An officer was converted by hearing a cobbler preaching in the street. Standing at a distance, he heard him say, "Christ did not come to mend old shoes, but to give new ones." He went away and thought of that saying. It awakened him to see that his own righteousness could not avail.
Christ did not come to mend old garments, but to give us new suits from top to toe.
We will never put patches on ours then, but wear the best robe which He bestows.
JESUS SAID, “I AM
THE RESURRECTION,
AND THE LIFE:
HE THAT BELIEVETH
IN ME, THOUGH
HE WERE DEAD, YET
SHALL HE LIVE ...
BELIEVEST THOU THIS?”
