From:
The Evangelist: Volume 2 (1868)
How blessedly simple is the gospel of the grace of God! It addresses itself only to those who are lost, and who know it. The burden of its message to such is, “Come; for all things are now ready.” (
Luke 14:17
17
And sent his servant at supper time to say to them that were bidden, Come; for all things are now ready. (Luke 14:17)
.)
The
question
of sin is not raised at all; for
that
HAS BEEN gone into and settled by and between God Himself and His dear Son, who “appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of Himself” (
Hebrews 9:26
26
For then must he often have suffered since the foundation of the world: but now once in the end of the world hath he appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself. (Hebrews 9:26)
), and whose resurrection from amongst the dead is intended by God to convey the assurance that He is perfectly satisfied with the price that the Divine Surety paid for us. Hence, God being quite satisfied, the ONLY question between you, my reader, and the Almighty God is this,
“Are
you
quite satisfied with His Christ as the ALONE trust and portion of your soul?”
This is the one and only question to which the Holy Ghost is now waiting to hear your reply (see
Romans 10:10
10
For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. (Romans 10:10)
), because the Lord from heaven, “the man Christ Jesus” (
1 Timothy 2:5
5
For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus; (1 Timothy 2:5)
), has, by His own shed blood, settled every other, to the everlasting glory of God through us (
2 Corinthians 1:20,
20
For all the promises of God in him are yea, and in him Amen, unto the glory of God by us. (2 Corinthians 1:20)
Greek), who receive Him by living faith into our hearts. (See all the epistles.)
NOTE. ―Whenever
such
is the case, and the work REAL, the life will speak for itself, without the aid of the lips or the constraint of the law.
