Earnestness in Seeking Christ

By Rev. J. Wilbur Chapman

THERE is “one thing” which stands in the way of many a one's salvation, and that is lack of earnestness in their search for Christ. God was very much in earnest when he gave his Son to be the Saviour, and Christ was very much in earnest when he died on the cross; and the earnest Saviour and sinner will very soon meet. We are very earnest when seeking a fortune, and when we must work to save our lives; when we seek salvation in such a way, it will soon be found. For it is said: “Ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart.”—Rev. J. Wilbur Chapman.
