  Free Gifts, Way, Salvation

  Mark Hopkins (1837). “Sermons”

• The very act of faith by which we receive Christ is an act of the utter renunciation of self, and all its works, as a ground of salvation. It is really a denial of self, and a grounding of its arms in the last citadel into which it can be driven, and is, in its principle, inclusive of every subsequent act of self-denial by which sin is forsaken or overcome.

  Self, Overcoming, Principles

  MARK HOPKINS (1862). “BACCALAUREATE SERMONS, AND OCCASIONAL DISCOURSES”, p.89

The only salvation for man is in the union of the two as Christianity unites them.
