Excerpt: ...he was urging many, perhaps the majority, of his hearers to do that which was simply impossible for them--that he was consequently asserting infinitely more than could properly be asserted. When referring to the death of Christ, he alzuays mere/_r ajirms that Christ died for all, although this, if the fruit of His death was absolutely denied to so many, could no longer have any significance.

The two conceptions may, therefore, be harmonized by maintaining that God, who is at all events essentially and fundamentally power, nevertheless, as is however revealed to us only in the Gospel, under the promptings of His heart employs His power only in sincere love.
