Weekend
Gospel message to follow for All Hands (11-13OCT19)
Heads-Up --- Please find enclosed encouragement in SO GREAT SALVATION by the perfect and finished work of our Lord Jesus Christ in saving poor, needy and wretched sinners by His sovereign free grace -God's unmerited favor- from their sins and from Hell:
"There
was not a speck of sin on the conscience, nor a principle of sin in
the nature of His people for which Christ was not judged on the
cross; and they are now looked upon as having died with Christ, lain
in the grave with Christ, been raised with Christ, perfectly accepted
in Him - their sins, their iniquities, their transgressions, their
enmity, their uncircumcision, having been entirely put away by the
cross. The sentence of death has been written on the flesh; but the
believer is in possession of a new life, in union with his risen Head
in glory.
What rest - perfect rest - for the heart and conscience is here! What full relief for the burdened spirit! All our sins buried in the grave of Christ, not one - even the smallest - left out! God did this for us! All that His searching eye could detect in us, He laid on the head of Christ when He hung upon His cross! He judged Him there and then, instead of judging us in hell forever."
