God Is Satisfied With Jesus.

Why Not You?
IF a friend should say, “That ice will bear your weight,” to walk upon it without hesitation is to prove that I am satisfied with his word: I have faith in it, as well as in his word about it. It was the knowledge of my friend’s confidence in it that gave me to trust it. God has proved His satisfaction in the sacrifice and death of the blessed, holy Substitute, by which the punishment that we deserved was endured and exhausted. He raised Jesus from the dead and seated Him at His Own right hand. The writer well remembers what an earnest servant of God once told him. He said the great question for an anxious soul to ask is, WHERE IS JESUS Now? When the Lord Jesus “ascended up on high,” He assuredly did not take with Him the sins He bore on the cross. Let the troubled one not be thinking of his faith or his feelings, but of God’s love Who provided the Saviour and the work of Christ whereby peace was made for all who feel their need of Him. Through His death and resurrection, all that believe are justified from all things (Acts 13:38, 3938Be it known unto you therefore, men and brethren, that through this man is preached unto you the forgiveness of sins: 39And by him all that believe are justified from all things, from which ye could not be justified by the law of Moses. (Acts 13:38‑39)). If God is satisfied, why should it not be your happy privilege to say, “I am satisfied as well.” A. H. L.
