The Grace of Christ

The Grace Of Christ by Wm. S. Plumer presents a 19th-century theological defense of unmerited grace in salvation. The work argues that salvation is not a debt owed to humanity but a gracious gift bestowed through the Lord Jesus Christ, accomplished by his atoning death and applied by the Holy Spirit. It surveys the fallen condition of humanity—sin, guilt, and the inability to save oneself—and then unfolds the biblical doctrines of grace: predestination and election, the universal offer of grace to all, justification by faith, the imputed righteousness of Christ, regeneration, sanctification, and the final judgment and eternal glory of the saved. Across its chapters, Plumer emphasizes the sovereignty of God, the sufficiency of Christ’s work, and the necessity of faith and repentance. The volume aims to comfort sinners, exhort believers to holy living, and magnify Christ as the source of forgiveness, life, and everlasting reward.
