It is impossible for us to grow in grace and in the knowledge of the Lord while we cling to our own pre-conceptions. The initial requirement in every student of Holy Scriptures is that he shall bow to the authority of the Word and submissively receive at its face value all that God has revealed. We need to approach the Sacred Volume in the attitude of learners, willing to have our own ideas of Truth corrected, and prepared to have our beliefs formed and molded by the teaching of Holy Writ. One of the main hindrances which prevents many of God’s children apprehending Divine truth is that they read the Bible through the eyes of others; they read it with opinions already firmly formed, they read it with prejudicial interest. It is "What saith the Scriptures?" not What does our church teach? not What does our Creed or Catechism say?....we need to approach the Bible with an open mind, willing to be instructed by the One who inspired it, and coming to it in the spirit of the child Samuel saying, "Speak, Lord, for Thy servant heareth." ~ Arthur Pink, 1886-1952 “The Redeemer's Return"

We teach that the sinner is justified before God by faith only, on account of the perfect righteousness of Christ, through the free grace of God...Is not this doctrine the only foundation, and the principal article of the whole Gospel?... Johannes Vanderkemp (1664-1718, Holland) Thomas Watson (1620-1686, England), A Body of Divnity, p. 226 - "Justification is the very hinge and pillar of Christianity. An error about justification is dangerous, like a defect in a foundation. Justification by Christ is a spring of the water of life. To have the poison of corrupt doctrine cast into this spring is damnable."

Attributes and Holiness of God "So in love is Christ with holiness that he will buy it with his blood for us." - John Flavel. "Hence that dread and amazement with which, as Scripture uniformly relates, holy men were struck and overwhelmed whenever they beheld the presence of God... Men are never duly touched and impressed with a conviction of their insignificance until they have contrasted themselves with the majesty of God." - John Calvin. "Power is God’s hand or arm, omniscience is his eye, mercy his bowels, eternity his duration, but holiness is his beauty." - Stephen Charnock, The Existence and Attributes of God. "Any sin is more or less heinous depending upon the honor and majesty of the one whom we had offended. Since God is of infinite honor, infinite majesty, and infinite holiness, the slightest sin is of infinite consequence. The slightest sin is nothing less than cosmic treason when we realize against whom we have sinned." - Jonathan Edwards. "Not all the vials of judgment that have or shall be poured out upon the wicked world, nor the flaming furnace of a sinner’s conscience, nor the irreversible sentence pronounced against the rebellious demons, nor the groans of the damned creatures, give such a demonstration of God’s hatred of sin, as the wrath of God let loose upon his son. Never did Divine holiness appear more beautiful and lovely than at the time our Savior’s countenance was most marred in the midst of his dying groans." - Stephen Charnock, The Existence and Attributes of God.

Obedience flows from the cross, it does not contribute to it. It is a fruit of our union with Christ, not the root. Those who love Christ the most are those who know how much they have been forgiven.

Justification played a significant role in John Calvin’s theology. Calvin wrote that justification is “the main hinge upon which religion turns,” and he believed that a saving relationship with God cannot exist apart from justification. -Thomas R. Schreiner

The Bible: We are warned by the Word both of our duty, our danger, and our remedy. On the sea of life there would be many more wrecks if it were not for the divine storm-signals which give to the watchful a timely warning. The Bible should be our Mentor, our Monitor, our Memento Mori, our Remembrancer, and the Keeper of our Conscience. —Charles Spurgeon The pleasures arising from a right understanding of the divine testimonies are of the most delightful order; earthly enjoyments are utterly contemptible if compared with them. The sweetest joys, yea, the sweetest of the sweetest falls to his portion who has God’s truth to be his heritage. —Charles Spurgeon

Sanctification is that inward spiritual work which the Lord Jesus Christ works in a man by the Holy Spirit when He calls him to be a true believer. He not only washes him from his sins in His own blood, but He also separates him from his natural love of sin and the world, puts a new principle in his heart and makes him practically godly in life. -J. C. Ryle
