Benefits of Seeking Salvation

No. 301

Though there be not promise to any seekers of grace but gracious ones, yet there must be a greater probability of their conversion who seek—though not after a gracious manner, though they are not thorough and sufficiently resolved in seeking—than of others who wholly neglect their salvation; or not so great an unlikelihood of it, upon these accounts. The more persons seek their salvation, the less sin they commit; for there is no way of seeking, but only avoiding sins of omission and commission: and surely, the more persons sin and provoke God, the more are they exposed to his wrath, and so to be denied his mercy. - WJE 18:83
