The things that are written and that are preached by us concerning salvation in our Lord Jesus Christ are not only written and preached to encourage sinners to believe him and come to him that they might be saved, but the gospel is written and preached to you who believe that you may have confidence and assurance of your interest in Christ, and having come to him, you are still coming. How is faith confirmed? How is faith increased? Even by the preaching of the gospel, by having the person and work, the righteousness and sacrifice of our Lord explained to us again. Eternal life is to be found nowhere but in Christ. And in order that those who are already in Christ through faith might have assurance and grow in grace and the knowledge of him, the preacher is to magnify over and over again the gospel of the glory of our blessed Lord!
