"Salvation is of the LORD." -Jonah 2:9

There is but One whose blood Can cleanse our sinfulness And make us holy before God The L ORD our righteousness . There is but One approved; And all in Him are blessed.

I do not and cannot build my faith on anything but what is revealed in the Bible; and I must do it because I have no other foothold for it to stand upon. Do you not feel the same, you who know anything of the trial of faith? You have had many a tossing up and down, and have often wanted a foothold for your faith to stand upon.
