volume portrays a God of grace who embraces every sinful; struggling soul who accepts His offer of righteousness by faith
