Neighbors, Flee Today to Christ JESUS, "The LORD our Righteousness!"

  "Riches profit not in the day of wrath: but righteousness delivereth from death. The righteousness of the perfect shall direct his way: but the wicked shall fall by his own wickedness. The righteousness of the upright shall deliver them: but transgressors shall be taken in their own naughtiness." -Proverbs 11:4-6 [KJV] "Look unto Me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth: for I am God, and there is none else.

And if it be worthy of all acceptation, it must be eminently so of thine; for thou hast been a transgressor from the womb. But did Jesus indeed come to save sinners? Yes, so the proclamation runs. Sinners, enemies to God. Jesus, it is said, "received gifts for the rebellious, that the Lord God might dwell among them;" and with that tenderness which distinguished His character, He said Himself, that He "came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance." Well, then, my soul, upon this warrant of the faithful word of a faithful God, wilt thou not so fully rely as to believe unto salvation? If any inquiries arise contrary to this belief, let this be t...
