look at Jesus; for He and He only is
“the Son of Man.” For whom He
came? The lost! No hopeless cases
then. For what did He come? “To
seek”—a world of meaning in that,.
and “to save”—a great meaning in
that also. A man must take his place
as lost before Jesus can save. And
he that desires to give proof of his
being a believer, should walk the
narrow way, renounce the sins which
have formerly most easily beset him.
The man that professes to know
Christ and trust Him, yet cleaves to
the world and sin, is going down to
hell with a lie in his right hand. The
heart that has really tasted the grace
of God will instinctively hate sin and
will have for the heart cry—^‘What
shall I render to the Lord for all His
benefits? ”—Selected.
