I expect that each reader of this little paper has many times heard of the Blessed Lord Jesus, and listened with delight to the sweet story of His lowly birth in a manger at Bethlehem. I wonder if you can tell what the word Jesus, means? Perhaps you do not know, so I will tell you. The word Jesus, means Saviour. Now open your bible, and turn to Matt. 1:2121And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins. (Matthew 1:21) and see if it does not say “thou shalt call His name Jesus: for He shall save His people from their sins.” Did you ever think quietly about this? What do you learn from this verse? Let me tell you what God wants you to learn. He wants you to learn that He sent Jesus for you, to save you from your sins. Have you ever felt your sins? If you have been unable to feel them, God knows them, they have wounded His heart, but in spite of it all, He loved you so much as to give His only Son to die for you, for Jesus must die in order to be a Saviour. So God has sent His Son, Jesus, to be a Saviour of sinners, and now let me ask you, —Is He your Saviour? For what good does it do you to know that Jesus is A Saviour, if you do not know He is your Saviour? May God cause you to feel your need of Him. F. E. H.
