No. Can promises of amendment make a blank page where there are so many blots and blurs? Ah, no! Nothing that we can do can put away our sins. But may not the future atone? May not future zeal wipe out past carelessness? May not the endeavor of our life that is yet to come, make amends for the indolence or vice of the life that is past? No. The blood of our brethren has been shed, and we cannot gather it up. The mischief we have done is not to be retrieved! O God! souls that are lost through us cannot be saved now; the gates of hell are so shut that they can never be opened. No restitution can we make. The redemption of the soul is precious, and it ceases forever; the sin is not to be washed away by repentance, nor retrieved by reformation. What then? Hopeless despair for every one of us, were it not that there is another blood, the blood of One called Jesus, that cries from the ground too, and the voice of that blood is "Father, forgive them; Father, forgive them." I hear a voice that says, "Vengeance, vengeance, vengeance," like the voice of Jonah in Nineveh, enough to make every man clothe himself in sackcloth. But a sweeter and a louder cry comes up — "Mercy, mercy, mercy;" and the Father bows His head and says, "Whose blood is that?" and the voice replies, "It is the blood of Your only-begotten, shed on Calvary for sin." The Father lays His thunders by, sheathes His sword, stretches out His hand, and cries to you, the sons of men, "Come unto Me, and I will have mercy upon you; turn you, turn you; I will pour out My Spirit upon you and you shall live." "Repent and believe the Gospel." Hate the sin that is past, and, trust in Jesus for the future. He is able to save to the uttermost all that come unto God by Him; for the blood of Jesus Christ, God's dear Son, cleanses us from all sin. Flee, sinner, flee! The avenger of the blood that you have shed pursues you with hot haste; with feet that are winged, with a heart that is athirst for blood, he pursues you. Run, man, run! The refuge city is before you. It is there along the narrow way of faith. Fly, fly, for unless you reach that city ere he overtakes you he shall smite you, and one blow shall be your everlasting ruin. For God's sake do not loiter! Those flowers on the left-hand side — care not for them; you will dye that field with your blood if you linger there! That ale-house on the right hand? Stay for none of these things, He comes! Hark to his footsteps on the hard highway! He comes, he comes, he comes now! Oh, that now you may pass the portals of the refuge city! Trust the Son of God, and sin is forgiven, and you have entered into everlasting life. #Outreach: That the world may know #Prayer Focus: Pray for Our Prodigals Praise the Lord Please follow my blog Guam Christian Blog Please follow my blog Guam Views Blog Podcast: https://anchor.fm/bruce-dinsman Bruce's Facebook https://www.facebook.com/bruce.dinsman Featured book: https://www.amazon.com/Daily-Service-4-Bruce-Dinsman-ebook/dp/B07W64BCD1  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dinsmanbruce/ Younow: https://www.younow.com/BruceDinsman Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/bdinsman/pin #Parler #ParlerUS @pacislappraisal | | | |
