Octavius Winslow

From Grace to Glory Octavius Winslow

What does it mean to be born again? Well, to some, this may seem to be a one-time event in their lifetime, commonly identified as "conversion." Winslow does indeed agree with the place conversion takes in the story of redemption, as applied to the individual. However, he puts the whole new birth into a much wider perspective: from grace to glory. He shows that the experience of being born again takes a man from being lost, totally unable to redeem himself, to the place of regeneration. And he does not stop there. He goes then with that man from where he is the recipient of God's astounding grace to... where he is bestowed the eternal glory. This book has been originally published in 1864. Current edition has been proofread, typeset for eBook readers, and slightly updated for modern readers.
