' Easter Sunday.
' . Friends, while celebrating the
time we keep in memofy of the
resurrection of Christ, study your
Bible with me to see if we thor
oughly appreciate His life; His
death, His ressurection and as-
rcention.
-We see. that Jesus has borne
our sins in His own body on xthe
cross. All we like 'sheen- have
one astray; we have turned ev
ery one to his own way; and the
Lord hath laid on Himi the iniqui
ty of us all." Is 5:3-6.
V The; first - half of this verse
shows us our ned 'hf salvation,
the second, the provision God has
made, for it. Have we gone as
tray like a sheep? Have we
turned to our own way? If we
have and have not repented, what
are we? Look at tlie provision
God-has made for our salvation.
Who is the one in this verse upon
whom our iniquity has been laid?
What then has Gocf done with
bur sin? Is it any longer on us?
Jesus is a risen Savior, able to
save to the uttermost. In belie v-1
ing in Jesus as a sin-bearer one
merely gets pardon from sin,
there is something else needed--
we must have deliverance from
.sin's power this we can get by
believing in the risen Christ.
'Wherefore He is able to save
them to the uttermost that come
unto God by Him, seeing He ever
liveth to make intercession ' for
them.5' Heb. 7-25.
To what extent is Christ able to
save ? -Why is it that Jesus Christ
i fi hi A t.fv. enf Pi to thi ntformncl--?
can look day by da,y for victory
Over sin ? It is, not enough to
know Jesus as a risen savior, we
must know him as Lord also.
Therefore let all the house of
Israel know assuredly, that God
hath made that same Jesus, whom
ye have crucified, both Lord and
Christ." Acts 2-36.
What has God made Jesus?
Are we willing to accept Him as
our Divine Lord, the o.ne to whom
we'll surrender our heart, every
thought word and act. No con
version is clear and satisfactory
until one has been led to con fess
Christ before the world.
"That if thou shalt confess with
thy mouth the ' Lord Jesus, .'and
shalt believe in thine heart that
God has raised him from the dead,
thou shalt be saved. For with
the heart man believeth unto
righteousness, and with the mouth
confessionJs made into salvation."
Rom. 10-9,10. v .
It is not enough that one should
be saved, one ought' to have the
assurance that he is saved, 'and be
able to say confidently and joyous
ly, I know I am saved, I know I
have everlasting life. "He that
believeth on the Son hath ever
lasting life, and he that, believeth
not the Son, shall not see life, but
the wrath of God abidethonhim."
To accept Christ is not enough,
ne must know how to live a chris
tian life; There are six very sim:
pie things to make a christian life
a success, s Confess Christ as your
sin-bearer, risen Savior and Lord.
"Whosoever, therefore; shall
confess me before men, him will I
confess also 'before my father,
which is in Heaven 'J. Mat; 10-32.
Study the word of .God regalarr
ly and hide it in you r heart. Thy
word have I hid in m.y, hearth that
I might iiot ' sin against ; thee. V
