DIVINE RIGHTS
DIVINE RIGHTS
The principles which claim the rights of God here in the world are only known to the one who has the Holy Spirit. The foundations are destroyed and the refuge of the righteous is in the Holy Spirit.
[p. 308] If divine rights are let go you have no security for anything. If there is no such thing as righteousness there is no such Being as God, and if there is no such thing as sin and righteousness there is no such thing as judgment; they are all correlative expressions; and if these principles are not maintained, it simply puts God out altogether. They are principles which are consequent upon the existence of God. The foundation cannot be destroyed, the Holy Spirit gives us the sense of this.
It is useless to talk of glorifying Christ and all that, if you have not got the principles that maintain the rights of God.
