"In his sermons, Samuel Medley directly addressed the unconverted. He is sometimes presented as a High Calvinist and perhaps he was of a sort, although I don’t think we have enough sermon material to make that judgment. Being limited to only two specimen sermons is inadequate. But what is clear from those two is that he did not ignore those outside of Christ.

Listen in as he calls to them while extolling what he called God’s “sparing goodness”, that is, his long-suffering toward sinners."

These men lived at the same time and spent their early adult years at sea. Both were saved in dramatic circumstances, and both became pastors and hymn writers. And much less importantly, the drawings and paintings of them made during their lifetimes show them wearing the same style of wig!

"J C Ryle - Assurance of Salvation - From the book Holiness."

In this episode we continue to consider Chapter 15 of the Confessionwhich takes up the important subject “Of Repentance unto Life.”Paragraph 3 provides a wonderful definition of repentance which can beillustrated by means of the analogy of a tree with soil, roots, trunk andbranches, and finally fruit.
