Draft selections — awaiting the founder’s edit.

He calls them the faithful in Christ Jesus, believers in him, and firm and constant in their adherence to him and to his truths and ways. Those are not saints who are not faithful, believing in Christ, firmly adhering to him, and true to the profession they make of relation to their Lord.

Matthew Henry· Commentary on the Whole Bible, 1710puritan
