A Plea

We would ask in earnest love that cares for your immortal soul, "Are your sins forgiven? Are you saved,, now, and for eternity?" Say not, "I am doing my best; my hope of heaven is in the mercy of God and in my religious life." No, the Book says, "God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life." John 3:1616For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. (John 3:16). Such love says nothing of doing; it is all grace and asks nothing but faith. Then the doing will take care of itself.
“Be ye therefore ready also:
for the Son of man cometh at
an hour when ye think not.”
