- M
in the Bible, or out of it, than
our Lords repeated warnings
that many persons will meet
with an awful disappointment
after this life is over. They will find
that they have been living in a false
security, because they did not seek to
know and do what God required Of
them, but only to follow out their own
ideas as to what is right and proper.
There are lots Of w~ell-meaning, and in
many ways well-doing, persons in the
world today who have never acknowl-
edged even to themselves the sinful
ness of their own hearts and their
need of Christ as a Saviour from sin.
and who reject either with indiffer-
ence or with disdain the atonement
for sin which was provided at the cost
OF SO awful a sacrifice on Gods part.
What right have such persons to ex-
pect favor or forgiveness from God
after they have deliberately refused to
avail themselves of his offer of mercy
an and through Christ?
Y must be born again." Jesus
said. "That which is born of the flesh
Is flesh. and that which is born of the
Spirit is spirit"
The New Testament teaches very
plainly and in very many different
form Of expression that man can
not be saved by his own goodness, but
only through the atonement for sin
made by God himself in the person of
his son, and that therefore all true
righteousness begins with faith in
Christ; that Is with the acceptance by
us Of Gods offer of mercy through
Christ.
Loving and Serving.
True faith in Christ will impel us to
love him, and true love for Christ will
impel US to serve him. Faith that
does not lead to loving service is
therefore not true faith. AS James
says, that sort of faith 'is dead In
ITSELF" But good works that are not
born of faith and love and obedience
are not good at all in Gods sight.
This is the work of God" Jesus said.
that ye believe on him whom he hath
sent" In other words, submission to
the will of God by acceptance of Gods
terms and receiving pardon as a free
gift In Christ's name Is the beginning
OF a right relation between the sinner
and God. And no man can please God
until he has placed himself in a right
attitude toward God.
Many will say to me In that day,
Lord. Lord, ded We not prophesy by
thy name, and by thy name cast out
devils, and by thy name do many
mighty works? And then will / pro-
fess unto them. 1 never knew you:
depart from me, ye that work inquiry"
Over and again, Jesus repeated the
warning that many who thought while
on earth that they were living right
and ven doing special work for him
will be %grievously disappointed in the
end.
How is 1t with US individually? Have
we each made our peace with God in
Christ, and accepted Christ as our
Saviour from sin itself as we'll as
from the condemnation due to US for
sin? Or, are We preparing for our
selves the disappointment of finding
when 1t is too late that we have been
trusting in a false idea.
