DESCRIPTION
------------------------------------------------------------------------

Anne Dutton preaches about the overwhelming grace of God towards
sinners, emphasizing her own unworthiness and the abundant mercy she
receives through the sacrifice of Christ. She acknowledges her lowly
state but rejoices in being treated as a beloved child and royalty by
God. Dutton finds solace in the fact that salvation is entirely by
grace, perfectly suiting her wretched condition, and she delights in
living under the reign of grace that leads to eternal life through Jesus
Christ.

Dear Brother,

Never was a poor sinner more unworthy of favor from God or His people
than myself. I deserve not a name and a place among the children, but am
as vile as a dog, and would be glad for crumbs of mercy that fall from
the children's table. But such is the free grace of God towards me,
through the slain Lamb, that He deals with me as a child, a dear child,
and feasts me as a prince with Him according to the royalty, the dignity
of His own infinite state. If salvation in all its parts were not all of
grace, it would not suit such a wretched, miserable sinner as I am.

But oh, blessed be God, there is salvation enough for me in Christ to be
had of the freest grace--of grace in which there is no scantiness, but
an immense and eternal fullness to fill my needy soul, through all time
and to eternity! And glad am I, under all my sins, miseries and needs,
to live under the reign of grace--of this grace which reigns through
righteousness unto eternal life by Jesus Christ my Lord!
