OH 16:31{Settle that; and then what follows? Hear another word of the Faithful Witness. Remember, it is no less true than His other words. The holy lips that said on the cross, "It is finished," spoke nothing that could deceive or mislead. "Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth My word and believeth on Him that sent Me hath everlasting life." What does this mean? Just what it says, and nothing less! It means that even if you never believed before even if you never had a spark of faith or glimmer of hope before-yet if you have now given your heart-assent to Jesus and His finished work, you have now everlasting life! That heart-assent is believing; and "He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life." And this "believing" is "coming"; and thus coming, you shall find for yourself that all things are indeed ready.
Reality! Reality!
Such let our adoration be!
Father, we bless Thee with heart and voice,
For the wondrous grace of Thy sovereign choice,
That patiently, gently, sought us out.
In the far-off land of death and doubt,
That drew us to Christ by the Spirit's might,
That opened our eyes to see the light
That arose in strange reality,
From the darkness falling on Calvary.
