Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Matthew 6:10. Answer. God will have all men to he saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth: for there is one God, and one Mediator, between God and man, the man Christ Jesus who gave himself a ransom for all. 1 Timothy 2:4-6. Therefore he is not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. 2 Peter 3:9. Ezekiel 13:20-23.
O the inestimable riches of universal grace! This minute, O my distressed soul, thou canst lay hold on them, and firmly believe this promise to belong even to thee, and that thy lovely Saviour is as willing, as he is able to save thee from all thy sins. Whatever objections may be raised against it, and engross thy thoughts, hearken not to them, but resolutely reject them as the most detestable suggestions of the devil, who above all things, fights most against faith, knowing well enough that unbelief is the source of all wickedness. Therefore, mind him not, he is a liar. But the word of God may be depended upon: hence thou mayest confidently say, that I am exceedingly corrupted, is too true; but not beyond the infinite grace and power of God. Still I am a man: and he being willing that no man should perish, but that all should be saved; this his will is to me, the surest pledge of my justification, sanctification, and salvation. It is his will, and it is mine too, that I should be saved: what enemy then can hinder it?
But O my soul, for ever praise,
For ever love his name.
Who turns thy feet from dangerous ways
Of folly, sin, and shame.
