"That's the Man, for Me."

Narrator: Chris Genthree
Listen from:
A christian man sat in an outbound train from the city, when a young lady entered, singing a popular song, the words of which were all about a man, the song describing the character the man must be—he must be kind, he must be handsome, he must be rich, he must be loving, etc., every verse ending with the words,
“And that’s the man for me.”
The Christian listened until she had finished, and then asked, “
Well, have you found that man yet?” to which she replied,
“No, I’m afraid they’re few and far between.”
“I know a Man who answers in every respect to what you have been singing about. I was speaking to Him this morng, and moreover, He has an interest in you; in fact He loves you.”
“Loves me?” she inquired,
“Yes, loves you.”
Her curiosity being aroused, she asked,
“Well, what’s his name?”
“His Name is Jesus,” replied the Christian, to which nothing more was said, the girl sitting quietly till the end of her journey, which was one stop before the Christian’s. When the train came to a stop, she arose and went out. As she was closing the door she gently said,
“And that’s the Man for me.”
Permit me to tell you of “a Man” who has an interest in you; in fact He loves you. He loved you so much as to die on Calvary’s Cross in order to purchase and procure both Salvation and Forgiveness of sins for you. Listen to the words concerning Him,
“Be it known unto you... that through this Man is preached unto you the forgiveness of sins.” Acts 13:3838Be it known unto you therefore, men and brethren, that through this man is preached unto you the forgiveness of sins: (Acts 13:38).
You need forgiveness, because by birth, and practice, you are a sinner. If you die unforgiven, your eternal portion will be outside Heaven’s glory.
Do take the Lord Jesus Christ as your Saviour, and take Him NOW.
“He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon Him; and with His stripes we are healed.” Isa. 53:55But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed. (Isaiah 53:5).
“Whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.” Rev. 20:1515And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire. (Revelation 20:15).
