Let us bless God that we have such a glorious salvation set before us. Our plea must ever be, not that we are deserving of acquittal, but that Christ has died for us. Let us take heed, that having so great a salvation we really make use of it for our own souls. May we never rest till we can say by faith, " Christ is mine. I deserve hell. But Christ has died for me, and believing in Him I have a hope of heaven."
