1. We cannot love first. Therefore God comes, takes hold of the heart, and says: "Learn to know me."
  2. Now, if there were another way to heaven, doubtless, he would have made it known to us.
  3. Love is to be the interpreter of law. Where there is no love, these things are meaningless, and law begins to do harm.
  4. Christ teaches that we are not lost, but have eternal life. That God has so loved us that he allowed the ransom to cost him his only beloved child.
  5. I venture to assert I have never read, in the entire Scriptures, words more beautifully expressive of the grace of God than these two children words.
