"Is the Link on?"

Narrator: Chris Genthree
Listen from:
I suppose most of our little readers have watched a brakeman fastening a number of cars to an engine. There is a link that joins them one to the other, and to the engine, and when that is done the whole train can be moved. What is it that does all the work? The engine. And when the link is on the engine will convey the train to its destination. This reminds me of the believer being linked to Christ in glory. Just as the engine does all the work, and by its strength conveys all the carriages to their destination, so surely has Christ done all the work for the salvation of our souls, and all who believe on Him are connected with Him, and He will carry them safe to glory. “He that believeth on the Son HATH everlasting life” John 3:3636He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him. (John 3:36), and God’s HATH never has, and never can fail. The link that holds the believer to Christ never will break. Then let me ask each reader of these lines, are you connected with Christ in glory?
