R T Kendall on the Gospel and Law

"The gospel was virtually complete in itself in Abraham before the Law came in. The plan of salvation is given as though there had never been the Law in the first place. We are saved by faith alone ... we are not saved because we are now going to keep the Law. We are now going to keep the Law. We are not saved because we are now going to stop doing this and that ... if that continues to be our way of trying to get saved then we will never be saved".
