Let Us Come Boldly

WHERE? to the priest? to the bishop? to the pastor? — Nay, but to the Throne of Grace. And what for? to be told to go to the priest or the “church” for absolution? — Nay, but “that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.” Heb. 4:16. Let us come boldly to the Throne of Grace where sits the Lord Jesus Christ on the right hand of the Father, a merciful and faithful High Priest on our behalf. The business of pastor or priest is to introduce, lead, point, the sinner to Christ; not to tell Christ that the sinner deserves mercy because he has been thus brought, or for any other reason, the Lord knows all that; but to tell the sinner that all mercy and life and blessing and healing are found in Jesus Christ.
