Excerpt from The Methodist Magazine, Vol. 8: Designed as a Compend of Useful Knowledge, and of Religious and Missionary Intelligence, for the Year of Our Lord, 1825 For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour; who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth. For there is one God, and one Mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time. IN these and the preceding verses, the apostle enjoins a most important duty, prayer for all sorts, states, and conditions of men and this he recommends by motives and arguments the strongest that can be conceived. I will, therefore, that sup, plications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men, that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty. For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour, who will have all men to be saved and come to the knowledge of the truth.
