Concerning the Work of Christ, through which Grace Reigns

"It is a righteousness already performed. It is not something now to be wrought in us, by the operation of the Holy Spirit. No; it was completed when the divine Redeemer cried, 'It is finished, and gave up the ghost.' But here, many persons fall into a fatal mistake. Ready they are to imagine, that sinners are accepted of God in virtue of righteousness wrought in them, through the assistance of the Holy Spirit; which assistance, they suppose, was purchased for them by the death of Christ. . . . But, at that awful and ever-memorable period, when he bowed his head and expired, [Christ], by himself alone, perfectly finished that righteousness which is the proper condition, and the grand requisite of our justification."

This quote comes from Chapter XII, "Concerning the Work of Christ, through which Grace Reigns," in the Works of Abraham Booth, Volume 2. Hardcover, acid-free paper, 326 pages, indexed, $27.
