The parts are scattered all around you—nuts, bolts, gears, wheels—and, screwdriver and wrench in hand, you are hard at work putting it all together. It looked simple. "A child can do it," the advertisement said, but you have been working so long and it still won't run—it wobbles here—there's something missing there—there's no place to put this part. What can you do?
Well—when all else fails, read the instructions!
Read them carefully. Follow them, step by step. Connect part A to part B, B to C, and when every part is in its proper place, installed in correct order, what happens? It works. It works!
Is your life like that? Is it "all in pieces" around you? Does it seem that "nothing goes right"? It is time to read the instructions!
Just as no reputable manufacturer would ship out his product without instructions, so God would never have left man to guess and fumble and to try to put his life together as best he could. He gives us clear instructions!
When that is understood and accepted we can go on to B: "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).
Isn't it simple? Isn't it easy? And it works—it works!
Millions have followed from A to B to C. Millions have proved that the promise is sure, that the instructions are good, that they work. Why not you?
