Dear young Christian, have you known the joy of turning from yourself and doings, to One who has done a God-glorifying, soul-saving work, and is now in resurrection life and glory? It is in resurrection that He declares the value of His work, and makes good the word, “Peace be unto you.” Can you then question the efficacy and perfectness of His blessed work, or doubt His precious word? “The Lord is risen indeed,” is surely a word sufficient, in the power of which you may bid farewell to doubts, perplexities, and fears. “Then were the disciples glad when they saw the Lord”; enough; joy and gladness filled the hearts of that sorrowing company as they gazed upon their risen Lord; “and He showed them His hands and His side.” Blessed tokens of accomplished redemption!
