You May Be Saved

WHY? BECAUSE JESUS HAS DIED AND RISEN AGAIN. Upon this ground you may be saved, and upon no other. If you are to be saved, your sin's heavy load must be removed. If sin's heavy load must be removed, sin's penalty must be borne. If sin's penalty must be borne, then Jesus must die; for sin's penalty is death. You could not bear that, you would miserably perish. Said the apostle: " Your sins are forgiven you "not for your work's sake-not for your morality's sake-bur " for His Name's sake " (1 John 2. 12).
WHERE? The answer is simple. ANYWHERE. Mercy flows o-day-not through some shrine in a holy city, nor through the finger tips of some holy hands, but from a victorious and ascended Christ in heaven. He is accessible anywhere. Touch Him, in other words, believe on Him, and you shall be saved.
HOW? BY FAITH, and by faith alone. Scripture is conclusive upon this point. Salvation is not by works, nor by faith and works combined, but by faith alone. " Not of works, lest any man should boast " (Eph. 2. 9).
WHEN? There is but one wise answer: NOW. Beware lest you lose your soul over the little question when I " Behold, NOW is the accepted time: behold, NOW is the day of salvation" (2 Cor. 6. 2). Come to Jesus-JUST NOW.
