Quais são os efeitos próprios do Evangelho?

IV. What  Are The Proper Effects of the Gospel?

The proper
effects of the gospel are:

1. Faith;
because "faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of
God." "The gospel is the ministration of the Spirit."
"The power of God unto salvation." (Rom. 10: 17. 2 Cor. 3:
8. Rom. 1: 16.)

2. Through
faith, our entire conversion to God, justification, regeneration and
salvation; for through faith we receive Christ, with all his
benefits.

V. From
What Does The Truth of the Gospel Appear?

The truth
of the gospel appears:

1. From
the testimony of the Holy Ghost.

2. From
the prophecies which were uttered by the prophets.

3. From
the fulfillment of these prophecies, which took place under the New
Testament dispensation.

4. From
the miracles by which the doctrine of the gospel was confirmed.

5. By
   the testimony of the gospel itself; because it alone shows the way
   of escape from sin, and ministers solid comfort to the wounded
   conscience.
