There can be no grace when there is no sovereignty by Horatius Bonar

There can be no grace when there is no sovereignty. Deny God’s right to choose whom He will and you deny His right to save whom He will. Deny His right to save whom He will and you deny that salvation is of grace. If salvation is made to hinge upon any merit or fitness in man, seen or foreseen, grace is at an end.

- Horatius Bonar 

The Reign of Grace, Preface, 1844.
