Calvin’s words, “Time exists to show Christ’s glory,” on the title page provides the focus for this small book. Noted Reformation historian J. H.

With the sin remaining within us, we Christians can still make a mess of seeking to obey God. I recently wrote an article regarding the responsibility of Christians to take the Gospel into all the world and to expect ultimate success of the spread of the Gospel prior to Christ’s coming.

Sadly, in seeking to carry out this command we want to do it our way. We get matters confused.  (more)
