INTRODUCTION
Fully convinced in my own mind that the
doctrine of repentance is the missing note in many otherwise
orthodox and fundamentally sound circles today, I have penned
this volume out of a full heart. I hope and pray that God will
be pleased to use it to awaken many of His servants to the
importance of seeking so to present His truth as to bring men to
the only place where He can meet them in blessing. That place is
the recognition of their own demerit and absolute unworthiness
of His least mercies and a new conception of His saving power
for all who come to Christ as lost sinners, resting alone upon
His redemptive work for salvation, and depending upon the
indwelling Holy Spirit to make them victorious over sin's power
in daily life.
The pages have been written during a
busy summer, as I have gone from place to place trying to preach
and teach the very truths herein emphasized. Most of the book
was scribbled out in Pullman cars while speeding from one
appointment to another. If there seems at times to be lack of
continuity of thought, I hope the manifest defects of the
treatise may not hinder the reader from getting the message I
have endeavored to set forth as clearly as possible, under
difficult circumstances.
I have not written for literary critics
or for theological quibblers, but for earnest people who desire
to know the will of God and to do it. And so I send forth this
book, in dependence on Him who has said, "Cast thy bread upon
the waters: and thou shalt find it after many days." If He be
pleased to use it to arouse some at least to a deeper sense of
the importance of reality in dealing with souls, I shall be
grateful.
