Observations Regarding Baptism

vanhetloo_baptism.jpgGod leaves much unreported, not to encourage our speculation, but probably to suggest to us that some things are not terribly important.

God Made Me For Himself
by Henry W. Baker

God made me for Himself, to serve Him here
With love’s pure service and in filial fear;
To show His praise, for Him to labor now;
Then see His glory where the angels bow.
All needful grace was mine, through His dear Son,
Whose life and death my full salvation won;
The grace that would have strengthened me, and taught;
Grace that would crown me when my work was wrought.
