Quotes by Samuel Irenæus Prime

Relying on the atonement which Christ has made, and desiring to be saved in no other way, I commit myself into Thy hands, O God, my Father! Take me, and do with me as Thou seest to be for Thy glory. I consecrate myself forever to Thy service, and trust for acceptance in the merits of Thy Son.

This is faith; a simple trust in the power and willingness of the Father to forgive, for the sake of what Christ the Son has done.
