Christ's Blood Is The Great Sovereign Remedy

It Is Often Those Who Are Despised And Trampled On That Bear Up The Weight Of A Whole Nation.

When Someone Sets His Affections Upon The Cross And The Love Of Christ, He Crucifies The World As A Dead And Undesirable Thing. The Baits Of Sin Lose Their Attraction And Disappear. Fill Your Affections With The Cross Of Christ And You Will Find No Room For Sin.

Did You Never Run For Shelter In A Storm, And Find Fruit Which You Expected Not? Did You Never Go To God For Safeguard, Driven By Outward Storms, And There Find Unexpected Fruit?

For A Man Solemnly To Undertake The Interpretation Of Any Portion Of Scripture Without Invocation Of God, To Be Taught And Instructed By His Spirit, Is A High Provocation Of Him; Nor Shall I Expect The Discovery Of Truth From Any One Who Thus Proudly Engages In A Work So Much Beyond His Ability.

To Believe That He Will Preserve Us Is, Indeed, A Means Of Preservation. God Will Certainly Preserve Us, And Make A Way Of Escape For Us Out Of The Temptation, Should We Fall. We Are To Pray For What God Has Already Promised. Our Requests Are To Be Regulated By His Promises And Commands. Faith Embraces The Promises And So Finds Relief.
