    INTRODUCTION

    GRACE ABOUNDING

    BY THE REV. C. H. SPURGEON

    I will love them freely.

I know it is written, "Come, buy wine and milk, but is it not added, Without money and without price? I will love them freely. That is, I will not accept their works in barter for My love; I will not receive their love as
