Faith
Religion is a living process. When the Spirit takes hold of a man to transform him into a child of grace, working faith in him, and opening his eyes to see the boundless riches of grace, the work goes on continually. There is growth of knowledge, faith, and hope. The more the spiritual process advances, the more does religion become distinguished from all its outward forms, and attain likeness to the infinite benevolence of God.

Synopsis
"John Owen (1616-1683) wrote "The Doctrine of the Saints Perseverance Explained and Confirmed", which he subtitled also. The certain permanency of their acceptation with God and their sanctification from God manifested and proved, in 1654. Here is a modern English version of the same, somewhat abridged. The book was a reply to the erroneous teaching of a certain Mr John Goodwin. But Owen writes: 'The confutation of Mr Goodwin was but secondarily in my eye; the best way for that I judged to consist in a full Scriptural confirmation of the truth he opposed. That I chiefly intended; and therein I hope the pious reader may, through the grace of God, meet with satisfaction.'"
