Overview
Using comparison with the Gospels, John Cumming introduces salvation and vindication by grace—through inherent faith in the sacrifice. Cumming expresses that as Christians while we receive grace through faith in the sacrifice of Christ, the Israelites’ faith in blood sacrifice led to similar vindication.
