Quote from the 4th chapter in The Death of Legal Hope - Works of Abraham Booth, V2

20th Mar 2024

"The law, as a husband, was once alive, and had dominion over you; now it is dead. Ye also were once alive to the law but are now become dead to it. Having seen its infinite purity and felt its killing power, you were obliged to acknowledge that you could not be justified by it. Reluctantly ye quitted your self-righteous hopes; but, having heard the glorious gospel, and being by the sacred Spirit enabled to behold the body of Christ; . . . with the utmost readiness ye renounced your own righteousness. Having found Jesus, the pearl of great price, and in him all that you need, ye freely relinquished your former pleas. Thus, ye became dead to the law, that ye should be married to another and a better husband; even to him who died on the cross to atone for your sins and is raised from the dead to present you complete." 

A quote from the chapter entitled "Of the Law, as Dead to Believers" in our latest book - The Works of Abraham Booth, Volume 2, edited by Zachary Williams. This volume contains two of Booth's works: 1. The Reign of Grace and 2. The Death of Legal Hope.
