Kinda like... Name That Tune?

I presume, "I found it!" isn't the right answer :))

We can only marvel that Reformed men and women are so soon removed from the truth of God's sovereign, particular, electing love in Jesus Christ, which truth has not only been confessed "by the Reformers and Puritans" before them, but has also been confessed by the Reformed church herself in her Creed, the Canons of Dordt.
Who hath bewitched them?
As for us, we are determined, out of love for the truth, to oppose the lie of a love of God in Jesus Christ for all men without exception; to try to rescue those who have been taken captive by this doctrine; and to preach and testify, near and far, in season and out of season, a love of God for the world that saves the world, a death of the Son of God that redeemed the world, a purpose of God for the saving of sinners that is accomplished, and a salvation of enslaved sinners by the sovereign power of the grace of God alone for the comfort of every believer and the glory of God.

Who has carried off the people into captivity? Who robs God of His glory? Who silences the prophets?

Well, "the gospel is the Power of God unto salvation" would be a good guess except that this is describing one of the benefits of those who believe the gospel and is not either the name of the gospel or expressing the gospel itself.

Gosh, I'm only trying to help those who have lost the gospel. Unfortunately, the Arminian is so set against the TRUTH that they haven't stopped to figure out that they don't have a clue what the gospel IS.

Notice, though, that the acid from our friends is down as they try to figure out what this little grace man is talking about.
