The Universal Saviour


Read Tx. 3:1-6. Text: as. And
all flesh shall see the salvation of
God.
MEDITATION.-Sa through
Christ for all men This is the hope
of the world. Every fulhilment of
a promise of Sod is the pledge Of
one to come" The good promises Of
the Gospel are never revoked. They
are like springs or the dusty way.
The saving of one soul through
Christ is a promise of universal sal
walton. Christ's spirit is in the
world, mans wilfulness alone stays
the coming of the Kingdom.
"'And The life was the light of
men, And what did he not light
up? HIS amazing rays streamed
down the darkest ways of men and
iIlumined the vast somber chambers
of human circumstances. He lit up
sin and showed it's true color. He
lit up sorrow and TRANSPORTED 1t.
He lit up duty and gave it a new
face. He lit up common work and
glorified 1t. He lit up death and we
could see through 1t. But above all,
he lit up God. and The people that
sat in darkness saw a great light. "
PRAYER-Almighty God, thy love
Is our hope; thy Christ our saliva
ton. Help thou our faith and teach
us to pray as one great fellowship
of believers. May our weaknesses
be perfected in thy strength. Amen.
