"Seek ye the LORD while He may be found, call ye upon Him
while He is near" -Isaiah 55:6
[KJV]
Heads-up neighbors --- 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. For your serious and prayerful consideration:
"When a man is soundly killed to all his sins, to all his righteousness, to all his comforts whatsoever; and sees that there is no way but the devil must have him, but he must be damned in Hell, if he be not clothed with Jesus Christ; "O! then, (says he) give me Christ on any terms, whatsoever He cost; though He cost me friends, though He cost me comforts, though He cost me all that ever I have!" Like the wise merchant in the Gospel, they will sell all to get that pearl (Matthew 13:46). I tell you, when a soul is brought to see its want of Christ aright, it will not be kept back; father, mother, husband, wife, lands, livings, nay life and all shall go, rather than the soul will miss of Christ...
"Now, Lord, GIVE ME CHRIST, upon any terms, whatsoever He cost; for I am a dead man, a damned man, a castaway, IF I HAVE NOT CHRIST." What say you, O wounded sinners? Is not this true, as I have said? Would you not give ten thousand worlds, if you had so many, so you might be well assured that your sins shall be pardoned, and your souls and bodies justified and glorified, at the coming of Jesus Christ?"
