Whomsoever

A MESSENGER came to a Sunday School superintendent and said, “Hasten as quickly as you can, there’s a boy in a garret wanting to see you. He is dying.” The superintendent hastened, to the place, and found, lying on a heap of straw, a boy who had been crushed by a cart.
As he entered the lad quickly said, “Didn’t I hear you say the other Sunday, that whomsoever a fellow comes to Jesus, he would be saved’?”
“Yes,” replied the visitor, “I said something like that.” “Well,” said the boy, “then I am saved. I have been a bad boy, but I’ve been thinking about that, and I have taken God at His word, so I’m saved.” After he had uttered these words his strength seemed to fail, and a few minutes after passed away, his last words being, “Whomsoever a fellow comes to Jesus, He will in no wise cast out.”
He did not quote the words exactly, but he had grasped the meaning of them, and believed them too. (John 3:16,16For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. (John 3:16) and 6:37.)
“God so loveth the world, that He gave His only begotten son, that whosoever, believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.”
“Him that cometh to Mc I will in no wise cast out.”
