Sovereign Grace
by D.L. Moody, 1891
[This old book, published in 1891, was found on our church library shelves. The pages are crumbling into dust. To save this valuable evangelistic resource, the entire book was scanned, reformated and posted for your use. It is an excellent presentation of salvation doctrine and the doctrine of grace. Original page numbering is included in parentheses and Bible indexes have also been inserted where appropriate. Other than these changes, all the text is as found in the original].

IN the exercise of his high calling, the faithful ambassador of Christ must not scruple to declare the whole counsel of God -" rightly dividing the word of truth," to all classes of hearers. He must warn the openly wicked man that if he persists in his evil courses, the just judgments of God will inevitably overtake him; he must unmask the hypocrite; he must utter no uncertain protest against the crooked and devious ways of the self-seeker and the time-server. But if he enters into the Spirit of his Master, no part of his public work will be more congenial or delightful than the proclamation of the full, free, and SOVEREIGN GRACE of God, manifested towards sinful men in the gift of His Eternal Son, to be the Saviour of the world.
It has been my happy privilege in years past to tell out, as best I could, this wonderful story of redeeming grace. The following pages record the addresses I have given on the various aspects of this great subject. I pray God that in their printed form they may serve to deepen in the mind of the reader the appreciation of this grace, at once so infinite and so undeserved.
The chapter entitled "A Chime of Gospel Bells," though not strictly flowing out of the general subject, is in perfect harmony with it; every note in the chime is intended to ring out the gracious invitation to "Come" to the God of all grace and be blessed. The Dialogues which form the latter part of the book were heard with much interest and profit at some of the London meetings; I think the perusal of them will be helpful in removing many of the hindrances that prevent anxious inquirers from accepting without delay the salvation that God in His grace has provided for the sinful children of men.
