"It's no use, and I won't try anymore!”
"Thank God for that! You are wise to cease trying. Just you take God's way, and believe; you know what the Lord says about that, `He that believeth on Me hath everlasting life.' " John 6:47.
"But I do believe, yet I'm no better!" "Does that verse speak of being better?" "No! but surely I must be different.”
"What does the verse say?”
"'He that believeth on Me'—.”
"Stop there one moment! Do you believe on Him—Jesus, the Son of God?”
"I do! I know He died for me!”
"Very well, then, go on with the verse." "`Hath everlasting life.'”
"What does the believer have?”
"Everlasting life.”
"Who has it?”
"He that believeth.”
"And you do really believe in Jesus?”
"Yes, I do.”
"And you have-?”
"O but it isn't like that, is it?”
"And you have—? Come, now!
Tell me; what does Jesus say you have?”
"Everlasting life! Dear me! how stupid I've been! Why, He says I have it, and surely that's enough. I see it all now. It is His work on the cross that makes me safe, and His Word makes me sure!”
"Yes! that is God's way of salvation."
