GOOD NEWS!



Weekend Gospel message to follow for All Hands (24-26APR20)

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 our sins and from Hell:

CHRIST IS THE WAY
Our Lord declared, "I am the way; no man cometh to the Father but by Me"! The scriptures plainly set forth the fact that because of our sin, we are separated from God and, of ourselves, there is NO WAY BACK TO GOD! The Lord taught this to Adam early; for when He "drove out the man, He placed a flaming sword WHICH TURNED EVERY WAY, to keep the way of the tree of life" [GENESIS 3:24]. There is no way back to life. But Christ, our Lord, has come to bring us to God. How shall He (as the God-man) deal with that sword of wrath and justice? Shall He command it to disappear? Shall He find a way around it? No! He will be the "'just God and Saviour" and take that sword into His own heart and pour out His soul unto death to bring many to God.

The way to God is opened, for CHRIST IS THE WAY! God taught Israel the impossibility of any man's coming to Him apart from Christ when He revealed His glory upon the mercy-seat in the Holy of Holies and forbade any man to enter except the High Priest once a year with the blood atonement. But Christ has come to bring us to God, "not with the blood of bulls and goats, but with His own blood He entered once into the holy place and obtained eternal redemption for us." Now the veil is rent, the way is opened, and we are commanded to come boldly into His presence by CHRIST, THE WAY!
