On my way to a meeting-room where the gospel has often been preached and many precious souls have been saved, I met an old countryman one afternoon this summer. He was leading a pet lamb by a string. At the side of the road there was a wide strip of grass on which the lamb was feeding.
An irresistible desire to speak to the old man led me to ask if he had beheld the Lamb of God.
"I have," replied the dear old man as tears filled the faded blue eyes.
"Have you looked upon Jesus dying on Calvary's cross as God's sacrifice for your sins? Is He your Savior?"
"Yes," he replied; "I believe, and He has borne my sins all away."
And now, dear reader, if you were asked if you had beheld the Lamb of God, what would you say? Could you answer as simply as the old man? The Scripture says:
"Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world." Behold Him, game upon Him, worship and adore Him! "He is altogether lovely."
