Since you believe that your destiny is in the hands of God and that you can do nothing about it, does this not cause you a great deal of anxiety? No, there is far greater peace and comfort in knowing that our case is in the Lord's hands than in thinking it is in our own (Titus 3:5-7). Do the Primitive Baptists believe in preaching the gospel to sinners? Yes, because the only people in the world interested in the gospel of grace are poor, needy sinners. A man must be made sensible of his sin by the Spirit, must be born again to receive the gospel message (Luke 5:31-32; 1 Corinthians 2:14). The gospel is addressed to the burdened sinner (Matthew 11:28-30). Do you call upon men to repent and believe? Yes, the burdened sinner ought to repent and believe the truth. The one who thus repents, believes and is baptized is going to be saved from the distress he feels and from much error and confusion. (Mark 16:16). The salvation involved here is not that which takes a man to Heaven, but that which saves his life in this world (Acts 2:40).
