At a meeting several years ago a little girl named Edith heard of the Lord Jesus, and how He died on Calvary’s cross for sinners, so they could go to heaven. She heard also if the sinner didn’t accept Him as Saviour, he or she would be separated from Him in hell for ever. Little Edith thought,
“O, I’ve never done any thing very bad, and my mother and daddy are Chrstians, so I’ll get to heaven somehow.
How wrong this little girl was to think she could get to heaven because mother and father were saved! God’s Word says,
“There is no difference: for all sinned, and have and come short of the glory of God.” Romans 3:23, 24.
“So everyone of us shall give account of himself to God,” Romans 14:12.
We are glad to tell our readers that little Edith did come, as a poor lost sinner to the Saviour, and found in Him a resting place and He made her happy.
“Jesus Christ; Whom having not seen ye love: in Whom, though now see , yet ye see Him not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory.” 1 Peter 1:7,8.
