"God showed us how much a soul is worth by the purchase price he paid. It cost him dearly, and that which is so hard won will not be easily given up. He spent his son's blood to purchase you, and he will spend his own power to keep you."
William Gurnall, The Christian in Complete Armour, Banner of Truth, Vol. 1 of the abridged set, p. 48
This truth has power to reach the most hopeless of souls, especially those of a disconsolate spirit, who are tempted to think God has no regard for them. I also love the truth of God fighting for that which he has purchased. He will not give up one (John 6.39) of his blood-bought church.
