“Salvation is of the Lord” (Jonah 2:9); but the Lord does not save all. Why not? He does save some; then if He saves some, why not others? Is it because they are too sinful and depraved? No; for the apostle wrote, “This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief” (1 Tim. 1:15). Therefore, if God saved the “chief” of sinners, none are excluded because of their depravity. Why then does not God save all? Is it because some are too stony-hearted to be won? No; because of the most stony-hearted people of all it is written, that God will yet “take the stony heart out of their flesh, and will give them a heart of flesh” (Ezek. 11:19). Then is it because some are so stubborn, so intractable, so defiant that God is unable to woo them to Himself? Before we answer this question let us ask another; let us appeal to the experience of the Christian reader. In this moving article, Arthur Pink explains how each person of the Trinity; Father, Son, and Holy Spirit contributes to the salvation of sinners. Truly, salvation is ALL OF GOD, to His ineffable glory. This is a genuine "gem" and one that is most edifying and enjoyable to the soul. You can read it here: The Sovereignty of God in Salvation. In His service and grace,
simul iustus et peccator
