Come to Jesus.

By Almon Bisbee

WHAT a blessed thought that the door of mercy is still open for us! That Jesus stands beckoning for us to enter. And will we spurn his offer? Oh, no. Let us hasten at his call, before it is too late, before the door of mercy is forever closed against us. Come sinner, come, come with all your guilt, and open your heart to Jesus. He stands with outstretched arms to receive you and plead your case before the Father. Let us all wake up from our lukewarm state and put on the whole armor of God, and battle for the cause. Every one can do something. The joys of Heaven are worth striving for.

My daily prayer is that the messengers may be raised to health and strength and go throughout the land proclaiming the last message of mercy to a dying world. Time is short here on this sinful earth. The signs are thickening. We shall soon see our blessed Saviour coming in the clouds of heaven, and my prayer is that we may all be ready to meet him, and say, "Lo, this is our God, we have waited for him, and he will save us."
