A Confession of Faith

From: Messages of God's Love: 1935

Narrator: Chris Genthree

THANK Jesus that He was punished instead of me.” Such was a little girl’s confession of faith in Christ. It was simple, yet expressive; brief, but full of truth and meaning. It contained the sum of the glad tidings of salvation through a crucified Christ.

“He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities; the chastisement of our peace was upon Him; and with His stripes we are healed.” Isa. 58:5⁵Is it such a fast that I have chosen? a day for a man to afflict his soul? is it to bow down his head as a bulrush, and to spread sackcloth and ashes under him? wilt thou call this a fast, and an acceptable day to the Lord? (Isaiah 58:5).
