Who is the Right Calvinist, and who is the Right Arminian?
They are such as believe what the Scriptures have said,And, trusting in Jesus, follow Him as their head;
[illeg.] godhead adore; His atonement and blood
Their discharge from the Law and the Justice of god.
They believe all have sinn'd, and come short of the grace
That's sufficient for all (tho' it save not) the race.
They alike do believe, and, believing, do prove
Their faith by a life of obedience and love.
And tho' they divide, 'tis scarce more than in name:
[illeg.] tho' their creed differ, their Faith is the same.
[illeg.] this then's the case, why should Saints disagree,
[illeg.] quarrel with them, or they quarrel with me?
[illeg.] all have one father, one Saviour, and Friend,
[illeg.] spirit thro' life, and one hope in its end!
