Are you sure you are on the right way? Do you know where you must go for the pardon of your sins? Do you know where forgiveness is to be found? There is a way both sure and plain, and into that way I desire to guide you.
The right way is simply to trust in the Lord Jesus Christ as your Savior. It is to cast your soul with all its sins unreservedly on Christ to cease completely from any dependence on your own works, either in whole or in part, and to rest on no work but Christ's work; no righteousness but Christ's righteousness; no merit but Christ's merit, as your ground of hope. Take this course and you are a pardoned soul.
The Lord Jesus Christ, in great love and compassion, has made a complete satisfaction for sin, by his suffering and death upon the Cross. There He was offered as a sacrifice for our sins. There He allowed the wrath of God, which we deserved, to fall on His own head. For our sins He gave Himself, suffered and died—the Just for the unjust, the Innocent for the guilty, that He might deliver us from the curse of a broken law, and provide a full unqualified pardon for all who are willing to receive it.
"Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and thou shalt be saved." Acts 16:3131And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house. (Acts 16:31). Come to Him now with all your sins and wickedness, with all your doubts and fears—with all your feelings of unfitness and unworthiness, and He will not cast you out, nor refuse you. He has said it. He will stand to it. He never breaks His word.
Because the sinless Savior died,
My sinful soul is counted free;
For God the Just is satisfied,
To look on Him and pardon me.
