Part 9

Here is the sovereign remedy, for every poor broken-hearted, conscience-smitten, hell-deserving sinner--for every one who owns himself lost--who confesses his sins, and judges himself--for every weary, heavy-laden, sin-burdened soul--here is God's own blessed promise: Jesus died, that you might live. He was condemned, that you might be justified. He drank the cup of wrath, that you might drink the cup of salvation. Behold Him hanging on yonder cross for thee. See what He did for thee. Believe that He satisfied, on your behalf, _all_ the claims of justice before the throne of God. See all your sins laid on Him--your guilt imputed to Him--your entire condition represented and disposed of by Him. See His atoning death answering perfectly for all that was or ever could be brought against you. See Him rising from the dead, having accomplished all. See Him ascending into the heavens, bearing in His divine Person the marks of His finished atonement. See Him seated on the throne of God, in the very highest place of power. See Him crowned with glory and honor. Believe in Him, and you will receive remission of sins, the gift of eternal life, the seal of the Holy Ghost. You will pass off the platform of nature--you will be "_A man in Christ_."
