The Lord Jesus Christ -Justifies, Sanctifies & Eternally Saves His People
“A
GRAIN OF SAVING FAITH is better than a ton of gold, for it secures an
inheritance in all the unsearchable riches of Christ, of grace, and
of glory! It justifies, sanctifies, and eternally saves!
Learn to think less and less of the wealth of this world, and more and more of the unsearchable riches of Christ! Lower the estimate which pride and vanity form of the importance of worldly distinctions. How dim, how worthless, does everything earthly appear when seen in the sunlight of the cross!
It is by losing sight of Jesus, by living so far from Him, by forgetting Him--that we let the world get so much the upper hand of us. We must meditate more upon the cross. We must dwell more upon Calvary. We must be more familiar with the crucified One.”
