A young servant, was converted at a gospel meeting and became quite changed; her face would shine, and it became quite a pleasure to see her at the meetings. One day her mistress was asked, “Do you believe your servant is a Christian?”
The answer was, “Well, she looks like a Christian, she acts like a Christian; and she says that she is a Christian; so I think we must believe that she is a Christian.”
No works and deeds of merit are necessary to have everlasting life, for the Bible tells us it is “not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to His mercy He saved us.” Tit. 3:55Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost; (Titus 3:5). All who come to the Lord Jesus as poor sinners and receive His gift of eternal life through His blood shed on Calvary are born again.
