Just Anybody

By G. B. T.

“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.”

“Whosoever believeth in him.” Whosoever means anybody. I can come; you can come; everybody can come. No matter how crimson the stain of sin, it can become as white as snow. Sins of the darkest hue can be made white. It was for this very purpose that Jesus died and rose again. Those sins which trouble you, and haunt you with a dread lest God will not forgive, for these Jesus died. Believe God; you are made righteous by faith. There is no sin of such awful turpitude that the blood of Jesus will not atone for it if you will confess and forsake it, and believe what Jesus says. The doubts which come into your mind are from Satan himself.

“Whosoever is a wonderful word. “Whosoever will, may come.” This is better than if your own name were in the Bible. You could not be absolutely sure the name was yours. It might be some one's else. But “whosoever” means you. You can have pardon; you can come to Christ; you can drink freely of the water of life; you can be saved today; you can sit with Jesus on his throne; you can have immortality and live with Jesus through eternal ages. Believe, and let the peace of God come into your heart. G. B. T.
