Read the Introduction by Rev. Robert Maguire, D. D.

White Flag

"The White Flag.—And now commence the dispensations of God in his dealings with the soul. He begins with Mercy. Justice makes the first demands; but Mercy makes the first advance. Man is advertised, by the White Flag, that IMMANUEL is even yet minded to deliver the soul, if the soul will but be delivered. If this offer be accepted, all is well; but if it be rejected, it will but increase the sinner’s condemnation."[2]
