Simple Faith

One Lord’s day evening, after our Scripture lesson, the simplicity of the Gospel came so sweetly to my soul that I could not help exclaiming to my young pupils,
“You have but to look, dear children, and you are saved! Behold Jesus hanging on the cross! Look and live!”
As I spoke, Laura, a lively, joyous child of about seven years of age, raised her eyes, and, with much earnestness, told me that she had indeed looked with her heart upon Jesus.
Faith is the look of the soul. My little pupil looked upon God’s sacrifice, and the most eminent of saints have done no more to obtain life; for,
“As Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up: that whosoever bieveth in Him should not perish, but have eternal life.” John 3:14,1514And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up: 15That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life. (John 3:14‑15).
