A Gospel Primer was written by Milton Vincent as a result of his own struggles with trying to earn God’s favour through good behaviour. We won’t take the time to study it together, but Part IV in A Gospel Primer for Christians is Vincent’s testimony of how his discovery of real gospel freedom in Jesus was the beginning of his writing this book. It’s worth the read.
